Hey Proffessor, are you gonna make a video about the estimated value of the new Modern Horizon 3 and Commander decks?

13:05 did you notice doom blade text box is spelled wrong, "targeet"
Is this available outside of the US too?
Can I just take two seconds to praise whoever made sure tiny dancing table Miku casts a shadow like the other objects on the table? That would be an easy editing oversight.
Our editors are extremely talented.
Do you miss the old fashion of MTG? Yes? So stop supporting Hasbro and support other card games. It's simple. Guys, it's simple. Don't support Hasbro. It is simple, isn't it?
A bit worth doing, is a bit worth doing *right*
@@AxsorXIPlease go soapbox somewhere else...
Yes, Hasbro is a terrible company that has changed a lot of things in MTG for the worse, and yes, there have been many poor decisions in Magic's history, but there are still wonderful people in the development, design, and the entire community that truly care about the game and the players. When Prof says that it's important to be critical, but not cynical, people like you should take note.
Now, Nestle and many other mega corporations like that can and should be avoided like the plague. Especially when they are harming the environment, communities, and people in need. But that's not discussion that's needed here. Or wanted.
@@JaySay They're spamming the comments.Ignore.
Prof sounds like Miku is holding him at gunpoint. Blink twice if you’re in danger! 😂
Leek point
I'm just waiting for the Scooby Doo-esque reveal where Miku takes off a mask and it's just WOTC. 😂
Real 3am Mikudayo~ scenario
eh i didn't see him blink the entire video, guess he is fine then
Not blinking is also a sign
It's funny that Prof really is bewildered at Miku while she herself is probably older than a lot of the people watching this.
Just learned she predates the First Planeswalker cards from Lloyrwyn, by about 3 months and that's absolutely hilarious
And is also older than the thing he compared her to, aka the Gorillaz
I was about to say, Miku isn't some hip new kid thing lol. I've been listening to vocaloid music on RUclips for almost as long as I've been playing magic the gathering. She's been popular for like 15 years now.
He Is just not a weeb
@@agoodname6997 isn't Gorillaz from '98?
damn the camera angles emphasize the prof's pain so well
The way the intro is filmed is a reference to a japanese dominoes pizza commercial, at least I think it is
Is It the pain? It's giving me pain...
@@lucianodelbufalo3374i interpreted it as a cry for help but that includes pain i guess
That intro is a parody of the dominos hatsune miku commercial
I wasn't expecting to see Prof do a Domino's Pizza Parody and for Miku to immediately hit the Griddy.
She didn’t hit the griddy, tf?
@@Tt-tt9my 1:39
I was ready. It made my day.
I demand Miku dancing on Profs desk sporadically at least till the end of the year.
Okay but who's sending prof a mini miku hologram
Holy crap the Dominos Miku app reference, I cried of laughter
Professor Scott from Dominos
the zoom in on the eyes 😂😂😂
I’m so glad people picked up on this. I love that commercial for the pizza box you can use as a stage for Miku
They really nailed a bunch of the camera angles
so many people are missing the reference lmao
The fact the professor talks as if Miku is "hip and new" despite being older that her in-universe age makes the bit even funnier
Only older people talk hip and new
I personally love that secret lairs no longer print to demand. The way they all sell out before I'm even aware that sales have opened has saved me so much money. The fact that I'm clearly no longer the target audience for this game because Hasbro only wants to sell products to wealthy speculators and scalpers has really helped me to break my addiction to cardboard crack.
Same. But I'm still pretty salty about the tarot stylized SL selling out.
That's a wonderful way of looking at things!
The art was awful anyways xD
No kidding.
The Secret Lairs aren't the only product.
The only good thing to come out of universes beyond is that prof has been forced to talk about things like miku that make him wildly uncomfortable. Keep up the great work prof, your cringe is my water of life.
TBH the 40K and the Fallout UB are what dragged me back into cardboard crack after 15 years clean.
@@leadpaintchips9461it was the Evil Dead secret lair for me
@@AwkwardKyle
Well hellooooo, Mr Fancy-pants!
Those eye-forehead-closeups tho, I‘m dying
i can't believe we're getting a Scott, President of Domino's Pizza reference from the prof
the perfect crossover
That last secret lair broke my heart. It’s some of the coolest art I’ve seen in Magic in some time and they decided it should be the meme release
Miku the Gathering
More like waifu the gathering.
Do you miss the old fashion of MTG? Yes? So stop supporting Hasbro and support other card games. It's simple. Guys, it's simple. Don't support Hasbro. It is simple, isn't it?
@@AxsorXINah, I like it now
@@AxsorXImore miku cards, give them
@@AZDfoxTbf, that's why it is dying in a ship-of-theseus kind of way.
