I'm 34 but I know Peter Cushing was the old dalek movie doctor
sadly whatnot does not ship to australia :(
t’s people like you that are the problem with buying this crappy product and supporting wizards of the coast. Stop buying stupid crossover products and promoting it unless you’re just a sellout like wizards is. Do you want cross over and go play Fortnite.
The Doctor's personality and mannerism changes after each regeneration are drastic enough to consider the regenerations as though they are death/reincarnations; most peoples from most of the world through history would identify with Tenants view on the process. Smith's perspective divorces himself from the Doctor he was and viewing The Doctors throughout time as a singular timeless entity is fine from the observers chair but its a viewpoint trivializes and steps on the peoples emotional attachment and connection to specific Doctor incarnations. Jadzia Dax is not Kurzon Dax and Ezre Dax can never hope to be either Kurzon or Jadzia. And it's why Obi Wan Kenobi wasn't lying when he said Vader killed Anakin Skywalker. Smith's interpretation could be used to view all life on Earth through eternity under the umbrella Solaris impact and effect on the universe as all things here were created by and will eventually be reunited with Solaris and will cease to be as it does. And all the children of the big bang will all be reunited eventually when the big bangs black hole recollects everything it once created. Possibly resulting in 2nd bang and repeat for nigh infinity though most probably eventually ending as all perpetual motion machine attempts end 🤡 Being one with the universe and being and existing as a person within the universe are mutually exclusive and no Buddha or Guru yet has opted to stay in Nirvana all come running back to being someone now until death reclaims them for the everything.
And looking at the Doctors generations as individuals would allow me the pleasure of selling out the 13th to Dalek kill squad without feeling like I would be betraying the heroes that were the 1-11th Doctors. And it allows me to condemn the 13ths betrayal of everything The Doctor ever was instead of having to just accept 13's dreck as The Doctors just going through a phase
Like, please try to be immortal so you can wait out these terrible twos type centuries and wait for maturity to catch back up to him👁️🗨️
Only Prof and I could make a box opening an hour and 20 minutes!! Hope you all enjoy 😄
We could have gone on and on and on...
I am so glad that longtime Doctor Who fans worked on this project! You can tell by some of the older iconic episodes referenced. I've been watching Dr. Who since I was a kid (Robot was the first one I saw) so this is a real treat for me! Thank you for your passion and I can't wait to get my cards!
The Prof did such a fantastic job that surely someone as connected as you Gavin could get him an uncut sheet so he could display all those beautiful Sagas and other cards framed on the wall of the college and in the background of all his future videos.
I love seeing you and Brian together, and watching you both geek out over something you are both so emphatically in love with is super fun and extremely wholesome!
Thanks for doing such a great job with this Doctor Who set, Gavin; and thanks for all you do in Magic! It's so nice to see The Prof and you have such a close friendship.❤
The War Doctor maybe should have been Time Lord Warrior. But i understand why hes not for set synergy. But the war doctor isnt a doctor!
I appreciate that they made the Collector Boosters “swag only” for this set. Nice to know I don’t have to rely on them for anything mechanically unique.
This couldn't be said enough!
At the same time it kind of sucks that premium treatment skins from extremely overpriced card game lootboxes built to prey on whales and people with gambling addictions are just something we accept now.
@@ImrahilToChaosI think it's the best possible middle ground here.
@@ImrahilToChaos it's the same idea fundamentally as cosmetics for PvP videogames, they don't affect the play experience in any unique way and are an alternate form of revenue for the company producing them. its a win win for both the company and players because the players can opt out with no downside and the company can make extra money.
@@xtensioncordtv1969 Lootboxes are unregulated gambling and are not a ‘win’ for the consumer ever. Special treatments you can only get via extremely expensive boosters or an inflated secondary market encourage a gambler’s mindset of ‘winning’. For the price that these boosters go for, that’s downright amoral. This was mitigated massively when rare cards only got as hard to get as a rare in packs, but WotC have over the years broken down the barriers bit by bit to monetise whaling. Please stop defending lootboxes.
Prof: I have trouble with my memory
Also Prof: recites the plot, writer, director, actors, and script of every episode of Dr who ever
He does flub saying William Hurt instead of John Hurt.
Yeah, that's ADHD for you. Just gotta love pocket interests.
I'm just happy WotC has decided to work with the Prof in SOME capacity again. Gavin continues to be one of my favorite people there.
I mean, he’s finally falling in line, so why not?
What is "falling in line" to you?
