Do you fancy gifting this set to someone 😅 because I'm never going to be able to afford it 😢
Nice, code does not work!
I have a better question: is it worth it to support a greedy and incompetent company like Hasbro? How about that?
audio sync is off in the intro ad read fyi
This is one of the few sponsors on the platform that's actually interested me so I think this would be a good place to ask, does anyone have any thoughts/experiences with their product?
Wizards honestly needs to reintroduce msrp. The prices that we the consumer get charged are honestly ridiculous
MSRP doesn't really fix that. It'd be nice to have mind, but it reaaaaally doesn't fix that.
@@Earthboundmike It solves it by giving a baseline guarantee at big box retailers, which keeps people honest
I keep saying it over and over… MSRP should be brought back
But Mooonniiieeeeeees. Think of the MONEY! WotC has to make MONEY.
First billion dollar sales year last year. They have no plans of stopping that train. Capitalism has crept in and is here to stay 😅
Dang, I never truly realised the scope of these decks until you compared them to entire sets. Its pretty mind blowing that they put a whole sets worth of new cards in only 4 decks.
these days they pump out sets so fast I think this would be a better way for everyone involved.
I agree. I think I want to vuy all of them so I can deconstruct, and make the ultimate 5 colour deck with ALL of the doctoros... I bought the green white blue one, and so I already have 8 :)
@@WoahCabbages you don't need a 5 colour deck to include all the Doctors, all 15 Doctors (including the War Doctor and Fugitive Doctor) fit within WURG, Black isn't needed unless you decide to include the Valeyard (who doesn't even have the doctor keyword)
@@Eclipsed_Embers Oh, cool! I didn't know that. That makes it a whole lot easier haha
@@WoahCabbagesOmnath locus of creation - Doctors.
A great and well thought out review, and it means so much that you liked the decks! Looking forward to seeing what wild decks people build ❤
You and your team did justice to the franchise. As a fellow fan of Dr Who, thanks!
@@MrJustintreat Tell that to Hasbro. They don't care about their IPs' quality and decency.
@@AxsorXI life's too short to get serious about a card game. People die every day because they don't have water or food. I'm not about to complain about pieces of cardboard.
@@MrJustintreat No. I don't complain about pieces of cardboard. I complain about a greedy and incompetent company which fools its "fandom".
@AxsorXI based on how packed my FNM was this week, not sure how accurate the "incompetent" claim is. I couldn't tell you how often recently I've heard someone say "I got into magic because of the lord of the rings set" or "the lord of the rings set brought me back to magic." I get the "I want my Magic to stay magic" opinion, but UB has been explosively popular and is likely to be the economic engine that propels the game to new levels of success
I'm honestly a little blown away at how well they managed to theme these.
Potentially 7 new decks in the works...I may have a problem 😅Edit: Seeing current prices, glad I snagged these at presale.
Oh wow, I actually hadn’t considered Everybody Lives + Isochron scepter. My playgroup is going to thank you for sure!
Be careful, push too hard and your playgroup will discover Wipe Away
Artifact removal exists
Everybody lives! + The Pandorica. The 2 cards I was most excited for, both in the same precon. I’m not surprised Time Whimmy is the most expensive, I’m just disappointed
If you then animate it and add Unwinding Clock you get the game that never ends, or at least until someone draws exile removal
@@UniGya well that exile removal, needs split second. Because the scepter gives itself hex-proof.
It blows my mind that David Tennant's face makes Timey-Wimey 25 dollars more expensive for no reason. Salt aside, my biggest hope is that this will encourage non-MTG players to try out commander just because they are Whovians. I am the inverse. I'm getting into Doctor Who because of my dad being a lifelong fan since he was 7, my love of MTG and the chance to share his passion as a result. Thanks for the highlights in your SUP game. And thank you to Gavin and the team for doing something so cool.
That's also the deck with Everybody Lives innit
A lot of people got into Who with the 9/10/11 seasons, and feel it went to shit somewhere between 12 and 13. Not surprising timey-wimey is the most popular given that.
