Displates hangs up on a magnet? If only we had an explanation on how magnets work and are made.
I've had my eye on some Hitman Displates for a while. Now I'm finally ordering them!
Hey prof i got an idea, why don't you curate a Winston draft tower with all the "junk" from the booster box game video and show it in "Shuffle Up & Play", it will be fun and on trend with the new set, anyway great content Prof, hugs from México.
How long does that displate link last (or how long does it help you)? I've been looking to use someone's code to help them out but it's probably going to be another month before I actually order from displate.
Just FYI, if you are looking for a particular brand/genre at the displate site, don't give up to early! Try a variety of related search terms and you are likely to find a print related to your interests. As an example, I was looking for a print of Gypsy Danger (from Pacific Rim); while neither "Pacific Rim" nor "Jaeger" got me where I wanted, I had success with "Kaiju".
Thank goodness NOT ONE PERSON noticed that I missed the Morphic Pool. Phew.
Ink Eyes too :3
Dang, was just about to comment such.
I came to the comments just to see if anyone had lol
Was literally about to comment that before deciding maybe I should see if anyone beat me to the punch hahah.
That's exactly why I came to the comments section
I strongly suggest that you watch until the end.
Ok
That was a new record Prof, unlikely to be beat anytime soon
Oof
Bro...
Implying I don't watch all you stuff to the end
It's less than 10 seconds in and already wondering what Prof did to pad the run time because no way do we hit 105 on 18 packs.
Getting even half the value of a box out of this is genuinely impressive tbh
Have to agree. But I have to inquire why prof didn't take the price of Morphic pool unless I phased out for a moment.
@@canadianham He said it in a comment.
You missed pricing the Morphic Pool at 05:02 ... wouldn't have changed the result tho. ^^' Seems like this set is really bad value wise... #buysingles
Also missed adding Ink Eyes to the last box total, not that it would have changed that box much either.
Oh hey its the binding of issac man
I think a Blade of Selves was missed in the tally on the second box too
To be fair, including what was missed wouldn't have gotten any of the boxes out of the hall of shame. Even allowing for the few elder dragons to appreciate since release barely helps.
Prof and team are usually really good with the totals on these videos (so I hope they aren't too disheartened by us pointing out the misses). I think with how low value these boxes are, the usual care wasn't necessary to show the average value one might expect.
Yeah, that was a solid pack. Came to comments to verify somebody had already caught the Morphic Pool miss 👍
Haven’t watched yet but NO WAY this getting past one box… you’d need like 15 good mythical with multiple pulls of the same cards
Same here, he's still talking about displayed for me, but noway second box but I wonder what he's going to open in the back half just another box unrelated to the game maybe.
@@charlied8284 you knew what he meant, don't be a dick
I haven't watched it either yet but its a 40 minute long video
@@charlied8284 auto correct bro
A garbage set is a garbage set. 😆
you actually managed to get the cycle of diamonds in a single booster, what a legend
The dream.
What's the timecode on that?
@@TolarianCommunityCollege looks like it's at about 11:42
Call it “diamonds to coal.”
That's not too unlikely in set boosters. There are always a couple cards that share a common theme in each pack.
Me: "I'd like a chance to open a box worth at least what I paid for it in singles."
WotC: "This product isn't for you."
*Our products
It’s literally not for you if that’s what you want though. It’s literally stupid of you to expect that. You’re paying for the draft experience. If you buy a box for any other reason, you may have severe mental retardation
I love how brutally honest you are while staying sarcastic and entertaining. Stay you Prof! 💜
It's amazing how little value there is in this set unless you pull the ancient dragons or good list pulls from set packs.
