The Last Long Version I did. Did have some pretty epic pulls in this box of Modern Masters! You guys are kicking soooo much arse with the thumbs up button! Ill upload another box at 300 likes, just the uncommons and rares! Help a poor mage out by CRUSHING that LIKE button under the video Like a Baws!!!!
This is the second time in a row you forget reading all of the cards: Dragonstorm have the Storm Effect, that if you have ex. cast 2 x Seething Song and a rite of flames to cast dragonstorm you can search your library for not 1, but 4 dragons and put them onto the battlefield.. thats why that card is sooo good..
Could you go through all the rares/valuable cards you got at the end? It's nice being able to see them all at once and more accurately determine the value of the box.
I'm saving my box for a draft as well, but I opened a few extra packs and got a vendilion clique, two finks (one foil), two scion of oonas (one foil), and a path to exile!
A lot of people enjoy opening packs and cant afford to drop $270+ on a box so this is the next best thing mtgHQ just ignore the troll what you do is awesome! keep it up!!
dragonstorm is better than u think, if u didnt know by now, it also has the 'storm' keyword. it is a central part of a first turn win deck, which is pretty fun.
Dark Confidant... named "Bob" after Bob Maher who is a competitive player (though I don't think he's been active in a few years) who won the right to design a card, it first appeared in Ravnica, City of Guilds.
The beauty of Dragonstorm isn't to pay 9 to get a dragon out. Read its Storm effect! It copies itself for each spell you played before it that same turn. So, for example, if you mana ramped up to 9 with 3 Dark Rituals, Dragonstorm would copy itself 3 times for a total of 4 Dragonstorms. Then if you had 4 Bogardan Hellkites in you deck, you could put all 4 of them into play, causing your opponent to lose 20 life because they deal 5 damage as soon as they come in.
I managed to draft a complete Pyromancers Swath deck with this set, usually burned my opponent to 10 at turn 4 before going off and either resolving Pyromancers Swath + Grapeshot or a lot of burn + Empty the Warrens.
When I get my first MM booster pack, I hope I get either Doubling Season, Elspeth, Kiki-Jiki, Figure of Destiny, Greater Gargadon, Kira Great Glass Spinner.
Slightly off topic, stupid question, but do you use an external microphone [and if so what brand/model?] or have video cameras gotten good enough where they can have a great quality mic built in?
do you know Dragonstorm has a second ability called Storm? "When you cast this spell, copy it for each spell cast before it this turn" cuz it seems like you don't notice it
No, its played in everything that can play it, in modern (almost atleast). the fact that you can draw an extra card a turn for only 2 mana, while still having a fairly decent creature on the board is completely absurd, and somtimes you dont even have to pay life for him, as he ends up hitting lands, or one mana spells, and even if you hit two 4-drops its still worth it. Search for Yuya watanabe and Shouta Yasooke (might have misspelled that) to see it in play.
I enjoyed a lot your video, I wish i could buy a box but online retailers prices are ridiculus and in my country just a couple stores got a few boxes wich are gonna be using for drafting.
I really like the longer format with reading the commons (though that seems to be a minority opinion), maybe a recap at the end with the rares for those who want to skip ahead.
MTG Salvation Wiki: "Dark Confidant is so nicknamed after Bob Maher, its creator. Maher won the right to design and be immortalized in his 2004 Magic Invitational submission."
Nice pulls I wish I would get good ones I've bought 2 boosters in the past and never get anything worth going crazy over like how most people on TH-cam pull crazy stuff I get the crap packs oh well that's my luck but nice pulls man and keep postin
So I am planing on selling my cards so I can start a channel like this one but it would be my first time do I was wondering if you could tell me how to get started and if you have any tips that would be great.
Ahhh and this is why most MTG players will remain virgins forever. More than any other game players, I've found MTG players to be the most insufferable, obnoxious, arrogant and pretentious BY FAR. Not sure why that is but man I wish the community for this game wasn't so fucking toxic. Makes it REALLY hard to get into.
sorry that he doesnt spend time trying to memorizing all the cards like you do, and btw this channel is probably the best for mtg on youtube so if all you want to say is hate then go away no one wants that.
Question what is a bob? what card is it, it confuses me when you said is there a bob. I keep thinking what card is called bob. Please explain to me what is bob please. Thank you.
asmodai2k2 Because he only cares about value, he doesnt really care about the cards themselves, since he doesnt know them. There are many good cards without high value. :(
Kim Bach yes and it actually hurts to see a box of modern masters, a set designed to be drafted, opened by a value hound, but I realize I'm probably too much of an idealist
Kim Bach The sad part too is that he actually got alot of good Modern stuff. I'd have been happy as shit with just Blood Moon, Kiki-Jiki and that foil Lava spike :(
its reprints of modern format staples to make modern more accessible to newer players. There is still some very expensive cards in the set hence its higher cost.
