i totally understand if it takes a while or is just not feasible but was there any update on the video covering how you sell cards from the booster box game?
Speaking of the signed cards, would you mind telling me what envelopes you use and where you got them?? I'm looking for something like that to ship singles in. The ones I've got are still too big, LOL.
I just saw the legendary frog and FROG EDH flashed across my brain like a vision out of hell.
I've already made a grolnok deck, you can take him in so many directions, tribal, voltron, mill, dredge, etc
@@unboundjackal No. There is only ONE build. *Fr0G TrIbAl.*
@@bodaciouschad not for me lol, I decided to build a aura voltron deck, u can typically win by turn 6-7
Frog Force One or Ribbit Tribal.
@@unboundjackal You have not trully achieved victory. What you have gained by sullying his swamp with your filthy Voltron strategy is but falsehoods and dissappointment. There is but a singular correct path forward- *FROG TRIBAL.*
My LGS in Mesa were shocked to actually see that we got Set Booster boxes after WEEKS of WOTC telling us we wouldn't be getting any in time for release. This was EXTRA scummy because they had just increased our cost to buy prerelease kits because we "would be getting Set Booster boxes as prize support." Well, we didn't. But the price stayed the same. Thanks WOTC! You always know how to support your players best!
That's nasty as fuck
Damn. I work at my LGS, and for our pre release since there wasnt any shipment for set boosters we just gave out draft packs for prizes, with an extra ontop to make up for the whole no set stuff. Can’t believe yalls place upcharged though, we kept it the same
That's sounds more like your LGS ripping you off rather than WOTC. My lgs didn't increase prices for prerelease at all
Wait. Your LGS increases the kit cost or WotC??
@@Smutter86 LGS, OP doesn't understand supply chain and basic economics.
I've got to say, most the resale value is in the lands, in the UK at least. Got £45 for 61 non-foil from selling them after opening a couple boxes
There is always good money in land. Land is usually a good investment not only in magic but in life.
Yeah, the full art lands will always hold value into the future. Foils will probably hit $2-3 eventually down the road.
I just cant part with them, they are by far my favorite basic lands
Oh wow, gotta love the buzzer beater win on the first box lol
My favorite series from the Prof: The "Which cards from this set should you pick up for pennies at the moment?" game.
Took my friend to his first pre-release event as a way to get him into the game. We both had a great time playing paper Magic with the cards from the new set!
I already know it won’t be worth, I’m just here for profs bit.
I think we all are.
But now I can't just post "for the a l g 0 r 1 thm". So now I'm going to actually interact with posts... I picked yours.
Happy to be a new Patroeon of this channel. I have watched every video for years, and now I can give back to the channel. My wife (the vampire collector) can have a benefit of the signed card from this video to add to her collection!
When the video is only 20 minutes
Tragic: the Maddening
Happy Friday, Prof! 🦃 Thank you for all the amazing content you provide. I hope you have a great day. You deserve it!
The borderless lands look really good. Loved the art on the red/blue land. Didn't draft but did a pre-release and it was a lot of fun. Pulled a cultivator collasus, I think there's a lot of good tribal support from this set. I think midnight hunt had more value but vow was more fun to play in sealed at least.
I feel like the basic lands of this set should have been included, 30+ non-foil basics could sell for $10 easily, even more for foils.
i got a draft box and a set box this go around and literally the most expensive card i pulled was a $28 urborg, tomb of yawgmoth. i'm happy i got the urborg but it's incredibly sad when the set can't even come close to breaking even.
Wotc is in the market of gaining money, not losing it. If every box paid for itself it would be counter intuitive on a business perspective. Expect to lose money, cheer if you beat out the system. These are just scratch tickets you can play a game with. And that's OK.
28$ is what the LGS is asking for. I f you were to sell them that Urborg they would probably give you 15-18$ back. I tend to see "worth" as being what an LGS would give me $ in exchange. More realistic in my opinion than going with the selling price they display on their website/shelves.
@@Personalinfo404 except they aren’t losing money if I can resell the cards for more than what I bought the box for… I’m not selling back to wotc.. they make the same amount of money from their box whether I pull 400 commons or 400 mythics.
