I realize this video is self-indulgent, self-obsessive, long-winded, and probably going to bore most viewers. Screw it. It's Thanksgiving. No script. No time limit. Raw stuff, but these people are who carry me through, just like all of you. I am thankful.
Professor you have given many MTG players advise and information to make them excel in the game, including me. I will listen to anything you have to say, and I thank you. You say what you need to.
You're an amazing guy, Professor. It's rare to find RUclipsrs as honest and wise as you, and I'm so glad others seem to enjoy your content as much as I do! Critical reviews and discussions are so important, and I think this community college is one of the best things to happen to Magic. :)
This was not the least bit boring, sir! It's great how humble you are...I wouldn't want you to get a big head when I say that YOU are now the one inspiring US to create content. Yeah, crazy, huh?
Tolarian / Alpha investments crossover Booster Box Game! Thats what i would love to see. U both are awesome in ur own way - Keep up the good work. much
Being completely honest, you have also helped so many people in your community too. Not only are you hilarious, but your knowledge and insight into this game has helped to bring many people together through it. I have learned so much about MTG from you, and in turn have made many friends through the game. I am very thankful for your dedication to this channel & the MTG community, and I am very happy that we have helped you too!
No gonna lie, I got a little teary eyed. I thankful for such a wonderful person as you. Growing up, I wish I had a father figure like you. You're little boy is quite lucky to have a father such as yourself. And hope you and your family have a wonderful thanksgiving. And, thank you for really caring about us, the community. Love ya, professor.
That's unfair... You thank us as community but it's our very duty to thank YOU for your amazing, entertaining and honest content. Whatever, stay yourself, you're awesome! XD
I'm Italian so I don't really celebrate Thanksgiving, but thank you Prof for the love you put into this community. And in turn thank you to everyone else that puts so much passion into something so seemingly silly like a card game, making it so much more than a pile of pieces of cardboard. Thanks for everything, and keep on rockin' :)
My wife and I found your channel about 2 years ago and we've watched everything you've put out since. We don't play MTG much at all (maybe one or two games a month), but you as a teacher of the game make it more than worth our while to watch your videos and streams. We both wish you the absolute best and have confidence that your passion for the game and your skill as an educator will carry your channel to much greater heights.
I’m thankful that you are THE RUclips Channel that got me into Magic two years ago. You have been THE RUclips channel who’s content and work effort has kept me in loop of MtG and all its products. And behind that you gave me the courage that I knew what I was doing when I sat down to play my first draft two years ago. Thank you, Professor.
Hey Professor. I do this on Thanksgiving as well. Tell people why I'm thankful for them. Not enough people do. I started watching you long before I started playing magic. Just wanted to thank you for being your best self and really showing us what the best of this community is. Thanks for talking to us today. Your videos are amazing and I'm sure there are a few other nonplayers turned player here as well. Stay awesome and have a great thanksgiving. :)
Im thankful for when your videos helped me through a really tough year in my life where things just not going right, now everything is getting back on track but you sure helped. You were the first mtg youtuber I started watching when I got back into the game 2 years ago and I became enamoured by the sheer joy in your videos that really brightened some really dark days. From you I discovered Wedge and the other content creators and realized the power of a plataform such as youtube to let the everyman make content about what they love and let like minded people find it. Il forever be grateful. Lots of love from Mexico.
If my channel exist is in part thanks to you. I always love MtG and see a person like you, who share a passion is nice. Your channel is not just a channel of MtG, is like the name says, a community. Thanks for everything professor! Español: Si mil canal existe es gracias a usted. Siempre ame Mtg, y ver personas como tu, que comparten una pasion es bonito. Tu canal no solo es sobre MtG, como su nombre lo dice, es una comunidad. Gracias por todo profesor!
This is such a beautiful video, the raw emotion is just breathtaking. I shed a tear for you as a person and how passionate you are to achieve your goals. To grow as an individual you learn from others which is what you did, to find your identity in the community is a beautiful journey.
Hi Professor, i've been wanting to tell you something for a long time and i feel like today is the right time to do so. I wanted to thank you for caring so much about this community and its members, this video showed once again to me and many other players what we already knew: everything that you do you do it to make this awesome community stronger. Although we never met and i just recently started playing magic, I feel like I belong in this amazing group of people that you worked so hard to put together, and for that i'm grateful, thank you professor!
Hey Prof. I definitely need to include you on my list of things to be thankful for this year. I have had a rough few years and your videos have been a light shining in the darkness for me since I discovered your channel. Your video during which you discussed your own problems with depression really affected me. To see that someone with your talent, charisma and frankly, bravery could be dealing with similar issues and persevering and thriving despite them. That video gave me the courage to speak to my therapist and doctor about antidepressants for the first time, and since I began taking them I have taken strides forward in my life for the first time since I can remember. I hope that one day when I finally get it together, I can more appropriately thank you for your inspiration by becoming a patron and helping to ensure your videos continue and hopefully reach more people the way you did me. Thank you for being you.
You're important to us Prof... I'm in a bad moment of my life right now, and going back to Magic is really helpfull. Your videos are a big part of my week, and eventhough thanksgiving isn't a thing in my country, I'm thankful for finding you and many others Magic content creators...
I remember first hearing about Magic in middle school. Then towards the end of high school, I searched it up on RUclips and your video, How to Start Playing Magic: The Gathering, showed up. After watching it, I remember going out to my local gamestore and asking for a starter deck, and having some local Magic players teach me how to play. Since then, I've started a small group that meets up every Friday to play magic and we're still gaining more people that want to learn. I'm always watching the videos you put out, and I will forever be thankful for you and the time you spend on them Professor. Thank you.
Wow! This was great! I am impressed. Thank you for sharing you with us! I find these type of vids enjoyable because we get a slight peak of who you are. Thanks again!!
