I got nearly every card I wanted! Excited to get these in the mail :) the new Karn is going in my cEDH Godo!
Wait Rudy keeps the uncommons?
great pulls man. wish mine were that great. I got foil living twister and friend of wolves as my foil rares. my 2 boxes were very meh.
You did get some slam dunks in this one. TONS of mythics, and they're all playable.
I got a foil Teferi and a regular Teferi during prerelease. Plus the Bolas land. That thing is sick in two headed giant.
@@thecrimsomcardyugioh9810 Yeah, sending the uncommons ends up being too much weight for shipping at a reasonable rate. He only ships mythics, rares, and foils.
I love how you upload like 4 vids a day
Gotta keep the Timmy's entertained xD
@LaBass666 *your* damn grammar Timmy
Not anymore. I think he's shutting down the channel.
i guess im randomly asking but does anybody know a tool to log back into an Instagram account..?
I stupidly lost the login password. I love any help you can give me.
@Colby Neil instablaster :)
All of the artwork Rudy is flipping out about is all Seb's art. he's without a doubt my favorite active magic artist today. I love that the AD's allow him to pain the way he does because no one else does impressionism like he does, and it really stands out.
He recently had his Kickstarter selling signed playmates with his artwork on them and needles to say I jumped on that offer pretty quickly.
I missed out on those playmats. The Belzenlok trio was incredible
Managed to swag his Kickstarter! Found myself slowly pledging more and more as he released them!
I did a similar comment before going through the comment section. Nice to see that many others have noticed that Rudy seems to not be conscious that almost everytime he comment on artworks it is Seb. I hope WoTC are paying him well! I also love Magalie Villeneuve arts because its neat. But, not that much artist can convey feelings and originality like McKinnon do.
Love seeing you casually getting a Liliana and Gideon .
I think it's cool how Rudy liked all the Seb McKinnon art. He really is one of the best of our time.
Seb just blows it out of the water every time.
I’m glad I was apart of sebs kickstarter! Going to get that deliver unto evil playmat!
They should do an entire set that Is just sebs art
They need to let Seb do some black planeswalkers.
Absolutely right. Sebs art is always gorgeous.
Holy crap foil Boar God! That’s moneyyyyyy
Ya I have the normal version which is like 12, the foils probably like 20-30
My favorite card in the set because he's been winning my draft games.
I got foil board god foil thin in my prerelease pack along with bolas two karma, another boar god, and refers and vitu ghazi. 200 bucks overall
Foil went down but it's still around 30-35
@@aternias its like 29
The sheer level of confusion at the creature type "Boar God" was pure gold. XD
It was the same confusion we had as well.
still makes no sense to me, i dont know if putting the word "god" is wise, it should carry higher relevance, sure the card is absurd, but a God is almighty and a Boar is very limited.
@@kazybloodshine Eh. If we want to bring real world religions into this, God is almighty, but gods are limited in scope. I view deities in Magic similar to the Greek gods. Powerful, but not omnipotent.
@@MrSJPowell still not a boar, hahaha I just felt the word God being depowered, like the planeswalkers cards through planeswalker decks and now on WotS, def, but I guess for the sake of the game.
Rudy's pulls are looking spicy today. I see a LOT of these cards spiking for commander or something.
Deathsprout became like an instant commander staple for GB and Return to Nature instantly replaced Naturalize. Foils for them are $2.50 right now, but I can definitely see them hitting $10 once the set print dies down.
I only play EDH and there are some spicy cards in the set indeed.
@@JeroenO129 I am considering keeping my current pulls and buying a box as I am just getting back into commander. I tend to like the "fair" route of commander decks, but a lot of this stuff seems really spicy for that. I also realized that a lot of things I don't even want that used to be fairly inexpensive are really really pricy now, so I have decent trade in from next to no investment.
@@JeroenO129 Vizier of the Scorpion and Gleeming Overseer are amazing
Ah, so this is where all the mythics that were supposed to go in my box ended up.
It's all that arena money, they could pay for better card stock
you know, Europe has always had better card stock :P
@@Skytho this! when i was in the states last year i bought a pack of US printed cards and almost threw up from the smell. they are so damn bad. holy shit!
I just love how Rudy mixed up Goblin with Zombie XD
There are rumors of patterns like"finale boxes" and "god boxes". Meaning one box will get one of the full mythic cycles. I got a finale box, myself, and a Lili as a 6th mythic. Its odd but i dont see anyone complaining.
I got myself a God box, got every single God and to top it off a foil Oketra, Feels Amazing Man!!
Yup i got identical mythics to the first box on the one i opened
I also got all 5 finale in one box + 1 of the black finale foil + a Bolas. #seemsgood.
Likewise for me, except I got the god cycle and Bolas
I got bolas, red finale and bontu. And that's it. 3 mythic box excluding foils. No real patterns there...
