Control the court is a chase foil because it was originally printed in portal 3 kingdoms, and this is its only foil printing. The scarcity of that card in foul is incredibly high, because of how large the foil sheet is in combination with how few will exist.
I am probably wrong on this thought but that Cryptic Spires was not only hilarious but seriously might be super rare and probably the only card in the set that defaces the card. The Magic symbol in the bottom left will make it different then the millions people threw away or stacked in bulk bins. I have watched so far like 10 of these boxes be opened and only seen that one. 10 Urza sagas but just 1 cryptic spires.
My MB2 had no foils and my highest card amount was 8 bucks....I got rolled on them but, my collectors had a jeweled textured lotus so that helped a bit.
I've watched quite a few Mystery 2 openings now. I think your pricing is quite generous in most cases. The boxes and collector's packs vary so much! Some boxes have many dupes and others none! One channel hit a foil Jeweled Lotus out of those loose packs! I'll just say that this Festival in a Box is cool!😀 But Volatile!
I was watching some reactions to the banning of jeweled lotus and mana crypt. And noticed your thumbnail. How convenient that the collector booster promos are lost caverns and commander masters. Since those are the 2 most recent sets that will suffer the most with these bannings. Scumbag move Wotc.
@@PhilosopherCards hopefully they get rid of that committee and reverse the decision. Or maybe Wotc is working on the replacements cards and want to raise the prices for those sets. Either way. Not great for the magic playing community.
That soundtrack in the background made me go crazy.
Had to see the video without audio at some point.

you're absolutely right - to be honest some of the listings floating out there right now at 200$ feels really low

Yea I was thinking the same thing seeing this. I wonder where he gets his prices. All the pricing I’ve seen is average 30-40% cheaper than he’s saying
I think it's because my pricing was done the moment it was released,
Yeah it's due to falling prices after the video was created
To be fair he also didn’t add the price for some decently costed uncommon and normal rares/mythics such as the reanimate
Let's go Philosopher hit those kick butt hits
I LOVE ❤️ LOVE MYSTERY BOOSTERS SO MUCH. I'VE GOT the first box still with the foils in the last slot
Does anyone know if young wolf comes in foil in this set?
got 3 foils out my mystery booster 2 box!!
My one friend pulled 2 but 3 is a record!
First video I've seen. From you! I've got one of these boxes and my friend did too, we are going to build sealed commander decks from our boxes
that background music is getting pretty damn repetitive in this video 😢

Dude I am so mad by this you have no idea. Both those cards deserve to be in and I very much hope they reverse their decision

what are these price estimates? $300 for a $40 control of the court I dont understand
Prices were done when the video was filmed - in this case - on launch day.
My one commander master pack got me a foiled borderless Jeweled Lotus 🥲 I was so happy
I'm sorry about the news today... I'm holding several myself