I kinda like that as I'm collecting all the etched foils and it's nice most of them are less then 50c
The same sentiment was shared by everyone during Kamigawa and Capenna too
@@DefconLives I would disagree in general with that statement for Kamigawa. That set had a lot of value spread pretty evenly across multiple cards. This set is 100% Ancient Dragons or bust and even then, getting Ancients isn't likely to help recoup the "value" back. Flavor of this set is good but the value is hot garbage.
by this set do you mean every set from the last fifteen years? this ain't new
@@captawesome42 Ah we have internet hyperbole, how new and refreshing and 100% wrong. Grats!
Well, I`m halfway through the Video and all I can say is: Buy the draftbox! I had so much fun with this draft experience... I gathered my friends and we had the most fun commander game we ever had. Thanks to the mirror, blade of selves and commanders+backgrounds. We had dragons, horrors, spellslingers and all that.
There was a pricing mixup with Wheel of Sun and Moon not getting priced properly and the Morphic Pool not showing a price at all. Wheel actually showed Morphic's price, so Wheels $7.69 price was skipped.
Came here for this.
Ink-Eyes price also didn't update, but I'm not really sure that's the biggest problem with these boxes :P
I also was looking for someone to have said it cause it threw me off
I noticed that as well. I had to rewind the vid to double check
I would like to see a committed fan, not me, record all the cards opened in these videos into a spreadsheet and come back on a yearly basis and post a comment saying how much more the box is worth now.
I think this set will creep up in value over time, so it's a great time to grab some of the reprints. Wayfarer's Bauble, Nature's Lore, Swiftfoot Boots, Kindred Discovery, Blade of Selves, and Battlebond lands had decently high prices (and should increase in value over time). But pick those up as singles.
I'd be curious as well.
Yeah this set has really low value bur it is such fun to draft ngl. If the packs were better priced (about 4-5bucks) i would play a draft every week
@Tolarian Community College, could be a fun series, revisiting the past boxes seeing what tanked or went to the moon. I would gladly crunch all the numbers and create tables in spreadsheets. (Currently using spreadsheets in a portion of my app development)
I like this set- the disappointment is hilarious! Heck i bout a set box and my fave cards in singles so it was fun, won a draft for once too! Love the initiative, undercity and dungeons in general. Didnt pull a single ancient dragon lol- who cares! Throwing hamsters is where its at!
I like how he got sponsored by Displate as soon as he found out how how magnets work.
I love watching these. It scratches the "opening packs" itch without me spending the money.
I love the insanity creeping into Profs soul
CLB Set Booster boxes really demonstrate that maybe not every set needs a set box. Likely fans of the drafting experience wouldn't have their opinions drowned out as much if it was like TSR, draft only.
Set boxes were never needed. Pure greed, especially since the pulls are, on average, even worse, because you can't draft set boosters.
"I can stop anytime I want" 🤣🤣🤣
Every MTG player heading to the register for more sealed product after an opening
Yup. Bought 5 booster packs of Double Masters 2022, prob 15/20$ in value.
But it's true, he CAN stop any time he wants...
Because he only had to open another box if he makes the cost back lol
"They're made of metal!!" LOL!
Thoroughly enjoy your videos, Prof. Thank you for your sacrifice.
That ingenious composition of Firbolg Flutist on the last booster of the last box when the price is as low as $7.53 while playing Meatball parade! I absolutely love, what you did there!
Is nobody going to mention how CLEAN that one-handed box flip and catch was in his intro?! That showmanship is very appreciated.
"I don't have a problem! You have a problem!"
Something has gone wrong... with the value addition of the last box. Ink-Eyes was shown with a value of $28. Yet the box value went DOWN a couple of dollars, so the less-than-ten-dollar value of the box was not correct.
bit late proff it's double masters time now
It's been one week!
You mean Unfinity right?
@@TolarianCommunityCollege you should know by now that sets are barely relevant at prerelease one week after launch is basically ancient history
@@skylerfether7184 No, I mean double masters. Sell your collection now, so you can buy more double masters.
$7 in value from 18 packs? Oh my god. LOL
yeah I heard this set was bad value oh boy is that true
Do you need a hug, Prof? That 3rd Box was 😭
You know what prof? I'm feelin' really good about a 4th box. I think you're gonna get value out of that one.
