I would buy a couple at 50 $ just for the nostalgic feeling of bringing me back when I was 13 and my brother showed me this game for the first time in his basement room lol !
YES!!! The memories makes it priceless!! I love these comments of memories!!!
Wish they were still $50
Melissa Benson is one of my favorite MTG artists. Her and Richard Kane Ferguson.
I made a custom card way back in the day named "Glyph of Melissa Benson" that when played buried all cards with her artwork.
If you still have that Necro, you made it back today.
Those snow covered lands are neat. Wizards should have put more in the starter deck.
I know right, and you could only get them from the starters which made no sense!!
I remember my friend buying booster boxes and selling these at school. Using lunch money to buy booster packs. priceless.
Oh wow!! Love it!!
Starter Decks (Tournament Decks as they were called later) were always my favorite to open as a kid! Thanks for opening this, even if there's not a lot of monetary value!
Priceless artwork for such manahungry cards! I remember always trying to play the Polar Kraken, but ending up having to sac all my lands cause of the cumulative upkeep :/
Four years later the deck is 100+$
Great Video, just found the channel recently and I've been really enjoying your videos!
Thanks so much! Welcome!!!!
Oddly enough...Ice Age is my favorite set hahaha nostalgia!
That's why I say … Ahh The memories!!
I miss ice age. I used to play with only snow covered lands 😀
They had the best art.
True fantastic art!
Necropotence and Jokulhops? This would have been a killer pack in 1996.
This was part of my childhood. Thank you so much.
No problem!! That's why opening is always priceless! the memories!
I know how much everyone loves that laugh.
You can get them for less than $50 if you get lucky on ebay auctions. I got one for $31 shipped a couple weeks ago. But you're not getting $31 out of almost any Ice Age starter deck either. ButI think a lot of peop;le are like me and just buy it every now and then for the nostalgia. It was the 1st expansion that came out after I started playing during 4th edition. I got a booster box for my 15th birthday. Even though it's a garbage set in terms of card quality, it still makes me happy.
Nice!! Love hearing the stories from people like the birthday booster box!! Thanks for sharing!
@@openboosters I never got a Jester's Cap in that box, which bummed me out. LOL. That was the big chase card back in the day, right?
It was, along with Mask, Great times. I had to trade for mine too!
snow covered lands and opening is always priceless here at openboosters..
Opening is always priceless!! So fun!! Let's put on some skies!
This was my favorite. I would love to open a box of starters for ice age.
Awesome!!
Love this artwork
Oh hey, it's the same box of cards I started with waaaay back in elementary school. Probably even some of the same cards, though there's definitely some I don't remember in this batch (somehow I completely forgot there was ever a Saber-Toothed Tiger card...)
I love it when the memories flood back!
Again, this would have been a blast back in the day
i got excited whemn he said 50$ i went to find one but they are now 150.00$ necropotence is 50.00$
You forgot the manual and the box. That'll put you over the border. Better hurry tho, cuz the, 'wall'!
Aah snowlands...
There are pretty!
Low value, but beautiful art and set. So extensive and full of weird mechanics and cards. I remember when Jester's Mask and Cap came out and we all went nuts! Would love to do a draft with them..
So fun! I remember Mask and Cap too!!! Crazy times!
@@openboosters I actually build an ice age deck not to long ago just for fun. I believe it never won a single game, but boy it is fun to play with! Maybe I should share it on TH-cam
Awesome! Thank you
No problem, Glad to do it!
back in the day, the Necropotence and Jolulhaups would have been smash hits........
It is not important to me to break even : as openingis always priceless
YES!!! Opening are always priceless!!! :)
@@openboosters I never had a chance to open any retro MtG packs. Instead, I opened retro Pokémon and retro Harry Potter ones. Based on your personal price/flavor ratio, which retro packs / starter would you recommend ? $50 might be overpriced but at least, this is affordable for old cards.
Awesome video as usual, I ordered one of these a couple of days ago xD
Nice!!! You going to open or hold on to it?
@@openboosters Oh man I wanna say hold, but might have to chain my arms to the desk to keep my claws away from it lol
LOL!! Totally understand!!!
Ice Age is prolly my favorite expansion set
"Kevorkian" Vampire. Lol
if you don't pull a foil lilliana you won't break even with Ice Age.. great nostalgia thou and some people are just drawn to the snow which is why its 50$ per starter
Ahh the snowy lands! Ski Weather is amazing!
Man I loved Black Summer (tm).
I bought a sealed one just because it was cheap, plan on keeping it sealed though until I give in or if it goes up in price over the next 10 years
50 a pop because it's rudy's favorite set and he has pallets of it hidden in his bunker somewhere....
1 of the 3 sets I love the most especially the basic lands. The other 2 being mirage and tempest.
it just snowed here in philly and I love ice age so perfect!
also has some of my favorite basic land art of all time
YES!! Knew it would be snowing somewhere!!!
Hmmm. It still puzzles me why it's selling for some much. It's not like they're rare. There still is so much Ice Age out there. I love the set but strickly for the lands and the swords to plowshares. I agree with you. It's way off. Nice video to have on a quiet sunday! Thanks for opening this for us Ob! All the best.
No problem Glad to do it! I know its an Ice Age in Canada at the moment! You need to head south!
@@openboosters would if I could my friend. Would definitely make it for warmer weather.