I can't see the end of the horizon -HATSUNE MIKU!?
HAVE YOU COME TO PUT ME OUT OF MY MISERY!?!
ME NEXT ME NEXT ME NEXT
I never expected Miku and Prof to have a collab. Everyone, say in Miku's voice "print proxies!"
Doom blade not only has meme text but it also has a typo in “targeet”. Real shame that such good art went to that text.
And the epic fail of the flavour text
Omg he is standing up!!! It's important!!!!
I wish Krark would have been in Goblin Gram. They could have made the like button not have a thumb
The extreme close up insert shots are art
NEW SECRET LAIR SCALPER'D ALERT!!!
best comment
Maybe they should just call them Scalper Lairs instead
The professor and hatsune miku what a Day to be alive
I love that the original card isn’t shown for the textless cards because I just sit here thinking „I’m not going to look that shit up“ which is probably how your playgroups going to feel
Oh hey, I wonder what cards re in the Miku Secret Lair and if it’s worth it to- Oh and it’s already sold out.
Appreciate the Miku jumpscare for the New Secret Lair alert . WotC is doing their best to ensure I never buy a secret lair though, since I miss the drops and refuse to pay scalpers.
Yeah I bought it day one because I knew Hastune Miku would sell out instantly
This is, outside of the Bob Ross SL, the first SL I actually wanted. However, I'm glad it isn't available anymore cause I refuse to give money directly to WotC anymore. Gonna buy the singles I want from other places.
I love the tiny dancing Miku at 14:40 when it switches back to the camera. Nice touch.
“Oh, hi Hatsune Miku!” followed by her hitting the griddy is probably the most wild thing I expected to see on this channel
That you started this video in the same style as the Japanese Domino's Miku video deserves an Oscar. That original video is among my favorite things on the Internet
I wait for the Commander Shuffle up & Play, where there will be Miku's avatar sitting next to the professor with a generated voice, playing with the new Secret Lair cards.
I mean, Rebel already has a vtuber model so they could easily do it. Lol
Professor's words: *a factual description of Hatsune Miku, delivered directly and without editorializations*
Professor's eyes: "My soul is in so much pain, the light inside me is dying..."
"Reading the card explains the... nevermind"
Reading the card explains the … more
Answer: this is the only Secret Lair I will ever want to buy. Except it sold out in about two seconds. Thanks Wizards!
Same
I couldn’t believe the intro referencing the Domino’s app ad. Absolutely incredible work. 😂
His cadence reminds me of the classic Dominos ad.
MiKu ThE gAtHeRiNg
Urza’s beard, the Sans Mercy Secret Lair has such amazing art. If only it wasn’t ruined by WotC being so damn weird.
Seeing prof. and Hatsune Miku in the same vid is a surreal sight, i thought i was huffing gas.
Miku should be in more videos.
Student Teacher Miku-san.
About to go wash my hands.
Shoutout to the production team for the dominoes commercial angles
ok, what I certainly did not expect to see is a throwback to the infamous Dominos promo, you're a legend
I'm surprised Prof didn't mention the fact that the formatting on the "Goblingram" drop means that while they did technically include rules text, unlike the "Poker Face" drop, said rules text is CUT OFF by the Instagram-inspired formatting. So for most of those goblins, we only get to see half their rules text, because WotC decided it was more important to take up space on the card with a fake comments section where the goblins can get "trolled" by Thrun.
And I feel if they wanted to do this style of card. Planeswalkers would have been better fit. Description being static and then 2 or 3 abilities.
Or flavor text as desc + abilities
If the fake comments were the rules text, it could've worked better. Similar to how the Creepshow secret lair had the rules text in speech bubbles, so the cards were still playable and also still looked like pages from a comic.
Love hearing him talking about Hatsune Miku lmaoo
Wait till the other Universes Beyond stuff starts dropping. It's only going to get more unhinged
I've been looking forward to seeing Prof talk about Miku ever since the announcmenet, this is everything I've ever wanted and more. Thank you Prof, made my day!
"a ReAl ShAmE" -guy who bought sans mercy in foil. (You didn't even mention COMIC SANS.) honestly though my 40 year old a$$ loves this.
Wish you would have still done the finacial break down and final thoughts on the Miku set. While I understand it doesn't help current consumers with the set being sold out. I was still curious on your thoughts of the product.
That dancing Miku in the back ground was way too distracting I loved it lol
He’s standing because he stans Miku. Congratulations both of yall in the video will bring tears of joy in my eyes.
Kinda cracks me up that his point of comparison for Miku is Jem and the Holograms.
Same
As a fan of Hatsune Miku, this secret lair (and the 3 more they plan) was an auto-buy for me. I was able to get a few of them for myself and a friend, and look forward to what other secrets lairs they have planed later on.
