For those curious, I did not include the Stanely Toolkit or Amazon Basics backpack because those are 'Everyday Items' that can be used for MTG, and this video is meant to look at actual products built for the game. If you'd like to see that review, it can be found here: th-cam.com/video/kSm49YvmBbg/w-d-xo.html
I was wondering about that. I got a variation on the Stanley tool box and it's so far been my favorite storage. Has been great for my kids collections too as they are rough on everything. Love your appearances on Game Knights!
Professor, please can you do a video explaining the changes in competitive play? What is a Mythic CHampionship!?! is it just the pro tour by another name? ty
FYI...the previous version of the Stanley Toolkit has gone out of production, though you might still be able to pick up one of the old stock in store. The new versions seems to have those odd triangular corners. and even if it didn't seems to be of iffy quality.
I actually for quite some time been using the deep compartment stanley toolbox from the video "products not designed for magic that are good for it" and let me tell you, while i have more than 12 commanders, being able to come to my lgs with this thing and have my friends keep lend different commanders of mine for each game is very fun. I have been officialy been annonced as the store's "commander dealer"
@@BloodpactORG first of all it doesnt make it worthless just less appealing second im sure anyone that spends any larger amount of money takes good care of their cards unless youre rudy
Dude, my family watches your channel. My dad got into MTG because he worked at a comic book store since he was adult (When MTG first became a game). Him and my uncle got obsessed with the game and even taught me and my cousins how to play. You're definitely a professor for sure.
I really appreciate all the time and effort you put into these videos. They are a valuable resource for someone who wants a great product but doesn’t have the money to test everything out themselves.
I have owned the large Pirate Labs case for a little over a year now and its one of the best purchases I've made. its durable and while mine has seen some wear on the edges due to my carelessness, its still very strong and completely protects my travelling collection. my friends and I play a lot of Commander and as its stands my bag is carrying 6 commander decks, one Standard deck, a box of lands for when i'm doing drafts or limited, box of tokens, several dice containers, my playmat and my trade binder. its basically everything I need for a night of Magic no matter where I go, and I also would like to point out the color options. while they are varied, I particularly was please I was able to find regulation US military Coyote Brown color for mine as so I could bring it to military trips the Army sends me on and it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb amongst my other gear. 100% would buy again.
I've been looking for a proper carrying case to fit a trade binder, playmat, and a couple of Commander decks but I had no idea the Piratelab case exsisted! Thank you so very much Prof!
The Pirate Lab carrying case is absolutely amazing! I don't regret buying it at all. Now I just wish they sold more of their accessories in Europe, because I want a few of those full-row foam inlays.
I love the KMC. I have three. One holds my pauper cube, one holds my unstable set cube, and one holds my eight budget 'gauntlet' commander decks. I'm considering dropping the commander decks box to 6-7 so it can fit dice and tokens for all of them, which don't fit with 8 decks in dragon shields (but actually because I want to upgrade a couple of those budget decks).
I want to say how much I love and appreciate what you do prof. All your videos are amazing and you help me make the best out of money when buying product. Keep up the amazing work
Professor, thank goodness! I was starting to worry that you uploaded a card case video without throwing stuff around...I'm glad I waited before rushing to the comments. XD
Completely agree that the Ultimate Guard boxes are perfect for carrying around the your playable decks. I've got one for Modern, one for Standard, and one for the card kingdom Battle Decks.
I'm likely never getting one of these cases since I have one commander deck and one modern deck but man I love the profs vids. His voice is like ASMR for me
After having used it for a couple of years, the REP MTG-1 has served me incredibly well, it carries 8 of my commander decks in Ultra Pro commander deck boxes, as well as my playmat and dice! It’s been dropped, sat on, and still looks immaculate. I got it during one of the mass drop sales at 60$. Id say it’s a pretty damn good choice! I just wish they offered a larger version.
It seems funny to have to point this out, but it didn't occur to me immediately, so I thought I'd share. The removable compartments in the Dex Protection Supreme Game Chest can hold about 95 double-sleeved cards, but if you take them out, you can put around 125 double-sleeved cards in the spots where the compartments would have been. With the compartments removed, I'm able to hold a double-sleeved 1050 card cube in the chest.
just recently got back into Pokemon TCG collecting after finally learning how to play the game, this is absolutely helpful, now i don't have to find a way to shove them into old tins & shoeboxes, i appreciate your videos !! :'-0
These are all quite nice, but I'm still plenty content using my inexpensive cardboard card boxes for storage and transport. That they're inexpensive is important because I've got a ton of cards (and cubes) that need storage and sorting, but they're also easy to label, so I know what's in each box from just glancing at its side. And they don't open or spill easily. While durability is theoretically limited, I've never experienced one of these boxes getting damaged beyond use yet from regular transport, so I see little reason to pay more for a fancy box.
