Interested in one of those hand crafted wooden deck boxes I showed? They're A quality and you can check out Beau's store here: www.etsy.com/shop/xBeauWoodShop
You should consider reviewing the rigid tool box so good so sturdy virtually waterproof
Awesome thank you, still hoping that you'll one day review Ultra Pro Mythic Edition products they look very nice just not sure about the quality 😁 thank you Professor
Completely off topic. Saw your video about the dragons egg bag. Do you still stand by it being the best on the market? Or is there a better option now?
@@JonSteitzer That is my TA ;)
I wish I had your email so I can send you a wooden deck box I've built.
It's amazing how I excited I get for products I'm never going to buy
Window shopping can be fun!
Mood
For me it’s exciting even if I’m not going to buy any of these products because it shows where the industry is headed and what could be in store next time I’m looking for a storage product.
You never know! I thought the same a few years back and then I suddenly needed a box for my cube. I went back looking for a video of a Gamegenic product that I remembered having watched a few months ago, and avoided scouring the web for a product that would suit my needs
The only thing I've ever bought that he has actually recommended was the quiver. Only because I wanted to carry my 4 Yu-Gi-Oh decks and my one EDH. Not including sleeves cuz everyone just knows dragon Shields are King. But yeah well these products are amazing I'm never spending that much money on it.
Which is kind of ironic when you think about how much money I spend on the actual cards themselves...
I’m addicted to your product review videos. That Lair is enticing!
Cheers, friend!
I didn't know Second Thought channel watched the Professor!
Nice to see two channels I subscribe to intersecting!
Loved the sheer disregard of the UltraPro as an option at the end!
I've seen disposable storage options that are higher quality than... whatever THAT was supposed to be.
That just made me laugh hard for about 10 seconds...
It doesn't even deserve to get the distinction of a failing grade...
@@DraygaFlight A failing grade would imply at least some modicum of effort was put into it. This is quite clearly not the case, ergo no grade.
Yeah. Laughed at how nonverbally witty that was.
A $2 cardboard storage box for bulk cards holds them better than the ultra pro bag LOL.
"The choice really is yours, which of these two product fits your needs." I love that... brutal honesty in a more or less subtle way. XD
Not only does the Lair hold several commander decks, tokens, and dice, but also a twenty-four pack of Crayola crayons, slim coloring books, a deck of Go Fish and Old Maid, snacks, pull ups, wipes, juice boxes, and random Happy Meal toys. What basically was a travel gaming box is now a glorified diaper bag. IT SHOCKINGLY HOLDS UP!
For me that's the ultimate form of quality, when a product accomplish it's main purpose and achieves more uses depending on our needs
it indeed is glorious
You may be onto something there. My gf us diabetic and needs all those things
The comment about how magnets working as some kind of miracle, is an incredible reference and one of the many reasons I love your watching your videos!!
Magnets are amazing. They stick to themselves and other metal surfaces.
@@thiloschreiner6943 As an ICP appreciator and chemist who has taken too many physics classes: Magnets are buck wild.
@@vickygoldsmall1172 ...and somehow attractive ;)
"It's no better than the tote bag that the hippie co-op grocery store gives you to carry your cage-free eggs and kombucha home in." Damn the Prof a savage boi. I love it!
There is something incredibly comforting knowing that the prof still does the deckbox vids
Ultra Pro calls the Deluxe Gaming Trove heavy duty, but it looks more like it's heavy doodie
Dang, I wish I'd thought of this line.
Feel free to use it for a future review!
I nearly fell off of my chair with the pros for the ultra-pro.
Laughed so hard in had coffee out my nose!
I had to rewind to find it! Great!
Same!...
I can think of several ways someone could force you to buy it. Does that earn it an F?
@@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai See me waving my hand and listen: "This is not the box your looking for!"
I have one of the games lair and I have around 8 table top games in it. One night ultimate werewolf, splendor, exploding kittens (and all its expansions), codenames, machi koro 2, love letter, sushi go, and coup and with there accessories and all sleeved. It's amazing! I have done the shake test and it never came open. Only problem I had is the top doesn't like to stay in the dice tray form sometimes
That's a brilliant idea for all the little games in my collection.
that laugh of pure joy and relief after the gamegenic didn't explode from a proper shake is a mood I'm going to carry for the rest of the day
Prof, we should make a Cyberpunk themed travel deck box. The highest of qualities. The Punkest of cyber.