In my box I got Nicol Bolas, Liliana, a foil Raze-Boar, and 4 other Mythics. I like this set.
Between the box and the Pre-release kit I got about $180 in Rares/Mythics, heavily boosted by the foil Raze-Boar
@@Headywon please don't lie
Wow I commented before I watched the whole video. The same foil Mythic?! Btw last time I checked that thing is like $40
Can I have some please since that explains where all my mythics went. I got both normal and foil bontu, bolas and the red finale. And that was it. Foil rare in my box was feather though, which is good since those commander lot are hyping it to shit.
It’s prerelease pricing, it drops about 50% in a week or two.
The Boar only maintains its price if Red/Green becomes a deck.
Without a bomb in hand, it’s an “undying” 6/6 trampler without haste.
Seb McKinnon is my favorite MTG artist. Pay attention to his art. It's easy to pick out and it's all amazing.
I love how all the Art Rudy's excited about is by Seb McKinnon.
Dude's been my favorite Magic artist for awhile now. Good shit.
I am surprised you don't know about Seb Mckinnons art its amazing.
Anyway it's nice to see him commenting about the art everytime he looks at a Seb's art, even without knowing
Great looking set. I've never played magic, but I did buy some packs around 1996. This set might be the one that actually gets me into the game, or more likely I will buy a box just to appreciate the art alone. Love your channel Rudy. Hello from Tampa.
Download and play MTG Arena its free to play. It might help ya get more into the game :)
Seb McKinnon has been killing it in these recent sets. So glad he's been getting the love he deserves.
This box is fricking awesome! Foil boar, foil deathsprout! And Finale’s coming out left and right! And Foil Bastion! Dude! What magic are you casting here?!
The "watered-down" Planeswalkers are the best enchantments that MTG has put to print in years....and then they have some cool activated abilities for giggles. There's going to be talk of banning some of those later....some of them are really powerful, even down in the uncommon slot.
Shawn Schwickerath Ashiok & Narset in particular.
really appreciate this box opening. the fact that you didn’t look at the spoiler list so your reactions and comments are exactly where the community is at too. ahah. aka, surprised.
Man, I just love playing magic! Some boxes to the side and hold them for a lifetime is just fun!
Seb McKinnon is the best MTG artist atm, period.
there so many artists, funny to claim to know all of it, but yea, Seb is SICK 😉
@@kazybloodshine personal opinion hahhaha i just love the uniqueness of his style, i follow a lot of mtg artists and love them all
Quote of the century “and a foil whoa!! Look at that chick! What’s growing out of her!! it’s like little Rudy’s growing out of her!” 😂😂
Rooty Rudies!
My quote of the day goes to 8:19 It wouldn't be a hydra if it wasn't Magic The Gathering"
Hello there. I see you also like Seb McKinnon's art.
Both cards he got excited over were Seb's, he's got good taste
I commented about this to. He's my favorite MTG artist. I can't wait for his movie to be made.
I love how much Rudy get impressed with Seb McKinnon arts in the recent sets without apparently knowing that each art he praised are from the same artist. Seb should be proud because I like a lot is arts too. I find that is style and imagery convey originality, feelings and emotions, which is a rare thing.
Sorry I’ve been late to all your videos this week, Rudy! School musical is kicking my ass.
Rudy is speechless, sounds like my dad trying to be impressed by something he doesn't understand. You're the best dude.
One of the first packs, Rudy pulls the second most expensive card in the set, and no floppy tacos have been slapped. Who hurt you Rudy? Who?!
Acts casual while pulling the second most expensive card in the set
3 vids in one day! You make the days better rudy!!
Alpha Investments, you have no idea just how powerful Ashiok is... That guy is INSANE!! I have him in my deck and I not only send cards to the opponent's grave, he exiles them immediately after too. He even overrules Gaea's Blessing!!
Ashiok isn't a "he"
You hit a mythic finale box. It's being shown that these boxes for the most part are grouped. I opened 2 and got all the God's in one box, and all the non finale rares in another box.
Excellent box! Good value! Top 2 Planeswalker's are Lilly and Bolas
I was roughly keeping track of the UC Plainswalkers, Rares, Mythics, and any holos. Box 1 was about $190.43 in pulls and box 2 was about $165.16 in pulls, excluding any bulk commons and uncommons. Seems like a good box to buy in terms of value. Especially if the patron is getting such a great deal.
Rudy freaking out over the Seb McKinnon art is great
I didn't get a timmy edition. I'm bummed out, needed a Jace.
i'll sell u mine for 300 :D
A Jace from masters 25 is about $130 so less than the mythic edition. I know you could sell or trade what you don’t want but if all you wanted was a Jace honestly just buy one
@@videoartistMC maybe, if I was a timmy, sadly I'm a Tommy and Irish. So I never get case hits or great deals, just accumulate more collection.
