"Shahrazad is an interesting card because of the whole story there with how Richard Garfield feels about it", proceeds to not tell story >.
Beyond the diversity of mechanics and cards in general, Legends is probably the best example of truly iconic card naming and some of the best real hand created art that ever existed in the game. So many of these cards, given a different name and artwork would go right in the garbage can, but there is a magic in this set that just makes them greater than their game play value. It's a testament to value beyond 'value' in a gaming context.
Ever notice how several of the sets with reserved list cards often have treefolk as the final RL card from that set?
Arabian Nights: Singing Tree
Legends: Wood Elemental
The Dark: Wormwood Treefolk
Urza’s Saga: Weatherseed Treefolk
Then you’ve got winter themed cards as the final for all the ice age block sets:
Ice Age: Winter’s Chill
Homelands: Winter Sky
Alliances: Winters Night
it's legacy not saga btw(how did no one else catch this?)
it was all just beautiful, the previous owner was really taking care of his collection.
i love when rudy gives a shoutout to the artists.
Watched every minute. Loved every minute. I always enjoy these vids because it's like taking a trip back to my childhood where I fell in love with this crazy game.
Can you imagine selling a starter deck you bought from Rudy' s eBay back to him lolool
Happy to be one of the 3.696969% here. New to collecting mostly reserve list now - can't touch the sealed market. Thanks for the shoutout for the ladeeeeezzzzzz
Yup, I am one of the buyers of any/all Arabian Nights commons and uncommons I can get my hands on, along with Legends, Antiquities and yes even The Dark. Actually I buy all old commons and basic land from Urzas, Ice Age, Tempest, Mirage,etc. I can never get enough of the old stuff. Can't beat the beautiful art!
Honestly I could listen to Rudy talk about MTG cards all day! Love how much he appreciates the history! Brings back so many memories!!
90's Magic was the best!
I watched to the end, and every second was enjoyable. Watching you get soooo excited over these old cards will never get old, it really shows just now much you love this game.
Thanks Rudy.
I now cant get the image out of my head: Drunk Rudy on his balcony yelling at his parents why Legends is the best Set....
....throwing floppy Tacos
M K 😅
This video made me dig out all my legend cards. Why I forgot how many great cards were in the set. Just need to feel and touch them.
I am now inspired to collect a complete set of legends. This is a great set in regards to art and I have always been a fan of the art for All Hallow's Eve.
Legends is 2nd only to ice age art.
U will not believe it i started again with Pokemon and Yugioh and recently found a couple of ur videos and started watching im not even collecting magic but the last days when i go on ebay hunts or looking for cards i let play some clips from u in the background kinda just hearing ur voice, it gives me chills idk why but its chilling also i started watching them actually also thx man ^^
The inner sleeves by the way, are the Dragon Shield perfect fit sealable sleeves. If double sleeved, they’re water tight.
I love playing magic on the bottom of the swimming pool.
they really arent water tight. i tested them with a 5 cent card and it got damaged when double sleeved.
@@FanEAW yeah, water tight is defo an overstatement, but they are definitely more splash proof than traditional inner sleeves. How good the seal is on inner sleeves is just as impacted by the tightness of the outer sleeve. Pair the dragon shields with some tight ultimate guard katana's and you're going to have a much better seal than you would with the much looser dragonshield standard sleeves.
Those sleeves are pretty easy to use.
You insert the card about 75% of the way in, then pop the flap in, then sort of slide your thumb on the flap until it locks the card into place.
Tolarian College recently did a review video where he dunked the cards in water and they didn't get wet with those sleeves on.
10:18 and now, September 2021, the lowest pyramids has sold for was 100.00, with the sales commonly being between 170-200
I was 12 or 13 when my uncle gave me a ton of revised sets back in the early 2k's. Mercadian masques was the set that was out when I started getting them on my own. I remember going to the store and buying boosters for all the old sets. The ice age boosters were some of the more expensive ones then; and I remember the Urza's block boosters too. Man this brings me back.
