What this means if you are building it

You can own 271 of the 276 priced cards in Paradox Rift for about $913. The median card is $0.18. The remaining $321 sits in just 5 chase cards, and one of them (Groudon - 199/182, $117) is 10% of the entire set on its own. A full set is not one long climb. It is a cheap, fast 74% and then a very short, very expensive tail.