Are you gonna hype it up and tease it for 8 years then release it only for us to find out that it's as bland and boring as luke warm hot dog water?
O brother rgb lights and lcd that plays the deck name and can have up to 4 life totals w/ poison counters. That shit will sell.
@@samolivero5522 if prof is down, I know some people who know some people who make bad ass back backs.
So maybe 18 months?
@@CHEFPKR I'd rather see an MTG themed back pack, I don't want to show any support towards CDPR after the clusterfuck they released.
Cyberpunk is more so a sub genre of science fiction than only CDPR’s game of the same name. Neon Dynasty sits on the more fantastical end of the sub genre, alongside the table top rpg Shadowrun.
bought a cards lair 600 after seeing this review and gotta say, it’s been a game changer! I’m a pokémon club professor and so being able to store so many decks in an easy spot makes running club so much better! Plus trays for damage dice and markers!
Ah yes, "heavy duty", the precursor to "military grade" when it comes to price hiking. I love those gamegenic products. Wish I could afford them but they've been my favorites of the products you reviewed so far.
I bought a Watchtower for my main Commander deck because of a video that Prof did and I never looked back on that purchase. It's simply an amazing product that does the job well with style.
I learned that for Gamegenic products it's often worth it to Google a bit. When the Lair 400+ and 600+ released I saved aorund 20€ for each while the 1100+ was actually the cheapest at my LGS.
My favorite joke is "military grade" is cheap enough for mass production.
@@TotyDados Just picked up my first couple Squires recently!
I appreciate the details In the set. The Free Thopter sign is choice
When I look back at my nine years of watching gaming box reviews, I feel happy. I really, truly enjoy these videos and sweet deck boxes. Never buying a bad deck box, or any cute accessory has just been a delight. Thank you!
I seriously love your product reviews. My cards thank you!
You are so welcome!
That game genic 600+ is literally exactly what I was looking for, just ordered one today! Thanks so much for your persistent search for quality items!
how is it bro
This made me laugh out loud so many times. The professor has been on FIRE in the recent content releases and really making me fall in love with the channel. Thanks for this! Also taking a serious look at the gameslair.
These reviews are always great! We got some of the Omnihives at work and I was planning to grab one for my various decks.
I ended up being convinced by the Cards Lair instead for my purposes even though they're both great products. Time to order them up for the store and myself!
As a gamer and someone who works at an LGS it's always great to have these reviews so we don't end up getting junk products.
Damn. GameGenic continues and continues to impress me with every new product. May their quality never slip.
3:05 Literally was opening a bottle of kombucha right as you said "Kombucha". The timing was impeccable.
There's something nostalgic about a Prof review. Was re-watching one of the old videos and it blows me away how far this channel has come. Still a classic video!
Catching a glimpse of The Professor’s tattoo is the TCC equivalent of the magical moment when you’d catch a glimpse of Gary “Radar O’Reilly” Burghoff’s missing finger while watching MASH.
I do not have any tattoos. Those belong to my TA.
@@TolarianCommunityCollege when are your or your TA's office hours where we could ask questions?
@@TolarianCommunityCollege Likely story. I see now why you wear suits all the time. ;)
@@TolarianCommunityCollege oh well, here I was all ready to make a clever comment about sticking to your guns.
Always love Ultimate Guard products, I have Boulders, a Sidewinder, an Arkhive, a Superhive and a Smarthive. The Onmihive looks awesome as well.
But that Games Genic box! GODDAM!
I’m a little disappointed that Ultimate Guard is making the new Sidewinder, because it means that Boulders don’t fit super snug in the new Omnihive. That was one of the reason I really liked the boulders and Arkhive, they fit so well. Boulders aren’t terribly expensive (though they have gone up in price, but they also introduced more recycling friendly ones so that’s cool) but being able to put them into the Arkhive to carry multiple deckboxes snugly meant nothing was bashing around and it was a quality feel. Now, I may we all just get the Game Genic Dungeon, since it fits more deckboxes and can even fit toploaders.