@michael minner it may sound like idle complaining but if majority of the comments are saying the same thing its something for him to consider to keep his viewers
If you don't like how the guy says the card names you have two choices, 1. Mute the sound and read the cards yourself or 2. Don't watch the videos Common sense is so underrated these days.
Then why are you here watching these videos? Unless you'r just here to troll or start a fight? If that is the case then go back under the bridge where you came from troll. Edit: People moan to much about "pronunciation" so he said the name of the card wrong, so what. You can see the card name quite clearly and you can read it yourself, so I will repeat what I said before. If you don't like how he says the cards name then mute the video and read the name of the card as he flicks though them. People are to quick to criticise on a persons video instead of just appreciating it. This guy has bothered to buy a box, sit down and show you cards you could get and upload the video for everyone to take a look at he didn't have to do it and he doesn't have to pronounce the names 100% correctly as long as you can clearly see the name on the top of the card.

Another insane video. This is one channel that I want to see flooding my subscription box with content. Thanks
lol i love how he sounds disappointed at pulling a $23 aether vial haha
+Ethan Rubin Now it's $45 ;-;
Loved seeing you peel that Vendilion Clique in the last video man. Looks like a very enjoyable draft set too.
16:20 What an absurdly great pull. Modern masters is such a ridiculous set!
This is the second time in a row you forget reading all of the cards: Dragonstorm have the Storm Effect, that if you have ex. cast 2 x Seething Song and a rite of flames to cast dragonstorm you can search your library for not 1, but 4 dragons and put them onto the battlefield.. thats why that card is sooo good..

Sick pull Elspeth + Foil sword... my best in 2 boxes.. live in front of the store owner
--> Sarkhan + Sarkhan Foil same pack!
Bought 4 packs today with a box coming next week and I pulled a Goyf, a foil Grand Arbiter, Knight of the Reliquary, and Kitchen Finks
I'm saving my box for a draft as well, but I opened a few extra packs and got a vendilion clique, two finks (one foil), two scion of oonas (one foil), and a path to exile!
I love this guy unwrapping a foil Gifts Ungiven and he's all "Well, at least it's a foil rare" xD As if it's not an eternal format staple.
wow..such a nice comment!!! We'll hopefully soon we see box 4..which was amazo
Watching this in 2015...what i would do for one of those boxes lmao
A lot of people enjoy opening packs and cant afford to drop $270+ on a box so this is the next best thing mtgHQ just ignore the troll what you do is awesome! keep it up!!
So jealous of you pulling an Elspeth!!! I need her so badly for my soldier deck but she's too expensive!! Nice vid btw

I didn't realize Modern Masters was just a reprint of Lorwyn/Shadormoor block... :D
Automatically subbed bro. :) You seem like a very nice guy too! Looking forward to seeing more videos from you.
Only show the commons. ;D
Maybe thumb through them though, with this set it's always cool to at least see them.
we we're at like 130...later that night...was awesome
thanks so much
nice box at 16:20
Thank god that my hobby store was reasonable. $178 total. Great deal in good ol' Vermont.
oh my god that MTGHeadquarters playmat. I want one.
and foil gifts ungiven. some great pulls.
loved the elspeth and sword of light and shadow pack
Got up to 80 viewers on Twitch too, was awesome
thanks soo much!
Thank you so much for making these awesome videos. I'm just getting into magic and I was wondering if you ever trade cards
Definitely just subscribed because you started talking about being 2 legit 2 quit.
When I get my first MM booster pack, I hope I get either Doubling Season, Elspeth, Kiki-Jiki, Figure of Destiny, Greater Gargadon, Kira Great Glass Spinner.
Slightly off topic, stupid question, but do you use an external microphone [and if so what brand/model?] or have video cameras gotten good enough where they can have a great quality mic built in?
yea...I put that above...all the rest will be that way
Aether Vial was an uncomon and now its rare :) that was also a surprise
do you know Dragonstorm has a second ability called Storm? "When you cast this spell, copy it for each spell cast before it this turn" cuz it seems like you don't notice it
320 likes done! Sorry i'm a little impatient, but i really like to see MM openings, since i can't get them myself at the moment.
great vids, I think you should go thruogh all the rares/foils you got at the end of each vid though
i run a token + a "+1+1" selesnya deck, doubling season is perfect
No, its played in everything that can play it, in modern (almost atleast). the fact that you can draw an extra card a turn for only 2 mana, while still having a fairly decent creature on the board is completely absurd, and somtimes you dont even have to pay life for him, as he ends up hitting lands, or one mana spells, and even if you hit two 4-drops its still worth it. Search for Yuya watanabe and Shouta Yasooke (might have misspelled that) to see it in play.
bought one pack, pulled elspeth, felt great. However, I was slightly jealous of the guy after me who pulled a foil goyf.
I enjoyed a lot your video, I wish i could buy a box but online retailers prices are ridiculus and in my country just a couple stores got a few boxes wich are gonna be using for drafting.
