*Discovery #68* ASMR is particularly good to work to. If you have a task/paper/job that needs doing but you can't focus, stick on a ER video or another ASMRtist to help get the job done! Upvote this if you want to help people work to the sounds of Uncle E.
FlattenedRabbit Isn't it though!? I figured this out a while back and now I always have one on in the background when working on tedious photoshop crap or any sort of frustrating computer task. Keeps me from throwing the thing out a window =P
FlattenedRabbit I agree, its better than music... with music I either get distracted by the music itself or from trying to pick one. It's also much, much easier on the ears.
Uncle E. these split mana symbols mean that you can pay either this or that kind of mana... like if it was blue/black you could pay 1 blue mana or 1 black mana for that symbol
Thank you sir, as a 'semi-pro' magic player just listening to you talk about some super-beauteous and cool cards in the way you do (descriptive for noobs and pros alike) is exactly, literally fucking exactly what the doctor ordered.
Nick Schuler Yeah, just ptqs in regards to top 8s. Open series high finishes too but we all know how those are. Right now I'm actually to the point where I don't lose money traveling to tournaments every weekend. :D Do you play on any tournament circuits?
I love the flavour text on goblin test pilot (6:57) And I don't know many of the mtg artists, but Anastasia Ovchinnikova is easily my favourite right now, the way her art captures movement so gracefully is simply delightful. Especially her piece on the promo Prophet of Kruphix, it's my pride and joy of my collection right now, but that's also thanks to my love of green and blue and the way Prophet captures the flavour of those two colours
I need to get into Magic: The Gathering; never know why I haven't before. Any-who, great video as always, particularly like the sounds in this video :D
Aaaaaa this gave me some ASMR!!! I am so happy! I've been watching way too much ASMR, so been basically immune, but this was so good! The perfect amount of crinkle when you take out the cards! 😍😍
Gotta love your T-Shirt, Paul, it's really nice to watch your videos and especially when you're wearing a T-Shirt with a logo of one of the best games ever created. Haven't watched the full video yet, but I like your whispering and tapping to the back of the card. Great job, pal!
ER, you singlehandedly got me into playing Magic via one of your earlier unboxing videos. Went to my local game store to check out what it was all about . . . and 1.5 years later I'm a moderately decent advanced beginner who plays Modern. Thanks for this--I've been waiting for another MTG vid from you. And it's great to hear someone actually pronounce "mana" correctly. :)
I have played mtg for over 10 years. So far my favorite er videos have been comics pickup list, mtg 2014 starter opening and tinfoil hat society enrollment. I like how you go into details in these videos and it gives me the tingles! Was very happy to see another mtg video but was just a little bit dissapointed since u didnt read the card abilities and give your own opinions etc. I hope u could go into details for next one :). Also still waiting for New comic video. I fall asleep every night to one of your videos so Thank you for your amazing work!
It'd be great if you could do a video where you sift through a pile of magic cards, like you did at the beginning of the last Magic video you did. The soft "smack" when you pull out a new card followed by the "sift" as you slid it onto the pile after triggered me greatly.
What a coincidence, just had your mtg unboxing videos running yesterday and wondered if you still are interested in it. I occasionally jump in from time to time and think it's a timeless classic and probably my favorite card game ever. Therefore I obviously love the combination of it and good old asmr whispering.
Ephemeral Rift I want to get into drinking beer, but I always hate the taste. Is there a beer that has a different or unique taste that can help transition into more common beers?
Ephemeral Rift ohh this is a good news!! I love your beer tasting videos ^-^ I guess, i also will make a Turkish beers tasting video!! You inspire me!!
Also, you're correct about fuse sorceries, you can choose to cast both if you can pay the mana cost. Typically they're pretty damn good if you can pay the mana cost.
Yes, Orange symbols mean it's mythic. I like the crinkling of the plastic pages. Took about half way through to get into it, but now have full on peaceful tingles. Please do more MTG ones.
I've always wondered what MTG was all about and this video really inspired me to give it a shot. I went and watched your tutorial also and yea, it looks like the coolest dorkiest thing ever, perfect for me haha. Now to convince anyone I know to play with me!