Legends was a really special set. Nostalgia value at its finest.
trust me rudy, my wife has walked in on me watching weirder stuff than this lol
Based on that article only men/boys play this game have low incomes and are single
But those weirder videos were also from Alpha Investments...
im gonna guess that wierder stuff are the mana source videos?
Baby monitor
Rudy I did a quick search on eBay for a Legends booster box, and for a measly 17,999 dollars, you can buy a box of Legends to draft if you want :) I'm not kidding btw, it's the only English box available right now with a buy it now option!
RUDY! Djinn is pronounced 'gin'. The D is silent. Hence forth, I'm taking a shot of Timmy's Djinny Gin every time I hear "Da-Jin".
I am quite dismayed at the lack of English comprehension a lot of the Magic 'tubers exhibit. If they had stronger vocabularies, the names of the cards would start making sense. Example...Oubliette. The title tells you what the card is about, if you know what an Oubliette is. Granted, it is derived from French, but still maybe do a lookup one time. BTW Rudy...it is pronounced Ooo-blee-et (yes I know you butcher some names for comedic value). Some of these guys have been in to Magic since the beginning...and 27 years later they still can't pronounce the card names. Proper names and made up words...that's forgivable. English words, face palm.
@@NiceGuyPCTV Somewhat agree, but to play devil's advocate - many people who started playing MtG when it came out were kids when it launched. We mispronounced cards over and over, and those mispronounced names stuck in our heads over the years. Sometimes I catch myself saying a card name how I learned it, then I'm like, why am I saying it that way - that's not the name at all! hah
Stankafucile I’m saying this comment might get pinned.
@@NiceGuyPCTV I mean.. Not disagreeing but this was just for the lulz.
he pronounces some things wrong on purpose. like i do hard j for jalapeno and fajita to drive ppl nuts
Divine Intervention saved me from losing a lot of power 9 cards to ante games. I will always love that card.
I was bummed that I started at Revised and missed Legends. Back in the days Legend packs were super rare in Western Australia and were about $15/booster when Revised ($5) were out. Had I started in Legend I definitely would of try for a complete set
I think starter decks are undervalued because of price perception. People remember that a starter deck like challenger goes for $25-$30 something on the market but when a few of the cards creep up in price in it they remember the sticker price initially. Even with commander decks for Zendikar and Kaldheim, people didn't think it would have been as good to start out because of the price point, but the Elf deck shot up in price and was sought after on Amazon
As someone who switched to the dragonshield folding inner sleeves after the professor's video....slip the card in upside down until the opening of the sleeve is inline with the black/red symbols. Then fold the flap around, slip it under the flap, and use the tucking of the flap to push the card in the rest of the way.
They're weird, they make sleeved EDH decks too big for most deck boxes, but for the higher end cards they're worth the hassle.
Rudy, I don't play Magic but I find your videos super entertaining, especially the openings. Without fail I always watch a couple videos after I get off of work. Helps me unwind.
Keep flopping tacos man. Flop 'em as hard as you can.
Its true. It is nice to own old card. Not to play with sometimes, but to look at and collect and reminisce.
Great video Rudy. I feel much younger during watching. Not that floppy magic taco like, when I add this video to my all-time favs.
Urzas block! I am in love with Urza’s three chambers of Power tacos! Even though I am from the four horsemen block, I love Urza’s block!
For real Rudy. Back in the day Flying Men were amazing.
Just throw 1 or 2 Unstable Mutation on them, that's a real clock.
2 years later thank you Rudy for the history lesson
I love the Juzam Djinn and also the Jovial Evil card had amazingly cool "evil" art :D Great video Rudy!
Leave 1/8th of an inch of the card proud of the base of the sleeve to help guide the tab in. Goes 10x faster, more taco time.
What cards would you all like to see added to the reserve list? Removed?
Economically speaking the most unprecedented factor of the current crash is it is globally universal.
So unlike prior dips/crashes/recessions everyone is in the same situation and is uniformly pushing to recover.
