Human, elf, dwarf, hobbit, goblin, orc, troll, worgs, treefolk, I like how this starter deck includes all the main lotr creatures you'll want. Such a cool starter set!
They did it justice for real. I play exclusively with lotr cards now! Fits right in to the game
honestly both of those decks look like they're playable and dangerous but still really simple. good job wotc and lotr!
Thanks for opening! I wanted to buy it later this week but definitely going to do it.
Wow, both decks do look like fun. Rakdos in this set though is insane.
Boros looking good too.
I bought mine for 18.99 and it's funny how the starter kit as a lot of valuable rare cards that overcome that price 😌✨
Like which ones?
@@mikeystickney1448 sauron, witch king, bilbo's ring and so on, the prices are already changing so it depends. The Bordeless ring from the bundle is now around 50$ but let's see how the prices will remain after the hype dies...
i got mine for 10$ from my lgs
@@tamalesftw sweet, good deal considering the prices increased a bit
I own 3/4 decks and the starter kit.
I haven’t spent this much money on mtg since the Brothers war because I wanted those transformers!!
These cards are awesome and I want to learn to play, but my local game store hasn’t gotten the starter yet. I did get a jumpstart pack from target for some of the cool artwork though! Thanks for the video!
My buddy loves LOTR and Game Of Thrones... This is my chance to get him into Magic! Thanks for the preview.
thanks for review each of the cards !!
Last time I played Mtg was in 01/02 during Odyssey! But I'm a huge Lotr fan soI just picked up this kit for €19. The first store I went it was sold out tho
It's the only product I'm getting, just for the lore and the wallet XD It's great having the main characters and some spotlight moments :D Nice vid! Have a nice day!
I was able to order one! I love the lotr one of my favorite fantasy movies of all time.
I'm picking 1 up from my lgs right after i get off work today
Mines was a factory error ended up getting like 6 of the goblin assailant and like a bunch of the same cards in multiples and missing some cards
Just bought this and itll be here Wednesday, first time ever owning MTG and im excited to get into it
Have fun!
I was debating if I want to buy this just for the LOTR cards. It looks decent
Compared to the cost of everything else this is a cheaper and fun option.
Just bought my son one last night for his "End of school year" gift! 🎉
great father!
I’m gonna pick this up.
I have this Starter Kit, and it is fun. May I ask where to go from here? What LOTR booster or package should I buy next?
If you're just after LOTR, the Commander decks are pretty good. Otherwise I'd recommend downloading MTG Arena to play. In paper, MTG Pioneer Challenger decks or any of the regular MTG pre-constructed decks are worthwhile.
Can I ask about the artwork/placemat that you have in the background? Super curious where its from ?
It's the Secret Lair variant artwork for Glissa Sunseeker by Livia Prima.
@@MTGUnpacked I found it! The artwork is amazing, thank you so much for sharing:)
Brand new to MTG but massive LOTR fan I own this starter pack but don’t know where to go from here as there are so many different packs for cards. Can I just buy booster packs and add them to these decks?
That's the most expensive way to go! I suggest first playing with a bunch of decks on MTG Arena to get familiar with how they play. You can also get Starter Commander decks and Pioneer decks in paper, but both of those formats are more complicated than Standard. Check out the competitive decks (and others) on mtggoldfish.com and if you find something you like, you can buy individual cards from local game stores or online via sites like tcgplayer.com
Would be nice if the decks actually had some more tokens.
It’s possible to create a deck mixing this new cards from LOTR with normal ones?
Absolutely! Though these cards are only legal in a handful of formats (Commander, Modern, etc) and not the Standard format.
Finally! ✌️👏👏
I held off buying this Starter set because the Artwork (although very impressive) resembled virtually nothing I had come to know as LotR from watching the movies so many times over. However, I finally bought a set "on special" just for the "hell of it" and must admit the cards are surprisingly fun and are growing on me. I only play Mtg VERY casually, so this very well priced starter set is ideal.
Interesting. Since I'm interested in this set precisely because it doesn't look like the movies. It feels almost trippy to see lotr in different visual light than through the Jackson films which is how i always primarily knew it.
The art is more based on the books / traditional magic art. It’s Lotr through a magic lens. Took me a second to get use to it not being the actors from the film
Do any of the cards have 'the ring tempts you'
No, I guess they wanted to keep these decks as simple as possible for new players.
Hi there, as a new comer (pure beginner) I am going to but this Starter Kit but you said it can’t be played in Standard Format, can it be upgraded by Booster so it still playable in Standard Format?
No, I don't think any of the cards are Standard-legal, though they're perfectly fine in the Commander format. There's another 2023 MTG starter kit that should be mostly Standard-legal, which I reviewed on the channel here: czcams.com/video/9ZTRFRpdrO0/video.html
This site is good for figuring out what cards are currently Standard-legal: whatsinstandard.com
Oh I got it now… This deck still playable in Modern Format
@@MTGUnpackedthank you for your answer. Happy new year 🎉
i want to use the bad guy deck. i want to buy this product.
The lands aren't the LOTR specific lands?!
They are LotR-specific, but not the full-art Middle Earth map lands, if that's what you mean?
Disappointed they don't have the LOTR maps on, like I've got in boosters.
What does it mean “not legal in standard”?
And why?
Any card not from one of these sets: whatsinstandard.com
It just means you can't play these decks in Standard-format tournaments.
WHERES SAAAAAAM!??!?!
I thought I better watch an unboxing, because I have the starter pack in front of me and I don't see how to open it without damaging the box... but you just ripped it open. :(
They don't make these easy to open without damaging the box!
I was planning to buy all these LOTR decks, but honestly I didn't like the way they went with main characters art.
care to explain?
@@glitchyikesthey made aragorn teferi and it sucks
@@zethrenbeltran4071 you dont like teferi?
And yet no one seems to be noting Magic is MORE faithful to Tolkien with Tom Bombadil, who was omitted completely from the Peter Jackson movies!
@@glitchyikes learn to read. Teferi is a great black character, but making aragorn black sucks, when people are used to his great depiction by viggo. Im asian btw so dont even cite white privilege.
Meh, only Fires of Mount doom its ok 🤷🏻♂️
First
Ah yes another starter product from mtg that doesn't include the tokens needed for the cards played in the decks...
Blackwashing Aragorn? No thanks. You could have had a new customer.
Don’t need nor want customers like you you fool of a took 😂 do you think WizardsOtc really care what you think
soft
Jesus Christ yall are so sensitive.