Lol
It's basic statistics, the first three were unlucky and therefore the 4th MUST be the lucky one! Unless of course that luck is being saved up for a mondo-jackpot 5th box...
I have never before hoped to not hear any money sounds in a booster box game but near the end of that last box I was just hoping it'd stay below $10 just because of how insane that was.
This is a must watch. The last box was amazing.
Thanks Prof! If this set isn't the perfect example for buying singles then I don't know what is. The one box I opened only had 17 packs in it instead of 18!
The drop to 18 packs really hurts the value, much less chance to get hits. These set boxes are not much different than original draft boxes now. Except you can't draft as well with them.
It'll end up hurting Wizards and the future of the game.
Its just a ripoff by WotC.
Can't wait to see you pull a mythic dragon in every pack to get to box two
it's even better!
I think you missed a morphic pool at the beginning
At 37:17, you went up to nine dollars with the foil wild magic surge, pulled the list Ink-eyes, then went back down to seven dollars.
That foil wild magic surge is the game changer! Value town babyyy!!! 🤣
came looking for this. and didn;t add the 20-something for the list card to the total. I guess the list slot isn;t really part of the set.. kinda
Commander Legends 2 Drafts are so fun. Thank you for the content Prof.
yes they are fun, but premium boxes? lol
@@DoctorOozy You can get boxes for $90 so its not too bad.
That wasn't just a big OOPH, that was an entire GREATER OOPH BEHEMOTH
"Oooooh 41 min video? How is Prof going to pad THIS one out?" Haha you are amazing sir XD
Professor continues to stay top tier. I love the honesty in a time where it's needed most
Can we talk about pack 17 from Box 1 that just had all the diamonds back to back LOL
diamond tribal
lmao in reverse color order too!!
@@maxrichard2244 LOL I didn’t even catch that
@@smurfton14 Was having deja vu when the next pack started to have some Diamonds as well haha 😄
Good luck! Did you skip the morphic pool on accident?
Came here to ask the same thing
I personally pulled 5 Mythics in a bundle, the most I've ever pulled from one. (I buy at least 1 bundle every set.)
You'd think that would mean I at least got my money's worth on the individual cards in the bundle. You'd be wrong. The Mythics valued in total at around $10. The bundle around $20 entirely.
Where did you get a 20$ bundle?
@@santosflores8679 I think he meant that the cards in the bundle were worth about $20.
Holy suit that third box was insane
Just an absolute kick to the nuts of an mtg set, because they wanted to put all the good stuff that should have been in this set in quad masters.
I have allways wandered what does the prof does with the bulk he gets from opening this boxes, hope he makes some dope ass cubes
He builds a literal house of cards
He could donate them to schools/orphanages/aid groups.
Worst set I've ever opened....by a mile.
I love predicting how many boxes it's gonna be by how long the videos are
If you sum up the 3 does it go over the 105$?
as the professor missed a morphic pool think all three barely makes it above 105
@@jarzz3601 :D
I love the “They’re made of metal!” Part when he dropped the picture😂
I dont play magic, but i will watch this video.
the most important takeaway is: BUY SINGLES!
I have followed all your content for a long while now. It's always great. I have always thought it would be interesting to take the lowest boxes you get from these videos and revisit them down the line to see if there is a significant change in them or if they just suck no matter the time lol
That last box was awful, but unless I'm mistaken I think you forgot to add the value of Ink-Eyes, which amazingly quadruples the box's value (ouch).
Great video. I bought a single collector's booster and was lucky to break even (full art foil Battle Angels). Suffice it to say I'll quit while I'm ahead, and only buy packs to draft for this set.
Yeah, the ink eyes got left out even though other "the list" cards were included. Not sure why, but it sure was funny
There’s 4 rares & 5 uncommons that spiked after the Professor filmed his last two videos over release weekend.
