Man. As someone who has a channel dedicated to these types of videos, I love watching your stuff. Keep it up. You're awesome and one of my inspirations.
I always look forward to your MTG unboxings, you're videos in general have really helped regulate my sleep pattern (I have trouble sleeping sometimes) but these videos always help. Keep up the great work!
+theASMRnerd Yeah it is pretty great. We play as often as we are able to. I have a red deck that I am favoring right now and he has a white. They are pretty well balanced.
+DonnaASMR The constant battle between relaxing and interesting! I'm sure you'd agree that sometimes it's hard making videos that are intentionally boring ;)
Great video. I would love to see a small example game where you explain the rules. I was never nerdy enough to play Magic but it sure got my interest now.
+Darth Fall Thanks for the clarification! I haven't been actively playing for a while, and as I started to say that it was different from colorless I realised I wasn't actually sure, which is why I paused for a moment.
+theASMRnerd BTW when tou make an Oath Fat pack oppening. The new symbol "the diamond mana" is colorless only mana. Now i you have a gray circle with a number it's called Generic mana (can be payed by any mana) and the diamond is collorless only mana.
>Gideon on the fatpack >Talks about Gideon in the book >Makes the Gideon deckbox >Opens the Gideon pack Nick, do you Like Gideon? :^) I miss your MTG openings man, hope you bring these back sometime
Me experiencing video games: *AWW YEA EAT SOME MAGIC DUST YA BUTT BERRY I JUST BEAT UR FACE DOWNTOWN BOIIII!!!* Me experiencing video games at night: *this is very relaxing.* Another great video!!! ^^ Meow!
+Magic ASMR I use a Canon G16. I bought it primarily as a pocketable travel camera, but it does 1080p 60fps video and it looks pretty good. I usually do a little color-correction in post as well.
***** thanks for the reply!! I've been doing some research and it says some cameras have a video duration limit?? seems like yours doesn't have a limit? BTW does it overheat?/ thanks!!!!!
+Magic ASMR It does have a limit, and it's a bummer. I just use sneaky cuts to hide it. I've read there's a modified firmware you can download for it that removes the limit. I've never run into overheating issues, but perhaps you might if you removed the recording limit, I'm not sure. Anyway, I work around the limit and it's fine, but it is a bit of a pain.
Hey dude. The work you do is absolutely amazing. I loved your Witcher 3 video and I think you should carry on making some Witcher 3 videos. I have uploaded some graphics mods which make the game look like E3 2014 footage. It may interest you as it highly improves the graphical quality and could make an awesome video for your channel. Anyways keep up the great work and hope your channel keeps growing!
+PlaceholderParadise Yeah, I know. It's the autofocus on my camera, and it's really irritating. I have my mic mounted on top of my camera, and the vibration of the autofocus motor seems to transfer into the mic. I added a felt pad to the mount to try and reduce it, but it didn't seem to help much. I'll have to try something else.
I remember when I was a kid I used to save money every 2 months or so and buy boxes not bigger than that, but they came with like 30 or 40 booster packs. Now the just come with 9 and call them "fat packs"? Man, times have changed. Now, as I said "when I was a kid" that means I did not have $350 as I see on Amazon for a box of 36. Anyway, great video.
+Tochu I know, but a "fat pack" sounds like more than a "booster box", at least for me. When I played there were no fat packs, and booster boxes were not $350, I would have never been able to afford that as a kid. Seems like even though I have much more money now than my family used to have back in the day. I would not be able to afford to play Magic again. I could buy a great shotgun or a handgun for the price of a booster box or even build a pretty decent rifle.
+RBGJoe I'm not sure what you saw for $350. You can buy a booster box of Battle for Zendikar on Amazon for $95. The game is still crazy expensive, of course.
+RBGJoe Booster boxes of 36 packs still exist, and they're about $100. Still more than I can afford to spend on a single video, but if I could I probably would. Fat packs aren't great value from a cards perspective, but I think all the extra bits make for nice sounds and a good ASMR video.
***** ***** I just searched for Magic booster box on Amazon and saw the first results and they were all above the $330 mark. Now that you guys clarify the price I can understand how I was able to afford them when I was a kid. Thank you both and I think I'll stay away from Amazon.