@@videoartistMC
>Buys Timmy box
>fast sells it for Timmy gains
Checks out
"I like to do the first opening of every set, I just like to experience the set, nor dollar amounts, no hype... just to kind of get a feel for it all."
He then proceeds to blow through the commons and not even look at them. =P
doesn't look at any of the cards really. Reads the name, checks the rarity, puts it down.
I too agree that cardstock quality of the box I oppened was nice. Way better than what was printed in the last two-three years. I'm glad they seemed to work to fix this issue.
seriously ilharg is a goddamn beast. chain it with bolas, belzenlok, demanding drag, and cackling drake. it is fucking ridiculous. that foil is goddamn gold
Rudy, I cooked fresh Pizza Rolls just for this video.
The acts tell a story! I'm excited to collect the whole set! Old-school style
Dont let people get to you Rudy. Keep up the great work.
I absolutely loved how confused you were throughout the entire video
So we have now had a set that had a legendary in every pack (Dominaria) and now one with a Planeswalker in every pack (War). I am calling it now and we are going to get one on the near horizon that has a bunch of new non-basic land cycles and each pack will include one of those. Sure the Ravnica blocks all contain gates, but this will be some sort of special marketing point of having probably watered down versions of some of our favorite non-basic land cycles and then maybe fetches as the chase lands.
Cool I got a war of the spark booster pack box to
box one was a 11/10. Boar and Bastion along with Liliana was epic pulls. Paid for the box and then some.
Honestly so pumped for Creepy Rudy opening these boxes! I loved Guilds of Ravnica but not so much Ravnica Allegiance. War of the Spark is actually exciting!
this is like the haymaker from the far right, in the 1-2 combo for MTGA. I can just imagine wizards sitting on this for a long time thinking about when to release/unleash the planeswalker set. Dinosaurs -> Ravnica -> Planeswalkers (KO! and the crowd goes wild)
Rudy, At least $150 in singles for the first box. The money is real in this set. gods, and the mythic planeswalkers are all good. Ugin, karn, and teferi are the highest rare planeswalkers, money-wise, but dont forget to count the foiled uncommon planeswalkers. the regular non-planeswalkers are good too, Dreadhorde Arcanist and the rare lands in the set are used in older formats. and highly valued, especially foiled. This set has a great value.
I'm recording my friends booster box opening on Friday. I love this set and you Rudy! Me and my gf are watching this right now cant wait to see what you pull!
Kind've funny when you mentioned you liked the art on Deliver Unto Evil I was like "Rudy is gonna love Deathsprout" and then you hit a foil one a couple packs later. My favorite art in the set, also done by Seb.
First Box was a 6/10, bad Mythics with the exception of the Green Finale and Lili (and Foil Ilharg is currently at $35), but bad rares.
Box two was a 7/10, decent mythics, but good rares.
Seb McKinnon is the best artist in recent Magic Rudy. You pointed out the art for two of his cards in this set for a reason! His art is some of my favorite of all time.
Very impressed with this set so far. It had a different feel at prerelease. I thought uncommon Planeswalkers would be pretty weak, but they were actually more powerful than expected. Standard is going to be very different going forward!
Rogue deck builder had a box like the first box. I'm betting the planeswalkers in every pack messed up the ratios of mythic per box. I've seen multiple boxes with 5 to 8 mythic and a foil mythic.
I'm only watching first box openings from you now. None of the later opening videos... y'know, when you just care about the money. This is much more fun. ;-)
Rudy, that is an amazing portrait on your table-top. Looking good.
I love how he goes in blind and opens like the two best boxes printed for the set wow.
that foil karn's bastion is gonna be super expensive in a few years.
The boxes are sorted in WAR. You get 3-4 Mythics of the same type (Finales, Legendary creatures, aso) and sometimes a plainswalker to go along with it. I got 4 finales and a bolas in mine. and ive seen alot of box openings and its been the same in every single one.. In your first box you got only finales + Lilly. in your second box you got only legendary creatures + Giddion. I dont know why they have done this.
11:11 100% the professor needs to go on the bingo list for War of the Spark!
it looks like him so much it's uncanny
Video cut out a little early. I hope you're ok, Rudy. I know today was stressful, but you have a lot of people that think you're a really cool guy. Go have some tacos, things are gonna be ok. :)
Seb McKinnon has been crushing the artwork out of the park in the past few sets
It's a good set tbh, I LOVE Gleaming Overseer and Vizier of the Scorpion and those are just commons and uncommons. I went ahead and got the box with 10 boosters and pulled 3 mythics! Lilliana and the black/white Finales
glad you make videos Rudy i don't play magic and don't know the game but man i love watching you opening magic cards! hope you keep on going
Just want to say ty and keep it going Rudy!!!