E.R., have you ever considered playing Magic The Gathering Online? It's not the most aesthetically pleasing thing in the universe but it's practical since you don't have to know someone nearby just to play the game. Just figured I'd say this in case you were interested!
If you read this, the split mana cost means you can use one or the other, and the symbol on the right has different colors for different rarities. Black means common, silver is uncommon, gold is rare, and red is mythic rare. I hope this helps your MTG playing. :)
oh man, garruk, apex predator. what a card. if i were to ever branch out from mono green, green/black would be my first choice and that fella right there would be the first card i'd buy.
I think a lot of us would love it if you did a video where you did a Magic the Gathering video exclusively with cards with flavor text! No stats, just the stories behind them. :)
Great video, never played or collected Magic the gathering. Was a pokemon n yu gi oh person myself back in the day. Very relaxing. And I want your fallout t shirt! 😝
This didn´t put me to sleep at all. But you managed to reflect myself and raise some question on my own behavior. I do music and my lyrics will definetly will show it. And even on the pure acoustice side it will have an influence. Thank you very, very much. Now I can make art and you are part of it. Isn´t that the greatest thing what all human beings should be able to share?
i used to play back when there was this 6th edition with urza's legacy,balls etc.. and for those who didnt play used to gather all green and white cards together and tell their fortunes. (like sea + magpie -> you got happy news coming!) stopped playing when people started printing cards and putting them in deck protectors, lost its charm when everyone used tourney decks
I really love the black cards because they can wreck so badly and are cheap to cast. For example, a single rancid rats card will stop an opponent from attacking even if you don't have anything good to play because you will be able to destroy their best card.. if you had a whole hand of those they'd have nothing. Just rats.. then you hit them with some super beasts.. I also want to build a deck of invincible creatures that can't be destroyed by anything except expulsion spells and just be unstoppable..
Since I live near Uncle E (I'm near Harrisburg, PA) and I play Magic: the Gathering, I'm going to add meeting him to my bucket list. And maybe playing some magic with him :D
Rift a fun way to play magic with even people that are new is what my friends and i call "fat deck". Rules:same as normal magic except any land can pay for any color ex: mountains can play green cards or white cards as if they cost red. The only differences are you all share one big fat deck of mixed and matched cards you all draw from the same deck but each have your own grave yard. The wife or even friends who never played mtg before can play and have fun. Ps i wouldnt put planeswalkers or mill cards in (mill are cards that say remove the top 'X' number of cards from the top of a library amd put them into the graveyard) Hope you try it, amd if you do have fun. Oh almost forgot, lands should equal about 30% of the cards in the deck.
Awesome video :) , btw, I think when a symbol has two colors in one orb, for example: bioshift, i think it means you can pay 1 mana of either color, not one of each :) sorry if i sounded rude
I dont know if youve learned this by now (seeing as this is an older video) but the half mana symbols mean you can play either color. Like with Death Cult Rouge, you would pay one of any color, one black or blue, then another black or blue. I really like the Magic videos and alot of your newer content so keep up the good work!!
wow I clicked on this and you are already awesome for playing Magic. I'd like to play Commander or Legacy against you. That'd be cool! I love your other videos, especially with Corvus too
I am really glad to be subscribed to your channel as you and I have some similar interests such as Tool and what I can tell is Fallout, (Im not much of a fan of MTG myself) And well ASMR. Thank you.
ScrubblyDubbly IT WAS MAGIC THE GATHERING YOU WERE WAITING FOR ALL ALLLONG AUSTIN!! AND YOU BOUGHT! YOU ALL BOUGHT IT! EVEN YOUR IMMEDIATE FAMILY BOUGHT IT!
+FavoriteKarma Vince: "Hey Austin, you want some cheddar cheese?" Austin: "Hell yeah!" *Takes a bite, spits it out* Austin: "What the!? This isnt cheddar what in the hell is this!?" Vince: "IT'S BRIE AUSTIN! IT'S BRIE AUSTIN! IT WAS BRIE, ALL ALONG, AUSTIN!"
When a card has two colors split, that means either of them can be used. So, on arrows of justice, it requires 1 plains or mountain and two of any other color.
before a few weeks a found the old cards of magic the gathering from my big brother, but i hadn't understand the game/rules. too hard for me and great video :)
*Discovery #68*