@@andrewkelly1337and farewell and the expensive boros land.
I don’t think that’s the reason, I think it’s fair to say that timey-wimey is clearly the deck everyone wants vs the newer doctors or older doctors. Wish MSRP was still in effect but that’s how a market works when there isn’t suggested pricing.
It also has wedding ring. Deck is stacked
I haven't bought a commander product in AGES and I'm so happy that they made a suspend deck with my Favorite Doctor(s). I'm very excited to play this deck and the cards that it comes with
My only disappointment with these is that they didn’t make a Companion that was two Colours that could pair with a Doctor to make a Four Colour Deck so we could have a Four Coloured Doctors Deck with all the Doctors.
i think this should be the way full UB sets should go; a smaller, and concise cardpool with a higher quality mechanical feel and more original designs which are all available with the commander decks. dont get me wrong, the lotr set was fine, but it felt very watered down in terms of mechanical aptness with the theme of the deck.
The one obvious flaw in these is that they are missing one of the most popular Companions, Captain Jack.
Oh I didn't spot that. Captain Jack is a real miss. Maybe they're going to print him in whatever thing they make to include the 15th doctor? Fingers crossed.
@@AlaricHeissUnfortunately due to controversy around his actor, the BBC likely gave a hard no on Jack.
@@AlaricHeiss Nah, pretty sure he's missing for the same reason Micky is... And I don't see that changing.
actor had purportedly (and later apologized for so guessing that kinda confirms it) harassing cast and crew on set by flashing them. i think hasbro and the bbc want to stay away from that
Clarke I get. Barrowman, not so much.
I feel like it's really important to point out that the Battlebond lands are NOT in these decks. The Midnight Hunt/Crimson Vow slow lands are here, which are still great.
I’m actually more surprised they added the Slow lands than the Battlebond lands. Slow lands actually see competitive play, Battlebond lands that are exclusive to commander
I was really shocked to hear that the battlebond lands were in these products. Thanks for clarifying that that was mistakenly said.
Wait what ????????
@janmelantu7490 The battlebond lands should just be a given for these IMO, like arcane signet, sol ring, etc.
Bizarrely, I wanted to get back into MTG (haven't played in 20 years, had cards in primary school), wanted to try commander, and I'm a big fan of doctor who. I get migraines so I dont go out much, but walked into a shop yesterday, bought one on impulse, went down to a card shop for sleeves and encountered an entire group of people playing it. Ended up buying all four for the collection and I think that single handedly got me back into it. I really liked the way the effects made sense in relation to their themes. Missy turning things into cybermen, Silence phasing in and out, time lock stealing cards so they can't be used for several turns, two step cards using concepts like Doctor Falls - No More is genius.
(I live in Australia, everything is a mark up 😂)
I can’t wait to get my hand on that Captain Jack Harkness card!
… wait, what did you say? It’s not?!
It’s called “The Face of Boe” lol
I think, as someone who really really likes preconstructed decks, this is one of my favorite releases. Right out of the box, the mana bases and variety of spells and power levels feel balanced. We played a game with two DW decks, an Ikoria upgraded precon and a D&D themed dungeon deck and it felt like everyone was on solid ground.
Hear hear. I've seen several gameplay videos, and golfished all 4 decks together. Very well balanced, and not one deck felt like it could be the weakest. And with the multitude of commander options right out of the box of each deck, no one will ever get dull playing these.
They’re so fun to play with too!
Well, they finally got me. I didn't feel the need to buy any of the universe beyond stuff until the doctor who sent him out. I bought all four of the precons for $220 from my local game store, I was okay with paying a little bit of a markup. Now I have to decide if I'm going to leave them unopened, or play with them. I totally want to do both but I didn't want to buy two sets LOL
Play with them, but keep the boxes intact to display on your shelf. That's what I'm doing. Best of both worlds
Did I instantly grab the Tenth Doctor set bc I recognized Actual Things from when I was paying attention to DW? Yes.