+TwistedBishop I honestly have no idea why UA-cam doesn't give the option for 1080p30 on 60fps videos. Since it doesn't, I would have to re-render at 30 fps and re-upload, and then have 2 versions of every video, which seems really silly. I'm not aware of any other way, but I'll look into it.
+theASMRnerd It's okay if it's a problem, I was hoping it was just a checkbox somewhere. I'm sure there aren't many people who share this quirk of mine. I can live with 480p.
I wish i had friends who like to play magic. I bought a bunch of packs like 2 years ago, but sadly i didn't know anyone who liked magic so i decided to quit right after a couple of weeks.
+GriffinLKVW Yes, 1080p60. Glad you like it! The camera is a Canon G16. Not super high-end, but good lighting, exposure, and white balance go a long way.
I don't have any planned, but it's been a long while, hasn't it? I'm not really playing these days, but perhaps I can do a booster pack opening or two, and see what's new :)
Are you going to make a fallout 4 ASMR? Please dont do what nearly all other UA-camrs do like saying: absolutely man or yeah i was thinking of doing that, then next thing you know its Been like 6 months and it never happens so please be honest. Also sorry for my bad English its not my first language
+stephen butrej I understand your frustration, but let me share something with you. I'm guilty of doing exactly what you describe: promising to do a certain video, and then taking a long time to deliver. I do this because I genuinely WANT to make that video, but often real life gets in the way. I run this channel this for free, in my very limited spare time between work and grad school and surviving. This is a hobby for me, and I do it because I enjoy it, and because I believe it helps people. So if I promise I'll do a video, but it takes a while to arrive...please understand that it's not due to laziness, or forgetfulness, or spite, or any of those things. It's because I have other priorities that demand my time. All that being said...yes, I absolutely DO plan to make a Fallout 4 video, but I can't put a date on it. And your English is just fine BTW :)
+Phteven lol It's intended to be relaxing, and hopefully put you to sleep. Going reaaaaally slow is part of that. If you just want regular 'ol booster pack openings, there are plenty of those around the UA-cams.
+theASMRnerd i know i know and i really like your videos, really do, but the nerdy stuff is the essence of your channel and i sometimes wish to see more cards and less crinkling, cause you get that on every other asmr channel... but your number of subscriber propably gives you right :)
Honestly, I could listen to you making sounds with the box for hours on end. For that alone I always look forward to these. Keep it up!
Man. As someone who has a channel dedicated to these types of videos, I love watching your stuff. Keep it up. You're awesome and one of my inspirations.
I love your vids man, especially these unboxings. Thanks for taking your free time to do these for us.
+mikeawesome3 You're welcome! Thanks for taking the time to write a nice comment :)
I always look forward to your MTG unboxings, you're videos in general have really helped regulate my sleep pattern (I have trouble sleeping sometimes) but these videos always help. Keep up the great work!
+Justin Means Really glad that my videos have been helping you man :) Thanks for watching!
Awesome video!! I know I’m late but this helped me find a fat pack to fit my deck better thank you my man!!
Still my favorite ASMR video to date. Thanks so much
Great video! I knocked out about the 20 minute mark. Watching the other half now. I always find your MTG videos so relaxing.
Nice video! My son and I play Magic all the time. We are really enjoying Zendikar!
+Conjured Fantasy ASMR Very cool! I hope I can share something like that with kids of my own one day.
+theASMRnerd Yeah it is pretty great. We play as often as we are able to. I have a red deck that I am favoring right now and he has a white. They are pretty well balanced.
Considering how hard these sold out, Im just kinda impressed you got your hands on one.
+mogmanexe I found it at Toys'R'Us of all places.
I really want to watch the video, but I keep falling asleep! 😫 (First world ASMR problems! 😅)
My thoughts exactly... keep up the good work, both of you :)))
+DonnaASMR The constant battle between relaxing and interesting! I'm sure you'd agree that sometimes it's hard making videos that are intentionally boring ;)
That's the Good thing about asmr videos though! One video can last days lol. So he doesn't have to make one every day like other channels.
Great video. I would love to see a small example game where you explain the rules. I was never nerdy enough to play Magic but it sure got my interest now.
alani m
Love your videos man, don't stop!
+theresidentone Thanks man!
