Backstory
Born in the fiery chaos of a ‘90s card show bargain bin, Ripster was stitched together by the frustration of junk wax collectors and fueled by the dreams of pulling grails. With cards crammed in his head and a bat always at the ready, he’s got no patience for flippers, fakes, or Fanatics' lawsuits.
He spends his days chasing hits, calling out hobby drama, and roasting overpriced breaks with the energy of a thousand PSA 10 Charizards. Whether you’re slabbing base cards or hunting for a 1/1 Mantle, Ripster’s got your back—as long as you’re in it for the love of the game.