Am I still gonna watch this video--but have no regrets about the purchase, because I bought it for Me and not for Value? Also yes.
Regardless about how you feel about the incorporation of Doctor Who. How they handled the collector boosters is perfect. No exclusive cards like in set boosters or higher just different Art treatments and foiling. Sure you could argue the Serialized cards are exclusive but they are are just functionally the same card without serialization
I'm not a fan of the series, but I can say the cards are super cool. And it's really fun watching fans (like you prof) nerd out over the cards and everything built into the set,
Say what you will about whether Magic should have crossover sets or not and all the other issues with the commander precons over the years but the amount of care and detail put into them will always impress me. I do wish they would just do a damn regular msrp already for them though.
I will say, coming from someone who loves Doctor Who and never actually played magic - I’m looking forward to these. Not only can I learn a new game, which I’m looking forward to, but I can play Doctor Who as a trading card game in physical product which has been a dream for me for years. I’m so happy that this is happening and I can’t wait to play.
These are surprisingly bad fpr new players (which is weird for a crossover product) They use a lot of keywords, which do not have reminder text, which explains what the keywords mean. And Commander isn't the easiest intro to Magic either
Well before WOTC printed their Doctor Who decks with all 15 Doctors, another company came out with an earlier game that had only the first seven DOCTORS at the time that the earlier game came out.
@@oliver5732doctor who fans are unlikely to be deterred by wider reading, we're obsessed enough for looking up a keyword and committing it to memory is nothing
I think the fact that people will be cracking the collector boosters of this to search for the serialized dr cards, is going to mean that the supply of singles for these decks is going to be much larger, and the single prices will plummet much faster compared to WH40k.
I'm waiting for Ixalan.
But UB wise, I can see myself getting Final Fantasy.
Same lol
Can't wait!
wonder how many sephiroth they're gonna make
thats the big one im waiting on, i hear itll focus mostly on 7 and 16
@@AlessandroAltosoleChannel I'm going to run 4 Sephiroth in my commander deck, don't care 😁😆
A better question is “should I buy 4 copies of each deck so I have 4 copies of every card” 😂
No, you're going to support Hasbro even more doing that. Don't support that awful company.
Honestly, if you're considering that, you may as well play the collector box game.
Huh, why would you need or want 4 copies? :s
@@GigaBoostlegacy I guess but just proxy yea
@@AxsorXI lmao if you don't want to support Hasbro at all, why bother watching content about their products?
Much obliged, Prof! I was on the fence because of how bloated the prices on these tend to get, but the evaluation really helped me decide that these decks were for me.
For me a sign of a well put together preconstructed deck is a good manabase. This lineup has it PACKED.
Pre-ordered the Timey-Wimey deck months ago for $50.29 plus tax from Amazon, and I'm very pleased with that given current prices!! This is going to be for my wife, to try and get her to play - she loved the 9th / 10th / 11th Doctor era, so I figure this is my best bet to get her into Commander :) Picked up a nice color of Dragon Shield Dual Matte sleeves too.
I recommend Sapphire, its very timey wimey wibbly wobbly
I think the collector thing is weird but when you have the context of them only being cards that are already in the commander decks it’s helps a bit just cause you know you’re not missing anything really, still really weird-
But I do like that they did Planchase in this set for this UB, I really hope that they do that for the other crossover decks after this especially fallout. I’m really excited for fallout especially cause that’s the one that I actually know anything about before they came out lol. I’m really excited to see how they do that, I really hope that set gets that much care as Dr Who got because this was just so well made. I can totally see VATS or S.P.E.C.I.A.L. Being a keyword for that set, just really excited to see how they do this
If we’re going to get BBC sci fi shows in MTG, can we get some Red Dwarf? ;)
I miss $55 CAD commander decks. These are hardly affordable here.