The Gideon is because mythic pws have 4 abilities, rares have 3, uncommon 2, but one of those is a static ability...except they gave Gideon 2 static abilities + 2 loyalty ones. (and one of his statics has normally been a loyalty ability to make him a creature on your turn).
Idk if any posted you the answer rudy but spotlight is something going on in the story spotlight act 2 is meaning it is in the second part of the over all story. It's part of the set of cards that help tell the story. Also yeah I love that art too.
Rudy finale of devastateion is the most expensive finale
Literally best first box ive seen so far
Old school magic art, sweetness!!!
I don't play magic, nor do I really care to learn, but watching your videos is entertaining for some odd reason.
Rudy,
There’s an uncommon bond cycle where the Guilds that share colors team up to do an effect that shares traits with both Guilds.
The art is bursting past the borders. Like 90's comics
That first box was OFF THE HOOK. The Foil boar is going for $40 and the foil Karn land is FIRE too.
Nice Foil Razeboar God it's about 40 bucks atm Rudy! I pulled Foil Ugin and Karn in same pack at prerelease! 😎
Hell yeah man! I got a date stamped Ugin (which I, of course, never drew during my games) as well as a Nicol! Great box for me too!
I got oketrea and ral as my promos and got foil feather
I got two prerelease boxes... got two Tibalts. Cried.
Wait its 40 dollars?!
Yeah i got Teferi and Okerta promo with time stamps.
Absolutely absurd box opening. Congrats to that Patron.
In my box I got a Lilli, Bolas, Foil Karn, Bontu, Oketra, Gideon and Blue Finale.
Rudy,
The only Mythic planeswalkers in the set are Gideon, Lily, & Bolas.
Also there are only 3 vehicles so you saw them all. The blue one sucks, the white one will only see play in Commander, & the Red one is good in limited in the UR spells archetype.
when rudy is happy from new product its a good sign :P
Rudy, so far I watched until you pulled the white Finale card of the 1st box and paused right there to write this. I don't wanna jump at shadows here or put on my tinfoil hat, but Bad boy gaming/Joey Moss opened a few boxes in this past week and mentioned about seeing a pattern in the mythic slot. He said that most of the time you get a certain type of mythics per box. Like, 1 walker and then 3-4 of the Finale cards or 1 Finale and 4 God cards. Of course, just 5 boxes won't be enough to truly see a repeating pattern on a big scale, but since you're gonna be opening a good amount of these, I'd ask if it's possible for you to keep an eye on patterns like that as well... Sincerely yours,
A loyal subscriber
I'm personally loving the new planeswalkers, I've added them into a bunch on enchantment slots and they perform really well. PLUS, anything with proliferate, say goodnight!
They went all breakfast cereal on you...a planeswalker in every bite.
That entire first box was just super lucky and it had a lot of cards that will become commander staples and possible modern staples too.
"lil Rudy's growing out of her" HAHAHAHAHAHA
All these new planswalkers are giving fading flashbacks.
Love The Sleeping Rudy playmat!
So excited for vehicles to come back!!!
did 5 pre releases and within em i got four gods, and a bolas, ended up trading a promo feather for another bolas, honestly I love the artwork in this set cant wait for rudy to crack open bolas just to see the art.
War of the Rudy looks like it's shaping out to be an awesome set. I might have to get myself a couple of boxes of Rudy of the Spark.
So I am looking through your comment and it seem like no body is saying anything, “Story Spotlight: Act II” is one of the card that depicted the story of the war between Ravnican and Nico Bolas. FYI, there are three act and each act has around 3 cards that depict the event. In my opinion, this was a good change bc they used to have only 5 card per set and it left a lot to be desired.
Was that "spotlight act II" Seb McKinnon art somehow connected to the Secret Lair spotlight art that would come 2 years later?
Darn, this set is really just awesome!!!! Can’t get over it!
I been wanting to get back into Magic for so long now. This set might do it. Art work is some of the best i have seen. Card stock was a big issue.. can anyone else comment on the cards? Also was I the only one wanting a more detailed look at the Token cards?
Yeaahh, Ugin is pretty sweet. Pulled one as my pre-release promo.
At the time, regular pack foils of Ugin were $45.
My pre-release promo is probably somewhere closer to $50
Edit: the little Spotlight thing means it's one of the story cards. Remember when they'd stick a Planeswalker watermark on cards that resemble key parts of the set's story? Same thing, no watermark.
Rudy - One thing I heard was the mythics in a box are the same usually. For example, in you box one you got Sorcery's and in the second box you got the God mythics. Can you track this with your openings?
You always remember your first opening Rudy.
Finale of devastation will be the one that spikes it is green and currently the only $15 on out of all of them
I’ll be interested to see how you feel about it after a few more openings.
Krenko mob boss was my first rare I ever had. I got it in an M13 starter deck. Good memories with that card.
Mark my words this set is going to shake magic at the core. The power level is insane.
