Why Modern Horizons is 3 So Much Better than Commander Masters
There is no such thing as a "right to cards" in a CCG where cards are sold in randomized packs and you are forced into a secondary market to acquire cards needed for a deck. WoTC has never in all their history intended for all players to own all cards. They have ALWAYS intended Magic to be a chase where players DON'T own all the cards and they spend huge amounts of time and money chasing those cards via purchase or trades. All of the people who come at Magic with a perspective of "We all have a right to cheap cards" are literally.. demonstrably... wrong. You have a right to all game pieces in a Monopoly set. You have a right to all cards in a box set of Dominion. You have a right to all 52 cards in a normal deck of cards. They are intended to be sold as a set. CCG's have never been this. Full stop. If you are not looking at CCG's via the lens of "You are not supposed to own it all... you are supposed to spend your time and money chasing them" then you are not looking at a CCG correctly. The ENTIRE REASON they are printed at different rarities and put into randomized packs is SPECIFICALLY SO the customers must chase them.
Good job with the Dual Lands purchase. Long term it's probably going to be the best purchase you ever made in MTG.
The play box is just an overpriced draft box
Ive gotten some inspiration from your finance website, and I made a video about some of the popular collections people make and the strength of magic going forward. Restrospective analysis of Assasins Creed coming up! th-cam.com/video/B-Fv7DuLkCQ/w-d-xo.html
Knew all along, knew it would be so good that I bought a booster box for the first time, only ever bought single packs before. And got over 2/3 of the cards from the standard list just from the box!
Making us happy is the best part
Furries
Sorry as long as people like Rudy scalp sealed boxes there's not a reason.
I was pretty sad to check Ebay sells recently and saw that the original collector booster from ToE is selling for only $200 right now. Just shows not all products are worth holding for long term.
Never played Magic till 3 weeks ago. Started with the Bloomburrow started deck and the 9 booster box. I'm hooked and loving the game. Bloomburrow seems very inviting to me and probably many new players.
Solid points. Love your take. You always come across as someone who is passionate and enthusiastic about magic… for good or bad.
Thank you for watching! I try to be balanced and have criticized things that I truly did not like (see ANY of my commander masters video - gosh I was HEATED lmao), but I do love magic and often try to find a bright side. <3
Dude... the collectability you mention around 2:40 is NOT completely a good thing. Just because there are unique versions of new cards does not make them a good collectible. Why? Because WoTC is CRUSHING us with so many unique versions it ruins the special/rare aspect of them. It's one of those "when everything is special... nothing is special" kind of situations. Next, the RL will never be reprinted. I made videos years ago saying WoTC could reprint CE without breaking the Reserved List. It has been known for a long time by people who actually studied it that CE could be reprinted. The entire magic community has misunderstood the meaning of Magic 30th, it did not break the Reserved List. People are making a mistake when they think Magic 30th was a reprinting of the Reserved List. Although I own nearly everything on the RL (most of it many times over) I was actually excited about Magic 30th at first. More reprints of non-legal cards (which could be used as as close-as-you-can-get proxies) would bring way more people into those old formats. More people playing, with proxies or not is a good thing IMO... but WoTC completely screwed that up by charging so much for Magic 30th. The print insulted collectors/investors, and it did not put cheap cards into the hands of players. It pleased nearly nobody and pissed off nearly everybody. It was a HUGE missed opportunity to introduce the millions of new players to Vintage, Legacy and Old School formats. To be completely clear, the ONLY place I feel safe putting my hard earned money into MTG is buying original print 1993-1997 cards, with a special focus on RL cards. Nothing new is a good deal for the prices they charge these days.