Another awesome video, Sir. Well done. I ended up getting the Stanley Deep Parts Bin because of one of these videos and it's been working wonderfully for my needs. Thank you for the great deck box alternatives and keep them coming.
Do you have a video debating when it's a good time to get a binder over a storage case? Or vice versa? My magic cards are in a big 4 inch binder, but idk if that's the best way to go :(
Thanks Professor! All of your review videos are very helpful for making the best decisions on how to protect and display my Magic cards. Sincerely appreciated sir and have a Merry Christmas!
Thanks Prof, just ordered a couple of the KMC's - definitely time to upgrade storage for my overflowing Arkham Horror LCG , AEONS End and Legendary collections - it's not just my MTG collection that needs some box love 😋
For your Q & A I want to know what's your favorite format to play? And do you prefer prerelease or draft? Also, I love your videos. I got one of my friends watching your videos and he really appreciates your views.
The Dex protect box does allow for 60 card decks (single sleeved as I do) left in dragon shield boxes.. This is quite nice. Otherwise, using ribbon to separate decks works great to allow you to grab them out with ease. I have one and it is amazing.
I love my Dex case. I have the gray one. It gets nowhere near as many hand prints on the outside. That Velcro has not worn out. Soooooo good. The only thing I've noticed is that the inner corners of the suede are starting to wear out. Otherwise, best case out there!!!
I use the "Ultimate Guard Archive". Placing 4 Boulder in it to go to any tournaments. Way more efficient in terms of storage and space than single boxes in a backpack. Boulders are excellent too. I'm using only the 100+ ones, offering me enough space for a double sleeved legacy deck + a lot tokens. I use about 13 thick sleeved tokens from GnD and still have room.
The first time I encountered the Dex box, I was at Magicfest in Vegas and asked if I could open it and look inside. The guy at the booth said "of course" and I tried to open it and thought I was trying to open the incorrect side at first. The first time opening was difficult due to the strength. I bought the box. It houses the Unstable Cube because the red fits so well for that set.
KMC card barrier box is the perfect box for a cube. It fits a large double sleeved cube perfectly or in my case I have my double sleeved 540 card cube plus basic lands
Man, wish I could have seen this sooner. I just moved from China to Japan. XD I didn't even think about checking your older videos for cases like this. Thankfully the boxes and such I had were protective enough! =D
I bought a KMC Card Barrier Box after I saw another review you made on it before. Mine cracked after a bit, but it is still very usable and that Crack is pretty superficial and doesn’t effect the protection.
I have two of those Card Barrier Box. Almost 4 years. So great! For some reason they heavy duty super glue for the label sticker. So had a pretty difficult time getting off. But other than that, excellent box. The problem I've always had with Ultimate Guard is their logo. It's ugly. I wanted to get their card box, but opted for a different brand with a nice dragon symbol logo.
Ultimate Guard's pure text logo is one of the only good looking logos among card product companies. It's only ugly when they put that over-arching bodybuilder on top of it.
I love the Ark Hive, but I use the Super Hive. Holds 5 or 6 Boulders (depending on 80+ or 100+) 2 playmats and a dice compartment. It has the same magnet closure.
Just a quick note on Ultimate Guard products. If your double sleeved commander deck is completely foiled or has painted cards, it will not fit in an Ultimate Guard deck box. Foil cards are ever so slightly thicker than normal cards. I creased a foil Burgeoning and a foil Dissension Ghost Quarter trying to fit my all foil, double sleeved commander deck into a flipn tray. Boulders use the same dimensions.
@@christmas6666 Luckily the damage isn't that noticeable. The creases are right directly on the border edge of the text box, so it kind of blends in and it's not visible on the back of the cards. It's just that I know the crease is there and you can see it in the right lighting and it drives me nuts lol
The best MTG deck cases you can get at a thrift store.. go to your thrift store and buy a brief case metal or leather. Then cut out all the inserts in it and it will hold 30 decks. Also most brief cases comes with combination locks.
Prof, this was a great video! I just wish you had included links to purchase the items as you didn't include the prices for everything in the video. Card Kingdom has the Pirate Lab small game case and the KMC card carrier. Seems like including those two links would have been a no-brainer, as I can see the argument for not including links to products not available from CK.
