What does the Sabo EB04 card do?

The Sabo card is a 6-cost Black Character with a conditional cost reduction and [Blocker]. Its printed effect has two parts, taken from the official card list.

  • Cost reduction: if you have 15 or more cards in your trash, give this card in your hand −3 cost. A 6-cost card then costs 3.
  • [Blocker]: after your opponent declares an attack, you may rest this card to make it the new target of the attack.

The first part depends on a trash of 15 or more cards. The second part redirects an attack to this card. The card also prints a counter value of 2000 and power of 6000.

How do you read the Sabo stat line?

Read the stat line left to right: cost, power, counter, color, attribute, type. The table lays out each printed value for Sabo.

Stat Sabo value Note
Cost 6 Printed cost; the effect gives this card −3 cost in hand when you have 15 or more cards in your trash
Power 6000 Printed power
Counter 2000 Printed counter value
Color Black Printed color
Attribute Special Printed attribute
Type Dressrosa/Revolutionary Army Printed type

How does the trash condition shape the card?

The cost reduction only applies once your trash holds 15 or more cards. Until then the card costs its printed 6.

Two points follow from the printed text. First, the −3 applies to the card while it is in your hand, so the discount comes before you play it. Second, [Blocker] works by resting Sabo, so it is the card that becomes the new target of the attack. Which of these matters more depends on your deck, so read the full effect text before you build around the card.

Official notes on the EB-04 page say specifications may change, so check the official card list for the current wording.

What does the PRB02-014 card number mean for Sabo in EB-04?

The official list shows Sabo under the EB-04 series filter with the number PRB02-014, marked as the parallel art version of that card number. Use that number when you search.

The Japanese official list (series 550204) shows the same number, the SP card Sabo, Black, cost 6, power 6000.

The official list also shows a Starter Deck called “Red/Black Sabo” (ST-35). That is a separate product, not an EB-04 card.

How do you check a Sabo EB04 listing?

Check the card number first, then the rarity mark, then the stats. A correct Sabo listing matches the official entry on every point.

  1. Number: PRB02-014.
  2. Rarity: SP CARD, the parallel art version.
  3. Stats: Black, cost 6, power 6000, counter 2000.
  4. Text: the 15-cards-in-trash cost reduction and [Blocker].
  5. Edition: Japanese edition of EB-04.

Do not mix it up with the Starter Deck ST-35 Red/Black Sabo. Official notes say card images may differ from the actual product, so the number and stat line are the safer checks than artwork alone.

Should you buy a box for Sabo, and how does ordering work?

No box guarantees Sabo, because cards are packed at random and individual pulls are not guaranteed. We list two EB-04 box options: the regular EB-04 Egghead Crisis Japanese One Piece Booster Box (update: currently sold out — restock requests via Quick Order) and the Damaged Box. The Damaged Box is discounted for cosmetic damage to the outer box; the cards inside are unaffected. It is sold as-is, and returns and refunds are not accepted. Its photos are samples.

Orders ship from Tokyo by FedEx. The shipping policy lists Standard (International Connect Plus, usually 3-7 business days after dispatch) and Expedited (International Priority, usually 2-5 business days). These are estimates, not guaranteed dates. Most orders are processed within 5 business days after PayPal or Wise payment has cleared, and shipping cost is calculated at checkout. FedEx cannot deliver to P.O. Boxes, so give a physical address. There is no minimum order amount or quantity.

All payments are in Japanese yen. The payment methods page says Wise bank transfer carries no processing fee, while PayPal and card payments (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, JCB, via PayPal) carry a 5% payment processing fee. For Wise, an order without a payment screenshot is cancelled automatically if payment has not arrived within 12 hours. Read both pages for full terms.