Pepperidge Farms remembers when most regular humans started magic.. small little boxes of legends, arabians, and antiquities on the cardshop dealers stands at the local swap meet.. hey look at this 2 dollar legend dude.. oh man - look at this hasran ogress.. oh wow 100 bucks for a lotus card?? dude my mom gave me 100 bucks for babysitting my sister.. LOTUS aquired.. and then sold back because i wanted to hold, to smell, to own other beautiful pieces of artwork, of power of MAGIC!
Divine Intervention one of my old favorites. good stuff Rudy.
Those sleeves keep out moisture. Great for keeping foils flat.
What are they called?
I've always wondered if you had 1st ed LOB booster boxes stashed away in a corner of your basement
LOB?
Epsilon Karamazov Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon. 1st NA Box YuGiOh ever made. Worth 10K
he said in an older video that he has around 5 sealed cases
Loved Legends so much! I got lucky and owned a few through trades back in my 94 playing days. Then in 2007-08 I was buying sealed packs off eBay. Got really good cards a few times! I even liked the blue and gold booster packs themselves. Thanks Rudy for the video!
The Desert Cube runs multiple copies of both Desert and Desert Nomads, maybe this pushes it a little bit.
Watching and listening to Rudy’s vids whole organizing cards.
I love long videos like this I learned something new everything thanks Rudy
I paused the video to read the card. Unpause and Rudy says pause the video if you want to read it. Instant laugh
This isn't a Yu-Gi-Oh channel?
Nah, this is an older card game called Magical Gatherings.
I thought it was a Spellfire show.
Antiques Cardshow
Mono black weenie was a bomb back in the day. Then you had mono red and gruul aggro coming in from Fallen Empires/Ice Age.
23:35 Hag is such a cool card. The fact that it changes the creatures permanently is so unique 😱
Going to a couple of card shops (Before LGS were really a thing) with my saved up paper route money to buy a Legends card in the display case (The multicolored legends were always a big deal, even the vanilla ones)
Rudy giving me content during quarantine
Love this vintage stuff. I'm 35... I do the thing too. I love the cards. Dollar a month timmy patron salute
10:16 ah the subtitles said “Chrono crash” good job tricking the system Rudy
Thank you for sharing the history Rudy. i mean buying that videos :D
If Rudy makes yugioh opennings, it would be awesome!!! I like yugioh a lot!! :DDD
Rudy: now to get to the big leagues here, legends!
Arabian Nights and Antiquities from previous binder: are we a joke to you, Rudy!?!?
MTG question. How would reprinting cards on the reserves list change or hurt their value? It doesnt make the older cards easier to get. Would assume it would be like remaking collectors toys from the 80s, the new ones would still be new and the originals stay just as scarce.
most people buy the cheapest version of a card a reprint would crash their value as people would just buy those, iconic alpha/beta cards will still hold value
Almost all these expensive cards are expensive because they're very strong, and thus played in Legacy, Commander, and Vintage. If they were reprinted, they'd only be left with whatever value they have as collectors items. Look at trash cards from alpha, they're not really worth all that much compared to the good ones.
Is rudy trying to be China of Magic the gathering? If so keep it up, you re almost there 😀
I was hoping you went through all the cards cause damn them feels.
Rudy: buy reserve list
Reserve list stabilizes.. a little
Rudy, Savior of The List!
I kinda love the design behind Divine intervention. Looking at it today, you'd never know, but this thing was developed back when Ante was a thing, and you might WANT to end the game in a draw rather than a loss, to keep your anted card.
Oh my God, Rudy. Show me some pretty cards.
Rudy talks about Taco Bell so much that TH-cam keeps showing me Taco Bell ads whenever I'm watching this channel... Not complaining. Just an observation.
Cards are M/NM
Rudy: Nice light play cards (justifying the low buy price).
Never overestimate card conditions based on their age. However, yeah, some of these look almost pack fresh for sure.
I rarely ever comment, but I had a question in regards to the reserved list... For a regular "timmy" would you recommend buying one $500 card such chains or Candelabra or multiple cards at a lesser value? Things like "All Hallow's Eve which are cheaper and have suberb art..