Professor. Your video isnt too long boring or any of that. Its heartfelt, sincere, and very touching. You do us a great service by giving us honest, critical reviews of products from multiple angles, and teach us quite a bit. I am thankful for and appreciate you running this channel :)
You aways say to us leave a comment, I you try this time. I discovered TCC just a few months ago. I simply love it. I watch every new video a watched most of old videos haha. TCC took me back to magic after a long time not playing it. And there is another thing that I would like to say. I'm Brazilian and beside of learning more about magic and magic products, I use TCC to learn english. I'm not good in english (probably this text is already full of english errors) but the way you speak is so clean and nice that I love to hear you to get better at english listening. I don't know if i'am the only one that do it, but I would like to let you know that you help me with this too. Love the content, love the videos, love TCC. Hugs from Brazil, professor! :)
See, UnsleevedMedia? This is how you do a 'talk-up' video, even though the focus was mostly on himself (The Professor) he still gave thanks to the important and great people that got him to make content on RUclips and knew where the focus of his unscripted spiel was going (if you want to call it a spiel). Its so bewildering how drastic the quality put into those 2 unscripted, but planned videos is. If you are wondering what those videos I'm referring to are, it is this one (obviously) and "Busted, The Professor--". It takes UnsleevedMedia 7 minutes of durdleing and pointless rambling to start getting to his "point". In the same amount of time (14 minutes) The Professor has provided more information in the first 15 seconds than what was said during that 14 minutes excuse that you can't admit was clickbait. I know, I shouldn't be venting about another MTG youtuber here, ANY youtuber for that matter. But I am thankful for The Professor and for the top quality content he slaves over, instead of a person that thinks I'm an idiot and puts out what is unanimously considered to be garbage to become "The biggest MTG RUclips channel" instead of trying to help the community grow.
I just want to say I’m thankful for you, as well as the rest of the MTG community. You also opened my eyes to Rudy. I watch you two on a daily basis and you both have gotten me more into magic than I’ve ever been. Thank you for your unbiased reviews and being such a genuine person. You’re not afraid to put the real you on the table. Thank you for your years of entertainment and here is to many more. Happy thanksgiving professor.
I only own 5 magic cards that I got at a yard sale for 25 cents. My freinds let me borrow a deck when we stay after school to duel. I’m pretty new at magic, I absolutely love this game but I’m too shy. I love your channel, and the smile you have every time you make a video😁
Daniel Romero I at times get anxiety going to a card shop if I don't know anyone, but that goes away when you see the people that are there are just like you. But also maybe consider playing MTGO that way you can play anytime and will ne less nervous.
Force_of_Skill I really want to do things like go to card shops but I have a sweating problem(hyperhydrosis) whenever I get nervous I sweat everywhere!!! And I mean everywhere... my face gets sweaty and it’s embarrassing... I really love talking and interacting with people but ever since my sweating problem started. I can’t talk like I used to. Fortunately I have freinds that I don’t get nervous around and I can enjoy the game with them😁
Daniel Romero I can understand that bud. But look at it this way it's kinda like starting a new school year and you don't know anybody, it will be nerve racking the first few times but then you meet people and things get easier. Also the MTG community comes in all different forms of people, and those same people at the card shop are there for the same reason as you the love of MTG.
Thank you for doing this with your life. My life is better because you did. Your dad should be proud as hell. Thanks for being a friend to so many, Prof.
Many Magic the Gathering players ask the question, "is it worth it to watch Tolarian Community College?" The answer is a resounding, "yes". Thank you, Prof.
The reason you channel has made it so far is because your so real in them. Without you I would not be into magic the gathering. You were the first magic the gathering RUclipsr I watched several years ago. Your old deck techs got me started in the obsession in cardboard and cardboard accessories. Thank you for being you. I’m thankful for you, for magic, for friends, for wedge, for the command zone, even Conspiracy Rudy. Thank you to all magic the gathering content creators. You rock!
I am thankful for your channel!You were not only the first youtube magic channel i ever subscribed too, but you are also the reason i still lay magic today.
I rarely comment a video on RUclips but the honesty and really touching story of the first half-ish of this video kinda got to me. And I can genuinely feel the honesty in this. I'd call my self fairly new to MTG even tho I started following you about a year before I even touched MTG. You have helped me, an altogether of other players make better decisions regarding plays and purchasing. If it weren't for your "how to learn your friends mtg", me and my girlfriend would probably never play together. Which we love to do now! Thank you Prof, and keep your chin up! Awesome work!
Love you Prof! I found you when I started playing about a year ago, and you've always made my day a bit brighter with your silly, quirky, thought-provoking videos! This community is so much brighter for you being in it, and we're all very thankful for you
I'm not gonna unsub from anybody but I'm tired of seeing this hate in the community. I used to enjoy unsleevedmedia and their opening and what not. I enjoy TCC for the great guides you have posted and just how you go about showing off what a product is and how good it is. I still love the 5color mana base and other vids. I would have never figured it out without lots of help building my decks. I play magic for fun and just want this drama to end. I hate going on RUclips and seeing a hatestorm over this stuff. Just want to put it out there I'm not mad at anyone in particular I just want things to be like the old fun days where negativity didn't flood my newsfeed. Hope you are doing ok proff
Man, You're doing great, being able to do what you are passionate about is what a lot of people can only dream of. Thank you for your great contents! Keep up that love for the Magic community!
Ugh why do I feel old I’m only 20 geeez. Love you prof! Don’t stop being you! Concerning hardships you will and have faced please know this community we all cherish will help. Thank you for your huge contribution it means more than your humble soul can imagine!
You are NOT a nobody. Don't EVER forget that Prof. Ever!! We love you and the content you create for us! Ever since I got back into MTG right between HOU and XLN, my kids and I have basically watched a bunch of your videos, as well as Wedge's channel The Mana Source and also The Command Zone & Game Knights. And we'll damn well keep watching as long as you all are there making content. Thank YOU Professor and all your friends for providing such insightful, informative, and entertaining content for us all to enjoy! One love, and HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
Hey Prof, what's going on on Twitter? Pls don't fight harrasment with harrasment. If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn to them the other also. Jeremy is like a Hedgehog. Don't try to hit him, it's only gonna hurt yourselfe too. Your doing a great job here on RUclips and i enjoy all of your videos. Keep up the good worke man, i wish you the best!
Hey Professor! you are certainly not a "joke". You are the reason my wife and i started making videos, not necessarily about magic, but about the things we love. You got inspired by all these great people, and your are THE inspiration for this community. Happy Thanksgiving across the pond
I love everything you do and I have and still in the situation of taking ideas from other people. I love all of what you do Prof. Thank you for all you do and I love your charismatic attitude. Again, thank you for all you do.