@@Personalinfo404 It’s actually not ok, because minors can buy Magic packs, but not scratchers, despite that both technically constitute gambling. They either need to make the value of packs more consistent (less chaff), or stop selling them to individuals under 18. A business should only make a profit if they put out a good product, anyway, and a good business can make a profit and/or product without screwing their customer base. Greed is greed is greed.
@@Personalinfo404 From Wizard's perspective, every box DOES pay for itself. People have to remember, regardless of secondary markets, the cost of production for 15-20 little paper cards is absolutely minuscule, with little to no variants between printing €100 cards and 10c ones. If you're buying a Wizard's product or applying secondary values to their product Wizard's wins, it's really just a matter of how often consumers are rewarded for buying into it.
Prime music pics for this episode, honestly loved them!
Such funky music this time! Like it even though I don't get sleepy from these openings anymore lol
That folks enjoy this is great... Oh, kids used your guide for starting a MTG school group. Nice post.
That was an awesome 1st box. I'd enjoy drafting or playing Commander with you and the group. Working on my Tovolor Commander, and a separate tiny leaders deck. I can't wait to get some Crimson Vow product for myself.
Runo was my prerelease promo, and after watching Prof’s earlier video I am very tempted to build him. Anyway I do like this set, and the singles are mostly very affordable which is always nice
I like to give the prof's vids a like and comment because he seems like a nice fellow and deserves it.
For some reason these are my favorite videos.
The music for the booster box games is always on point
100% here to vibe your music track today, thanks
You got a couple of the tokens I want in that first box. Also, nice to finally see a game that hits box 2
Hullbreacher horror reminds me of my favorite time playing magic with pearl lake ancient control. So thumbs up for that I guess with CV.
I love your channel's tunes, Prof...
i couldn't attend a preselease event but i got a pack to support both my local FLGS and my "totally not an addiction" to cracking open packs.
It seems like a really cool set, I love the art style.
I built an old Tromokratis deck when I was on a Lovecraft binge back in 2014, with Merfolk as a cultist filler thing. Runo seems like he could just hit the same vibe without filler, which is cool.
Opened a draft box and was luckily able to get a Sorin showcase and foil. Really happy about that
Highlight reel is a great song. Also, Jason Harding uses it as a theme song for his podcast "The Ensign's Log"
Honestly I'm happy the singles are at a low premium with these recent sets. I'm already a budget Commander builder and this just helps me more in being able to afford new cards for my decks
Get a better job. Stop trying to adjust reality to fit your lifestyle.
@@jessie38supercharged Stop trying to adjust reality to fit my lifestyle? What did I do to change reality? I play within my means. I adjust my choices to my reality. You may need to clarify your point. 😄
@@Teifling Power in numbers. Same reason commander took over magic and turned it into monopoly. Eventually you'll buy a board game box that has 4 sets of every card in the series for $19.99 at walmart. If enough people like worthless cards...They'll all end up being worthless cards. Doesn't even need to be a majority. Just need to be the louder.
@@jessie38supercharged So you're telling me to stop buying cheap cards because it may reduce the value of the game overall? I guess I'm glad I play the game for fun, not finance, because that concept doesn't bother me in the slightest. Even if the feared doomsday of the collapse of Magic's secondary market happened and some how Star City, Channel Fireball, and Martin Skreli sue WotC for imagined damages, I'll still play my worthless cardboard for fun with my friends.
I honestly would have been happier opening the second box. The land cycle in this set is good and will likely climb in value over time.
I had what can only be described as the best luck ever at the Crimson Vow prerelease I went to. Out of my 6 packs, I pulled a cultivator colossus, Toxrill the Corrosive, Faithbound Judge, and Kaya Geist hunter. I pretty easily went undefeated with a nice Orzhov midrange deck.
That second song got me pumped up prof
Love those videos!
I'm mostly a constructed player, but the limited environment for this set seems awesome and i'm actually excited to draft it, which is a rarity for me.
the professor's choice in royalty free music is actually fire
The Crimson Vow portion of my Set box was pretty average, but I managed to pull a Vampiric Tutor and a Cavern of Souls from the List so yay for luck.