In my country we have pay 1.6 times the price of every product of MTG. A $60+ product here cost $100+
I was expecting 60$ CAD here based on every video I've seen here talking about pricing. Went today and the cheapest one was 80$ all the way up to $120. I wanted to buy all 4 for the awesome value but wasn't expecting to have to drop $400.
Yesterday I went to one of my local shops and they had all the decks on the shelf marked up 70$ each, not sure if this was just a “early access” markup or if this was the price they are sticking to 🤔
70 is probably what the price point wizards had in mind
I love in Oregon. And my LGs in Salem overprices the decks based on tcg prices. Right now the dr who ones are out of stock. I actually went to visit mox boardinghouse in Portland and found Blast from the Past for $45.99. Mox also sells boosters for much lower prices of other sets as compared to my LGS in Salem, including singles prices. It’s so wild. My LGS has an old ikoria 2020 commander deck still at over $75 dollars. They rarely if ever do discounts on old product. I’d rather drive to places to buy my stuff than buy online but it feels that’s how it has to be to give my budget mercy.
Edit- looked up the ikoria one online (Ikoria Commander 2020: Enhanced Evolution) and the lowest price on tcg is $35. Amazon also still has it for $70 ish bucks. Am I missing something or does this deck contains some high value cards to retain this high price?
I pre-ordered these decks for $171 before the majority of the cards were spoiled... I want to buy a second set to leave these 4 original, then deconstruct to make 15 new decks, 1 for each Doctor... then buy 1 of each doctor to make a Jodah Doctor deck... I LOVE THESE DECKS!!!
While I still feel a little weird about Doctor Who in M:TG because of the theme (as it isn't fantasy), this is one of my favorite sets ever made. It really shows the love and care the designers made for the show and giving us fun and flavorful cards in the process.
You must have missed the last couple sets, as science-fantasy has always been a staple in MTG, and it is a close-enough analogy to science-fiction that the line has been blurred tremendously. New Kamigawa is literally a techno-magic paradise with literal computers and an Internet, and the Mirrodin sets have always been very close to science fiction with artificial beings and sentient machines.
@@Starwarsgeek12 I feel like it works in the case of Neon Dynasty and even in Warhammer 40K as the both have their own magic systems in place. Doctor Who doesn't really have that imo. Still, I love the set anyway.
@@Starwarsgeek12I guess I’m wondering about the purist view of defining fantasy as a newish player. How does the concept of dinosaurs fit in with people’s definition of fantasy since there were a couple of sets about dinosaurs in the past with ixalan ? I’m also not understanding how dr who isn’t considered fantasy? Fantasy to me is such a broad term. Dr who is the most “fantasy” you could possibly get. It’s a science fantasy. They travel through time to different eras. Isn’t that essentially planes walking lol. Also if it wasn’t clear I’m agreeing with you but questioning the main OP who you replied to
@@Justadadonthetok I consider it the same thing as Star Wars, which is also science-fantasy. Yes there are lasers and space ships and aliens, but there is also a magic-adjacent force that only certain people can use and does *unexplainable* things. Doctor Who is the same shit, it's a stretch to not call the Time Lords magical, maybe it's their DNA that lets them regenerate but that's a pretty magical thing.
I was playing a couple of games earlier on with the masters of evil deck
I managed to win in both games, partially with the help of some plainchase cards
Absolutely worth the price I spent on it
I just went to watch the 2020 precon video and honestly?
Dude, you're looking better than ever. You look more handsome now than in 2020. Keep it up, you're gorgeous man!
I’m still pretty iffy on the UB stuff outside of fantasy franchises. DnD and LotR felt like they got into MtG’s identity well enough, particularly DnD. The Warhammer decks were fun to play with, most of the other UB stuff just feels out of place, though. As for the DW decks, I got to use the Timy-Wimy deck last night and I really enjoyed the mechanics and design. I’m a big fan of the RTD and Moffit runs of the show, so I went ahead and but the bullet on that deck. Manipulating time counters is a mechanical space I haven’t ever messed around with. I have to admit, the design is solid on this set despite the reservations I have about UB. The flavor was freaking on point.