Awesome video man - 'boosted' my spirits ;)
You just had to 'pack' a pun in there didn't you xD
+ScoutingGinger that was magical
This small 'gathering' of pun enthusiasts makes me happy.
I wanted to contribute a pun, but I'm all tapped out.
+Lit Bytes I've still got a few "cards" up my sleeve
I could would love to watch/listen to you tap and trace all the fatback boxes. My favorite part is when you trace the letters.
Thank you
Yes, been waiting for this =D Thank you.
+Darth Fall Just a little addenendum. Devoid creatures are Colorless much like Artifacts they just need coloured mana to cast.
+Darth Fall Thanks for the clarification! I haven't been actively playing for a while, and as I started to say that it was different from colorless I realised I wasn't actually sure, which is why I paused for a moment.

Can you make another star wars battlefront asmr. Btw keep up the good work!❤️
Hey man, you should do a video like this for the new set in the Amonkhet block! That'd be really awesome!
21:21 if you just wanna see the boosters.
I love the pack opening videos. Have you ever considered doing a pack opening video for hearthstone cards. They do have lore you could read...
you are my favorite asmrers ever! keep making excellent content :D
+DeepFried III Very kind of you to say, thank you!
Just the video I needed to help me fall asleep
+Squiggly Pete ZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I'm really glad to see you doing another Magic video, they're always my favorite ones. I feared they had gone away for good.
+TwistedBishop Nah, they were just on vacation. I'll have an Oath of the Gatewatch video at some point too, but probably not right away.
I'm happy already!! Good night, guys!
Love those unboxing sounds. ^^
I found the sound of the camera constantly focusing to be pretty relaxing actually. ha
And again!!!! Great video man!
+Greg Latka Thanks as usual mate :)
>Gideon on the fatpack
>Talks about Gideon in the book
>Makes the Gideon deckbox
>Opens the Gideon pack
Nick, do you Like Gideon? :^)
I miss your MTG openings man, hope you bring these back sometime
Me experiencing video games: *AWW YEA EAT SOME MAGIC DUST YA BUTT BERRY I JUST BEAT UR FACE DOWNTOWN BOIIII!!!*
Me experiencing video games at night: *this is very relaxing.*
Another great video!!! ^^ Meow!
Well, in this case, cards
BUT STILL!!!
lmfaooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Great unpack video.
Will you be opening any Oath of the Gatewatch? :)
Hey just wondering what camera you use for your videos? Or specifically for this video? Thanks!
+Magic ASMR I use a Canon G16. I bought it primarily as a pocketable travel camera, but it does 1080p 60fps video and it looks pretty good. I usually do a little color-correction in post as well.
***** thanks for the reply!! I've been doing some research and it says some cameras have a video duration limit?? seems like yours doesn't have a limit? BTW does it overheat?/ thanks!!!!!

Just fell asleep to this
i'm going to fall asleep in like 5 seconds haha
Great video! I was wondering if you were planning on making any more of the star wars battlefront videos? They are very good and relaxing.
+Bui Bui Yes, Tatooine and Sullust are still planned. I should probably do those before all the Star Wars hype disappears, huh?
The Tatooine one will be great. I can't wait!
Hey dude. The work you do is absolutely amazing. I loved your Witcher 3 video and I think you should carry on making some Witcher 3 videos.

Is an SOI one coming? EMN is out really soon.
i saw one of the other videos of magic the gathering asmr and i passed out for 5 hours, by meaning pass out i mean fall to 😴
+dragonaspect26 That's the idea :)
+theASMRnerd yea man i llve this ➕ sleeping as well hehe
There is a strange noise going off in the background that sounds a bit like a rudder or something loading. Really good video regardless.
+PlaceholderParadise Yeah, I know. It's the autofocus on my camera, and it's really irritating. I have my mic mounted on top of my camera, and the vibration of the autofocus motor seems to transfer into the mic. I added a felt pad to the mount to try and reduce it, but it didn't seem to help much. I'll have to try something else.
I remember when I was a kid I used to save money every 2 months or so and buy boxes not bigger than that, but they came with like 30 or 40 booster packs. Now the just come with 9 and call them "fat packs"? Man, times have changed.