I pulled a foil Vendilion Clique today!
wow, we're going to value city twice in a weekend? i feel like we live there now
@16:18, HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!
I want that Doubling Season so that when I use the Unleash ability on a Rakdos card, it would be a +*/+*
Bob is short for Dark Confidant. I believe Bob drew the art for this card (Ron)
i shit myself at elspeth when th sword cam i took off my shirt and started dancing
I really like the longer format with reading the commons (though that seems to be a minority opinion), maybe a recap at the end with the rares for those who want to skip ahead.
MTG Salvation Wiki: "Dark Confidant is so nicknamed after Bob Maher, its creator. Maher won the right to design and be immortalized in his 2004 Magic Invitational submission."
plz recap the rares and mythics as well as any notable uncommons or foils at the end of teh vids!
Are you going to give out the packs on twitch or youtube?
Sweet! Does the HQ have secret weapons? Say a cannon that's shoots goblin grenades?
my first mm pack was sword of fire & ice
I pulled a cryptic command my first mm
Glimmervoid is amazing.
that elspeth pack was like a 90 dollar pack, lucky man so lucky
Nice pulls I wish I would get good ones I've bought 2 boosters in the past and never get anything worth going crazy over like how most people on TH-cam pull crazy stuff I get the crap packs oh well that's my luck but nice pulls man and keep postin
Sick vid man also i Followed ur twitch stream so hopefully i can catch ur stream soon :)
My friend might be getting his hands on a box and we will draft the hell outta them.
I want that Sword nice box... the sword is $60 is there anything you are looking for???
My first pack on my box was a foil and a regular vendilion cliqe
So I am planing on selling my cards so I can start a channel like this one but it would be my first time do I was wondering if you could tell me how to get started and if you have any tips that would be great.
really only looking for revised duals
I have one question what exactly is a bob?
Why am I watching this 2017 I've been subbed for 3 years
I pulled an Elspeth in my box. :D
There's so many mtg channels that pronounce cards so wrong. Words that if they were just sounded out would be correct. Stop adding letters.
why does it matter? no ones perfect.
MTG cardlook
Why does it matter? The channel is about mtg, the person creating the videos should be knowledgeable about the cards.
it dosent annoy me at all
It's staggering to me the reading comprehension of youtube magic players.
Ahhh and this is why most MTG players will remain virgins forever. More than any other game players, I've found MTG players to be the most insufferable, obnoxious, arrogant and pretentious BY FAR. Not sure why that is but man I wish the community for this game wasn't so fucking toxic. Makes it REALLY hard to get into.
GREAT video, but it's like it's a bit too light (the cards are almost shining).
no, Tuesday's - Fridays
Pulled Kiki in my first mm pack!!!!
guys, deal with the length. you can click through the timer if you dont care about the commons.. this is his channel/video, not yours..
thank you
Hey man, if you want to get more traffic to your twitch, include a link in all your vids, especially the worldwake vids.
Im pumped!
300 likes, time for the next one! Im excited!!!!
i want to see that future sight box
As a person from scandinavia it sounds funny how you pronounce æ
10:03 I was like FOIL GOIF?
How do you open modern masters but not know what some of the best cards are in them =.-
sorry that he doesnt spend time trying to memorizing all the cards like you do, and btw this channel is probably the best for mtg on youtube so if all you want to say is hate then go away no one wants that.
they changed the rarities of some cards in the MM set
Question what is a bob? what card is it, it confuses me when you said is there a bob. I keep thinking what card is called bob. Please explain to me what is bob please. Thank you.
it's because I simply don't care...I don't look at prices unless I am trading.
That's very cool! Thanks for the reply :)
Not sure I needed to know about your blue plums
cool
I would skip announcing the commons, but stop if theres a good one you want to talk about. Then go thru and announce the uncommons rares and foils
asmodai2k2 Because he only cares about value, he doesnt really care about the cards themselves, since he doesnt know them. There are many good cards without high value. :(
Kim Bach yes and it actually hurts to see a box of modern masters, a set designed to be drafted, opened by a value hound, but I realize I'm probably too much of an idealist
Kim Bach The sad part too is that he actually got alot of good Modern stuff. I'd have been happy as shit with just Blood Moon, Kiki-Jiki and that foil Lava spike :(
its reprints of modern format staples to make modern more accessible to newer players. There is still some very expensive cards in the set hence its higher cost.
Will there be any sort of contest?
Awesome box but i want to suggest just showing uncommons rare and foil
I pulled a foil goofy in my first mm pack!,
elspeth and a foil sword of L&S in the same pack??????DANG
and what is bob?
on star city games its 149.99 so maybe it was 180 when he posted 1 month ago
first pack of modern masters i pulled a sword of light and shadow i feel successful
@michael minner it may sound like idle complaining but if majority of the comments are saying the same thing its something for him to consider to keep his viewers

"meloku is a good card I guess" magics power level has gotten so high I remember when that was top of the food chain. :( so sad