@@TokenBG seems to have done a 180 on his disapproval of UB and the Fortnitification of Magic. And given WotC appears to have reversed his blackballing as a reward, I expect a lot more positivity from him re: UB moving forward.
@@davidgill9463 His opinion on UB has been the exact same. Don't make things up. He never said he hated UB.
@@TokenBG lol I’ve watched his videos since 2019, I know exactly what he’s said about UB, and it’s been overwhelmingly negative except for an admiration of some of the designs
I'm weirdly thrilled that the collector packs are an option with no unqiue cards. If I want the cards, get the decks, and if I want a special version, these are an option.
This is where I hope they push the collectability more and more over time. Make the mechanical cards cheap and easy to obtain, while the "cosmetics" are what you sell to the collectors.
dont blink is THE BEST episode to show someone doctor who for the first time, it is so intriguing and draws you in without the doctor even being present for the most part, after that they always want to watch the show
This is exactly what a set of magic should do to you. This is the best Universes Beyond set, period. The team did an amazing job and Prof did a great job showcasing it.
They’re still making monetised gambling boxes for it, so I’d say that until they stop universes beyond will remain being just another means for GW to whale hunt.
@@ImrahilToChaos I mean they literally stop the idea of gambling when you can just buy the entire deck and all its cards for £45 a pop no gambling needed but if you want to indulge in alt arts and foils for cards you don't normally foil this is great, I feel like you just wanna be so cynical towards WOTC when this is the first time in a long time where a product clearly has lots of passion and design put into it and giving you more options of treatments and foils just buy the single
@@odysseus1828bingo. Very well said
@@odysseus1828 There is no difference between that and normal sets where you can get regular cards without special treatments in regular packs and then get the special treatments much more easily and at greater frequency via the collectors boosters. I’m not being needlessly cynical, you’re just making excuses for 25 dollar+ packs of cards made to prey on those with gambling addictions.
@@ImrahilToChaosthat has been magic since its inception, im not sure how UB changes that part in anyway
I'm not a huge Dr. Who fan, but seeing both of you indulge in the flavour , and visibly enjoy it so much was amazing to watch.
Martha Jones has always been my favorite Companion and I was so scared she wouldn’t get a card. The amount of pure joy when I saw her card I screamed.
I’m incredibly impressed at how well the mechanics of these cards reflect the identities of their subjects. And all while building off of well-established MTG archetypes that will benefit from the support!
I wonder if Spice appreciates the Angels’ library mechanics…
16:47 "The Dæmons", used to drive through that village on the way to my Grandparents' house, so particularly nostalgic for it, thank you for your great work on this! :D
For the Osgood thing, I think it's cool that they brought her back, but also implied that since the whole uprising has happened several times before, you don't actually know if either Osgood is even the original, or if they're just more Zygons taking up her mantle.
Gavin’s presence on these Doctor Who videos has been a real treat. It’s fun to see how excited he is about the ways this set has come together. I can’t wait to try it out!
On an unrelated note, is that a copy of Peter David’s Imzadi novel on the Professor’s shelf? Because that was a great novel.
I was fortunate enough to spend some screen time alongside Sylvester McCoy during filming a dodgy horror film in Cornwall. He was the nicest guy, who was more than willing to let me gush about Doctor Who continuously! And he's always been one of my favorites in the role, ever since I collected and continuously rewatched the VHS tapes back when they were out!
I loved the Roger Delgado Master showcase in the "The Daemons" outfit. Was a good story, one of the Third Doctor's best.
Colin Baker deserved so much more than what he got during his TV run, his audio dramas such as Holy Terror and Jubilee really showed that he could have been a top tier doctor.
Holy Terror is the best! Rob Shearman
Jubilee was one of the first Who audios I listened to and it was amazing. I think I started there because of the first Dalek episode with Rose.
Doctor Who and the Pirates or the lass who lost a sailor has to be my favourite 6th Doctor audio. Colin Baker needs to sing more patter songs.
A lot of passion in this set, and it shows. Great job!
Yeah, if only it was an MTG IP. Clearly WOTC needs a licensing deal to devote this amount of love to a set now.
Right. Same care with the 40k decks. But very disappointed on the commander decks with the standard sets love. I get they can’t put 40 new cards in each deck, but still it’s a big gap.
Yeah, I don't have a lick of knowledge on Doctor Who, never seen it and I don't play Magic, but the passion of these two is so infectious I had to see this after the Shuffle Up & Play episode. Loved the whole hour and twenty of it
I very much love the talk story box openings. It's a very chill time and I appreciate just hanging out and hearing about memories and feelings invoked by this game we love.
