      Tolarian College please tell me more about your local game store..my LGS in Clackamas (OREGON) is selling set boosters at $145 and I feel like that's too much compared to yours. I need a better store to buy sets from.

      I know you've gotten this many times but, adding up the amount over the cost of the next box, you went into box four with $190. Add that with the 50 from box four and you made $240 before you even released this video. This video is a bad argument against buying boxes. If you took the money over the cost and continue the series until all the over money goes away then you could get another one or two videos out of it and show buy boxes/packs isn't worth it.
      Also, I'd guess you'd make more money from extra videos than keeping the money

    God, that first list card you pulled being only worth a penny really does go a long way to pointing to my issue with the list. I love the concept, I think it's a great idea, why does it have worthless cards that aren't even thematic on it? Why do I have 3 list copies of Orzova, church of deals? Why are you opening Stone Haven Pilgrim in a set booster of Kamigawa? Like I get rare/needed reprints if they're off theme, and I get cheap cards if they're somewhat thematic to the set (I'm not upset about pulling a treacherous werewolf in a Crimson Vow set booster even though it's bad and worthless because at least it feels fitting), but cheap cards that aren't related to anything boggle my mind.

      @Dracinard 3 роки тому

      Stone Haven Pilgrim I kinda like for this Kamigawa as there's such a big artifact & enchantment theme, especially in white. So a decent creature that has synergy with that is kinda neat.
      All that said, I completely agree. I'm not asking for a List full of chase rares, but I want the List card to be one that gets my mind turning to figure out where to put it. That RR 2/2 that blocks lifegain from the same box is a great example - that's a cool, powerful effect! I'll find a spot for that in a deck if I pull it. The Snake sorcery, sssssimilarly - that's a neat tribal build around for Commander, and the set contains enough Snakes to get you started. A 2/2 for 2 that could be a 3/3 lifelinker on attacks? No, I know I can't really put that anywhere. The List is rare enough that it should be guaranteed to be a little special when you get one I don't feel that as is.
      (Absolutely love the set though!)

      My store still has a bunch. $110 for a booster box sitting on double digits still.

    With one of my set boosters I opened, there was a signed art card in every pack! Definitely not as cool as opening a list card in every pack of two japanese strixhaven set boosters, but still weird and interesting!
    I love all the cards in this set. Limited is fun. The commander cards are fun. So many awesome cards and treatments - definitely my favorite set in many years!

    Gotta appreciate Prof brought his suit A-game for this set. And I love that the Jitte got more fanfare than the $130 pull.

    Your Aura Shards, Thousand-Year Elixir and Graveborn Muse list pulls were also pretty sweet. WAY better than LOTS of other list pulls.

    Man, these Japanese alternate arts are Awsome AF, really wanna open up some packs for this and I always love Kamigawa as my fave plane. Really glad we get to revisit this plane once more.
    Would be AWESOME if they made a pack full of alternate art... and would wanna get a booster box in Japanese in the future

    I think you pulled the literal most expensive card in the set with that foil Wandering Emperor... pretty insane third box (and very nice 1st and 2nd boxes as well). Great booster box game today!

    dude, the Umezawa's Jitte pull scared the shit out of me lol. I'm sitting here typing an email, listening to the somber quite music you have as you crack packs. The occasional "ding" prompts me to look over and see what you pulled. then out of NO WHERE I have to check my shorts.

  • @gilby123
    @gilby123 2 роки тому

    That Wandering Emperor was BEAUTIFUL. Amazing hit there, Prof!
    I absolutely love the art in this set. And overall, it's been a good draft set too. I think the channel lands (at least a few) are going to be staples for a long while.

    Gotta agree about the drafts, I can't remember the last set I drafted and had so much fun with it. Probably buying a couple boxes just for fun drafts at home with friends...

  • @MrArchivist1
    @MrArchivist1 3 роки тому +1

    It's amazing to me that you can get such an incredibly vibrant and colorful set (esp. the alternate art) right on the heels of Double Feature and the frankly dull alternate art from both Crimson Vow/Midnight Hunt and Forgotten Realms. Maybe monotone or dirt brown are just that, and not inspired art direction?

    Great video Prof, I actually love more the collecting part then getting value from the cards when opening. So as a bit of extra fun with your Booster box games I have started tracking to see how close you get to opening a whole set. You were close too, you got all but 5 cards opened.
    For anyone interested the cards not opened were:
    Blade of the Oni
    Jin-Gitaxias, Progress Tyrant
    Kura, the Boundless Sky
    The Kami War
    Basic Island(natural)

    set boosters are better than draft boosters, you've picked the right product to open here for sure. some of the big value cards only come in set booster boxes