I want to say, on this day of giving thanks, that I am thankful for you and your channel, Professor. I've been playing Magic for about four years now and no one outside of my local playgroup has been more influential, insightful or impactful to my growth as a Magic the Gathering player then you. When I started playing, none of my friends were very experienced and didn't have much to teach me beyond the mechanics of the game itself. You have brought clarity, focus and direction to every aspect of my game. Your videos have been a beacon of truth and knowledge, guiding me to become a better, more critically thinking player. You have helped me avoid the blunders of new and old players alike, directed me in my financial decisions regarding the game, and have been profoundly helpful, honest, sincere and just downright awesome. Without your videos, I would not be the player I am today, I would not have the knowledge I do and I would not have the same appreciation for the game. You truly are and inspiration, a scholar and a gentlemen and I hope to continue enjoying your work for years to come. Also, you're pretty much the most famous I've met. I've never met a celebrity or other RUclips stars and getting to meet you, shake your hand and have a small discussion at GP Vegas last year was something I won't soon forget. You are the man, Prof. Keep up the good work and have a very happy Thanksgiving.
Happy thanksgiving, prof. I'm thankful for you content and how you out yourself out there for us. You're an awesome person and I appreciate what you do for your fans.
Professor, you are a treasure to this community. I always appreciate your authenticity and fearless honesty. Not just about this game you love so much, but about your experiences and feelings. I know I feel a great affection for you, and I imagine many of your followers feel the same. Thank you for being you.
Professor I'm glad to be a part of this amazing community that can make a video like this and not get hated on for it. This just further proves that the collossus that is MTG can bring together such people
I dig you SO much. I think you're exceptional. You amaze me and inspire me. I am thankful for you, and for the rest of the MTG community, who've become the friends I've always been searching for.
Well spoke, Prof. And thank you for all you've done with this channel! Your advice has helped me to up my game, and I doubt I'm the only one who can say that. 👍
I want to thank you Professor. When started playing Magic, your videos helped me learn the game. When I first started to venture out into the Commander format, Merieke Ri Berit was my very first Commander (she's in semiretirement right now as 2 of my playgroups won't let me play her along with Empress Galina and Nekusar). Your videos has shaped not only as a player but as a consumer as well. Your videos on MTG accessories and WotC products has saved me financially (I stopped buying packs now, only the cards I need). You are an inspiration sir. Thank you
I understand perfectly Prof. I've been struggling with my studies (Math, then Physics and Chemistry) until I realized I was failing because I didn't want to do this with my life. My passion has always been video games and how people resonate with them through gameplay, story, music, etc. So I left everything behind and now I'm trying my best to enter a Game Design school. I never thought learning could be this fun though.
I totally agree with you. Magic is one big and great community with so many friendly and enthusiac people. I am from germany and i have played with people from France, from Spain, from Canada and the US and i realized one thing: Magic brings the people together! There is nothing better than going to the store and play a few matches with people who love the game just as you do. I really enjoy watching your videos, you taught me a lot about Magic. This is what i am thankful for. So keep up the good work and thank you, Professor :)
This really resonated with me. Thank you Prof, for the endless content that has not only given me hours of entertainment, and yes on several occasions has saved my wallet. This Thanksgiving, im thankful for content creators like you, jimmy and josh at the Command Zone, and LRR. Again, thank you
I appreciate what you do, and how you do it. While you haven’t been a huge influence on me, your videos have filled many a boring hour, and made me think on more then one occasion. Thank you for what you do, and best of luck in the future!
Who you become is so defined by the people around you. That doesn't make you a phony ... we all do it. I appreciate all you do Prof. Thank you. you've really helped me make better purchases regarding MTG and accessories. Tony Scherer - No screen Name .... Genuine Respect.
thank you professor for all of your videos. They kept me in to magic even when all my friends stopped playing and now even after the pass of hurricane maria and the destruction of my neighborhood i still find enjoyment on all of your videos, when i can find signal, even when ive already seen them. Once again thank you and i hope you do well
Thank you for your commitment to putting out such great content. since finding your channel a few months ago after a serious nostalgia itch lead me your way, I have watched almost every day. I don't even play the game anymore but hearing you speak on different topics during the work day or when I get home is such a great gift. I'm I'm thankful for every video. So thanks!
I want to say thank you professor for what you do. I'm thankful for having people like you to help the community. I started to play back in 1994 and there wasn't much of people that helped other out. So for you to help and show the community what's good and bad in your opinion is good to me. Thanks again and have a great Thanksgiving.
I like the professor persona. He sounds and acts like he knows what he is talking about; and he talks about having fun (which a lot of other people RUclipsrs seem to forget).
Long time sub Prof, your vids have always had heart to them and I am thankful for you and them. I have a friend who doesn't even play magic but still quotes you saying " Dredge in our schools!??" Keep it up, you were a big reason me and so many others really got into this game and a whole new part of life!
Hell, I absolutely love this video. You give us a plethora of critical reviews, it's awesome to have videos like these where you remind us more than any other videos that you really are just like one of us, no matter how many of us idolize you and others. Happy Thanksgiving Prof!
I'm thankful that I found your channel, to think that card sleeves could lead to one of the best channel's and one of the most kind and thoughtful person Thank you prof and happy thanksgiving
I love your honestly prof i’ve suffered from depression for a number of years but i don’t think i’d be around today without the support of my parents and friends. It’s very nice to see someone doing well. Even when things get you down your very uplifting and honest in your videos and yiur videos helped me at the start of magic and they still help me so even though im britisth im very thankful for people like you who put in a lot of time and effort outside there careers to help and for that if you ever visit birmingham england im more than happy to buy you a drink. Please keep the great content coming. Much love Dan from UK :)
Thank you so much, Professor! You were the first magic content creator that I started following, and my door of entry into the wider community. I was reluctant in starting to watch content and become more involved with the game in general, but your videos slowly but surely pulled me in. Tbh at first it was the jingle - it felt really cozy! And it feels doubly so now. Thank you for actually contributing to make magic a bigger thing for players on all levels, even casuals like me. Going through a bit of a rough patch atm since the person I started and shared the mtg-wonder with is no longer with me, but your videos and those of the people you mentioned in this one make MtG feel like something I can still connect with instead of just a painful reminder of happier days. So thank YOU!
