    I discovered your channel a few days ago. I have to say I am impressed. UA-cam is full of MTG lore videos and I've tried watching a lot of them. But yours just WORK for me for some reason.
    Is it the narration, the images, the format? Not sure but it just works. I love it. I very often find myself bored with Standard. However watching these videos sparks joy and makes me go back to playing. MTG lore is just so rich and cool.

    Kaldheim was such a fascinating plane: the ten realms, a plethora of gods, heroes and ancient legendary creatures ... all acting as the stage for an interesting plot with Tibalt's scheming and the Phyrexian threat.
    Unfortunately, thanks to new WotC approach, a week after the release of the set and it was already time to create hype for TSR and Strixhaven, leading to this exciting world with so much potential to be pretty much forgotten leaving hardly any mark. :-(

      @Ratedhbk148 2 роки тому

      I personally hate the new approach, I started in Theros and having 3 sets really let you get into the world and story, norse mythology is my favorite so I wish it would have gotten the same treatment as theros.

    As a midgardian, I'd have to say that Bretgard is my favorite realm here, though the Valkyrie do seem pretty rad.

    Very cool video! 😃 I like Norse Mythology and Kaldheim is amazing! I wonder if we'll ever get a top-down Irish Mythology plane with gods inspired by the Tuatha de Danann, it would be pretty cool! 😀

    • @TheLorebrarians
      @TheLorebrarians  3 роки тому +4

      Thank you, and I totally agree! I think a Roman/Celtic plane will be in the near future based off of the few subtle hints we've gotten. Can't wait

    • @melus5585
      @melus5585 3 роки тому +1

      Waiting for Saskia and Licia's homeplane! 😀 And I wait for Garruk's medieval homeplane too, I'm curious to see how they'll differentiate it from Eldraine, less fairy tales more baloths I guess! 😁

    • @TheLorebrarians
      @TheLorebrarians  3 роки тому +1

      Yes, he's one of my favorite planeswalkers! and we've not spent too much time on his backstory in sets, would love to explore it

    this is late but my favorite is Skemfar. I've loved elves ever since I was a child and since reclaiming my life as a Norse Pagan it's exciting to incorporate my beliefs in my hobbies in a fun and different way. Skemfar let's me enjoy a made up lore where I can have fun and still honor my life. I've met others who tried to do the same thing with their religions/beliefs and I can finally be like "yeah let's have a fun battle." it's amazing.

    Ok so far this is my favorite attempt at MTG stroy telling on UA-cam thus far, and I'm all over this stuff rn. You're voice is nice, stable/level.. I like how you keep the card displays simple, transitions etc. Thank you for doing this!! 🙏

    Gotta agree with many here. I tried watching MTG content in the past but something about your presentation makes it easy to follow and more or less immersive. I would love to a multi part summary of the adventures of the gatewatch through the sets, someday, maybe :P Great channel

    my fiancé finally wore me down with getting into MTG xD. By slowly teaching me how to play little by little and coaxing me to play a round here and there for the 5 years we been together. But it was this box set that finally broke the seal and now I'm enjoying myself playing MTG! he bought two boxes and had me try and build a deck with the common/uncommon to help me familiarize with the cards. And that's how my dwarf deck was born! picked the cards myself while my fiancé helped me synergize it. Now I want to learn more about the lores of MTG!

    • @TheLorebrarians
      @TheLorebrarians  3 роки тому +1

    The realms are so clearly divided into color pairs, reminds me of Ravnica. Are there any other planes that have this level of color pairing?

    • @TheLorebrarians
      @TheLorebrarians  3 роки тому

      The only thing that comes to mind may be the gods and their disciples on theros, although those aren't as neatly divided. Then of course the three color shards/wedges of Alara/Tarkir

    I love to nitpick but because it's not a legendary land it's not the world tree it's a world tree as there are lots of them. But love the videos keep it up

    • @ROMANTIKILLER2
      @ROMANTIKILLER2 2 роки тому +1

      that really bothered me to be honest ... I understand that mechanically speaking legendary lands are a frustrating thing to have in your hand once one is already on the battlefield, but still ... THE World Tree should have been only one: massive flavour fail by WotC!