Black Market Connections, Archivist of Oghma, Deep Knome Terramancer, & Displacer Kitten are all $14-$18 rares now.
Skullclamp & Herald’s Horn are $6, Lightning Greaves are $5, & Propaganda/Three Visits are $3 uncommons.
All the common unco you named are part of commander precon only xD
Hey Prof! Love the content. Suggestion for next set though, change the rules so you need to break the cost of one box over three boxes. Maybe then WotC's products would stand a chance. Keep it up!
Would you be willing to do a video where you do the booster box game with mutliple TCG's like Pokemon and Yugio, and compare the value? I LOVE these video's, hoping to see you on gameknights again soon!
Looks like this product should be an amazing $30 draft experience per box. Wouldn't that be amazing?
I was really rooting for you to get some bang for your buck in those boxes. That said, I really enjoyed the juxtaposition of the jaunty trumpet number to the exponential misery of cracking pack after pack of that last pitiful box. Thanks for taking another one for the team, Professor.
I got value from my set box . . . because I sold the miscuts for $120 haha
I generally am not a packs guy, but I love D&D and MtG, so I would have loved to crack more of it, but I'm just gonna buy the singles I need from here on out.
Even Ink-Eyes couldn't save you there.
I can’t believe how many boxes the Professor went through. 😱
I realize I got super lucky with my 1st booster box by pulling copper and gold, along with extended Minsc.
Loved all the cool music with minimal interruptions with the ch-ching sound effect- thanks Wizards!
Am I crazy, or did Prof just skip the valuation of that Morphic Pool in his 5th pack? I get that the Ancient Gold Dragon was a big pull… but I think Morphic Pool might be worth as much if not more than the Drake haha.
Time Stamp for those asking: 5:04
I was watching the video on my tv and hopped the RUclips app to see if anyone mentioned this LOL
Even when he recorded this it was still above 10 bucks. But probably a simple oversight, easily mistaken with other less exciting lands lol
Definitely skipped it, that threw me off too
It’s about $10 right now. Not sure where it was when filming. But yeah he missed it
He also didn’t add the second Blade of Selves to the total in box #2 (pack #15).
I came to the comments to see if someone else noticed! :D
I gotta say, this is the most incredible one I've seen yet. Stunning results even by booster box game standards
Prof, haven't you heard? Double Masters 2 spoilers already started. No one cares about Baldur's Gate anymore!
Each box: This is the worst box I've ever opened.
Next box: Hold my beer.
So this is definitely the set, where you should buy Singles! I learned that after opening 2 Set Displays
NEW SECRET LAIR ALERT!!! I can’t wait for that video from you, Professor. There are some very interesting new Secret Lairs up at the moment.
Many magic the gathering players ask how do magnets work?
lightning obviously why would you even need to ask
I was hoping the Displate ad would incorporate the Kyle Hill gag... Missed opportunities
On the one hand, it's a bummer to see just how little value there is in boxes... on the other, it's nice to know just how cheap some fun cards to get for a new commander deck can be! I suppose I can always upgrade one of my current decks...or build like 3 new ones.
EDIT: My God, that music at the end of the last box was just sublime and fitting.
Uh. Wow. I thought the point of set boosters was to give better value, unconstrained by the structure of draft packs. Great job again, WotC!
You misunderstand who the value is for. It ain't for the customer/player ;)
It’s pretty wild. I saw this after buying a couple collectors boxes and I pulled multiples of every elder dragon except the blue one and the value weighed against the investment hurt. New MTG enjoyer mistake 🤷🏽♂️ this teaches me a lot though, I only wish I’d seen it sooner. Thank you T.C.C. your knowledge has helped me a lot in getting started.
remember kids stay in school, don't do drugs and always buy singles
Prof. The new music is dynamic and fun, great addition! (Especially at the 13:45 min. mark)
I hope that 3rd box scratched the itch, 'cause cracking these boxes is destroying your wallet. I guess we're buying singles this set.