I have been playing magic for one year as of today. I found this channel shortly after, while learning about sleeves, boxes and playmats. I fell in love with the channel as I did the game. We love you Professor (Brian)
Keep doing what your doing my friend. I am thankful for all of your awesome videos. I literally just found your channel under a month a go, and through you I found one of the most fun card games ever. I may be a newcomer, but I look forward to all of your new videos. Keep em' comin'! :)
Professor you really do leave a mark on the community and the people in it we probably all do in someway so to everyone have a great thanksgiving wherever you might be.
I can't say who's better than who, between Wedge and Prof. They are my absolute favorites. They have helped me so much in Magic. Dev from SBMtG, too. Love that guy. Wedge is phenomenal. Prof is phenomenal. I hope you guys find more perseverance in your lives and careers. You are definitely very much loved and appreciated amongst this community. I look forward to my future as a player, not only because I fucking love this game, but because of how we're brought further together by you, Magic Tubers. I'm so thankful, guys.
Thank you, Prof. for teaching me so much about the fundamentals, and groundworks of MTG! You have helped shape my abilities as a deck builder and influenced me as a player/politicer on game knights. You have brought me a lot of knowledge and joy over the past year. Booster boxes are for drafting!
I am so proud of and inspired by you as a person. You set a wonderful example of how to respond to negativity, and know how powerful it is to put something positive in the world. Thanks for being you.
Hello Professor, I just wanted to take the time to say thank you. When I was a kid, my brothers and I would play Magic the Gathering. In fact, our cousins did, our friends did. We all played together. Most of us quit a long time ago and I never really looked back. I enjoy watching your videos even though I don't play anymore. But recently I had decided to buy some battle decks from Card Kingdom in hopes of playing some casual magic with my brothers this Christmas. All thanks to you. I can't wait. Thank you!
Between my friends, the command zone, and you, professor, you guys have brought me to love magic and to understand it more everyday. I'm thankful for you and them on my Thanksgiving. Thank you.
I built my first Commander deck with the help of YOUR videos Professor. I've gained confidence in myself through building it. I've fought depression through building the deck. While not super competitive I still treat it as if it were worth a million dollars. I still watch your videos to learn of new ways to improve my deck. Heck I want to try different formats.
Professor I am thankful for your creation of this channel. While being a newer viewer I am still grateful that it exists. That you do commander videos, Modern, reviews for sleeves, binders, deck boxes, and all the various stuff. You're awesome. I am thankful for this channel and I am thankful that you profess it.
Thank you for starting this channel and sticking with it. Thank you for introducing me to other MTG channels which have helped me better understand the game. Thank you and them for helping me take the first step into playing against other people rather than just the computer (all the Stainless games and Xmage) and going 3-1 in my first pre-release 2 months ago. Thank you for the reviews. While it's ultimately my decision to purchase something or not, your input on a product is always valuable. Thank you for helping me be part of MTG.
Professor, you are GREAT! I've learned a lot with the community and started loving Magic once again with your help! I'm from Brazil and there's a lot of people here who likes your content!
I wouldn't be back to playing without your channel. It's given me a connection to playing again. Having content to view on a regular basis, helping me feel comfortable enough to actually go to an LGS event, play and it's brought my wife and son into playing as well. I'm thankful for having content like this available to us. It's helped bring my family closer and we've met a lot of great people at our LGS. Instead of me buying some cards, making a few decks and selling everything off like I've done multiple times since 1993, I feel like this time is different. So thank you for that, for what you do and what you give us as viewers!
I know you may not read this, but I've been watching your videos ever sense the start and Professor I truly want to say thank you so much for what you do for this community! You have been such an insperation for me and many others who watch your videos. Especially for the gaming club at my school with reccommending nothing but the best magic deck boxs and sleeves. I always point them to your channel. You even inspired me to try out doing magic videos in the community sometime in the future. I wish you nothing, but the best professore! Keep doing what you are doing and happy thanksgiving!
Beautifully said brother. There are alot of people in the community that look up to you, and even in my small shopping center, the one guy that plays magic the gathering, LOVES your videos, and uses alot of them for reference and entertainment. You can be self-indulgent, but just know, you made it. You're a wonderful person, doing amazing things, and getting to live your dream, at least for now. I'm thankful, and I believe that thankfulness is shared through alot of people that watch your videos, for the content you push out, and have produced, as well as just getting to see you, when we open our browsers. We get to learn, laugh and love what you show and share with us, and you do so well, and enjoy yourself. Always know that you're loved, and we are honoured to share this youtube community forum with you! Many thanks, and much love, Professor.
Thank You Professor for being a content creator and being who you are. Your videos have helped me and I guarantee they have helped others. You are irreplaceable and we are happy to be part of your community the Tolarian Community. Happy Thanksgiving Professor
I'm thankful for having videos like yours to inform me about a game that I am now greatly indebted to. Thank you for all that you do for this community. P.S. I really like the t shirt you're wearing.
Awesome video. Love to hear someone who has so many admirers be so humble and give thanks to the others who have been so helpful and a part of the great work and progress along the way.
I realize this video is self-indulgent, self-obsessive, long-winded, and probably going to bore most viewers. Screw it. It's Thanksgiving. No script. No time limit. Raw stuff, but these people are who carry me through, just like all of you. I am thankful.
I really enjoy these kind of videos, could listen to you talk about pretty much anything! Happy Thanksgiving and thank you for all the thing you do!
All the content is appreciated prof.
Professor you have given many MTG players advise and information to make them excel in the game, including me. I will listen to anything you have to say, and I thank you. You say what you need to.
It´s not self indulgent if the point is to inspire us Prof. And you succeeded.
Haha that’s why we watch man,I wish you did more like this happy thanks giving buddy I’m thankful for good content creators like you
You're an amazing guy, Professor. It's rare to find RUclipsrs as honest and wise as you, and I'm so glad others seem to enjoy your content as much as I do! Critical reviews and discussions are so important, and I think this community college is one of the best things to happen to Magic. :)
He's an absolute treasure to this community. I think of Prof everytime I think about how convenient my Magic accessories are.
This was not the least bit boring, sir! It's great how humble you are...I wouldn't want you to get a big head when I say that YOU are now the one inspiring US to create content. Yeah, crazy, huh?
+Alpha Investments Love you too, man. So honored to walk alongside you on this road.
Tolarian / Alpha investments crossover Booster Box Game! Thats what i would love to see. U both are awesome in ur own way - Keep up the good work. much
Tolarian Community College enjoy the honesty that both of you bring to discussing new products and Wizards’ strategies with what they’re doing!