Regrdless, thank you for the years of informative and entertaining videos!
I reckon 5 cards, as a minor form of diversifying like All Hallows Eve is good as a start.
I was a bit disappointed you did not mention killer bees. Back in the day it was one of the must haves in green, then came the chronicles reprint and forever wrecked the card value. I think it is worth less now then it was before chronicles.
One other thing, I'm pretty sure Spectral Cloak was uncommon and was one of those cards folks love to slap onto Ali from Cairo :)
What meaning is there to be gleaned from Rudy misspelling the word recession?
Glad to see books a million getting props for being one of the few national retailers that carried magic. BAM is still the shit.
Reason people buy old common cards are because they are playable in Pauper and you can make your deck standout buy having the old version. How many of the old commons there are playable is the another discussion. At least it is a factor to keep in mind.
That green Efreet card looks like Danny McBride from Your Highness.
So he mentioned a page with cheap cards not worth talking about, while handling Bazaar of Baghdad. I mean, that buylists for 700...not sure I agree there.
Thanks for sharing. Shame that the prev owner had to sell. You can tell by the best inner sleeves (dragonshield) and arguably the best portfolio binder (dragonshield) that not only did they have an appreciation of the cards but also taking care of them. I hope that the he really needed the monies and had no other option (i dont think it'll be easy to buy all this again in future).
I hope Jake doesnt look back on this (vid) in 5-10 years time and regrets it!
you gotta leave a bit of the card out when you put the flap in, then sort of roll it down while moving/pushing the card
i bought an original desert for 50 cent and an alpha drain life for 5 euras in my local LGS - I love finding some gems there
Skipped mention of Xira Arien in Legends. Still my favorite card art of all times.
there wasn't as big of a decline in prices because us people with magic addiction are going out and spending our Trump money on those pricey magic cards. If the economy doesn't kick back into gear soon-ish, i am fairly confident that the prices will start to go down at least a little bit.
Arena of the Ancients was actually reprinted in Chronicles 😉
nice collection, Legends is the best set
My wife walked in @2:40. Really embarrassing as she said I was doing it wrong.
One of my my fav ways to play...150 card deck w all crazy cards that goes 30+ turns and takes an hour per game. For Ante
Rudy I sell a lot of high end, and I've noticed the prices for coveted RL dropped about 20% at most in late march early april, but then rose about 10% the last couple weeks of April and have been steady since. Also, Taco Tuesday / Cinco de Mayo had no affect on the market...
"Stupid ant deck - it was ridiculous" XD
Edh. Turn 4. Everyone has excitedly gotten their commanders out. Drop Arena of the ancients and theyre tapped down. Unless they have a destroy artifact, it is a surprisingly good unexpected lock until they can deal with it.
Quite the ride of memory lane
Love living plane, got one English and Italian version . Had a weird deck back in the day to turn lands into creatures do 1 dmg to all opponent creatures and attack with all my lands.
Carion Ants, always was a fav back then
Day 34 of commenting every day until Rudy restocks T-shirts
How long till youtube demonetizes videos w/the phrase “the word I can’t say on TH-cam”?
The year is 2055, TH-camrs speak a bastardized version of English to dodge the Algorithms.

Fun fact a lot of the legends cards were characters from a D&D campaign
I played the crap out of the mijae djinn. RNG, but it killed lotus shivans in type 2 back in the day, because they had to.
invoke is > 200 € in Europe as is LED
Pastor Chris and pepridge farms remembers!
Cabal Ghoul... EL KABONG! Dude could hit like a truck back in the day
Whoa stronghold also has Crovax the cursed. Highly slept on card
Invoke Prejudice for about 20 Dollars in todays market? Where can I buy, Rudy?!
Invoke prejudice at 20$? the sun hitting hard in Florida taco-man :D
My taco just flopped to the floor
Of all the good and crappy cards I had, my elder dragon legends were my favorite just to have and look at.
Arena of the ancients is hilarious if you happen to have someone playing legend tribal in your playgroup!
Rudy, I still love that playmat! God rest Quinton H.