Now, as I said "when I was a kid" that means I did not have $350 as I see on Amazon for a box of 36.
Anyway, great video.
+RBGJoe Booster Boxes and Fat Packs are different things. Fat Packs have been around since 1999.
+Tochu I know, but a "fat pack" sounds like more than a "booster box", at least for me.
When I played there were no fat packs, and booster boxes were not $350, I would have never been able to afford that as a kid.
Seems like even though I have much more money now than my family used to have back in the day. I would not be able to afford to play Magic again.

Thank you both and I think I'll stay away from Amazon.
Is it possible to get HD resolutions at 30fps? The 60fps stuff always makes me slightly motion sick, so I usually have to bump it down to 480p.
+TwistedBishop I honestly have no idea why UA-cam doesn't give the option for 1080p30 on 60fps videos. Since it doesn't, I would have to re-render at 30 fps and re-upload, and then have 2 versions of every video, which seems really silly. I'm not aware of any other way, but I'll look into it.
+theASMRnerd It's okay if it's a problem, I was hoping it was just a checkbox somewhere. I'm sure there aren't many people who share this quirk of mine. I can live with 480p.
Thanks 😝
+Tyrosine222 You're very welcome!
NICK! Do some EDH Commander videos when Commander 2017 comes out next month!!!!!
oat of the gatewatch is comming! :)
I wish i had friends who like to play magic. I bought a bunch of packs like 2 years ago, but sadly i didn't know anyone who liked magic so i decided to quit right after a couple of weeks.
Is this video at 60 fps? It's beautiful. What camera are you using?
+GriffinLKVW Yes, 1080p60. Glad you like it! The camera is a Canon G16. Not super high-end, but good lighting, exposure, and white balance go a long way.
+theASMRnerd Well done, sir :)
"Unnatural Disaster", somehow hearing that in an asmr video is kinda amusing.
Yay a new vid
Also I hate to say this but first!
So close...
+Doodlefart132 Did you REALLY hate to say that? I don't think you did.
+theASMRnerd you're catching on too quickly.
+theASMRnerd lol ur right
can u do like some type of gaming setup or room tour?
Nice cards
will you be doing more mtg asmr videos anytime soon?
I don't have any planned, but it's been a long while, hasn't it? I'm not really playing these days, but perhaps I can do a booster pack opening or two, and see what's new :)
theASMRnerd Thank you for the reply :) and I hope you do they're one of my favourite types of videos you do
okay i've only watch two of your videos but so far in both you are whispering, whats the deal?
It's just what ASMR artists do.
Are you going to make a fallout 4 ASMR?
Please dont do what nearly all other UA-camrs do like saying: absolutely man or yeah i was thinking of doing that, then next thing you know its
Been like 6 months and it never happens so please be honest. Also sorry for my bad English its not my first language
yeah id like to see fallout 4 asmr
+stephen butrej Your English is better than a lot of UA-cam comments

I need another video ;-;
+Lachlan Nossiter I need to MAKE another video. Been far too long!
***** Been checking your channel everyday :( Oh well! Just means I'll enjoy the next one 10x more ;)
damn 60fps is just wow.
+Joey Cruz Buttery smooth :D
+theASMRnerd yeah
luv ur vids but have got to upload more often bro
Post another video I haven't slept well in 3 weeks
I miss the old card's design...
Do you whisper in all your videos?
Well it is ASMR dude. That or he speaks softly
+Grindaarz wasn't asking you
Thanks! :]
+Xelaris96 +Grindaarz is correct, I whisper or speak softly in all my videos since they're for ASMR.
Thank you for the reply!
Upload more Star Wars Battlefront, please :)
What is that background gurgling noise?
The camera lens focusing
+Alex Snyder +beyblademan1234567 Yeah, it's the camera focusing. It's driving me crazy and I'm trying to figure out how to avoid picking it up.
2015 isn't olden dags
You talk soft
bump
really?! you need 36 minutes to open the first pack but then want to skip the commons? sure, nice logic...
+Phteven lol It's intended to be relaxing, and hopefully put you to sleep. Going reaaaaally slow is part of that. If you just want regular 'ol booster pack openings, there are plenty of those around the UA-cams.

what is this an
ASMR video lol
Yes, that's exactly what it is.