It's always such a joy watching people discussing a subject they're genuinely excited about, even when I'm personally barely aware of it. Things like these make me keep on going and following my hobbies even when it feels like no one cares about it. And of course, I'm closer than I've ever been to actually picking up the show. Thank you, gentlemen.
Honestly incredibly impressed with your recall on episodes prof, really fun to watch this.
I preordered one of each of the commander decks and a a box of collector's boosters. Been a huge fan of Doctor Who for the past 19-ish years (I forget exactly when Eccleston began his run). I am excited to see what I get.
I loved that Farewell episode and the card does pull at my heart strings as well. The Four Knocks got me too.
I‘ve never seen a single Doctor Who Episode, but seeing Prof that excited and happy is a real joy.
Also: this has to be WotC‘s most clever move in years. Pulling the largest Magic CZcams Channel and their greatest critic on their side with a collector booster product.
You have to love that Alice Zhang gets her art on Farewell. Her art is so beautiful and I love that the team appreciates it!
WHOO! Another Gavin/Prof collab video! You bounce off each other so well, its always great to watch you two be friends. Thanks for the content ❤❤
Thanks for making such great content. Much appreciated.
My pleasure!
THE DAEMONS is the TARDIS frame Master, Mesmerist. The Dalek Squadron has a gold Dalek, so my guess is Day of or Planet of the Daleks. Thriving Isle is from Peri's last, not first. That's Thoros Beta from 'Mindwarp', parts 5-8 of the Trial of a Time Lord. I believe the fisherman scene from Shada was filmed. This is so fun! Gavin, you did an AMAZING job.
I love just seeing how genuinely happy that both Prof and Gavin are over this set, I appreciate the passion, that's what makes this game. 🙂
I've no knowledge of dr who and I'm not particulary interested in the whovian commander prodcts. But I love to see the love and passion you two have for them. And that makes me appreciate them so much. Thank you two for all that you do. This was a treat 💕
I would love a ten hour version of this in the future as a passionate Who fan myself!
I'm still in the first pack, but my favorite content is when you're excited and geeking out about what you love. I don't even watch the show but I love this so far
This was very touching, on many levels (partly unspoken). also I always tear up with certain Dr.Who stories, this left me with a very warm and fuzzy feeling!
This is a great episode! I love seeing the passion that both The Professor and Gavin have for Dr. Who and seeing them nerd out on that shared love and one something I know nothing about has been a delight.
Loved this as a life long dr who & magic fan, absolutely blows me away to hear that the actors all had to approve their likenesses so they've seen this beautiful art.
I grew up watching Eccleston to Capaldi's run. Doctor Who colliding with a hobby I've recently come to love has been so exciting for me; and seeing Prof's passion for Doctor Who in this video is nothing short of heartwarming. It's clear that a lot of care and passion went into designing the set. While I cant shoot episode names from the hip like Prof., I am nevertheless excited and I cannot wait to be able to play these decks.
This may be my favorite video you have ever made, Prof. Watching you geek out and love the hell out of something was awesome. I hope you get to have a great time with everything this release has to offer.
I love these dives into the cards, and hearing about the episodes. Love ya prof thank you for everything.
Prof, your Dr. Who knowledge blew me away! Thanks for doing this video and revealing the cards and sharing with us your memories of the characters and episodes! This was a long video, but the best pack opening video i've watched to date! Hearing the designer take mingled with some trips down memory lane took me back to the days when Dr. Who was on PBS late at night I couldn't sleep and that show took me to dreamland many times after working nights as a young man!
I have never seen any episode but watched the entire video
It was so much fun to see you both just GUSH over the art and talk about the story and related events
This has certainly convinced me to give the show a try
I'm so, SO, happy that 9 is your favorite. My friends give me grief about Eccleston being my favorite. Absolutely fantastic!
I never got into Dr.Who and basically don´t understand anything you guys are referencing.
BUT you have so much fun opening these cards and talking about the universe, I really want to get into Dr.Who and buy a box of these and when watching be like "it´s this card, what a great design!"
Thank you both for this video, I had a great time! :)
With Gavin as lead-designer you know it´s a good product, for me here are the two biggest pillars of the mtg community.
So happy the prof seems to be getting more recognition from wizards
Your excitements is very contagious. I am excited for this product myself now!
I'm really glad this exists. A full deck is a bit out of my budget at the moment, and this week make buying the handful of singles I want to get a tad easier. (And if I happen to get one for Christmas or something, I can get the alternate frames for my commanders).