Thanks prof! I recently got a cube built and I used your reviews to inform me on what was best for me. Truely you have saved me so much time, money and frustration.
I cant believe this guy can make deck box reviewing so fun and enjoyable. It is pure entertainment. Definately subbed!
I'm not even going to lie. I went a little crazy seeing that Gamegenic Games' Lair. That is the most awesome creation to ever grace the storage solution of all hobby games ever. Thank you Professor for your incredible reviews as always!
Hey Prof, I just wanted to say that over the last few years your channel has quickly become one of my absolute favorites. Every video (in my eyes at least) is high quality, and the variance between helping all of us out with figuring out what deck boxes/carriers are the best, to speaking up as a voice for the community, and everything in between, really makes me appreciate every video uniquely. I never thought I'd find myself getting excited about deck boxes and card carrying product reviews, but every second I enjoy immensely.
I remember when prof first reviewed ultimate guard and loved there magnets and there cases. The along came Game Genenic who I'm pretty sure watches all of profs videos and takes them as challenges. Oh you hate how much space deck boxes take up well here our flaps wrap around.
What if I told you that the designer at Ultimate Guard who made all my favorite products...left that company to go design things for Gamegenic?
@@TolarianCommunityCollege I'd not be surprised in the slightest. Everything I've seen from Gamegenic is top quality.
That lair seems great for D&D. It looks like it can hold a variety of sizes of minis, as well as dice, and even comes with a dice tray.
I have no clue why I'm compelled to check out every deck box video you make, but its great stuff Prof Godspeed.
it's amazing that no matter how many varieties of deck boxes I have. I'm always tempted to go buy more after these videos!
Gamegenic strongholds are the pinnacle of deck boxes.
Cannot overstate how much I value your reviews. The thorough detail is often extremely useful and at worst neutral when not relevant for me. Your descriptions help me evaluate and make decisions on things I often can't view in person before buying.
And as a bonus they're also entertaining, and with really solid production. There's irreverence and lightheartedness while always being very serious about key information.
I don't always have something to say, so I struggle to feed the insatiable maw of youtube demanding engagement, but it's been a while since I said I appreciate these so here goes =)
Prof just wanted to let you know that you showing your arm tats and nails in this video inspired me to start saving for the tattoos I've always wanted. Thanks for being you on camera, you've no idea how much it means to me.
Gamegenic has definitely won my heart over the last year. When I found out you can fit Ultra Pro Alcove Deck Boxes in the Gamegenic Dungeon I was blown away. Their plastic deck boxes also feel solid for the price.
We use the plastic gamegenic boxes for our card Lot, we use the color code to keep all of them orgabized by color/type, really useful, and also keep the dust away.
Hi Professor, We need the review of the Gamegenic Cards Lair 1000+ Pro :) It seems to be the storage I have been missing and I will be sure. Your reviews usually goes thoroughly through everything I need to see. For making sure to make a purchase. Thank you for good and thorough reviews. Which many Magic the Gathering players with out a doubt appreciate :)
I feel like the prof's coverage for tabletop game accessories is the best coverage for *any* product in *any* category. I don't think other product reviewers leave as positive an impression on me as the prof does when he gives a good grade and gets passionate and excited about things.
I've been following this channel for years and years and it made me so happy to see him break out in popularity and still going strong today. It shows me that this is a world where dedication to your passions and perseverence can and do pay off.
Just felt like expressing that gratitude for that today.
As an ex-MTG player now turned Digimon player, i really enjoy all the content about deck boxes, sleeves, etc, very entertaining yet has quality info!
17:43 i just felt as happy as the prof for the prof, pure joy
The glee you had when you spun the card lair in the air made me happy I'm not the only one that gets that giddy when something outperforms what it's supposed to be made for
These are my favorite videos you do, Prof. You do so many interesting deck techs, set/card reviews, pack openings, etc. but there is something so nostalgic about your product reviews. I get a large smile on my face whenever a new one drops! Keep up the good work, sir!
It's always nice when Prof goes back to his roots once in a while. Although maybe not always fulfilling all his creative needs to make them, the audience appreciates his candor at fulfilling their information needs.
I loved his genuine surprise when the OmniHive didn’t come open. Seemed to really take him off guard lol. Great Video again Professor!
