    Absolutely adore the flavour of this set and a lot of what the cards do, but so glad I’ve resisted the temptation of the ring and left the collectors boxes well alone!

    Unless your opening for cards to play or just want to straight up gamble it's not worth buying these. They are heavily reliant on sol rings and surge foils. Unless you get any of those you won't make anything just a loss. Surge foils are 1 per master case of 24 boxes (144 packs) serialized rings are probably even less. This set is a victim of hyped-inflation

That set made me stop buying mtg boxes all together.

    How many of these cards are actually playable? I've been watching tons of videos like these and it's really nice to see cards with these names on them...but what about playability?
    I get the feeling the prices on most of these cards are going to tank in a few months. As nice as it is to see a Frodo card, it's going to be much less nice to see several dozen Frodo cards sitting next to each other in the bargain bin at your local LGS two or three years from now.

    Awesome? That was terrible. Imagine buying 1 box at $450 and getting $110 in return. The art in this set is amazing. The flavour is great and playing as a standalone pretty darn good. The value just isn’t where it needs to be. Depending on what ring you hit it still might be a loss. Better off buying a gift bundle and following up with singles. You can say you had a ticket in the lottery and still got some playable cards.

    Why does this set have such awful art? I don't care for the race swaps (ok, I admit... Eomer and Eowyn being only step siblings bothers me a little ...) but why does Frodo look like he's 12?! They did the same crap in the movies. He was 50(!) when he left the Shire (he didn't use the Ring up to that point)! That makes his father/son relationship with the young Samwise so weird.

    I don’t know much about MTG, but I love LOTR and I bought a single collector booster from Walmart and pulled a surge foil Balin’s Tomb. I had no idea what it was so I just set it aside next to my DBZ and Pokémon stuff. Came back a day later to look into these cards and was shocked what I pulled. Now I’m learning so much about MTG.

    So I'm confused here, what is being opened here? On tcgplayer, there is 3 different versions of this set? Art series, commander and universes beyond.... Are all three different sets within the same set? So the one ring is in the non commander/art series booster set, which is this set being opened in the video?

    • @MTGNorth
      @MTGNorth  Рік тому +1

      These are the collector boxes of LOTR, all of which are ‘universes beyond’. Art series are simply art-only cards found in set packs. There are 3 types of packs in MTG: draft, set and collector, all belonging to the ‘universes beyond’ aspect of it. When they use other intellectual property, they just label it universes beyond as it’s not original MTG ideas. Commander cards are part of this set, but are only legally playable in the commander format. Commander is the most played format of MTG.

      @MTGNorth  Рік тому +1

      For monetary value, buy singles. Opening packs is always a gamble if you’re doing it for pure finance, one that almost always ends in a loss - just like playing a real lottery! You just end up with at least something by opening MTG or any other TCG/sports card pack. I highly recommend you open whatever product most appeals to you, or stick to buying singles

    In my country, the only legal lottery is held by a statutory board. The percentage of the total prize pool is about 65% of the revenue from the lottery tickets - 35% ends up as profit for said board. WotC has once again made history - Holding a lottery where probably 90% of the money flows to them. Well done!

    • @dofuden
      @dofuden Рік тому +1

      not even close, it costs them money to make these products. Lots of paid labor on many levels. Printers, artists, designers, etc. Then distribution buys from WoTC and they mark it up to the LGS's, then LGS's mark it up to retail and then retail marks it up to other retail... so money is made all the way up the chain. Of a $400 box, I doubt WOTC even makes half after cost in terms of profit. Then they have to pay IP licensing. So yeah, lottery does way better, much cheaper to distribute and manage.

      @MTGNorth  Рік тому

      This is a valid point depending on the channel. However, we time stamp every lotr video, with those timestamps being visible within patreon to everyone who buys in. We don’t put the time stamp process in the final edit as it’s boring content to most viewers, a technicality.
      From a financial point of view, it doesn’t make any sense for us to not show any hit except the one of one. We generate ad revenue and more sales as an LGS showing the hits, the bigger the better. Time stamps are mainly for the one of one, and you better believe we would want to show us pulling that on camera!