+TooManyWaifusRuinsYourLaifu Your username...it's amazing

Thank you sir, as a 'semi-pro' magic player just listening to you talk about some super-beauteous and cool cards in the way you do (descriptive for noobs and pros alike) is exactly, literally fucking exactly what the doctor ordered.
Keith Smerbeck Semi Pro you say, any notable finishes? Any top 8s?
When Uncle E handled that Garruk I cried.
Nick Schuler
Yeah, just ptqs in regards to top 8s. Open series high finishes too but we all know how those are. Right now I'm actually to the point where I don't lose money traveling to tournaments every weekend. :D Do you play on any tournament circuits?
Keith Smerbeck
Considering the fact that most pros hardly earn enough to call themselves pro, the term semi-pro is a bit silly.
Keith Smerbeck is that Mcjuggetnuggets?
Really been hoping that you would do more card stuff. Love this stuff thanks.
The Undying Will I'm trying ;)
Wow, amazing video! I love the sounds that the cards make and I really enjoyed the camera angle and your hand movements! Keep it up! Thanks! :)
Magic the Gathering, Fallout t-shirt and ASMR, what a perfect mix :)
I love the flavour text on goblin test pilot (6:57)
And I don't know many of the mtg artists, but Anastasia Ovchinnikova is easily my favourite right now, the way her art captures movement so gracefully is simply delightful.

Andrew JFIvory Awesome. Sounds like you have a great love of the game and cards, esp for the artists!
I need to get into Magic: The Gathering; never know why I haven't before. Any-who, great video as always, particularly like the sounds in this video :D
Could you do something similari? I mean showing a card collection
If your getting into it, I recommend a person named tolarian community collage, he's not asmr but he's a great guy!
@The ASMR Gamer
I love your vids dude! I would love to see you do something like this!
+〈=Cyno=〉 we don't use @ on RUclips/Google+ we use + and their username.
you are correct about the red being mythic.
I love ASMR and my boyfriend has me addicted to Magic. So I currently sit here playing MTG online and listening to this ASMR. It's heaven. Thank you!
Aaaaaa this gave me some ASMR!!! I am so happy! I've been watching way too much ASMR, so been basically immune, but this was so good! The perfect amount of crinkle when you take out the cards! 😍😍
I haven't played Magic in years, I should dig out my old deck and get back into it
Gotta love your T-Shirt, Paul, it's really nice to watch your videos and especially when you're wearing a T-Shirt with a logo of one of the best games ever created. Haven't watched the full video yet, but I like your whispering and tapping to the back of the card. Great job, pal!
He makes lots of fallout references in his videos
Actually really glad someone finally rolled with this idea. Love MtG and I love ASMR so this is just awesome!
ER, you singlehandedly got me into playing Magic via one of your earlier unboxing videos.

This video came just in time! I love magic the gathering and i just collect the cards instead of playing games
Yesssss! Been looking forward to this for a year wooooo!
mikeawesome3 thanks for patiently waiting.
I have played mtg for over 10 years. So far my favorite er videos have been comics pickup list, mtg 2014 starter opening and tinfoil hat society enrollment.

Also still waiting for New comic video. I fall asleep every night to one of your videos so Thank you for your amazing work!
Found this video years after it was posted but I hard agree. I love the artwork of Magic cards so much.
This reminds me of my Duel Masters card collection from when i was a child...
It'd be great if you could do a video where you sift through a pile of magic cards, like you did at the beginning of the last Magic video you did. The soft "smack" when you pull out a new card followed by the "sift" as you slid it onto the pile after triggered me greatly.
He called his wife the wifu holly shit you are my favorite person now
Nice to find a fellow ASMR enthusiast who is also a fellow Magic player. Nice vid, man!
I love the artwork on each of the cards!! =)
I can't wait for the rest of this series!
What a coincidence, just had your mtg unboxing videos running yesterday and wondered if you still are interested in it. I occasionally jump in from time to time and think it's a timeless classic and probably my favorite card game ever. Therefore I obviously love the combination of it and good old asmr whispering.

