Rudy's Magic Store

Jacksonville, FL 32223
Used to collect every collector box but stopped around 10 sets ago, which is like 2 months
LMAO
theres like 40 total now in only 4 years. Hurry, buy the newest one, its super "collectible" lol
See, WotC did slow up production, only 37 secret lairs were released the time I wrote this message.
People should keep away from standard sets like the plague.
😂 haha
Rudy were waiting to see those heavy bags of metazoo
What happened to Metazoo? Lol
he's got no heavy bags, he refused to buy anything and dumped it on his patreons, the people who got heavy bags are the ones who listened to rudy
Have to respect the Rudy skill
in convincing the Timmies to buy
as the product is crashing in front of their eyes.
Rudy is your friend. All that shucking and jiving is to make his special friends smile.
Rudy really sounding like he’s trying to sell NFT Monkeys on this one. What retailer is sitting there ordering 1000 boxes of a Magic set going like “I’m gonna sell 200 now and then the other 800 when the price goes up in a few years”? All these boxes in the background are money sitting there doing nothing, it’s making about as much money as MetaZoo
A retailer does not sit on them, an investor however.....
But if we all just kept calm, stopped spreading FUD and just bought ~~crypto~~ product, we'd all be millionaire apes!
A murder mystery MTG is just a stupid idea.
I never got this set I think its retarded honestly
Still not as dumb as Dr. Who MTG….
@@vinzclortho8167 People really love the Doctor Who cards though.
Who knew crossing magic with your great grandfather’s favorite board game would flop ?!
Sorcery is doing great what do you mean? 😆
Not even magic can save Hasbro's stale IP.
Grandfathers favorite board game? Dude I played this as a kid! What were you born yesterday!?
@@MichaelSuperbacker Now I'm pining for the Hero Quest Universes Beyond
Honestly I quit buying all MTG products AND IT FEELS GREAT.
Market: Rejecting MKM
Rudy: I’m not ready to call it
The copium is strong with this one.
Those bags remain heavy. Wonder where Rudy gets all the money for this. Is he just borrowing on the value of his existing inventory as collateral?
[product 5 days old and hasn't collapsed]
Rudy: I'm calling it. It's a success! I told you! to the moon!!!!!
Who are here for the comment section?? I am selling popcorn 🍿
Does it come regular or extra salt???😂
I always bring my own popcorn...you got any snow caps
I would rather have pringles
You reckon Rudy's main business is actually popcorn and these videos are about creating a market to sell to?
@@that1jamo both, and actually it is first edition and a limited run kernel so you got to hurry!
Rudy why are you acting like some people liked Karlov where in the baldur’s gate have you heard ANYONE say anything positive about it
Imagine your last set being kahns of tarkir and coming back last year to how much worse the magic experience is now.
Makes me sad
It truly feels like Khans was the last good set they've done, everything is a mess now.
I’ve been watching this get lamer since innistrad block. New phyrexia was peak mtg
As long as you watch Rudy for entertaining purposes only, you will be fine.
All you angry crybabies makes good entertainment too 😁
I have a few LGS by me within a 15 min drive and another lgs (which is the nicest of course) that is 45 min away that i dont get to go to much. Almost all of them either didnt buy karlov manor, or are only selling whatever preorders ppl got. The one employee at sunday edh day, went into the room of 20 players saying “preprder only for karlov $142 a box, that the best we can do”….no one was interested, but a couple ppl did ask about the fallout decks. Even ravnica remastered didnt sell well by me, and only lost caverns set has done well since before commander masters. Every other set has flopped or been sitting on shelves collecting dust cuz its too expensive.
Beta Investments LLC. Buying boxes of failed TCG's for pennies on the dollar.
There is a lot of money to be made in "failed TCG's". There's probably money to be made on MetaZoo to be honest.
The set sucks, the price increase sucks, the invisible ink sucks, the 1940's typewriter font sucks, most of the art sucks, Murders at swipe left manor just outright sucks.
the prices have dropped for the past month and it hasn't even released yet.
Why should anyone care about all that suck? So we miss out on cards that suck. Western civilization will not fall because we don't pay higher prices for sucky cards.
