Great meeting you as well. I enjoyed our games! Appreciate you checking out the channel as well. 🙌🏼

TSR is one of my favorites. Just an incredibly well done set that also holds up really well.

Oh, let’s be clear. The first 2/3rds of that box were rough. But it finished very strong. Packs will always have a gamble element to them but the hits feel awesome.

100%. Can’t always happen but it’s awesome when it does.

They’ll eventually dry up. I’m old enough to remember when they were $90 each. Because that was like last year… 😂

It’s one of my favorites!

Harvey? 😼

Literally going to be asking people “Can I offer you an Emrakul in these trying times?” Once I have a full binder page of her. (My retro foil is going into a deck)

Allllllll the sketti monstas! Welcome back to battles. Glad to see you picked up where you left off. 😂

At least I got a Retrohoof Behemoth in one of my personal boxes

As always, I appreciate the consistent support and participation. I’m elated to be able to open up something for you that you’re psyched about. Much love! 🙌🏼

This was a good one too. Tight battle and explosion of goodies.

Agree. It’s a lot of fun when they do.

Riiight?! That last round was all sorts of crazy.

I’m pretty impressed with how fun InnR was to open.

Saaaaaaaame. Lol I really enjoy opening WoE.

It is wild to think about… and we’re working towards 4k now!

@@WildcatMTG Just keep doing what you're doing man. Your videos are great.

I appreciate that very much. Thank YOU for watching. 🙌🏼

Congrats on the Avacyn retro frame! I really like that variation too. Waaaay better box consistency than DMR.

It really does! Pretty cool product.

I think they had to. I know a lot of people love the Innistrad plane but let’s be real, it’s not flush with value. So they loaded up the boxes with the big hits. I think the trade off is that the print run for the product will be pretty tight. The window for this product is pretty small. We’re already on the doorstep of the next set.

You’re on fire!

That is a sweet card. I really like that Emrakul treatment.

Yeah, those prize packs did some work too! This product has been MUCH better than I envisioned.

The poster cards are pretty darn cool.

We willed it into existence!

Dang! Can’t be unhappy with those results! Congrats!

@WildcatMTG Thanks man! I was pretty stoked

🙌🏼🙌🏼

You almost always open cards worth less than the value of any booster box you open. Typically, the card value is around 80% of the box price, but individual boxes vary. The reason for this is that a few rare boxes will contain cards whose value greatly outmatches the box price. Jackpot cards like serialized Edgar are usually the culprit behind this. What this means is that pack cracking is something you should do if you enjoy the gamble of opening random cards. The stakes are highest with collector boosters. If you want good value, it's a much better idea to just buy the individual cards you want from stores that sell trading cards. Cards also always plummet in value when a new set first comes out. They eventually stabilize and then slowly recover. Foundations has been out for a while now and so that recovery has had time to occur. I'm sorry to hear that you had a poor experience, but unfortunately, this is the nature of sealed booster products.

Reprints versus new cards will fluctuate prices and time has a way of supplying enough product that most products will come down in price. It could also be the current player/collector mentality is overly hyped on certain versions of cards. Commander cards are sought-after for the bling of the commander more so than nonlegendary creatures. Standard folks generally stick to base model cards because of a playset needed. Keep watching and learning and that regret you feel could be managed into something positive. Buying a box for the investment is not advisable, being able to buy a case of boxes is more like it, if your having multiple avenues of deployed streams, video unboxing, etc, but you really need to push your product out the door asap as a whole. A few often played cards will keep their value or raise in price. Welcome to the machine

Like the others mentioned, you're far more likely not to hit box price when opening sealed. The way I look at it, you need to go in knowing that, but it's a shot at the ultimate chase, in this case Edgar serialized. Will that shot payoff? Probably not. But I wanted to try. I also like the sentimental value I place on cards that I've pulled (or had pulled on video/stream) for those I add to the collection and don't sell. Plus opening packs is almost always a good time eh, even if it can come with a side of slight regret sometimes. Good luck

Pro tip on Magic: When building decks ALWAYS, BUY, SINGLES! Never buy boxes. Ever. The *only* reason to buy a box is to fulfill your inner gambler. And it's fun, don't get me wrong! But you *WILL* lose money

Lots of good comments in the replies. Regarding the question of “why do these showcases hold no value but foundations showcases do?” - The Foundations are roughly 1 per box. Innistrad is 2-3 non-foil and 1-2 foil. - Most of the Foundations also dropped a ton after initial release. It’s just the natural byproduct of product flooding the market. - Innistrad is 100% reprints. You’re injecting a supply (albeit in different treatments) of cards that already exist as opposed to cards that are still single printing. You’re generally going to get a large initial drop. While I don’t have a crystal ball… I think that the print run for Innistrad Remastered is probably pretty tight. We already have our next set coming in a couples of weeks. So we’re unlikely to see huge amounts of these cards flood the market. After supply dries up, many of the big hits should start to ascend in value again.

Can’t always happen but it’s nice when it does. These boxes have been awesome.

It’s pretty darn cool. The anime’s showed up big time in this box!

Riiiight?! Could have stopped any of them and been like “Hey, that’s cool!” But all four?! 🤯

Yooooo! That’s awesome. We like bonus Rares! 😂 Hopefully the box was good overall and you got some stuff you wanted!

Yeah, doesn’t get a lot better than that from an anime enchanting tales standpoint!!

Limited was really fun. I enjoyed being able to fore off a Cruel Ultimatum again. Grand Abolisher is definitely from a Chapelle skit. 😂

Bloomburrow crushed it. Lore, theme, impact constructed. Limited was a little “meh” but overall, no doubt that Bloomburrow lived up to the hype.

Appreciate that. Pretty close to being back to 100%. Hopefully by next round of videos you won’t have to hear sniffles and congestion. lol

Oh, nice call on the Helvault!

🙌🏼🙌🏼

Yeah, I was focused on the battle and didn’t see it initially. Very cool.

But is it really?! 😼 I don’t know why that card trips me up in the moment.

As always thanks for watching. Much love.

I am so sorry… lol I looked after and was like “omg he really did get a full set. 🤦🏻‍♂️”

Movie poster Gitrog is best Gitrog. 😼

Congrats! Quad Mythics is wiiiiiiild.

I really wasn’t sure what to expect but it’s been really fun to open.

Good catch. I didn’t notice it initially.

Would be wild to open an Edgar serialized at some point!

I was not displeased with the contents… 😂

All the posters are pretty rad looking. Avacyn is a heck of a card…

It’s a card I really want to like but as you said…. Not exactly efficient.

Oh, well that is an interesting observation… I wonder if she is somehow uber rare. I’ll be paying more attention to her pull rates.

Gisela/bruna only have a simple treatment, so not a lot of slot in the collector booster. I expect to be more common in the play booster. Same with the terrains.