Ohh so theyre just alternate treatments? That'll make reading through the over 1000 cards in the set a lot easier!
I honestly dont mind them doing this for future Universes Beyond sets like this. It just gives players more ways to enjoy cards they love.
Yeah everything is in the precons, pretty happy with that decision even if I'm one of the magpies tempted to pick up foils from the collector product.
Yeah. It's 200 new cards total, give or take - 50 per commander deck - and everything else is reprints and/or alternate treatments.
@@ArmadilloAl The 'Blast from the Past' deck has a few very choice reprints in it, including Heroic Sacrifice and Three Visits, both of which fetch a decent price on the secondary market.
Absolutely loves this episode, I don’t watch or know really anything about doctor who but hearing all this amazing lore while looking at this fantastic art was a true joy, it could of been a longer episode and I wouldn’t of complained seeing your love of doctor who truly shine through when discussing these cards was incredible
I think that Matt Smith was the best doctor. He was my first doctor, and I don't usually cry, but I will always consistently cry when I get to the end of Vincent and the Doctor. The 11th Doctor's run just had so many laughs, so many tears, so many cool moments, and one of the most emotional send-offs of all of the Doctors. Matt Smith will always be my Doctor.
I know next to nothing about Doctor Who but I gotta say, I am LOVING just how much you two are absolutely nerding out over this set. That energy is downright infectious.
Hey Proff! Just wanted to say that I loved that you got Matt's "farewell" quote right just on the top of your head!
That quote rings so true to me, and out of all of the great quotes from the show (from '05 and onwards) this is the one I love the most since it speaks to me on a very personal level.
Also great great video as usual, and I hope you and your team are doing great!
Have a great one!
Cheers from Denmark
I very much enjoyed watching Gavin and Prof geek out about Doctor Who and seeing these cards in the boosters.
It's such a treat to watch fans appreciate the content that is created by them and for them :D
41:27 YAAAAY! TROUGHTON! I love that Greg Staples art so much.
Genuinely love hearing the professors commentary during openings, it’s even better to hear him talk about doctor who so passionately
Professor and Gavin I love you guys! I wish I could have been there talking with you. It had me choking up bringing up all these amazing memories of watching Doctor Who. Seriously growing up watching this show this set hits home so hard and you guys do such a great job going over it.
Being an (almost) lifelong fan of doctor who, this video reminded me of some of my favorite episodes and has been rewatching between pack openings! Love the passion for doctor who from both Prof and Gavin
Excellent, excellent, excellent video. Total joy to watch how passionate you two are about Doctor Who.
I know next to nothing about Dr. Who, but I watched this entire video - it's great to see you two completely nerding out over something that isn't (only) Magic, and to just hear people passionate about something go into it, as well as to see all the effort and thought that was put into the references on the cards, both in terms of the reprint art and flavor, and the mechanical callbacks to the show. Great fun, and it sounds like they couldn't have picked a better person to lead the set :)
Maybe my favorite Tolarian CC video of all time. Their joy over this awesome new set was so heartwarming. I'm not usually a fan of the collector boosters, but knowing all the thought and detail that went into these makes me one to get one.
REALLY wish there were Tardis frame arts for more of the companions.
Especially on Nyssa and Romana II.
If peter cushing stayed on as doctor he would've been incredible
As a fan of Colin Baker's Doctor.. I kinda agree, but can't wait to make a 6/Peri deck!
I’ve given it a test run and - good god, the Commander pairing is stupid strong in a historic deck. I summoned the bug people card whilst both were out, and I wound up with an enormous army of insects
The Sixth Doctor was always a favorite (for reasons I could never say for certain) so glad to see him (and Baker) getting love.
I love this!!! I may not be a Doctor Who fan, but just watching two fans of both Magiv and Doctor Who gush about episodes and card designs is what this game and collectibles as a whole are all about! Great stuff Professor and Gavin!
That Farewell card definitely pulls at my heartstrings.
I appreciate you sharing your Doctor Who Collectors box opening with us. These are really cool looking cards. I hope that there will be more Doctor Who cards in the future. Thank you Gavin and Professor for the video.
What a great video, talking about Doctor Who outside of the cards, plus it really has a good mood, it feels like 2 friends talking about a common passion they share. I loved it, and would love more Who from you Prof, but alas of course it has no reason to on a Magic channel I understand.