They used unused Streets of New Capenna art for MKM. It makes for a very strange depiction of Ravnica.
"Oh that guy looks like he's from Streets of New Capenna."
"No he's a Ravnica detective. See we made him a detective, that's why he looks weird."
Is this confirmed? I actually thought some of the art looked a little out of place, but I figured it was my imagination.
@@sideshowonacidnot confirmed but at least one other channel is pedaling this theory.
I don’t really buy it. As a big fan of SNC, the art doesn’t look like it belongs on the plane either.
@@ironpalmmonk1199 Yeah because it's been touched up and altered by AI
@@damo9961 That’s a bit of a stretch. It would require art commissioned during SNC but for reasons never used. Even though the art wasn’t used, it would still be credited to the artist.
Then to do digital alterations would then call into question who to credit: the original artist or the one who didn’t touch ups. We can say “ the original did the touch ups “ but this is assuming all artist are proficient with doing digital alterations on a scale many are suggesting. If we are assuming some other artist used AI to touch up pre-existing work is plagiarism. With how quick artist call out AI art, we would have heard from someone by now.
There is a lot of ugly digital art in this set but it’s pure speculation and tin foil hat to think this is reused or modified existing SNC art.
You were just pumping this stuff. This is another junk set. Time to move on.
Wotc reducing print runs is only part of the solution. The cadence is still too fast and people continue to vote with their wallets. Me included.
when I grew up there were 3 standard releases per year and then a new core set every couple years, LOL
Yep. Those year alone there will be three releases by March!
Yup I can't keep up so I won't
Karlov’s poopshow is one of these products that never should have been made just like all these stupid Secret Lairs. First mtg set I have spent $0 on
same with aftermath
Only Rudy could say, "I *only* have a few hundred boxes left."
In the beginning, it was umu that reacted to Rudy. Now Rudy seems to react to umu.
The warehouse continues to clutter up.
umu = slime
Umu has literally nothing to say most of the time unless Rudy's game piece is up in his mouth 😂
Umu seems obsessed with rudychan 😂
UMU is a sad jealous little man.
Rare lands are a dollar each it’s a wrap for this set. It’s the best thing to happen to the Game Piece Army since Baldur’s.
This is not a bear or bad market, or nervousness, some people just discovered common sense.
WOTC has combined two products to simplify production and logistics, saving money on this, and is now targeting less accurately with one product the two consumer segments buying those two products beforehand - and of cause still expects to get along with a price increase. Well, did even Apple achieve something like this with its fanboy customer base...
They're trying to pull an Apple. Kick out the few people who think, for the money of the unthinking masses.
@@GoobNoob Should Hasbro and its shareholders care about the ass stinking greasy niche of MTG "investors" who do not even participate in their primary market?
What if I bought pallets of MetaZoo 2 years ago. Would I beat the S&P?
Has anything Rudy sold, ever beat the sp500? Lol
You never mention the most important fact, Rudy. The Karlov set sucks.
You literally invite Jace, and moment he he shows up he just points
“He did it”
Mystery solved
Not doing well because the new mechanics are shit and the art direction is stupid. All the guilds have detectives that apparently all wear trench coats and hats, including sphinxes and zombies. They couldn't even give each guild a unique look. Cards are also weak
This happens every time I don't throw thousands of dollars at a set. It's almost like my set evaluations are aligned with other mtg players. Here's a hint: If you think that at least 5 rares can definitely hold a value of over $10 (a land cycle or a cycle of something just as cool), buy a box. If you love the entire set and want all the cards, buy a case. If neither is true, buy your favourite card from the set for a deck (it will lose 50% of its value but whatever, you skipped the set and bought one card. Loss of maybe $1-$5 depending if you spent $2 or $10 on that one card.
Rudy, this is product is priced TOO DAMN HIGH. Make Play boxes 24 packs, for draft purposes. Drop the price a smidge, and sealed boxes will sell. The set itself is sorta meh, commons and uncommon hold more value than most of the rares! Poorly designed set and box sizes.
It's 36 packs so you can do two 6-person drafts.
@MSUHitman it's 36 packs for prize support.