Same thing is happening with Revised packs/boxes. There is no mathematical way to profit given the mix of dual lands. Think it is people not understanding value and over paying.
I think the demand is in semi affordable old school drafts and sealed
Inferno and pyroclasm were great cards too
I remember seeing ice age at an LGS back when and always pulling junk lol.
LOL! No Caps or Mask?
@@openboosters not that I remember lol
Oh no!!!
@@openboosters it was super long ago. I might not have realised I had money cards. Im working on a physical version of the mtgarena merfolk deck current! First paper deck in maybe 6 or 7 years
When my buddy and I were young, he saved a bunch of money to buy a starter pack box looking for a jesters cap. No luck, that was rough for him.
Yeah a lot of people were trying to get the Jesters cap. Hard to find a trade for it too!
So much rubber squeaking noises
Yay ice age, I really want to replace my set of basics with snow lands. Nice hits. 50 a starter is insane.
True right insanity! Playing with Snow covered lands as basics priceless!
@@openboosters there is a practical side to in mono colored commander. Extraplanar Lens can make snow covered lands tap for double while not giving any op's the benefit. I just don't have a ton from back in the day so it is a slow process of buying one here or there when I am at the lgs.
I’ve opened many an Iceage starter... and I’ve never once opened one high value Iceage card. the set was just too damn big hahaha!
It was really big!!!
its OPENBOOSTERS!
It is!!!!! Hello!!!!!
I don't even like magic or play it and I enjoy these lol
That's great! I think everyone can enjoy the art at the very least.
But I thought you said "opening is always priceless"!
It is, Opening is always priceless!!
Great hit with Necro! But why the "meh" reaction to Jokulhaups? For me this was one of the cards I used the most back in the days, so much fun!
It's not that it was a bad card, I use to counter spell it a lot. LOL! I preferred disk and Armageddon, instead of a 6 mana cost spell. (also the deck didn't have red.) Just a spell preference.
I think the reason the price is so high is mainly because of the snow-coverd mountains and islands show up enough that they boost up the price.
I think its because most of the money from this set comes from the land section.
#BlameColdsnap
I came for snow lands😍
LOL! So fun!!
They are mostly higher in price because of scarcity, but of you get lucky and hit a string of snow covered lands, you can get some value back
I haven't seen a starter with many snow covered land. Max I have seen is 7 :(
Yeah, that's pretty rough. Some of the best art in the history of the game though, so at least Ice Age has that going for it
Truly does!!
If they are pack fresh wouldn't you get high price for them?
Make the winter stop already, 15" is too much winter for me...my whole body aches from shoveling. Given power level Necropotence is so severely undervalued, singehandedly wins games when cast. Often early on in games.
That is true it does win games quick!!! I need to find a package of summer magic.
I think its pretty consistent you will get at lease 30 dollars with how much the snow cover lands and basic lands sell for. Obvious people don't buy to open to make a profit.If each starter avg 35 dollars in cards then you be taken a loss of 15. People like to relive the past and for some its worth lossing 15 dollars for the enjoyment I guess.
Would it kill you to read the cards
why so sad when you saw jokulhaupps ? that's the best card in the set as far as I know. I'm not fond of edh but it looks like a boardwipe lots of decks there would be interested in playing
Ice Age is when I first heard of MTG and thought the “touch of death” was the coolest card.. but never understood and still don’t understand the game.. just like looking at the artworks
The art work is what draws people in :) Everyone can appreciate the art at some level I think!
its cold
Truly is!
Yep. My fifty went to firewood. 🔥 Wait, no, that was the other guy!0)
I saw a video a while back where you talked about Deriums and I was wondering if you lived in Ohio as well
Nope :( That would have been fun if I did!
Actually, your math is off. Thermokarst, Swords, Fyndhorn Elves, there are significant amounts of commons and uncommons in Ice Age that retail for over a dollar, some of them several dollars. If your uncommons would have been better, you would have been much farther ahead.
That's a lot of colors for a starter deck does it play well?
I had this when it first came out. The answer is no, not at all! But I loved it because it was my only deck and I was 8 :)
Ice Age came out right when I first played Magic so I am nostalgic for many of the cards and the artwork. But tbh the expansion kind of sucked even back then.
Just because of too many reprints. Remember Mask and Cap
snow covered lands re like 2 to 4 bucks each
True, Scanned them. That was most of the value.
Can you explain what Snowfall (ice age) did? I have this card and it seems completely worthless. You get to produce extra mana, but only for the sole purpose of paying Snowfall's upkeep. Am I missing something?
What app is that?

Thanks for explaining why not to buy this junk
Ah yes. Ice Age. I recall opening packs of these and just being disappointed at how awful the cards were. This set and Homelands were the two that basically turned me off of magic for the next... 15 years or so, when I finally got back into it during Scars of Mirrodin.
I never came back after Ice Age
We always come back for more don't we!
maybe they are worth more in a few years
Probably going to go up in the future!
Yeah it averages $130 on eBay now
I find it more enjoyable and cost effective to just burn Ice Age cards for heat.
LOL!
the game was just so different back then. think about it, the Legends set is pathetic compared to even the non-legend cards now. The power level of cards has just grown so much.
That is true.
Ice Age is the reason why I quit Magic The Gathering all those years ago.
True for me as well, but truly quit during homelands
these cards are way too shiny tbh
They were shiny!
Ice age still crap 20 odd years later.
LOL!