I need free stuff
Gosh darn Creepy Rudy is creepy this morning
Being completely honest, you have also helped so many people in your community too. Not only are you hilarious, but your knowledge and insight into this game has helped to bring many people together through it. I have learned so much about MTG from you, and in turn have made many friends through the game. I am very thankful for your dedication to this channel & the MTG community, and I am very happy that we have helped you too!
No gonna lie, I got a little teary eyed. I thankful for such a wonderful person as you. Growing up, I wish I had a father figure like you. You're little boy is quite lucky to have a father such as yourself. And hope you and your family have a wonderful thanksgiving. And, thank you for really caring about us, the community. Love ya, professor.
That's unfair... You thank us as community but it's our very duty to thank YOU for your amazing, entertaining and honest content. Whatever, stay yourself, you're awesome! XD
I'm Italian so I don't really celebrate Thanksgiving, but thank you Prof for the love you put into this community. And in turn thank you to everyone else that puts so much passion into something so seemingly silly like a card game, making it so much more than a pile of pieces of cardboard.
Thanks for everything, and keep on rockin' :)
My wife and I found your channel about 2 years ago and we've watched everything you've put out since. We don't play MTG much at all (maybe one or two games a month), but you as a teacher of the game make it more than worth our while to watch your videos and streams.
We both wish you the absolute best and have confidence that your passion for the game and your skill as an educator will carry your channel to much greater heights.
I’m thankful that you are THE RUclips Channel that got me into Magic two years ago. You have been THE RUclips channel who’s content and work effort has kept me in loop of MtG and all its products. And behind that you gave me the courage that I knew what I was doing when I sat down to play my first draft two years ago. Thank you, Professor.
Hey Professor. I do this on Thanksgiving as well. Tell people why I'm thankful for them. Not enough people do. I started watching you long before I started playing magic. Just wanted to thank you for being your best self and really showing us what the best of this community is. Thanks for talking to us today. Your videos are amazing and I'm sure there are a few other nonplayers turned player here as well. Stay awesome and have a great thanksgiving. :)
Im thankful for when your videos helped me through a really tough year in my life where things just not going right, now everything is getting back on track but you sure helped. You were the first mtg youtuber I started watching when I got back into the game 2 years ago and I became enamoured by the sheer joy in your videos that really brightened some really dark days. From you I discovered Wedge and the other content creators and realized the power of a plataform such as youtube to let the everyman make content about what they love and let like minded people find it. Il forever be grateful.
Lots of love from Mexico.
If my channel exist is in part thanks to you. I always love MtG and see a person like you, who share a passion is nice. Your channel is not just a channel of MtG, is like the name says, a community. Thanks for everything professor!
Español: Si mil canal existe es gracias a usted. Siempre ame Mtg, y ver personas como tu, que comparten una pasion es bonito. Tu canal no solo es sobre MtG, como su nombre lo dice, es una comunidad. Gracias por todo profesor!

La Biblioteca de Minamo I am bilingual and watch your channel before and quite enjoy it
This is such a beautiful video, the raw emotion is just breathtaking. I shed a tear for you as a person and how passionate you are to achieve your goals. To grow as an individual you learn from others which is what you did, to find your identity in the community is a beautiful journey.
Hi Professor, i've been wanting to tell you something for a long time and i feel like today is the right time to do so.
I wanted to thank you for caring so much about this community and its members, this video showed once again to me and many other players what we already knew: everything that you do you do it to make this awesome community stronger. Although we never met and i just recently started playing magic, I feel like I belong in this amazing group of people that you worked so hard to put together, and for that i'm grateful, thank you professor!
Hey Prof. I definitely need to include you on my list of things to be thankful for this year. I have had a rough few years and your videos have been a light shining in the darkness for me since I discovered your channel. Your video during which you discussed your own problems with depression really affected me. To see that someone with your talent, charisma and frankly, bravery could be dealing with similar issues and persevering and thriving despite them. That video gave me the courage to speak to my therapist and doctor about antidepressants for the first time, and since I began taking them I have taken strides forward in my life for the first time since I can remember. I hope that one day when I finally get it together, I can more appropriately thank you for your inspiration by becoming a patron and helping to ensure your videos continue and hopefully reach more people the way you did me. Thank you for being you.
Your story matters Prof! One of the only channels I check daily, TCC is the best magic channel out there.
You're important to us Prof... I'm in a bad moment of my life right now, and going back to Magic is really helpfull. Your videos are a big part of my week, and eventhough thanksgiving isn't a thing in my country, I'm thankful for finding you and many others Magic content creators...
WE LOVE YOU
I remember first hearing about Magic in middle school. Then towards the end of high school, I searched it up on RUclips and your video, How to Start Playing Magic: The Gathering, showed up. After watching it, I remember going out to my local gamestore and asking for a starter deck, and having some local Magic players teach me how to play. Since then, I've started a small group that meets up every Friday to play magic and we're still gaining more people that want to learn. I'm always watching the videos you put out, and I will forever be thankful for you and the time you spend on them Professor. Thank you.
Wow! This was great! I am impressed. Thank you for sharing you with us! I find these type of vids enjoyable because we get a slight peak of who you are. Thanks again!!
I loved this. Thank you for your story professor!
I'm new to MTG, roughly 3 months now.
You are the best! Thankful for your work and time!
"Remember no man is a failure who has friends. " Thank you Prof!
Professor. Your video isnt too long boring or any of that. Its heartfelt, sincere, and very touching. You do us a great service by giving us honest, critical reviews of products from multiple angles, and teach us quite a bit. I am thankful for and appreciate you running this channel :)
You aways say to us leave a comment, I you try this time.
I discovered TCC just a few months ago. I simply love it. I watch every new video a watched most of old videos haha. TCC took me back to magic after a long time not playing it.
And there is another thing that I would like to say. I'm Brazilian and beside of learning more about magic and magic products, I use TCC to learn english. I'm not good in english (probably this text is already full of english errors) but the way you speak is so clean and nice that I love to hear you to get better at english listening.
I don't know if i'am the only one that do it, but I would like to let you know that you help me with this too.
Love the content, love the videos, love TCC.
Hugs from Brazil, professor! :)
Marcelo Cristiano Great English, keep at it!