Omg 18:18 XD
You're so funny! Professor, you are my favorite MTG content creator and I always get stoked seeing that you put out another review video. Your review of the previous Cards Lair is what got me to invest in my 600+ Cards Lair and it's my favorite accessory to date.
17:42 that laugh makes me so HAPPY and laughing too!! Amazing!! ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for being extremely picky in your reviews prof! It is extremely nice to know little things, like if certain items are a snug fit. Or if the item is over engineered, and can take abuse.
You have me convinced now. I was leaning on the fence about but now I'm definitely going to buy the Ultra Pro™ Heavy Duty Canvas bag
The Professor doing informercials, I love the visual I get of that, hahaha
"Do your card dividers just not stay put? is this something you struggle with on a daily basis? Well no more!!" haha
Just want to say, your reviews of GameGenic products got me to start buying them and they have been my favorite from then on to hold my cards. Great vid as always prof 👍
I get a miniature heart attack whenever I see the Professor shake a deckbox. I got a major heart attack when the cards fell out.
Also did the Professor just reference the Insane Clown Posse?
I believe the reference to the magnets thing has become a ongoing joke in most of the deckboxes reviews haha
@@Grungemanu Then clearly I have been slacking and need to watch more deckbox reviews, lol.
@@TheBloodswordsman The prof would probably agree to that, don't miss out any lessons!
18:20 That sass is legendary, Love that you provide a great review service and make me laugh on occasion!
Your reviews never steer me wrong. Thanks for turning me towards Gamegenic binders, Satin Towers, Dragon Shield sleeves, and Aaron Cain deck boxes.
Yes, I've seen quite a few of these episodes over the years lol.
Gamegenic really does an outstanding job with their boxes. I've been using the 400+ one for a while now. Only problem is I've built more EDH since and need another!
Whaaa? Who does that? That's more money to build the decks, then even more money to box those, then more for a box for the boxes!
*sigh* Almost all of us do it.
@@mountainghoti1671 And ultimately, more money to buy/rent a bigger place!
The magnets, how do they work bit gets me every time 🤣
That’s an excellent showing here prof. Just ordered an Omni for my EDH nights with lots of decks that I can’t seem to leave at home.gonna give it a go!
I use a Games' Lair 600+ to store my collection of Commander Decks, plus dice, counters, and tokens. It does the job wonderfully.
I have a Gamegenic CARDS’ LAIR 400+ CONVERTIBLE box after the professor did a video on that and gave it an A+. i love it a lot and it has lowered the amount of boxes that hold my dice and token cards. and now after seeing the Professor review the 600+ box I Think i might invest in that box next. Thank you Professor for showing me new things as always
17:43 I felt your excitement through the screen! I realized I had the biggest grin and happiness that the shake worked out :D
Pushing the first product off of the table just SENT me. Instant subscription lol.
cheers, friend!
Oh my gosh when you swiped the container off the counter I laughed so hard 😂
I've gone for gamegenic boxes and a 4 pocket zip binder for my day to day in a backpack, really pleased with gamegenic products particularly the xl for my edh stuff.
Really wish i could find a good backpack for it all, tough to find one for 5 boxes, a watchtower, a stronghold, a 4 pocket binder, a mat with case and a life tracker.
Gamegenic is simply amazing.
Are you going to review their portfolios/binders? I was wondering how they compare to ultimate guard and ultrapro ones
Stay tuned!
You can just feel the rush he’s getting while he’s shaking that last box! Love the review prof!
Prof does such an effective job at product reviews that it helps businesses learn what the consumer desires so they can develop better quality products to meet the needs of gamers. Thx Prof.
Thank you for doing up these reviews! Always something to look forward to over the weekend! Especially since I've caught Covid19, perusing through your past content and binging really helps keep me company through the isolation. Keep it up!
The bad wolf, and free thopters in the background had me rolling. XD
Shake it, baby! Lol, thanks for making these product reviews. I am constantly looking for more storage options for cards and it helps someone shows the experience of having one of these card storage boxes without me having to shell out lots of money to find out the hard way if it's worth it. 👍
Still number one product reviews on the internet. Never stop doing these Prof.