Prerelease for this set was quite fun, although I got pretty stomped. Drafting this for the first time tonight, wish me luck!
yes i did do prerelease and did 3 2HG events,most of the games i got to cast alchemists gambit and spin the top can take an extra turn win or lose it was fun
The music was the best on fleeck.
I bought the Crimson Vow prerelease pack and spent really nice time opening it. As per deck usage, I did not found anything useful or inspiring to create a new deck, but I have so much fun just checking cards and putting them into storage units. You know, the smell, watching ilustrations, checking prices, it is like a ritual for me.
If I think, if I spent money properly - no, I could spent it better, buying individual cards or just one Set Booster to silence my addiction.
If I think, if this was worth it - yes, it was worth. I had wonderful evening with new cards. I was completely disconnected from my work, private life issues, anxiety etc.
About the Crimson Vow per se... I thought it will have more killer cards. For now it is like 5-10 cards that I really like from that set. With the next shopping I will rather buy something from Zendikar again or Midnight Hunt, than from Crimson Vow.
I am also thinkig about that Day/Night cycle. I have completely no idea what that does do and how it works, but maybe I will finally sit and read about it, and then maybe buy again something from the newest set.
my friends and i just drafted this a couple of days ago. And it was indeed alot of fun
Definitely gonna cop those lands
I haven't been to a prerelease in a while. Can't wait to go again! Just waiting a bit longer as I have people close to me who are immunocompromised.
I was able to get a set. Booster box on the East Coast, no problem. I just like to see what the values are on some of these singles. Thanks Prof.
I bought my first Magic cards today. I got an Arena Starter Kit and two Kaldheim bosters. I really like the snow cards.
11 boxes and record time! Thanks prof :)
I like the theme of the set much better this time around. Will you be doing the booster box game for Double Feature?
I had no issue getting a Set Booster box on release day for $120 at an LGS in RI. The lack of supply seemed to be over hyped, at least around here.
please consider showing both sides of transform cards if they are rare, mythic, or foil
Your smile is so infectious, please never stop being you :) thank you for being in my life
Professor changed up the music, and it's even more of a banger than before.
I bought my 1st ever set booster and I was very pleases with my pulls.
Can`t wait to get my signed Runo Stromkirk! Greetings from Bosnia!
Nice Video! 👍
My main take-out from this video: hey, one of my most hyped cards of the set barely costs half a buck!
Don't forget: it's probably cheaper to buy every single card you need from the set than to buy a booster box - and a greater percentage of them is going to be of use.
Old Rutstein?
From every* set.
@@andresicuro no, Ill-Tempered Loner. Props to anyone who makes a Rutstein deck though!
Loving the Mortal combat soundtrack on this one hahahaha
Nice vest, prof! Stylish AF.
I'm really surprised to hear the prof say he liked drafting crimson vow. Up until now, my experience has pretty much only been whoever has the biggest and most bombs win. I had way more fun with midnight hunt. Still an awesome set though! Packfull of powerfull cards for many formats.
Love this series. Always fun to watch. Probably too expensive, but wouldnt mind seeing some of the collector booster versions for some of these sets.
Sorry Tolarian, but I did this with my set booster box. And I got over 100$ in 10 packs! Maybe just a hot box but still was fun!
Top cards were
Wedding ring
Cultivator colossus
Hullbreak horror
Sundown pass and
Dreamroot cascade
Boy did that wedding ring make those packs worth it
Thank YOU for pronouncing Runo Stromkirk correctly - unlike so many other youtubers who shall remain unnamed.
Hey prof! I just have a quick question about the signed card of the month! What side do you sign for the dfc?
I bought the booster box for my own collection so I don’t plan on reselling many/any of the cards but if I were, I would likely get less then $30 off the whole box. I had quite a few fun cards for playing with but nothing of particular value. The most expensive one in total was $3.80 or so. And that’s with the 6 or so mythic rares and two plainswalkers I pulled from the box..
That first box topper really had the one-way ticket to OFFCENTER town
I think both sets are about the same. Built Liesa from MH, built best slug from CV. Honestly both sets have good long-term value. Just gotta sit on them a while.