My FLGS let me get all four at $45 a piece.
Masters of evil is awesome, just got back from my LGS and it was so fun to have an army of daleks and cybermen.
I think there’s a reason for these being so well crafted: Dr. Who is such a beloved IP, if these were treated extremely poorly, it would reflect on the BBC and potential for defamation on both brands
Prof you are deciding which deck I buy and you did not disappoint
Great video Prof! I’ve particularly enjoyed your recent Doctor Who related content. Your passion for both mtg and Doctor Who has been infectious!
I got all 4 commander decks in a bundle from Card Kingdom for $220, so $55 each, which I felt was a fair price for what I would be getting. As always, your insight is appreciated! Thanks for all you do.
Colin Baker alone should make it worth it.
Unironically so.
Often when buying a Commander precon I like to buy the corresponding Ultra Pro Sleeves and Deck Box and sometimes even playmat to theme it all out, but sadly, at least for now, I cannot find any Dr. who product on Ultra Pro's online shop :/ ah well
Woah, those amazon prices... my LGS sold them for $55 CAD ea
I bought all four for 160€ in Germany. The prices have gone up though,but not that much.
Before the video even starts, I wanna say I think these decks are a slam dunk. Definitely worth it to me. I picked up Blast from the Past on release day.
Ya know what, now that you've framed it like a set sold in 4 separate chunks, I think I actually prefer that over normal set releases. The idea of being able to directly buy every single card in the set and just have them without any duplicates or gambling is really appealing to the collector in me. Plus it's made the collector boosters feel better to open because I'm not chasing game pieces, just skins for my game pieces. I've been really down on Wotc lately but this product is a 10/10. Also, planechase should just become a standard commander precon thing. It makes commander way more fun and I bet Wotc could market collecting universes.
wish this video would’ve been posted before my lgs sold out 😅
Heyyyy, look at that. An honest, passionate, balanced review, exactly as expected.
Literally ordered Timey Wimey halfway through this and am planning to pick up the rest here and there. So stoked for this set.
Yeah timey, although expensive, has some amazing commander cards
This set got me into magic. I now made a really fun deck that uses the Prismatic Bridge with all 15 Doctors with Gallifrey Stands. The best compliment I had with it was "wait that was all in your upkeep?" during a game.
The more I see these IP cash grabs.... the more I'm convinced Magic is already dead
I got the timey wimey from target for 65, which isnt great but compared to the 80+ on tcg and card kingdom WITHOUT SHIPPING, getting off with 65 isnt too bad
BRING BACK MSRP !! 🗣
Decks so good with a theme just so awful -_- dr who is boring af if you're not 50
Played these tonight - absolutely fantastic fun. The villains deck seems pretty nuts, but I had a lot of fun with Blast from the Past - The Sixth Doctor plus Romana II as your commander combo is hilarious, creating three copies of stuff like Sol Ring, other Doctors etc., even some of the Sagas can be gamewinning to copy. I very nearly managed to win with Gallifrey Stands, but didn't quite manage it. Much fun!
What's his criteria for giving something an A+? Based on his review, I thought this would have been for sure.
Amazon's Magic prices are always overpriced unless there is a dump. I was able to preorder all 4 Doctor Who Commander decks out the door for $195.00 tax and shipping included. I appreciate you giving the breakdown of all 4 decks. The decks looks like a lot of fun to play with. I have been a Doctor Who fan since 1970. Thank you for the video Professor.
Its only worth it to buy once they keep reprinting these decks. As the 40k ones are being reprinted.
My planechase cards had a duplicate from Blast from the Past commander deck. Had to send a ticket with WoTC about the missing Planechase card due to the duplicate
I really wish i was a Dr Who fan because you make this look so amazing. Ive u fortunately never watched an episode, but ive no doubt i would have loved it. I really am happy for the fans. Im a huge LotR fan, so i know the hype and love it :).
