That is always a balancing act of trying to find an aesthetically pleasing card you will enjoy while also being able to build somewhat of a collection instead of having just one really good looking card. You need some beaters to build your collection.

With the high prices today, those beaters are becoming more attractive, like when wearing beer goggles...it still gets the job done