Great analysis, Prof! In the future, could you put the names and timestamps of each product in the description? I can't always watch the video with audio, so it'd make it easier to get your feedback. (I completely understand it if you don't want to do so, since I imagine UA-cam rewards creators who maximize watch time.)
@15:52 You took me back 12 years and I thank you for that
@18:15 The shade..
I love Game Genic, they are pretty much the only brand of deck boxes I buy now
Very few things bring me as much joy as watching The Professor perform a shake test.
I’m waiting on my omnihive to be delivered. I held my breath during the shake test, but was pleasantly surprised! Thanks for the review, Professor!
I was just as shaken as the box afterward. That was intense.
Hahaha I love the subtle push off the table as he states compairs the other two.
Professors gleeful laugh when the nub worked made my whole day.
The subtle slide off the table is it for me. Amazing work as always, Prof.
That slide at the end! Perfection!! Keep being you, Professor. Thank you for your love of "nerd-dome!"
Hah the ICP reference was awesome! Great video prof!
My Girlfriend got me the Games Lair 600 for my Birthday. The amount of times I have shown people how hard I can shake the whole box without anything happening is ridiculous lol. Thanks Babe❤
These are some of my favourite kind of videos on UA-cam! Always a good watch
Your reviews are always so entertaining and helpful. The dice tray alone made me fall in love immediately with the Cards Lair. As an Arkham Horror LCG player, this case has tremendous possibilities.
just purchased 3 Dewalt DWST14825, 1-71-189 tool boxes and absolutely love them. Super Durable, easy to hold and the clip onto each other so you can carry multiple boxes with one hand. Each one will comfortably hold 10 100 card decks. 20 dollars a piece for them.
The latch isn't level. But it also looks like your shelves aren't (all) level, which distracts me immensely xD
Glad to see you cover the omnihive. I need this for my commander decks and wanted to know how many actual deck boxes fit as I have many favorite different deck boxes. Take care prof!
Bad kitty, sliding that canvas bag off the table at the end….Tut tut tut.
I laughed really hard at that moment tho
There are so very few videos that actually make me laugh out loud, but the "which of these two products part" had me dying. 18:18
I love your testing videos; I don't even consider buying a card gaming product until I hear what you say about it.
I love my Dragon Shield sleeves and my Satin Towers! Now I'm rewatching videos to figure out what deck boxes I should get for my expanding pauper collection, as I've been using the Dragon Shield boxes that their sleeves come in.
I get more excited for these videos than set reviews! That shows how good these reviews are!
The Games Lair is incredible. I use it for MTG, d&d, and 40k. It holds EVERYTHING
Love my omnihive i just bought. I have 3 modern decks, 5 commander decks, (in boulders) and a dice bag with plenty of space left over. It event fits in the main pocket of my L.L. Bean highschool bag that holds all my mtg stuff and trade binders. Thanks professor for the review! Wanted to come back and let you know your why i bought it from my LGS
Your videos are really the best. I only know about new products from watching you and I only know what to buy after I watch. Thanks Prof!
Never did I ever think I'd hear Prof make an ICP reference. Well played good sir! XD
we actually bought our own games lair recently and it has been an absolute dream to use so far.
I picked up a Gamegenic Cards Lair after seeing this video and I'm very satisfied with it. I mainly play D&D these days instead of MtG but I like to print out magic items and monsters on cards for ease of play and the Cards Lair is great for holding everything I need. The side trays are perfect for dice and tokens and the whole thing really is as sturdy and high-quality as it looks in the video. I think the top section next to the card space could have been a bit larger and/or deeper, and the clear plastic insert in mine was very slightly knicked (but still works). I also wish it came in more colors. Don't get me wrong, I got the blue one and it looks great, but it would have been nice to have had the option of a green, yellow, or purple version. I'd give it a rating but I'm waiting to see how it holds up under a few months' wear and tear, but if it DOES hold up then it's an easy 9/10.
Laughed out loud when you shoved the carry case off at the end. So casually done.
I just picked up the lair about a month ago for my Khans cube. I love it. Does the job perfectly, and looks very stylish. I use the draws to hold set tokens, dice, land. And I have Khans One Pager print outs that I store in the top compartment to introduce players. I would definitely recommend it to cube builders!