Simply because of this channel (literally because of Tolarian Community College)I try to buy all my singles at my local game store which by the way the only way i can get there is by bike and it takes one hour both ways for a combined 2 hours. It hasn't had everything I've looked for so the singles it doesn't have i usually buy at tcgplayer.com. The singles it does have that i need i will get there.
Ok this is scary!, last night I was watching Professors old vids on cases and deck boxes and said to myself, I wish he had an updated one. Woke up this morning and look whats on my feed! are you spying on me Professor?
I usually agree with the professor, and again he is almost 100% right here. But The best deck box is the one my student 3D printed for me! It's the companion cube from portal, it can hold 2 decks, 2 sideboard and 32 small D6.
I’ve got a lot of Commander decks in the old Ultra Pro fliptop boxes, as well as the Ultimate Guard flip tops. Will the Pirate Bay cases carry a few of them painlessly?
Prof-love the vids, been watching you for years. That said, how do you cope with sideways storage? I know I'm not alone in my hatred for the sideways storage system. You can't readily flip through the contents and you basically have to remove the entire section to look through them. For me (any many others) vertical storage is the only way to go. You can easily thumb through them and view the contents with ease. Your number one choice makes me nervous looking at indistinguishable cards laid sideways. How can you possibly know what's in there without memorization or removing them all?! I'm surprised to see a sideways storage box in the number one slot.
about 15 years ago i got this "Jammers Quality Cases Jumbo Card Case" and doing a quick online search i can't seem to find it being sold or reviewed anywhere. it looks a lot like the KMC Card Barrier Box except it has 6 compartments that are about the same size and instead of the cards being sideways they are upright. on the box it says it could hold 1000 jumbo card capacity or 2000 standard card capacity but from my experience i could probably hold 2,100 sleeveless yugioh cards in it or 350 cards per compartment. i don't have a lot of sleeved cards but if i guessed i'd say it would probably fit about 1,800 sleeved yugioh cards or 300 per compartment i dont know. the Jammers Quality Cases Jumbo Card Case can also fit sleeveless pokemon cards but i know it can't fit sleeved pokemon cards. the sleeve size is just too big to fit.
Hi Prof! Just of curiosity, does the pirate labs cases include the backpack and messenger bag they made a while back? I think those are super neat and were wondering why they weren't included. Thanks as always for the video!

my life in a nutshell
could use a new jacket or some winter shoes but why not by magic cards instead
Same. XD One day I will have more disposable income...to spend on more cards! I rely of friends and family to gift me with deck boxes and such.
This is how you become one of the people with a huge collection that's worthless due to nothing in it being near mint.

My BF uses camera bags to bring decks to FNM and it honestly works so well. They're designed to protect cameras, so they protect deck boxes very well!

Is there a chance that you will review the new game of Keyforge? I know this is off topic. The excellent KMC box holds my Keyforge decks.
Thanks, been looking for keyforge storage
As much as I like the Stanley Deep Pro Box, it did not sell overseas or post to overseas :(
Prof-love the vids, been watching you for years. That said, how do you cope with sideways storage? I know I'm not alone in my hatred for the sideways storage system. You can't readily flip through the contents and you basically have to remove the entire section to look through them. For me (any many others) vertical storage is the only way to go. You can easily thumb through them and view the contents with ease. Your number one choice makes me nervous looking at indistinguishable cards laid sideways. How can you possibly know what's in there without memorization or removing them all?!
I'm surprised to see a sideways storage box in the number one slot.
Professor, when are you going to get into Keyforge?? Love to see your thoughts!
Your awesome professor I really appreciate all the time and effort you put into making these videos your a godsend
about 15 years ago i got this "Jammers Quality Cases Jumbo Card Case" and doing a quick online search i can't seem to find it being sold or reviewed anywhere.
it looks a lot like the KMC Card Barrier Box except it has 6 compartments that are about the same size and instead of the cards being sideways they are upright. on the box it says it could hold 1000 jumbo card capacity or 2000 standard card capacity but from my experience i could probably hold 2,100 sleeveless yugioh cards in it or 350 cards per compartment. i don't have a lot of sleeved cards but if i guessed i'd say it would probably fit about 1,800 sleeved yugioh cards or 300 per compartment i dont know.
the Jammers Quality Cases Jumbo Card Case can also fit sleeveless pokemon cards but i know it can't fit sleeved pokemon cards. the sleeve size is just too big to fit.
Hi Prof! Just of curiosity, does the pirate labs cases include the backpack and messenger bag they made a while back? I think those are super neat and were wondering why they weren't included. Thanks as always for the video!
So useful! As always. Thank you Professor 😊✌
I love my arkhive, thanks prof!
Why can't I like twice?! The flips at the end made the video.