Thank you for keeping draft boxes available for us. Its seriously appreciated. Still love draft. Dont know how to feel about play bixes becauae i like the cards but dont wanna pay $150 to draft. Yikes.
Sucks for stores but the $99 amazon dump is coming.
this set looks like Hasbro used characters from The Eternals.
Off brand eternals created by Ai
"Make sure stores don't cancel your pre-orders" - someone let me know how to do that
The fallout from Fallout is gonna be a doozy
MKM isn't a good set... value wise, or card wise..
Stopped carrying bout collector boxes after Midnight and vow. Singles all day
So maybe MKM is a weak set with zero appeal to the player base and it wasn’t just the game piece army hating on the product with their negativity.
Almost like Magic is a game first and a collectible second lol. Rudy stuck in 1997.
I feel like this haircut de-aged Rudy by 5 years.
Prerelease kit for this set increased in price from $30 to $48. What the actual fuck?
Disguise is just morph with ward. Garbage!
Yep I skipped prerelease for the first time in 3 years because I walked in with $30 for the prerelease event and found they raised it to $40. Sorry. Not paying 40 dollars for 6 draft packs.
My LCS had Play boxes for $150. I was pissed. $40 more than they sold set boxes for. Went home n bought all the singles I wanted for around $125 instead.
Dude our store was charging 160. And for what equates to a draft box. Because I’ll be the first to say that these play boosters are WAY worse than the old set packs. And negligibly better than old draft packs. I’m actually upset they’re doing this.
Anyone who actually plays MTG knows Manor was a rough sealed experience in prereleases and isn’t approachable for new players. Feels great on Arena. Morph and manifest combined with clue theme is a bad idea for a standard set.
Also all white cards that are not a white casting cost was a dumb idea
I've stopped after urza saga best decision ever this became a shitshow
It's a boring ass set. I can't even make it through opening videos I normally watch all the way through.
It's a shame the only chase cards in the set seem to be lower rarity than what they should be. Forensic Gadgeteer, Crime Novelist and laughably Slime Against Humanity (which seems more of a meme or pauper chase) feel like they could all comfortably sit at a higher rarity each. I would definitely speculate into No More Lies if it were a rare. Personally, I feel like Fugitive Codebreaker could use more attention and/or support. There are good cards here, just not enough to compete with the powerhouse that is currently Sheoldred.
Another important thing to factor is the standard rotation. There's currently a stale format that revolves around Sheoldred that people aren't going to be to fluid to testing with the new product (until it justifiably receives a ban or it rotates out). This appears to be the downside of having too many sets in standard, that there's an inherit resistance to receiving new product to the format. The next set release is the next forced rotation in a long time so we could see a wide and/or rapid change to pricings, for both sealed and singles.
The fact rudy doesnt play with anything he pumps is telling.
Karlov manor is the worst set since Dragons Maze
That’s not true. He plays with UMU’s gf.
Mmmmm. Double feature was pretty stupid
double feature wasn't a new set, they were reprints from both
midnight hunt and crimson vow @@sortasurvival5482
I think I pulled $100 of value from a collector box and play box. Going to enlist in the Buy Singles Armada.
My invisible ink is worth $14.
People like you that sit on the product forever are the reason this game sucks now tbh
It's a Dragon's Maze type situation - very unimpactful set except for very few cards.
Damn that brings memories back.
Dragon's Maze draft was great though, 1 pack from each set, Return to ravnica, gatecrash and dragons maze.
The very few cards that were impactful are the shocks, that is 10 more cards than in this MKM..
This
@@BlastsniperDragon Maze the set was not that great. Felt like rejected Ravnica cards
Wizards tried to make the collector boxes hold value by making the serialized cards really hard to pull. I think it may have backfired instead.
when scalpers trying to speedrun bankruptcy lmao.
Community Manager Timmy here from Timmy’s Emporium. Dump it! Dump it all! Carlos Motel is a dumpster fire and it’s all going to zero. Ya heard it here first folks. Timmy out!
My main lgs just told me they won't buy or sell singles from uncle karlovs foreclosed manor due to the high variation of singles.
I am curious what you mean by the high variance of singles?