I mean, you can still try and watch it if you want to
@videogamesworld01 I would, but life is too busy a this stage. Once I get free time, It's on my list of to watch! :)
I pre-ordered my 4 decks from Amazon asap, and got them for $200 total. So thankfully I got them for $50 each.
WotC improving mana bases in precons? I thought I'd never see that day!
I know tv shows used to say "don't touch that dial" but I have no idea what a dial is
There used to be like 6 channels on TV so there was a dial that clicked in to each channel. Was probably a carry over from radios that also used dials to go through a range of frequencies.
As much as I'm interested in these decks like the Warhammer 40k ones, $200+ is way too much for a set of 4 commander decks.
It sure beats Amazon’s and TCGPlayer’s assk 😂
:::::rolling on the floor laughing:::::
Price to buy the boxes: $$$$
Price to pay to sit down with my dad who introduced me to Dr. Who and teach him Magic? Priceless.
I’m so glad I found these for under $50 presale because these look absolutely amazing. I think they did really well with this set overall, and, as Whovian, I’m happy that this was the love letter I was hoping it would be and not the soulless shill it could’ve been
I love hearing the joy in your voice as you talk about all the upsides of this products!
14:17-15:18 Don't get too excited, the Universes Beyond sets like this tend to get the better reprints over normal precons. We'll be going back to precons that don't include decent land bases/talismans right after this set. Although, to be fair, Heroic Intervention did get reprinted in the Galea precon, which wasn't Universes Beyond.
You guys r lucky. It costs $100 per commander deck at all retailers in my country(Aus). I only ended up getting Timey Wimey and Masters of Evil. Been an avid Whovian since I was 7(Voyage of the Damned was a vivid memory of mine/was the 1st episode I watched) so this was a MUST BUY for me.
As someone who just got into magic just because of these decks.
I have currently spent
+ $70 Timey wimey
+ $35 paradox power
+ $35 Blast from the past
+ $40 Masters of evil
+ $223 booster box
I really love everything I got in total and yes, it was a bit of money, but the showcase cards are to die for imo
Just like the warhammer set, this is the one exception to my rule of not buying recent precons. The amount of original and flavourful designs is amazing. Ive already got all but paradox
Great review as always!
For precons like these with so many card designs, I would find it helpful to list the price for the reprints separately from the price for the newly designed cards, as those pre-release prices seem to be rather meaningless since they change so drastically shortly after release.
I am looking at these DW decks, then take a look at two of my Universes Beyond decks: Forces of the Imperium and Riders of Rohan. The manabases alone in DW make me feel, that I was scammed somewhere sometime, when buying decks from previous two lineups. Dont know what’s up with this UB series, that it is so packed (were wotc afraid of this franchise being less attractive?). I am probably starting to feel for the guys, who are not at all into all of this UB stuf, and just want regular in-universe commander decks to be good (instead of paying ridiculos markups for somewhat immersion breaking products, yet packed as hell).
and another "This product is not for you" looks great, seems fun. Its $400 CDN / $100 each for these. Fyi cmdr 2019 was $45. Id pay maybe $60 for one deck. This just isn't worth it no matter how shiny and new the cardboard is.
Great video! I love that you compared decks with Lord of ther rings and Warhammer. I like that perspective! Well done! God damn it! I did not plan to buy these...
Its a tricky one for me, I am a lapsed Whovian. I stopped watching T.V completely but before I did that Dr Who was the last show I was still watching regularly. Timey Wimey is my Era but I don't like the game play of that deck also its sold out at my LGS. So it is the 13th doctor deck I have my eyes on, I watched plenty of 12th doctor before lapsing so I do know some of the characters. I already have 6 commander decks with a variety of gameplay styles so I am just not sure if any deck I can build with the next would feel unique compared to my other decks. Also usually I hate planechase. But I do like Doctor who and I want to have some of the singles from the set, including some in the 13th doctor precon.
