Bramblefort Fink is from the Oko Planeswalker precon.
I appreciate how the drawer in the intro looks pristine, then it becomes a mess once a pack is selected.
I never noticed that until now, lol
Yeah, that's a stark difference.
@@BenMarcWilliams come on now, you can't blame it *all* on Graham
@@nrofl I'm glad someone caught the pun.
69th like
"Oh, 2019. That's not so bad, that was just last year" 😅 💀
It's impressive you were given that pack 4 years ago when the set only came out 1 year ago in 2019
Fun fact about Shepherd of the Flock. It is a vanilla creature whenever it's not an adventure on the stack. I play it unashamedly in Jasmine Boreal EDH
Maybe Bramblefort Fink is from the Oko Planeswalker starter deck.
It would be, just given the “If you control an Oko planeswalker” text.
Thank you Graham and James and Matt and Jordyne!
Korvold was so good that it saw Standard play for a brief moment. The Brawl commanders all have the actual set symbol, so they were all standard legal for a time.
its the reason arcane signet is modern legal!
FYI: Terence Trent D'Arby goes by Sananda Maitreya these days :)
Fun fact: For a while, the nonfoil Korvold was the more expensive version
I just noticed that according to RUclips's game info under the video, MTG came out in 1997? Odd
Video game version came out in 1997. Wheeler has played it quite a lot on stream.
@@kristianfischer9814 makes sense that RUclips would pull that date then!
Nothing like a good Crack a Pack to make the day better
"the pack is $19.98"
Oh, that's alright, it's only last year.
i had forgotten this was called throne of eldraine. i know wilds of but i had it in my head that this was just eldraine. maybe if they didnt speed rush each set they would be easier to remember
Bramblefort Fink would be from the Planeswalker deck starring the not good version of Oko.
ooooh i LOVE Giant Killer! They should give him his own animation on Arena!
Idk what the terence Trent D'arby reference is, but I know 2 things that referenced him;
Homestar runner: in 3 times Halloween funjob, in the "standing around in the spooky woods commenting on each others' costumes" portion, coach z mistakes strong bad's o-zone costume for terence Trent D'arby as part of a joke where everyone thinks his costume is someone else, as they did in the first 2 toons where he was Carmen Miranda and Carmen Sandiego respectively where people mistake his costume and both times he says "I'm Carmen freakin miranda/Sandiego!" And in this one he starts to say the same thing before remembering he is, in fact, ozone from breakin' and not a Carmen
The other is from Jojos bizarre adventure where the game guy in part 3 is named D'arby after terence Trent D'arby
Delightful as always!
Damn, Circle of Loyalty is still 3$... I remember *loving* to jam the knights deck in 2019 standard
We did a mega sealed pool for this set with one Collector Booster, and I opened extended foil Castle Garenbrig :)
Merriman Lyon? Is that a Dark Is Rising reference?
Cuombajj Witches was a Summon Witches.
and now they are errata'd into human wizard
OG collector booster = best collector booster!
11:03 Graham sounded exactly like Geralt
Excited to see y'all reacting to Bloomburrow reveals soon.
FYI: The bramble fort fink is from de commander precons of throne of eldraine
Edit: False info, after digging into it, it actually came from a 60 card deck themed around Oko.
Really? I thought it was the Oko precon deck (standard, 60 cards)
@@TheGosgoshgiven it has the weird “If you control an X planeswalker” synergy, you’re probably right
Throne only had two types of precon decks, The brawl decks and the planeswalker decks. Why not EDH/Commander? Because this was from before they did commander decks for every set, and were trying to make brawl a thing.
@@TheGosgosh just did a little more research. You’re absolutely right. My bad.
According to Mark Rosewater, Wizards chose the type "Warlock" over "Witch" because "Witch refers to a real religious group".
Still wondering what happened to Garruk, all these years later
Ya those original collector boosters were sweet without being too crazy, only got a full art foil every 3 packs or so? They actually hold their value because you didnt get several per pack like now
Crack! A! Pack!
2019 was just last year, not half a decade ago. 😅
I hate foils, with the only exception is Emry, Lurker of the Loch, because the foiling was done exquisitely.
Korvold is perhaps the most emblematic of a card that solves its own problem. It set forth a precedent that has lasted to this day.
Did anyone else mistake the Garruk on that pack for Dr. Doom & got real curious what Graham was opening?
I didn't, but now that you said it, I will every time I see that art of garruk
Nah, but if you wait for the Marvel set next year, I'm sure Dr. Doom will be on packs
Circle of Loyalty is everything I want to do in an Eldraine draft or really just MTG in general. My first pick easy. Then force black/white Knights.
If I recall, this set added warlock as a creature type. So they did add something for the witches, but they chose a word that is less gender-coded (since witch is heavily associated with women).
Edit: I was reminded that they avoided “witches” to not insult the religious practitioners (I believe they are called Wiccans).
Weirdly, they didn't go back and change any previous Witches into Warlocks. Most Witches before were either Shamans or Wizards.
That's not the reason they chose warlock over witches. According to Maro, it's because "witches are a real religious group". Yeah, dumb.
@@alexandredesbiens-brassard9109 This is especially silly because SO ARE CLERICS. Priest is a real religious rank, not an abstract fantasy thing, and they use that all the time!
@@Argusthecat Yup, it's silly, especially since "witch" as a cultural concept predates neopaganism by centuries. My guest is that there is someone on the Magic team that identify as a witch (being either Wicca or another branch of neopaganism) and that lobbyied internally for Warlock over Witch.
@@Argusthecat Cleric isn't directly associated with a specific religion, but multiple. Modern Wiccans specifically use the term Witches for themselves. I get that it's a bit of a stretch, but the situations aren't interchangeable.
Okay I have a stupid question as a non-Magic player. Adventure cards: Do you get both the sorcery and the creature or just one or the other? Gatherer does not spell it out (hoho) and so I'm lost.
You can cast them as the sorcery side from your hand, and it goes into exile (on an adventure!) and then you can cast it as the creature side after that. It only works in that direction though; you can't cast the sorcery while the creature is in play or anything like that.
Where's the best place to get a barrowich?
One of the earliest iterations of predatory gambling getting out of control in Magic!
Special boosters existed before, and how is it any more "out of control" than what Magic was like before?
@@Mordalon Special boosters did not exist costed at 30 dollars/euro before, and they weren’t specifically being sold on the concept of cosmetics. How is anything else, even masters sets, even close?
@@ImrahilToChaos My point is that there were already examples of special booster packs that people would say were too much. You are the one claiming this is the "earliest", which I disagree with.
Also First?