Have a very great day both of you
The limit of 12 regeneration (13 incarnations) was set in the Tom Baker episode The Deadly Assassin
I absolutely loved this video. I watched a little bit of doctor who a while back, but I would by no means consider myself a big fan. I just really enjoy listening to people talk so passionately about their hobbies and stuff they like.
I know there are probably weird legal stuff at play for getting gavin on here. But I love the content you guys do together. Its so much fun and this has been a bright spot in an otherwise difficult few days
This is, I think, an A plus plus product for me.
This is the first time since I have started playing where I can just go and purchase an entire set of the base printings, flat out. More of this please!
This video was an absolute delight, thank you!
So happy to see Gavin and the Prof together in this episode and geeking out over Doctor Who. Awesome episode!
I haven't even seen a single Doctor Who episode, and watching Gavin and The Professor talking together, enjoying Magic Cards and Doctor Who references, that was actually a delightful video to watch! Great stuff…
I've never watched any Doctor Who episode and only know some little bits. But despite that, I still watched this entire video, watching you tell stories about nearly all of the cards was just so heartwarming and fun. It makes me really happy, and I'm glad this set exists. I hope it helps make everyone understand just how cool those Worlds Beyond sets can be for people. And it also makes me really wish for a set with an IP that I love so I can be in that spot too one day.
So cool watching the two of you gush over Doctor Who cards!
Beautiful Video. Always great to see you and Gavin together. 👍🏽
Gavin did amazing on these decks, they are SO MUCH FUN. this and the warhammer are the precons for me which made the most fun overall. really alot of new crazy stuff in them all
The length of the video was great, I got to see your passion and how the series excites you.
That Delgado card from The Daemons is beautiful.
This was really enjoyable to watch, thank you 👍
Awesome video guys. I seriously love Doctor Who and I am a fan of Magic as well. Marrying the two worlds was just happy and makes me hope for so much more within the Universes Beyond Imprint of Magic. Thank you guys.
This video couldn't be more nerdy and i love it
As a long time fan of Magic, and a relatively new fan of Doctor Who, my first reaction to hearing about this product was "Ugh, really?" But now after seeing the cards and watching this entire video, I gotta hand it to you all. This looks awesome. I could have easily watched another hour listening to you all talk about the cards. Thank you for sharing your passion!
Thank you Professor, thank you Gavin, best box opening ever to my opinion. The lore explained (i stopped watching Doctor Who after Matt Smith regeneration) is such an immense value added and brings back a lot of memories to whose that know and might give the will to try for those who haven't.
That was a lot of fun, thank you. When I was a kid, the doctor was his fourth iteration. Tom Baker will always be the Doctor for me.
Now looking at the art I realize Farewell is referencing the regeneration, but at first I thought it was a reference to his good bye to Rose, which is really his farewell that pulls at my lil heart strings.
Farwell was 100% David not wanting to quiting acting as the dr. Why he comes back alot and even has retunred as the main dr. He loved the role so much
The choked estuary art is brilliant. Prof glossed over it, but oh my goodness that’s so clever!
"Christopher Eccleston signed off on this?" I think I had a similar thought. lol Still, a great scene (episode, even) and my favorite incarnation so far.
Love these longer format box-side chats with you guys!
Also for The Professor, the Doctor having limited regenerations had been first put forward in the 70's! A big part of me hopes that the writers for the 10th - 11th handover allowed the fanfare around it because he was scared of running out of time (as it were).
I can’t believe I watched almost an hour and a half long video of someone opening a booster box and loved it the whole time! ❤
This product as well as the return of David Tennant has caused to revisit the series now introducing it to my son and this video was so fun for me. I am looking forward to enjoying Al l these episodes again. The card art is gorgeous ❤
Ngl this is the first product release in a while I'm so extremely excited for and first one where I'll buy all four commander decks of. The nostalgia is just so overwhelming ^^
One of the best box openings ever, you can hear the EXTRA enthusiasm
34:33 "I will legitimately get emotionally talking about it" dude i saw the card "Everybody lives" and was over the moon and now i see this art... i might have let a tear roll because it's one of my abselutely favorite moments.
The teacher: Don't remove remanider texts, I'm old and I don't have a memory.
Proceeds to remember even the smallest detail of a television series made 15 years ago.
This was the most wholesome thing I've seen all week!
59:40 UNIT used to be the United Nations Intelligence Taskforce. When New Who started they were not allowed to reference the UN in the show anymore (or at least were asked not to), so in universe UNIT became independent as the Unified Intelligence Taskforce.
its cool that the designer came on the show. It always cool to get to know the people working on these projects.
