If you're looking into the photography bags, there's also various lines of inserts that you can fit into a bag. It's a good way to repurpose a regular backpack or messenger bag. They often come with lids or other ways to close, so that someone reaching into your bag can't pull out the contents.
You are spot-on about the Twin Flip 266+. I got one for a limited kit for draft/prerelease, since I like traveling really light. The extra space is nice for storing some trade fodder or the additional packs and singles I might buy at the same time, but the size is VERY noticeable - it’s practically a full-length box by any meaningful travel standards. A 160+ will probably serve drafters and most sealed players so much better as a dedicated kit. Design-wise, though, the Twin Flips are fantastic for this use case. Even with the size, I have no regrets having everything ready to toss into my satchel before heading to my LGS for limited play.
Great video and love the draft kits me and my buddy built ours the day you put that video out Also made battle boxes and Jumpstart boxes because of you so always great videos and content I love you and your videos the bloopers get me everytime it's deff reason watch to the end lol I can't get enough of your weekly news updates you deff my main source over other ppl cause break it down and spell out the good and the bad and I appreciate that so again thank you for all that you do :D
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! I know I've been a little quiet these past few weeks but I'm coming back with more very soon! (Family stuff and holidays ate up all my time and energy.)
ive considered a backpack thats a combination of a backpack and a deckbox-case but I found just an omnihive slid into a hiking backpack is just right for me.
For my most recent game night kit, i got a small camera backpack which has loops on one side for a playmat tube and the other corner has a small zipper section where you can pull out a boc the size of a land station box. Thats what i have used for my limited kit. But you can open the flap and my nice commander decks etc are inside Edit: should have watched until the end its smaller and cheaper than that but close!
looks really funny, but ive found that a bread loaf pan works great as a draft box for me. its only half the height of the cards, so its easy for me to pick them up. the width is perfect so the cards dont move around. i keep it in a cardboard box my wife was going to throw out that somehow encases the bread loaf pan and the cards perfectly 🤣
Do you have a recommendation for a battle box that fits the 4 warhammer precons double sleeved in bcw prisms, and a compartment that holds the tokens? The smarthive can only hold the 4 bcw prisms but not the tokens because the compartment is too small unless they're unsleeved.
@@beyondthedeckbox thanks. Yea, my thoughts exactly, id buy one for sure. I just think 8 for that purpose would be a little too big and bulky, unless they did like a more vertical design.
When you play sealed, you get six packs and you build a deck out of the cards. That means you need space for six packs worth of cards, lands, sleeves, etc. In draft, you only have three packs of cards so you only need space for three packs, lands, etc. The legion can fit three packs, lands, counters, and sleeves but it’s tight. Technically you could make it work for the six packs, but you might have to give up the dice and counters. Hope that helps! Thanks!
I definitely understand that. I think I'm going to be doing an update for the boulder 60 because a couple of mine started doing what you were saying. One has a crack in it now.
@@beyondthedeckbox did you file down the nub on the one side? After I did that they worked fine, but the first one I got broke. And ya, that'd be great to see a video on it! I hope they do some quality control!
As someone who occasionally creates videos, great edit at 3:11
I make sure to do the finest edits for such things. Elevates the whole thing in my opinion. 😂

That's a good idea! I will definitely look into those.
I legit laughed out loud at "Deck with Benefits."

I seriously love the 166. The 266 was great but the but the smaller one just hits that sweet spot.
Great video and love the draft kits me and my buddy built ours the day you put that video out

When on TH-cam, be a TH-camn.
Words to live by.

That's awesome! I love doing the camera backpacks for TCG stuff.
Loving this channel.
Thank you so much!

I'm checking my bigger boxes and I should have a recommendation soon. Didn't want you to think I was ignoring you.
@@beyondthedeckbox thank you for the reply! And no worries! I appreciate your time.
@@beyondthedeckbox I do have the tokens double sleeved btw
I want a smart hive that holds 6 decks. They alway have boxes that hold 4,8,10, but no 6...why?
This is a good point! 6 would be a nice middle ground size for a good game night. I’ll pass along the feedback. Couldn’t hurt!
@@beyondthedeckbox thanks.

What’s the difference between a Sealed kit and a Draft kit? Why does the Legion box only function well for one?
When you play sealed, you get six packs and you build a deck out of the cards. That means you need space for six packs worth of cards, lands, sleeves, etc.
In draft, you only have three packs of cards so you only need space for three packs, lands, etc.
The legion can fit three packs, lands, counters, and sleeves but it’s tight. Technically you could make it work for the six packs, but you might have to give up the dice and counters.
Hope that helps! Thanks!
@@beyondthedeckbox ah ok just a space consideration, thank you!
Woot
You could always send the twin flip n tray 266+ to me? I’ve been hunting one forever
Duuuude I was going to suggest the Peak bag! I've been using it for 3 years now and it's good as new. It's amazing!
That is awesome! I love that bag so much. Like I said in the video, I only wish I had gotten the bigger one.😆
As long as you dont buy the boulder 60, they're great!