Feel like I'm alone, but the goblingram is just that right level of tongue-in-cheek to do once for a secret lair. It's not something I'd like to see again soon, but as a one off Secret Lair, it's fine.
It's way better than their "Not April Fools, April Fools, let's bully our playerbase." Secret Lair!
Yeah, it feel similar to some of the older unsets, but not completely unhinged.
It would have been better as a bonus sheet for Unfinity
Wow. It's crazy how much prof loves Miku and what a glowing review he left.
I know, right?
Whichever part of the team got Miku to say "New Secret Lair Alert" you are my hero and also, I almost choked on my water.
I'm glad I got my hands on a nonfoil one, even if I did want a foil. That's the price you be for not being awake when it drops I guess. Or the price you pay when Wizards of the Coast decides FOMO is better for business than selling what I can only assume is *an absurdly larger amount of cards*. Official Scalper-supporting company, Wizards of the Coast, everybody!
Huh I just opened RUclips and saw this was just posted. Keep up the amazing work prof and team!
These secret lairs have entered the "it's so bad it's good" territory for me. Genuinely the troll secret lair is my favorite secret lair of all time. I also got goblingram cause its stupid as hell lol
I really hope you explain some of the thought process thar goes on during the writing of these videos. The close ups are hilarious and I look forward to your Behind the Campus video!
I feel like Prof was shown the Miku Dominos pizza collab ad before making this, the acting is on point.
So I have thoughts on the comic sans secret lair. I really want Mogis and Torment for commander decks, and doom blade is a personal favorite card of mine. Plus I am sure I would find a home for the other 2 cards. The art is beautiful and if it wasn’t a joke secret lair I probably would have preordered it. This is actually a case where wizards making a joke lost them money. Because I would have been super happy to buy the cards even if the financial value wasn’t there. I mean look at that art!
Honestly my one issue with the Sans Mercy lair is the choice to make the text haphazardly capitalized - the Spongebob meme is specifically alternating caps, but the lair would've been perfect if it was either all capitalized or all lowercase
that being said i still got one, partially for the art, partially for the good value, partially because it's a themed lair where all the cards can be played in a commander deck of the legend included in the lair, and finally partially because I know there's gonna be plenty of people who're gonna unreasonably mad at seeing comic sans mogis across the table
I think the artwork of Goblingram is really fun and the *concept* of them being social media posts feels thematically appropriate to a goblin Secret Lair, but I do feel that the execution was lacking, especially when it comes to readability.
I don't know if I'd want to buy it, but it is neat to look at!
I love the poker style in foil and grabbed them to sit in my binder until I eventually trade or sell them. So pretty.
I noticed the foil value on sans mercy and it's kind of crazy this isn't sold out yet. They'll be even more valuable if they don't sell out.
And I got a Miku set to play for a month and then sell off, because those were pretty clearly going to sell out quickly and be quite popular.
So you can't play on camera in a tournament if you play your lands in front of your other cards but you can if you play completely unreadable art cards instead? Seems legit WotC.
"Do as I say, not as I do."
As a longtime Vocaloid and Magic fan, this was painful beyond words. Thank you for the video, Prof.
Brian and the camera work had me balled over laughing!
the close cuts are a reference to a miku Domino's commercial, too good
Goodness gracious Prof, this intro was freaking HILARIOUS. You outdid yourself with this one. Thanks as always for the reviews!
The professor's affirmation of knowing about the Gorillaz and J-pop fills me with confidence about how connected he is with the pulse of our modern society.
Honestly, I'm surprised he didn't go with Josie and the Pussycats, but... I suppose Jem and the Holograms isn't exactly a truly outrageous pull either.
I've always respected the hustle of the Vocaloid project and the idea of trying to humanize this very digital instrument into something more. The persona lets artists do their thing and not have to put themselves out there. That being said, a lot of the respect I have for vocaloids also applies to those in the Vtuber and PNGtuber space, although in the case of Vtubers, there's actually individual creatives that can be far more easily identified rather than just the boilerplate mask that Miku smooths over artists with.
I love that you were able to get someone to tune those voicelines just for a bit. The camera angles for the eye shots were the cherry on top. This is coming from a weeb that appreciates Miku as well, but held off on the secret lair (and probably the rest of the drop. Nothing really tickles my fancy this time).
If MtG ever officially collabs with any sort of vtubers I think the Prof's just going to turn into the art for Old Fogey.
I genuinely treat these video releases as mini holidays. I'm smiling before I even click on. Sorry for the suffering, but love you for it Prof!
Been waiting for him to talk about Hatsune Miku 😂
"I know what that means" 😂
I am young and relevant.
