# Strong Energy #115/124 — Fates Collide

## Summary

Strong Energy was a Special Energy that gave Fighting decks a flat damage boost, which made it a real tool for players in its format and a quiet one in the bulk bins. As an uncommon utility card with 5ban Graphics credited, it draws playable-copy demand rather than collector chasing. A $0.79 modelled guide, down 10% over 30 days on 10 copies traded, says bulk, with only 15 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: a PSA 10 guides at $39, 50 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