Hey man - wanted to start by saying I am a big fan of yours and what you have done in the space! Fan-Girling a bit at the thought that you found my channel! As far as the comment at 2:40 goes, thought I made this video almost a year ago now, I still believe this. A big reason I think their unique versions work as "collectibles" is how MTG works in todays world: A massive fanbase and an extremely (often unhealthy) rapid release cycle. In my opinion, the release cycle has reached a point where MOST magic fans cannot possibly keep engaged through every single product - therefore when we truly get into something we do enjoy the special things about it. The connection built by saying "nah that isn't for me, no that isn't for me, WAIT! This release TOTALLY is for me" is important, and when we finally latch on to something is meaningful and because of that I think people enjoying modern mtg are more likely to want to collect the things from the products they latch on to. That does NOT mean the things these new fans are collecting are "above the law" so to speak, and most magic collecting rules apply. (if the card is good, its more coveted - if its iconic, people want it, if its trash, it likely matters much less how rare the card/treatment combo is - see my fav set SNC) Regarding MTG30 and the RL, We align greatly here - I think MTG30 was not a reprint of the reserved list, it was, however, a shock to the system and maybe even a 'testing of the waters' when it comes to community reaction. I am with you - if we could have had a draftable, and affordable classic mtg experience of whatever we consider the existing MTG30 cards to be (proxies? fakes? tokens? who knows, its a weird space) it would have been much better. This would have not only been really cool as a fan but could have jumpstarted some new collectors of reserved list cards as a whole new generation would have been able to build memories/connections to the old stuff in a new setting. As far as putting money, I know much less than you do about "investing" or "growing value" of magic singles and how to best get your moneys worth over a long period of time, but I would agree that the RL is always going to be a top tier move if you are looking to retain/grow value. as far as a "good value" I think I have resigned myself to this is the world we live in. Play boxes anywhere between 120-150 and premium sets looking to go for double that. I don't like it. I prefer more a lower price for a base product (have made entire videos about just that) but I also know that I have to analyze the real world that the game I love lives in, so I just talk about it as it is. Thank you for your thoughts man. I am blown away that you found me! <3
@@HometownTcg Thanks for the the warm welcome, and for following my content. Also thank you for adding to the content in this space, I definitely appreciate it and I thought your video was very well made :) Your point about people sitting on the sidelines then jumping back in for specific sets is a very good point. I'm in agreement with you about that. That kind of passion for a certain IP that resonates is a very real thing. I have many friends who did exactly that for some of these new sets and secret lairs. So I'm completely on board with you that it exists and people do that. I should have been more clear that I was referring to what makes something a good investment monetarily, and makes it a good collectible in terms of rarity. A person can be very passionate about collecting rare seashells, but that does not really mean they have a ton of value and are a good place to park your money. I was taking the topic to largely be "where is a good place to park your money." and I'm saying not the new cards. Either they will lose value with reprints... or instead of buying that cool rare from a new set for $10 you are dropping $25 per pack or $150 right out of the gate for that new card. What made the old cards and ways of WoTC printing magic special is that the packs were sold for $3 to $4 each, crap to great rares were $1 to $15, and the future had a ton of potential. WoTC has now pre-mined that secondary market equity... so players today START by paying pre-mined secondary market prices... and have to just hope they KEEP going up. That's really not the same thing. While I see your point and agree about new cards causing excitement and bringing people back in to buy them... the whole question changes when I'm being asked to pay $25 to $250 per booster pack. At some point... a hobby becomes SO EXPENSIVE that you are FORCED to look at the investment side of things. After a player has spent 10 years spending money on MTG and looks back at $20,000 spent over 10 years only to realize their collection is worth like $2876... suddenly you feel the cost of what you did. You paid for entertainment. That's fine... but just be very clear had you played a different format and bought different cards... that $20,000 might have been worth $35,890 and perhaps the fun during those 10 years was equal. Now... if I am asked to make a choice between a $600 serialized Wurmcoil Engine... or a $600 LP Revised Underground Sea... I'm 100% picking the Underground Sea. All day long. It's a far better card in terms of able to be used in many decks. It's protected by the RL. It's literal best-in-class for lands. It's basically required for most eternal formats, and it has a 30 year track record of being something that's recognized as valuable. (meaning it's not pop-trendy). I will have a ton of fun with that card, and have at least a very reasonable expectation it will track inflation if not perhaps have massive gains in the future. For your last point... resigning yourself to the world we live in... let me suggest a different way to play this lovely game. Try out a format that is heavily based on cards that you really think will grow or hold their value long term. There is a whole lot you can do with those formats (Traditional EDH, Pre-Modern, Alice, Old School, Vintage, Legacy, Cube Draft) If you insist on wanting to play with new cards... instead of mostly focusing on those new boxes at $120-$150... let other people pay those prices for sealed product then find yourself 4x Common & 4x Uncommon playsets for $35 to $50... then cherry pick only the rares you care about ignoring the chaff you'll never play with. I have done that for years and ended up owning 80% of a new set, but with only $150 invested. It was a great way to actually obtain the cards I wanted along with cheaply acquired commons/uncommons and not a ton of useless bulk. I'm interested to hear your reply, thanks again for the video and replying to me.