Thank you :D
Love you Prof. Thank you for being the ever-watchful steward for a community and game that I love so dearly. Please keep it up and never go away.
See, UnsleevedMedia? This is how you do a 'talk-up' video, even though the focus was mostly on himself (The Professor) he still gave thanks to the important and great people that got him to make content on RUclips and knew where the focus of his unscripted spiel was going (if you want to call it a spiel). Its so bewildering how drastic the quality put into those 2 unscripted, but planned videos is. If you are wondering what those videos I'm referring to are, it is this one (obviously) and "Busted, The Professor--". It takes UnsleevedMedia 7 minutes of durdleing and pointless rambling to start getting to his "point". In the same amount of time (14 minutes) The Professor has provided more information in the first 15 seconds than what was said during that 14 minutes excuse that you can't admit was clickbait.
I know, I shouldn't be venting about another MTG youtuber here, ANY youtuber for that matter. But I am thankful for The Professor and for the top quality content he slaves over, instead of a person that thinks I'm an idiot and puts out what is unanimously considered to be garbage to become "The biggest MTG RUclips channel" instead of trying to help the community grow.
I just want to say I’m thankful for you, as well as the rest of the MTG community. You also opened my eyes to Rudy. I watch you two on a daily basis and you both have gotten me more into magic than I’ve ever been. Thank you for your unbiased reviews and being such a genuine person. You’re not afraid to put the real you on the table. Thank you for your years of entertainment and here is to many more. Happy thanksgiving professor.
I only own 5 magic cards that I got at a yard sale for 25 cents. My freinds let me borrow a deck when we stay after school to duel. I’m pretty new at magic, I absolutely love this game but I’m too shy. I love your channel, and the smile you have every time you make a video😁
Daniel Romero I at times get anxiety going to a card shop if I don't know anyone, but that goes away when you see the people that are there are just like you. But also maybe consider playing MTGO that way you can play anytime and will ne less nervous.
Force_of_Skill I really want to do things like go to card shops but I have a sweating problem(hyperhydrosis) whenever I get nervous I sweat everywhere!!! And I mean everywhere... my face gets sweaty and it’s embarrassing... I really love talking and interacting with people but ever since my sweating problem started. I can’t talk like I used to. Fortunately I have freinds that I don’t get nervous around and I can enjoy the game with them😁
Daniel Romero I can understand that bud. But look at it this way it's kinda like starting a new school year and you don't know anybody, it will be nerve racking the first few times but then you meet people and things get easier. Also the MTG community comes in all different forms of people, and those same people at the card shop are there for the same reason as you the love of MTG.
Thank you for doing this with your life. My life is better because you did. Your dad should be proud as hell. Thanks for being a friend to so many, Prof.
Many Magic the Gathering players ask the question, "is it worth it to watch Tolarian Community College?" The answer is a resounding, "yes". Thank you, Prof.
The reason you channel has made it so far is because your so real in them. Without you I would not be into magic the gathering. You were the first magic the gathering RUclipsr I watched several years ago. Your old deck techs got me started in the obsession in cardboard and cardboard accessories. Thank you for being you. I’m thankful for you, for magic, for friends, for wedge, for the command zone, even Conspiracy Rudy. Thank you to all magic the gathering content creators. You rock!
Thanks a lot for sharing these thoughts, thanks for producing such amazing content
that shirt looks bonkers, where did yo get it?
Marco Rivera it's from Meghan and Maria channel, Magic the Amateuring! GLH5!
thanks for the info!
I am thankful for your channel!You were not only the first youtube magic channel i ever subscribed too, but you are also the reason i still lay magic today.
Professor, you're the Dumbledore of the real world!
This was my favorite video you have ever done, Prof. Really like how you continue you stay humble!
Today I watched Proffessor Staff gush his heart out.
It was very interesting.
I rarely comment a video on RUclips but the honesty and really touching story of the first half-ish of this video kinda got to me. And I can genuinely feel the honesty in this.
I'd call my self fairly new to MTG even tho I started following you about a year before I even touched MTG. You have helped me, an altogether of other players make better decisions regarding plays and purchasing.
If it weren't for your "how to learn your friends mtg", me and my girlfriend would probably never play together. Which we love to do now!
Thank you Prof, and keep your chin up! Awesome work!
you're the fucking best.
Love you Prof! I found you when I started playing about a year ago, and you've always made my day a bit brighter with your silly, quirky, thought-provoking videos! This community is so much brighter for you being in it, and we're all very thankful for you
I'm not gonna unsub from anybody but I'm tired of seeing this hate in the community. I used to enjoy unsleevedmedia and their opening and what not. I enjoy TCC for the great guides you have posted and just how you go about showing off what a product is and how good it is. I still love the 5color mana base and other vids. I would have never figured it out without lots of help building my decks. I play magic for fun and just want this drama to end. I hate going on RUclips and seeing a hatestorm over this stuff. Just want to put it out there I'm not mad at anyone in particular I just want things to be like the old fun days where negativity didn't flood my newsfeed. Hope you are doing ok proff
Man, You're doing great, being able to do what you are passionate about is what a lot of people can only dream of. Thank you for your great contents! Keep up that love for the Magic community!
What! Wedge gave you the name "The Professor"? Wow, I didn't realize that.
Ugh why do I feel old I’m only 20 geeez.
Love you prof!
Don’t stop being you! Concerning hardships you will and have faced please know this community we all cherish will help. Thank you for your huge contribution it means more than your humble soul can imagine!
I'm not crying you're crying.
You are NOT a nobody. Don't EVER forget that Prof. Ever!! We love you and the content you create for us! Ever since I got back into MTG right between HOU and XLN, my kids and I have basically watched a bunch of your videos, as well as Wedge's channel The Mana Source and also The Command Zone & Game Knights. And we'll damn well keep watching as long as you all are there making content. Thank YOU Professor and all your friends for providing such insightful, informative, and entertaining content for us all to enjoy! One love, and HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
Hey Prof, what's going on on Twitter?
Pls don't fight harrasment with harrasment. If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn to them the other also.
Jeremy is like a Hedgehog. Don't try to hit him, it's only gonna hurt yourselfe too.
Your doing a great job here on RUclips and i enjoy all of your videos. Keep up the good worke man, i wish you the best!