I know nothing about Doctor Who, I just started watching with the 9th doctor.. that said I chose to pick these 4 decks up after watching the latest Game Knights because they all seemed fun to play. also a large decision in my choice to buy these was that my LGS wasn't price gouging and I got all 4 for $209.99 pre tax
Universes Beyond is such an awesome concept and embodies MAGIC in Magic. Why would you not want Optimus Prime & Gandalf fighting alongside Ian Malcolm and a Brotherhood of Steel paladin while fending of Ezio Auditoire and a Chocobo??
THANK YOU. I LOVE my Hadoken lightning bolt, and nobody is going to poop in my punchbowl about it :)
unless you're being sarcastic, in which case, don't poop in my punch bowl!
I got super lucky that I bought all 4 on launch for $50 each. the next day, one of my friends went to buy the timey-wimey deck, and it was sold out everywhere. i get that that one is saught after for "everybody lives," but damn.
I ended up getting the Tenth Doctor for $65 a Wal Mart, this deck is by far the best of the Commander decks and the chances of ever getting this for $50 ever again is pretty much zero. The rest I'll get cheap if I want them but don't care if I don't.
When I get a pre-con, I usually don’t look threw it, I just play and read the cards as I go, but when I got one of these deck, I sat down and spent like 2 hours looking threw the cards and enjoying the art and the amazing incorporating of the lore into the cards! I had a big smile on my face the whole time!😊
I'm f--king tired of wizards and the absence of MSRP. I believe it's come to the point where, even if they reintroduce it, there would be no difference in secondary market prices because of how the secondary market works.
Other then the price this is a masterwork in Universes Beyond, a Dr. Who cross over and a commander set. I want to get two of each to basically just use as a pool of cards to mix and match with various Dr. Who themed commanders.
Timey winey going for 90 around me is incredibly dumb. Instead I bought all the planechase for 30. Cheaper than the cheapest one. What a dumb product
1:08
;-; Y-Yes, I know what a dial is on a TV. I also remember putting it to channel 4 when I played my NES on a Magnavox console TV.
Normally the professor talks me out of spending money on precons but now I’ve bought all 4, I wish they would do this with more commander sets.
Except now we have to worry about facing dr who cards when we play edh. F for f u wotc.
💯 but that is why I have a play group of like minded players.
I haven’t bought a single Commander precon since the msrp went away. The decks are like twice as expensive as the ones from 3/4 years ago.
I have no interest in Dr. Who and the style of the cards don't feel like Magic to me. Warhammer felt at least somewhat like MTG, but these cards are not for me. So it's a shame that it's an otherwise good product that I'll miss out on due to the theme.
Should have gotten a B or C for the price and the lame art..... please don't cater to them just because they are finally showing interest in you professor!
For me, it was a no brainer in buying these purely for the Doctor Who collab and the Planechase cards! :D
so i bought these, don't really play magic or have anyone to play with but a huge dr who fan. Does anyone have any recommendation on how to store these cards so i can play them / look at them and not destroy them over time. I feel like this feels like a dr who themed board game type set / collectors item.
Well, I was able to buy Timey-wimey deck (last one in stock) for about 55 dollars, so I am pretty happy.
Ya know its hard to want to support my local game store when they sell sealed products (often before release) at double MSRP.
I DO NOT THINK YOUR THE BEST PERSON TO ASK IF ITS WORTH IT. Your too much in love with dr who.
The value in these precons are nuts. I am interested to see what I like and don’t like about the decks and I am really excited to play them.
My local tcg is selling all the Dr who deck 70 a piece currently Amazon has it cheaper. Which sucks.
The only grievance I have is that with the card kingdom pricing there is also a steep 13 dollar shipping cost which amazons price already has included, as a result for myself in California I would actually end up paying more for the card kingdom pricing and it would arrive later than Amazon
I just want to say thank you for all of the years of content. I know you are big enough noe that you need to start treating your channel like a business, but you love and affection for this game always shows. It is a pleasure watching your videos!
Any precon that isn't 40 or less is hot garbage, if its any higher they need to have actual lands that see play and not tapped trash.