Magic is becoming a whales only club.
for sealed product it feels this way, but commander staples are more accessible than ever, and even standard decks are lasting longer and costing less.
I’m a precog I was spamming REDWALL SET HYPE back in March
Can Confirm: this is true. My hot take of OTJ being better than we thought on announcement is going well at least!
It’s popular because it finally spoke to the non-competitive player like me and beginners. “Value” means things to different players
Playbooster was successful this time around because people are wising up that collector boxes just really aren’t worth it. Problem is, the value isn’t in the playbooster box either. It’s just singles for me now and usually I would buy a case to stack and a case to open as usually a case will get you almost an entire set.
I just can’t believe rottenmouth viper, maha, dragonhawk, Ygra are all so cheap. The singles are just sooooo cheap. I kinda don’t like it. Makes the cards less fun to pull.
i can tell what they did for the future..... ppl didnt knew they messed arround with the pull rates in the "play" boosters box. So ppl thought last edition was awesome so this will be aswell... but no. I for myself will NOT buy a box anymore.. collector is too eypensive and playbooster is for its worth too eexpensive aswell. So i will buy singles in the future so wizard wont see a dime from me anymore. I like magic but HATE wizard now
Im ready to revisit bloomburrow and its still in rotation.
I did a severe NOPE on Commander Furies...I mean Bloomburrow. No interest whatsoever. Probably because I m bored to death of watching cute animals with my 3 year old. So nope nope nope and I m happy people are having fun with it but for me even Foreclosed Manor was more interesting.
I think the Karlov Manor hate is overblown. Was it a hit? No. Was it as bad as everyone says? Definitely not
My son and I played Pokemon competitively for years. We transitioned to Digimon and Magic. We played a little Magic here and there, but never really dedicated time to it. Bloomburrow got our attention though and we have been playing all the time. We are both on Arena and buying products with the intention to build decks. We are even going to sign up for our first ever draft night at our LGS. I can say that I have no interest in the next set. We will continue to use our Bloomburrow decks and I feel like I'm finally getting into the game a bit more. The horror theme isn't for us, so we will wait for a better set to invest in. I would love to see additional Bloomburrow products get released though and we're excited to see what decks become popular and what will be the best cards to use.
first and foremost congrats on living the dream. As a dad I dream of playing cards with my kid one day - I cannot wait and hope she loves it (I also don't want to be pushy and make her do something she doesn't enjoy) It is cool to see a real example of bloomburrow's longevity and I hope you and the family enjoy the set for as long as you want to!
MTG's cute Animal tribal Redwall/Mice and Mystics/Ravnica- esque set is remaining in demand... insert pikachu shock face here.

Its because of standard rotating. Getting a fresh way to build, is rather enticing.
I knew all along and went all in. Crossing my fingers and waiting with my sealed product..
Singles are cheap but boxes are expensive, and selling really well? MTG is a popular game that players will pay to play.
Any bundle or box I purchased is cheaper or the same price compared to the combined boosters inside - not including all the extras you receive. Bundle was $64 with 9 packs - 9 packs at US retail store $7 =$63 Literally $1 more for 2 packs of lands one all foil - storage - dice and one extra rare.
I did know it was gonna be good! I bought 12 Collectors boxes ahead of time!
THE MOVES! <3
It's a bad value proposition. Bring back Draft boosters. I don't care how they fudge the numbers to make it look like this is a great product at a reasonable price.
Everyone thought it was amazing
It was a pretty great set
It is insane how valuable the chase cards are but the rest are pretty average/low
Yeah the chase is real here! Some standard decks drastically dropping in price because of it too.
@@HometownTcg thats a good thing for standard then no? helps keep the game affordable and may attract more players to it maybe?
We all knew this set was going to sell well. Everyone in the comments (all different mtg channels) were super bullish on this set except the people who claimed to no longer buy packs/singles and joined team Proxy. I'm still waiting on picking anything up from this set because a lot of this is going to be opened which is going to make it's way to the online markets. Your theory on back to back sets having sales correlation seems worth exploring. I think this works better if the follow up set is something that would have mass appeal (dinosaurs in LCI, Phyrexian mechanical brutality, Big Ikoria monsters (w/ tri lands), MH3 powercreep for all.