Hey Professor!
you are certainly not a "joke". You are the reason my wife and i started making videos, not necessarily about magic, but about the things we love. You got inspired by all these great people, and your are THE inspiration for this community.
Happy Thanksgiving across the pond
I’m the short comment you’re looking for :)
I love everything you do and I have and still in the situation of taking ideas from other people. I love all of what you do Prof. Thank you for all you do and I love your charismatic attitude. Again, thank you for all you do.
❤
I want to say, on this day of giving thanks, that I am thankful for you and your channel, Professor. I've been playing Magic for about four years now and no one outside of my local playgroup has been more influential, insightful or impactful to my growth as a Magic the Gathering player then you. When I started playing, none of my friends were very experienced and didn't have much to teach me beyond the mechanics of the game itself. You have brought clarity, focus and direction to every aspect of my game. Your videos have been a beacon of truth and knowledge, guiding me to become a better, more critically thinking player. You have helped me avoid the blunders of new and old players alike, directed me in my financial decisions regarding the game, and have been profoundly helpful, honest, sincere and just downright awesome. Without your videos, I would not be the player I am today, I would not have the knowledge I do and I would not have the same appreciation for the game. You truly are and inspiration, a scholar and a gentlemen and I hope to continue enjoying your work for years to come. Also, you're pretty much the most famous I've met. I've never met a celebrity or other RUclips stars and getting to meet you, shake your hand and have a small discussion at GP Vegas last year was something I won't soon forget. You are the man, Prof. Keep up the good work and have a very happy Thanksgiving.
+1000
Happy thanksgiving, prof. I'm thankful for you content and how you out yourself out there for us. You're an awesome person and I appreciate what you do for your fans.
where are the quality pokemon go videos?
Reza boi.
Same place Pokemon Go went. The Void.
Reza Pokemon gone
Pokemon GOne away
Professor, you are a treasure to this community. I always appreciate your authenticity and fearless honesty. Not just about this game you love so much, but about your experiences and feelings. I know I feel a great affection for you, and I imagine many of your followers feel the same. Thank you for being you.
I was a big fan until I went on Twitter. Unsubscribing. I don't sub to SJWs.
Professor I'm glad to be a part of this amazing community that can make a video like this and not get hated on for it. This just further proves that the collossus that is MTG can bring together such people
uh
uh

I dig you SO much. I think you're exceptional. You amaze me and inspire me. I am thankful for you, and for the rest of the MTG community, who've become the friends I've always been searching for.
You truly are a pillar of the community. Thank you for doing what you do.
Well spoke, Prof. And thank you for all you've done with this channel! Your advice has helped me to up my game, and I doubt I'm the only one who can say that. 👍
I want to thank you Professor. When started playing Magic, your videos helped me learn the game. When I first started to venture out into the Commander format, Merieke Ri Berit was my very first Commander (she's in semiretirement right now as 2 of my playgroups won't let me play her along with Empress Galina and Nekusar). Your videos has shaped not only as a player but as a consumer as well. Your videos on MTG accessories and WotC products has saved me financially (I stopped buying packs now, only the cards I need). You are an inspiration sir. Thank you
I absolutely love this RUclips channel and admire you for everything you do, prof. I'm glad I can look up to someone like you.
I understand perfectly Prof.
I've been struggling with my studies (Math, then Physics and Chemistry) until I realized I was failing because I didn't want to do this with my life.
My passion has always been video games and how people resonate with them through gameplay, story, music, etc.
So I left everything behind and now I'm trying my best to enter a Game Design school.
I never thought learning could be this fun though.
I totally agree with you. Magic is one big and great community with so many friendly and enthusiac people. I am from germany and i have played with people from France, from Spain, from Canada and the US and i realized one thing: Magic brings the people together! There is nothing better than going to the store and play a few matches with people who love the game just as you do. I really enjoy watching your videos, you taught me a lot about Magic. This is what i am thankful for. So keep up the good work and thank you, Professor :)
This really resonated with me. Thank you Prof, for the endless content that has not only given me hours of entertainment, and yes on several occasions has saved my wallet. This Thanksgiving, im thankful for content creators like you, jimmy and josh at the Command Zone, and LRR. Again, thank you
I appreciate what you do, and how you do it. While you haven’t been a huge influence on me, your videos have filled many a boring hour, and made me think on more then one occasion.
Thank you for what you do, and best of luck in the future!
Who you become is so defined by the people around you.
That doesn't make you a phony ... we all do it.
I appreciate all you do Prof. Thank you. you've really helped me make better purchases regarding MTG and accessories.
Tony Scherer - No screen Name .... Genuine Respect.
thank you professor for all of your videos. They kept me in to magic even when all my friends stopped playing and now even after the pass of hurricane maria and the destruction of my neighborhood i still find enjoyment on all of your videos, when i can find signal, even when ive already seen them. Once again thank you and i hope you do well
Thank you for your commitment to putting out such great content. since finding your channel a few months ago after a serious nostalgia itch lead me your way, I have watched almost every day. I don't even play the game anymore but hearing you speak on different topics during the work day or when I get home is such a great gift. I'm I'm thankful for every video. So thanks!
I want to say thank you professor for what you do. I'm thankful for having people like you to help the community. I started to play back in 1994 and there wasn't much of people that helped other out. So for you to help and show the community what's good and bad in your opinion is good to me. Thanks again and have a great Thanksgiving.
You're my favourite content creator because I really respect you. No matter how I feel about magic the gathering I'll always support you professor.
I like the professor persona. He sounds and acts like he knows what he is talking about; and he talks about having fun (which a lot of other people RUclipsrs seem to forget).
We love you and your work prof! You’re a pillar of this community and I wouldn’t have the knowledge or passion that I do without your channel.
Long time sub Prof, your vids have always had heart to them and I am thankful for you and them. I have a friend who doesn't even play magic but still quotes you saying " Dredge in our schools!??" Keep it up, you were a big reason me and so many others really got into this game and a whole new part of life!
Hell, I absolutely love this video. You give us a plethora of critical reviews, it's awesome to have videos like these where you remind us more than any other videos that you really are just like one of us, no matter how many of us idolize you and others. Happy Thanksgiving Prof!
