    Many Magic: The Gathering players are asking questions about the Ultimate Guard Stack'n'Safe I used for putting my Guild Kit battle box together in this video. See my original review on the item here: Both. Here is my review: ruclips.net/video/uciXA2tQ-Gw/видео.html and know that it is in stock at my affiliate link via www.cardkingdom.com/TCC

And the first ever printing of a Voja token? And a bunch of awesome looking basic lands? And a nifty Selesnya pin to put on your backpack? All for $5 LESS then the price of the Privileged Position you wanted anyway?" .....bruh.

    I played the Dimir deck against the Golgari deck and I was certain the golgari deck was gonna win from unruly attacks and undergrowth. But Dimir came up strong late game and milled out my friend! It was awesome! First time I’ve milled out an opponent! The Dimir deck showed good synergy too. Great review prof and great videos. You’ve helped me be a better MTG player. Thank you!!!

      I still retain my stance they those things are ripoffs and that you could've received the same or greater sentimental/entertainment value out of other, more consumer friendly versions of MTG product; Such as the above Guild Kits or Rookie Decks. Maybe even the Commander sets if you could find one you like at msrp or less.

    Jarad already has an altered foil art and so does Niv Mizzet. I would have liked a Melek Altered art and a Savra (or sisters of stone death because I want to be that unique snowflake) but I agree with you on everything. These are awesome the flavor the reprints the foils the spindown and Im even rocking my Boros button... despite my wife's comments about it. My Aurelia deck got a good upgrade from it flavorwise and cardwise.