Crimson Vow seems to have few/no bum mythics and the rare lands have universal playability, I don't like the value game either but this seems like decent set to tuck away for later.
I craft a commander with Olivia, crimson bride with the draft booster box and i love vampires
Hey prof just curious. Do you sell the cards online or back to your lgs? If online how long does it take to sell them all?
I think honored Heirloom is a HIGHLY overlooked card from this set.
I made it to the Prerelease with 39 other people. I "drafted" so bad, i placed 40th :D But it was fun anyway.
A 40 player prerelease?? Most players you'll find around here is around 12...
Hey prof, I opened a pretty nice bundle the other day that more than paid for itself. I was wondering if you would ever consider doing a bundle box game the same way as the booster box game. I think it might be fun.
Sometimes I play this videos just to listen to the music ♫♫
I didn't think I would like this set, but my sister bought me a collectors booster for Christmas and I ended up building a new Black/Red vampire deck (I've been using the same Orzhov Vamps for almost three years now), so I personally had a good time with it. It wasn't super impressive, but it wasn't that bad either
My family and I were in Vegas, and probably opened 4 boxes total, and we didn’t pull one Olivia, or that green mythic…. And some others. Got like 3 sorins, one foil, 3 Chandra, one alt foil.
Watching you bend these cards pained me
God the art is so cool
I got a Sorin the mirthless (Ayami Kojima version), overcharged amalgam,geralf and a thalia in a bundle (old fat pack). Not bad!
Prof, you should do this video again with Set Boosters. There is substantially more value this set in the Set Booster openings and it's quite fun.
I disagree. Probably just because of my luck but I've never gotten more out of the box then draft. I have gotten more value out of draft booster then set
Duuuuuuuuude!!! This music!!! Juicyyy
I’ve enjoyed both sets more than I thought I would, just wish human tribal wasn’t so strong though.
My LGS specifically said that they wouldn't receive any set booster boxes until release. Supposedly it was WOTCs way of pushing draft booster boxes. So annoying but I was able to snag one on release.
Back in Kaldheim it was no draft boxes available, only set. Now the opposite seems to have happened, but not quite as widespread.
Mostly I just think the supply chains are still hecked up.
My LGS have both set and draft boosters, so this must be a regional thing
It's spelled "global pandemic"
@@fredrikhenriksson1508 Oh is there a Paggliaci happening? I hadn't noticed 🙄
In my set Box i found one booster with cultivator colossus, sorin in alternate Art and cemetery gateceeper in alternate Art foil
as always, play at 1.5x speed to move things along if you're into that.
Crimson vow was my first pre release
The Crimson vow card look deadly.
Yes, let’s see if it is worth it !!!
Not as bad as opening a set booster box of Mindnight Hunt with five out of six Commander rares being from the 50 cent Visions cycle.
Ah just in time for my Thanksgiving leftovers lunch!
Pulled the castlevania sorin and foil Chandra and promo mythic red vamp on prerelease kit…that kit had better value than the box I bought…but had a great time drafting with my wife and kids
This video made me dance, dance, dance.
Over here in Euroland set booster boxes were released as scheduled. I got one with *45* rares/mythics, and a box value of $175 - counting everything (subtract $10-20 for bulk rares and basics, as like they matter). Only disappointment was that these Belgian made cards don't have the glossy foil legendaries and only weak gloss on the basics. The Plains were even completely gloss-less: misprints? So the verdict is out: Japanese boxes are better!
I feel like the Investigator Journal will be great in certain commanders
haven't drafted any of return to return to innistrad, I'll probably wait for innistrad double feature early next year
So I am not the only one with upside down cards in their box. I got a draft box on release day and around 20 of the packs contained 2 uncommons packaged upside down. Not a huge deal but just thought it was weird how consistent it was.
Hello there Professor,
do you plan on reviewing the gamegenic games lair 600+? I'm considering this for a christmas present and would love to hear your opinion about it :)
Great video, as always:)
Kind regards from Germany
Just had a thought, how long has it been since Prof pulled out a sleeve to put on an expensive card? The "Disregard commons // Acquire Legacy foils" one I believe it said.
I always and will buy the singles I need professor.