Love this video, great production quality, cheers to your teaching assistants!
Yeah, that's all fine, but it has to be said out loud that every time I see a preview for next episode of Shuffle up & Play I get so damn excited. I don't know if it's from the drinking water or the editors excellent work on those previews, but I'm hype and happy with 'em 😆🥳
Kinda want secret lairs to stop sometimes. Especially when they break apart from what a normal card layout looks like. They're seriously hard to read sometimes or tell what the card even is.
low key first
I knew this video was coming at some point, but it still doesnt stop the fact the thumbnail feels like its out of a fever dream
Imagine this. You are a young TCC prof. You open this channel. You don't have the slightest idea of what a Vocaloid is. You are happy, you play with your friends some TCG, you're a Frustrated theater kid (but that's a problem for another day and maybe a therapist) you keep bringing joy to a community, all is fine. Suddendly, out of nowhere, N years later, Hasbro says: **MIshra** it, we bring Miku with Comic Sans and unreadable cards...
With that, my friends, I'm going to cry in a corner cuz I wanted the Miku Secret Lair to gift the angel Miku to a friend...
I know prof is heavily implying he doesn't understand Miku but that genuinely is the only universes beyond anything that's actually interested me. And I'm heartbroken I don't even get a chance unless I go with scalpers
Many Magic the Gathering players ask the question, "Kawaii desu ne!?" :3
Thanks for the info, Proff! Great video, and kudos to the crew for the little animated person dancing on the shelf. Well done 🍷
I've been so excited to see your review for this secret lair because we all know you have NO idea who miku is but you're giving your best
I bought 5 Miku secret lairs not because I'm going to sell them, no, I'm going to keep them forever. I did it for religious reasons.
I should have gotten a second foil set in Japanese instead of outlaws v2
@@Tuchpi TBH I didn't even see the dual packs because of how fast I moved because I was in the cart cue in the first minute and there was no advertising on them. I would have just bought just 1 EN and 2 Duals to leave even just 2 EN and JP packs for the wolves if I knew but the site que was 40 minutes even with me hitting the cart in 30 seconds of the shop opening.... Really wish this this stuff was print to demand still because Miku merch sells like crazy if it has any amount of quality. Wizards is never prepared for anime fans and otaku like me
@@MikhailHudon_ZerithFarron for the later drops, you'll be able to see all the products they have available including bundles before they go online for sale. I should have just gotten the 4 pack bundle with all the different options so I can choose later.
The tone of this was everything I hoped for
1:16 I'm dying... I love the cuts to your eyes. It's so funny.
I was waiting for this video! I love how the prof looks and sounds so uncomfortable talking about Miku lol That may not be the case but it's still funny to see him talk have to talk about it and to also see Miku dance throughout this. That's our virtual idol for ya :)
Big fan of the camera angles to emphasise Prof's pain but also the presenter styled position for the remainder of the video.
you and your team are just getting more and more clever and creative as time goes on.
I generally find that I am only ever interested in secret lairs that are alternate versions of cards but still in the normal style of magic art like many of the artist series secret lairs. All I can say is I'm glad that the secret lairs as of late haven't looked particularly good from that standpoint so I don't have to race the scalpers lol.
Hello everyone, I'm Prof., President of Tolarian Community College! Have you heard of Hatsune Miku? Hatsune Miku exists
Bought 2 of the foil Sans sets and one foil outlaws v2. Pretty stoked to see the extra cards.
Usually haven't had any interest in Whatnot, but the chance to win CLB boxes is right up my alley.
Tuesday I decided to play casual (we all used precons) EDH at my lgs and had a blast. I was in a pod with a lady that was a huge fan of the prof, she also mentioned the Secret Lair that sold out almost immediately.... 3 hours? Wow.
11:00 Important thing to note that you might have missed. The Goblingram lair has the text cut off. Like it doesn’t even say the full rules text which is a very terrible design choice. But it really seemed between that and no mercy they went for the memes… in a very cringe way
I’ve been waiting for this longer than the Secret Lairs have been available
The way prof said "wifu" I know he was in pain
The extended showcase of lurrus of the dream den strikes the perfect balance of beauty and readability. Wizards should really look at more artsy borders that synergize with the art that is on the card.
The eye zoom ins got me dying lol why tf we so close to his face 🤣🤣
Griselbrand isnt really challenged in reanimator in legacy. It has other cards that ride in the toolbox with it now but it almost always the reanimator target with the most copies of itself in the deck.
OMG those eyebrow closeups, LOVE IT
I mean I didn’t have Hatsune Miku doing the griddy next to the proff on my bingo card at the start of this year but here we are.
lol the Professor's angst and salt against secret lairs is so thick that not even a steel cutter could get through it XD