I'm thankful that I found your channel, to think that card sleeves could lead to one of the best channel's and one of the most kind and thoughtful person
Thank you prof and happy thanksgiving
I love your honestly prof i’ve suffered from depression for a number of years but i don’t think i’d be around today without the support of my parents and friends. It’s very nice to see someone doing well. Even when things get you down your very uplifting and honest in your videos and yiur videos helped me at the start of magic and they still help me so even though im britisth im very thankful for people like you who put in a lot of time and effort outside there careers to help and for that if you ever visit birmingham england im more than happy to buy you a drink. Please keep the great content coming. Much love Dan from UK :)
Thank you so much, Professor! You were the first magic content creator that I started following, and my door of entry into the wider community. I was reluctant in starting to watch content and become more involved with the game in general, but your videos slowly but surely pulled me in. Tbh at first it was the jingle - it felt really cozy! And it feels doubly so now. Thank you for actually contributing to make magic a bigger thing for players on all levels, even casuals like me. Going through a bit of a rough patch atm since the person I started and shared the mtg-wonder with is no longer with me, but your videos and those of the people you mentioned in this one make MtG feel like something I can still connect with instead of just a painful reminder of happier days.
So thank YOU!
I have been playing magic for one year as of today. I found this channel shortly after, while learning about sleeves, boxes and playmats. I fell in love with the channel as I did the game. We love you Professor (Brian)
You are so humble its almost annoying. You deserve everything good in this world. You are one of a kind...
Keep doing what your doing my friend. I am thankful for all of your awesome videos. I literally just found your channel under a month a go, and through you I found one of the most fun card games ever. I may be a newcomer, but I look forward to all of your new videos. Keep em' comin'! :)
Professor you really do leave a mark on the community and the people in it we probably all do in someway so to everyone have a great thanksgiving wherever you might be.
I can't say who's better than who, between Wedge and Prof. They are my absolute favorites. They have helped me so much in Magic. Dev from SBMtG, too. Love that guy. Wedge is phenomenal. Prof is phenomenal. I hope you guys find more perseverance in your lives and careers. You are definitely very much loved and appreciated amongst this community. I look forward to my future as a player, not only because I fucking love this game, but because of how we're brought further together by you, Magic Tubers. I'm so thankful, guys.
Thank you, Prof. for teaching me so much about the fundamentals, and groundworks of MTG! You have helped shape my abilities as a deck builder and influenced me as a player/politicer on game knights. You have brought me a lot of knowledge and joy over the past year. Booster boxes are for drafting!
I am so proud of and inspired by you as a person. You set a wonderful example of how to respond to negativity, and know how powerful it is to put something positive in the world. Thanks for being you.
Hello Professor, I just wanted to take the time to say thank you. When I was a kid, my brothers and I would play Magic the Gathering. In fact, our cousins did, our friends did. We all played together. Most of us quit a long time ago and I never really looked back. I enjoy watching your videos even though I don't play anymore. But recently I had decided to buy some battle decks from Card Kingdom in hopes of playing some casual magic with my brothers this Christmas. All thanks to you. I can't wait. Thank you!
Between my friends, the command zone, and you, professor, you guys have brought me to love magic and to understand it more everyday. I'm thankful for you and them on my Thanksgiving. Thank you.
I built my first Commander deck with the help of YOUR videos Professor. I've gained confidence in myself through building it. I've fought depression through building the deck. While not super competitive I still treat it as if it were worth a million dollars. I still watch your videos to learn of new ways to improve my deck. Heck I want to try different formats.
Professor I am thankful for your creation of this channel. While being a newer viewer I am still grateful that it exists. That you do commander videos, Modern, reviews for sleeves, binders, deck boxes, and all the various stuff. You're awesome. I am thankful for this channel and I am thankful that you profess it.
Thank you for starting this channel and sticking with it. Thank you for introducing me to other MTG channels which have helped me better understand the game. Thank you and them for helping me take the first step into playing against other people rather than just the computer (all the Stainless games and Xmage) and going 3-1 in my first pre-release 2 months ago.
Thank you for the reviews. While it's ultimately my decision to purchase something or not, your input on a product is always valuable.
Thank you for helping me be part of MTG.
You once more show why you are an icon of the MTG community professor. Thank you for all your videos, I appreciate each and everyone of them.
Professor, you are GREAT! I've learned a lot with the community and started loving Magic once again with your help! I'm from Brazil and there's a lot of people here who likes your content!
I wouldn't be back to playing without your channel. It's given me a connection to playing again. Having content to view on a regular basis, helping me feel comfortable enough to actually go to an LGS event, play and it's brought my wife and son into playing as well. I'm thankful for having content like this available to us. It's helped bring my family closer and we've met a lot of great people at our LGS. Instead of me buying some cards, making a few decks and selling everything off like I've done multiple times since 1993, I feel like this time is different. So thank you for that, for what you do and what you give us as viewers!
I know you may not read this, but I've been watching your videos ever sense the start and Professor I truly want to say thank you so much for what you do for this community! You have been such an insperation for me and many others who watch your videos. Especially for the gaming club at my school with reccommending nothing but the best magic deck boxs and sleeves. I always point them to your channel. You even inspired me to try out doing magic videos in the community sometime in the future. I wish you nothing, but the best professore! Keep doing what you are doing and happy thanksgiving!
Beautifully said brother. There are alot of people in the community that look up to you, and even in my small shopping center, the one guy that plays magic the gathering, LOVES your videos, and uses alot of them for reference and entertainment. You can be self-indulgent, but just know, you made it. You're a wonderful person, doing amazing things, and getting to live your dream, at least for now. I'm thankful, and I believe that thankfulness is shared through alot of people that watch your videos, for the content you push out, and have produced, as well as just getting to see you, when we open our browsers. We get to learn, laugh and love what you show and share with us, and you do so well, and enjoy yourself.
Always know that you're loved, and we are honoured to share this youtube community forum with you!
Many thanks, and much love, Professor.
I am so proud of the Tolarian Community and proud to be a part of such positive and like minded friends
Thank you prof for building this for us
Thank You Professor for being a content creator and being who you are. Your videos have helped me and I guarantee they have helped others. You are irreplaceable and we are happy to be part of your community the Tolarian Community. Happy Thanksgiving Professor
I'm thankful for having videos like yours to inform me about a game that I am now greatly indebted to. Thank you for all that you do for this community. P.S. I really like the t shirt you're wearing.
Awesome video. Love to hear someone who has so many admirers be so humble and give thanks to the others who have been so helpful and a part of the great work and progress along the way.