After his latest video this is 100% confirmed now !
I HAD NO IDEA YOU PLAY MAGIC you just got so much cooler
*Friend!! Please make a new beer video 0.0 Btw, thanks for this collection!!*

I didn't expect this but I was hoping you would do something like it
Finally a scientific explanation for what I could never explain...like literally I didn't know what it was or how to describe it
Xenomorph references? Magic the Gathering videos? Fallout shirts?! Damn it Rift, you're just the man.
E.R., have you ever considered playing Magic The Gathering Online? It's not the most aesthetically pleasing thing in the universe but it's practical since you don't have to know someone nearby just to play the game. Just figured I'd say this in case you were interested!

Nice Vault Boy shirt. Hyped for possible hype for Fallout 4 announcement at E3!
That T-shirt is amazing... More than amazing..
Nice opener with Garruk, Apex Predator. I need a copy of him for my Sidisi EDH deck.
Gained major cool points for this video. Thumps way up.
This didn´t put me to sleep at all. But you managed to reflect myself and raise some question on my own behavior. I do music and my lyrics will definetly will show it. And even on the pure acoustice side it will have an influence.
Thank you very, very much.
Now I can make art and you are part of it. Isn´t that the greatest thing what all human beings should be able to share?
I love the fall out t shirt
amazing, can't wait for part 2!
Great video ER just what I need before big exams
kyle brenchley Same man haha desperate last minute revision ftw :P
I was doing the exact same last week lol
Same here... Be strong! ^^ Peace.

Welcome, people of the recommended section!

I'm looking for it from quite a long time
Extra style points for wearing that Fallout Vault Boy Shirt :D

Nice Fallout shirt! I like your style👌🏻
Yooo Man thanks for MTG stuff im very like this game and hope you Will make more asmr like this
Cool shirt dude
I have the same shirt. I love that shirt
For any wondering, chimera is pronounced Kai-mare-ah (kai like ki in kite, mare like nightmare and ah like a in apple)
Awesome video :) , btw, I think when a symbol has two colors in one orb, for example: bioshift, i think it means you can pay 1 mana of either color, not one of each :) sorry if i sounded rude
ChaoticSoul 1 Yeah I figured I was wrong. I didn't mean to come across like I was right. Thanks!
Ephemeral Rift Yeah, and again sorry if I sounded rude
OMG ive been waiting for this for almost a 1 and a half!! Thanks ER :D
Fallout T-Shirt Oo... I'm playing it right now. One of the best RPG's on console ever.
I liked very much! :-) Thank you for this good video!
This made my day, Thanks!!!

HOLY CRAP EPHEMERAL I DIDN'T KNOW YOU PLAYED MAGIC YOUR AWESOME LEVEL WENT FROM INFINITY TO INFINITY^2 edit: AND I JUST NOTICED YOUR FALLOUT SHIRT

Please can we have an eye/ cranial nerve exam? That would be awesome!
I am really glad to be subscribed to your channel as you and I have some similar interests such as Tool and what I can tell is Fallout, (Im not much of a fan of MTG myself) And well ASMR. Thank you.
I gotta either sell my cards or get back into magic. My top milk crates of cards are just laying next to my bed.
Well shit i'm early on this one rift ;)
2am treat, also it's cool that you're into magic
Lovin the shirt!

Love your videos Rift, want to get that in before the comments fill up!
Cool vid man! Do you play hearthstone btw? It's a card game on pc/ipad/android. I think you should try it!
When a card has two colors split, that means either of them can be used. So, on arrows of justice, it requires 1 plains or mountain and two of any other color.
Benjamin Hoyt Yeah, I know that now. Thanks.

No problem. Love the videos!
before a few weeks a found the old cards of magic the gathering from my big brother, but i hadn't understand the game/rules.
too hard for me
and great video :)
Pascal33Hitman33 Some of those cards may be very valuable. Card called "Black Lotus" for example is worth thousands of dollars.
Can we get one more card trader! I am addicted!
I be rocking that cavalcade red deck
Thank you so much for this video
The latest magic cards are like trying to solve an algebra problem consisting of multiple encyclopedia entries...
Whisper baaaack!!! :D