I have not heard anything about this yet.
@@NewsIn60Secondsthey might be talking about how there are cards where the art has different colors. Say, the cape on a character could be red, green, or blue. But the collector numbers aren't changed.
@@1423big I figured it might have something to do with coloration, but not sure.
You're not going to see an upswing on a stupid product with dumb gimmicks from an abusive company that no one cares about
2 days after posting this video: Foreclosed Manor Play Booster Boxes are already down to $115 and Collectors to $169 on TCG. The set is tanking below cost.
Sounds like people have realized a Clue themed MTG set is... lame? 🤔 Contrived? A meme?
In a duel between planeswalkers, demigod-like beings who wield power over monsters, devils, and angels alike, who here thinks it "fits", flavour-wise, for one of these beings to stop, mid duel, and collect some evidence, to figure out what is really going on? Hire a detective? What about casting suspicion on an enemy's minion, thinking possible that the monster summoned by the enemy might want to ... do them harm? 🧐
Personally, I don't have very high hopes for the "Cowboy World" MTG set to bring anything original to the table. Sounds like another meme to me... Red Dead Redemption crossover anyone?
I was interested in the clue theme up to when I opened the prelease box and that with 15 boxes opened it was not enough to solve the first mystery . Parts were missing that could have been in another prerelease box.
Following mysteries were asking to use the image on the cards on scryfall instead of our cards because it was requiring a complete set of specific version of cards to solve them
Escape room are not interesting if there is no solution to escape
Western theme seems more workable than fkn clue. And ive been wondering for a long time now, of all games to do, why the heck clue? Does anyone even play clue anymore? Like chess is more popular, monopoly coulda been neet.
@@sortasurvival5482Hasbro owns Clue. It's cross-marketing.
@@Xoulrath_ ya, but hasboro has other more popular board games.
@@sortasurvival5482 Hasbro also only makes money from Wizards. Why the fuck would Hasbro push a game that's already selling? They wouldn't, which is why we got the Clue crossover.
Foreclosed Manor! That's the best thing I've heard since sliced bread
Modern Horizons 3 will have a crapload of fancy allied fetchlands people. Save your money for that. F these garbage standard sets
Fetchies plus new OP cards and/or reprints
Lmfao Rudy looks like he smells like spoiled milk lol
I was looking up my older cards and most have tanked in price. I dunno what’s happened in recent years but mtg cards have really dropped in price.
Anytime there's a "new" product from wotc they throw a shit set into it expecting the "shiny new!!!!" Aspect to carry it. Look at the epilogue booster box and now the play booster box. Wotc thinks their customers are brain-dead zombie wallets.
Metazoo and it's failure will forever be part of your brand because it literally has your picture and handprints all over it.
right now - play booster boxes are under 100, collector boxes are at 135 on eb ay.
Bro been on his cope grind
This reminds me of OG Ixalan. After "Hour of devastate your wallet" everyone was scared, Ixalan was seen as trash and Rivlas was just a dumpster fire. A few months later they became the best aging sealed products in a long time.
Set is dogshit. Cards are ugly
I agree that there's some good cards in it, but it feels so amateurishly put together, you'd think they used people from Metazoo.
Maybe you should have taken your own advice with RVR rather than declare it a victory out the gate
I think you're wrong about this one, over the long-term you'll probably be right, but short-term 3-6 months, dont think so. Foreclosure will stay
I don't like the idea / theme of the set but I like some cards. Commons and uncommons are mega juiced up. I think the set will have 3x 5$ uncommons and a couple of 1-2$ commons. And no I'm not joking lol. They're that pushed for constructed.
Unfortunately the good uncommons are kind of obvious: "lol better mana leak". So there's not much opportunity spec wise because they're already pricy. Speccing on 2$ uncommons is simply stupid haha. Even if it goes to 4$ you're just breaking even.