The music for the last box is very fitting for the total amount lol
Personally the highest priced card I opened was a set list card, and I find that hilarious.
"thank you for sponsoring this tragedy of a video"
5:05 you skipped morphic pools price
I bet your local store was quite happy you got those boxes for 105. I see a lot of stores already trying to fire sale these at 90 or below.
I like this set. In a way I'm glad it's cheap(er, still only 18 packs...)
I got myself a draft booster box (store was out of set booster boxes) and managed to get 3 ancient dragons as well as an archivist so I'm personally happy with my purchases. Only thing I'm gonna buy from this set now is the precons
I (clueless like I was) bought a set booster box. Just for hitting 2 Ancient Dragons (white and red), Archivist, Kitty, 1 Morphic pool, The Temur Dragon, Hall of the Bandit Lord, the Devil Mythic with the extra combat ability, Blade of Selves and that's about it if you dont know the value of the stamped art cards which seem currently actually worth something. Also attended a draft before just to hit sea of clouds and a Nautiloid extended art.
I don’t play magic the gathering but i love this channel. Wish yugioh had contents creators such as yourself.
While this set is "low value" card to card, i had an absolute blast opening my box. Loads of fun ideas for decks and needed staples. Dont let the "fun" value go unmentioned.
This is Core Set 2019 all over again. I'm so sorry for your loss Prof. Take my F.
Homelands: "I hold the record for being the worst set ever!"
ComLeg Baldur's Gate: Hold my beer
definitely agree baldur’s gate is a great draft experience! Well worth finding a spot to play it
I hope the little *cha-ching* should effect is ready for an easy day
I know it just launched and had a spoiler season but I already forgot this set came out as I was spoonfed the 2X2 spoiler season...
Id be curious to watch prof open boxes and give his thoughts on the cards as far as playability
As soon as the trumpets started playing, I laughed...but it was all whilst crying from the triple negative on that box.
Prof got so excited about that Ancient Gold Dragon in foil from the first box that he stumbled pass the Morphic Pool in front of it 🤪
Wow, multiple boxes and that last one was a killer!
Hey Prof! Love the content!
Missed a Morphic Pool pack 5 box 1......
Had this on in the background, while looking at the booster box that I got that almost caused major relationship drama with my gf who I share finances with.
She had told me not to get the box but I wanted one to draft with her so I did the totally normal thing and I hid the box in the back of our car in a grocery bag. Now, i didn't spend my own money for this, in fact using store credit from a Wrenn and Six, Dockside Extortionist, and Teferi's Protection(stonks) that I had sold a few weeks ago. We talked it out
but I enjoyed reliving that story as I vibe with music from your video, rarely interrupted by the pesky money sound! Thanks wizards for making money sink products
Just signed up for your patreon Prof!! Super stoked!
38:32 The Professor enters The Background World from getting scammed by Wizards
I would say alternatively build a set cube specifically for this set with the cheapest prints. See all the designed mechanics while using that 8 buck set booster box for something useful
I saw that missed Pool and I was like "who cares $5 bucks keep going"
Yup. My experience with a set box was pretty much on par with this. I did get the 5 battlebond lands I wanted, but the most expensive card I got was a list card and not from the actual set.
Not that it would have mattered, but you went right past the Morphic Pool at 5:05
Someone else noticed :D
You missed Ink-Eyes servant of Oni too :) Gatting more value in each box from The List than from extension !
38:32 Man, just when you thought you hit a new record low, this set said "hold my beer!"
OOf
This was... WOW. Great job staging the video, it was less like a box opening and more like a parable.
Professor and Tolarian Community College crew, 3rd box opening music is super fun. Reminded me of my Great grandmother, 100% Italian. She loved Italian and Swiss instrumental music while she cooked.
3rd box 2nd song reminded me of Sonic CD's Sonic Boom. Same female voice lyric feel.