I like your follow up theory!

Thank you for normalizing sealed collecting! There is a lot of stigma in the community around the topic. Ever since I was a kid when I first started in the hobby, I never liked opening packs. It's never been for me. I collect sealed boxes for both Mtg and Pokemon. It's what brings me joy and makes me happy to look them.
Thanks for watching! It feels like people are always hating on the box collection in the back of videos - I think there is much more to sealed box collecting than percentage up and down, I am glad you are enjoying it as well!
I’m happy collecting sealed of more modern sets. Wish I had done so since Urza’s when I started. Trick with ‘investing’ is the ability to sell at a price higher than you paid. Not always easy even if the box is worth more
I've heard people mention before how they wish they could get a box of Revised or Legends and how it would have been so cool if they had played back then. It was cool to play then and I was fortunate to but the thing is, people can still get that satisfying feeling by picking up a box of what is out when they start. Because someone is going to be telling them the same thing they were saying to me except they will say, man I wish I could have bought War of the Spark, it had a planeswalker in every pack and then they almost quit making them!
Love your channel sir! Keep on!
You need to shell out at least $800 😅 and that's every month because WOTC is relentlessly sending barrage of products.
I used to have a hard time selling my sealed boxes. I found that if I first collect a full set and slide everything into a binder, I have a much easier time parting with my precious booster boxes. Set collecting is underrated.
Yo homie you sound delusional. 😅 Some people just play Commander. So everything else you said doesn't add up specially with the draft box. 📉
Been enjoying the channel. I appreciate your traditional views on the game and I wish there were more like us!
If only sets released even a month longer then the usual, ive started buying older sets just to draft and see what i can get then run directly to whats new
Love seal products. Just to watch them.
Well said! I collect, because I like to collect (not just TCGs and sealed product). The enjoyment of acquisition and owning and being able to look at and handle are the reasons to collect. Some collections go to zero and some collections go up in value and some collections remain the same. Those are just side effects. Value is not the end all goal! In truth, I will at times offset the cost of my collecting hobby by selling off or trading some part of a collection, however, I'll likely die with most of my collections still in my possession. They will have fully served their purpose at that point.
Isn’t pokemon more popular than magic?
Not for play imo.
More people collect Pokemon like it is the stock market More people collect MTG to play the game.
Cool video
Thanks for watching
Well said. Am new into the game and I would like to start collecting draft box's for the future when one day I have a play group to play with, or have kids to share it with. I have a running "collection" on the TCG player app, but I more than likely will never sell anything unless it is a crazy duplicate that I have and don't need a bunch of. I have a lot to learn about MTG, but the collection resale side of it is pretty wild, where those whales just sit on a bunch of stuff with the thought of selling it down the road, and not play with their things (if they're sleeved and protected.. and if really rare double sleeve)
Yeah magic is super wide - meaning there are a ton of ways to interact with the hobby! I’d always encourage you to play the game as much as you can - it’s tons of fun!
WotC will get all your Money
Hahaha some of* for sure
Your words contain logic, however I possess not the willpower Happy Modern Monday!
Must… not…… open…….. boxes…………
I appreciate the data driven but also sentimental viewpoint on this channel. Maybe this deserves a whole video but: What's your opinion on the last of the "bronze era" booster boxes before Hasbro made big changes like Fire design, and collector boxes? I'm thinking of boxes like Dominaria, Allegiance, Guilds, War, M20. These have the beginnings of the commander hype but not the full tilt we've seen in recent years
I should do an entire video on that gen - thanks for following the channel! Long story short I think a LOT of people came into MtG in that era and while in the short to mid term the boxes have been underwhelming, I think long term there is some potential there
I pull 3 packs out of every collector box I open and place them into a “time capsule”. When I die all of these packs will be placed in a coffin with me.
Hahaha going out with your hobbies is a boss move!!!
That is cool. Though if you have a child who is interested in Magic, you should leave all the cards to them. I’m hoping my vhild develops an interest in Magic at some point in his life. Because as soon as he does, I am gonna inundate him with all my bulk (and then give him all the expensive stuff like Alpha etc when I get too old to care about the game lol)
bro you won't be able to enjoy them at all when you're dead, open those packs and enjoy the experience while you're still alive.
I'm the owl from the comment section bringing the HOOT!