The set has no identity and is the worst quality in years. This whole “Made in Japan” card stock is some of the worst trash I’ve seen in years. They need to stop. Made in USA print runs are way better foiling. They want $200-300 a box, the stock is thin, cores are becoming like construction paper, cards are paper thin, messed up edges, dents out of a pack, foils are dull…NO THANKS! They have a serious quality control issue and want hundreds of dollars? Overpriced junk…people are just waking up. Terrible inflation going on, few people have hundreds of dollars for hobbies right now and their idea is a price increase 😂 Can’t make this shit up, like you said…life sets the best stage.
We have reprinted serialized cards.... most of the sought after cards from karlov are common/uncommon, there's better sets coming...
Why buy this again? Oh right, because other people didn't? I'll pass.
Rudy back in 1997-98 when I used to buy 4rth ed., ice age, fallen empires, etc. a box of boosters was around 40.00 and that was after retailers had gotten them. You could sell a pack comfortably for 3.00 and you could effectively sell 15 out of 36 packs to your friends to order another box and open the other 17 to collect yourself. Everything you said Rudy is what's wrong with the state of the game and ever the stuff you said about when it was good was still what was wrong with the game. A box of legends during this time was 3 years old could still be bought for around 120 bucks...it doesn't matter what happens or what they print ....until hasbeen and wizards of the crotch decide to price product based on how to make enough money to operate based on the price of cardboard it will never be good again
Heavy bags
Not a good set, just not widely liked. There are 2 or 3 cards that people will buy in bulk, but this is not the kind of set to buy a box or 2 of and happily keep them for a rainy day. And the lgs' selling the play booster pks at 6$/pk is unbelievably stupid. Like the lgs people can't do math or something...... not gonna age well.
3 mana face down and high flip up costs felt very clunky outside of draft play.
Serialized cards are the dumbest thing ever.
Play boosters being anything above 120 is a rip off. Period.
I much rather $100 draft than this bs.
Who cares about this? Store owners? Who gives a shit about the price of these things? Why is anyone buying a box of Magic?
This set sucks imo
When you've had a few banger sets (all game pieces 🌮), in a relatively short amount of time, there's of course going to be a set that comes out that fails to live up to expectations
Buy high (from Roody) sell low, that’s the regard way
play booster boxes already available in large quantities at $99. do people miss all of his incorrect predictions because he bloviates for 30 minutes each video?
This set is miserable to draft, it feels weird. I gauge how well a set is doing based on a specific Wal-Mart. If there is zero product on the shelves, then I know its a hot set, however there is tons of this product. I don't think people like this set.
Getting rid of set boxes was a W. Getting rid of draft boxes was a MASSIVE L. Play boxes are dead in water from the jump. Just another way for hasbro to extract more money from the players. Don't even mention jumpstart.
Jumpstart was good a every other year thing to get new players an easy in to the game. Terribly stupid for every set tho.
Who knew play booster boxes would turn out to be even cheaper than set boxes!😂
“……FOLKS!!” Woke my ass up 😂 lmfao, love it.
Dog are you joking me? Theme is trash, cards are trash, no one wants trash.
You cant sell your friends boxes for 180 and tell us you gave us all that price.. evil Roodie ra ra ra! 😂
I now want Wizards to release a set called "What If" so Rudy can say he literally has a case of the "What if"s.
I think the surveil lands might keep going up seeing more play in modern than anticipated - especially if not a whole lot of people are opening this product.
It just feels like some Nancy drew bullshit. The vibe isn't there.
the set is just crap. it was crap yesterday, its crap today, its gonna be crap tomorrow. I'll not spend a single dime on it.
to my, is so stupid to have 1 product almost every month... 1 product every 6 moths is enough
hate mutate, hate energy, hate day night,hate flip up cards, hate split cards...these cards add soooooo much rule checks and time to the game...... time thats not fun playing
No Amazon dumps… but Rudy got in on it. Hilarious
Katlov's Foreclosed Manor 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
This set is Dragons Maze/Prophecy/Homelands bad. First set in 5 years that I’ve not sold 85% or more on opening weekend.
Why boring looking creatures is not a good idea. Not the mechanic just the looks!
Dear taco king, I have skipped out on the last couple sets of magic because it’s garbage
Where can you find the list of invis ink cards? I've only seen a handful for sale.
The set sux . I’ve seen a bunch of opening vids and it’s a total fukn disgrace
