Just bought this yesterday for my son. We have no idea how to play, but we are trying to learn together. He has stomped me twice with the white/green deck. I think I am not playing my deck to full potential. Cool art work!
Perhaps your grasp on the game is just not as developed/ grown as your son , im 17 and I've introduced this game to both my father and mother , my father understands the game decently , but my mother takes forever to grasp certain rules/concepts , both of them are taking far longer than me to understand, so perhaps it's an age difference leading to different understanding rates ?
Red-blue is usually a bit complicated for new players but is amazing to learn some concepts in the game that will level up your skills drastically. At the other end, Green decks are often way more simple/accessible and can stomp new players pretty easily so it’s normal 👍🏼 I hope that you will get some good matches with your son and that you’ll both have fun 😁
The best tip I have for begginers are : - Know your rules well, how the stack works and how every step works to (when can you play what) cause you could be surprised with stuff you didn’t know could/should happen like that - Play your Instants at the right moment (usually the last) and try to surprise/bluff your opponent 👍🏼 The game seems to be complicated at first but trust me, once you get the basics, it’s just pure fun. I started to play at around 10yo so it’s really accessible 👍🏼
I brought this because of you as my starter, so thanks a lot, I plan to begin a few black and red decks with vampires and stuff (I saw them from your other videos)
Thinking about getting this starter kit. I got the LOTR one last year but this might make MTG more interesting for my wife to play with me. She’s not into LOTR 😂

Otter Deck has removal that kills basically everything pre-colossification in the rabbit deck, and rabbit deck removal doesn't even hit a third of the otter deck's threats. Probably a pretty awful play experience...
Sure, you can upgrade any deck. However, you'd pretty much have to replace every card in these and would end up with something significantly different. Coming up with a competitive Standard deck from these is highly unlikely, but you can certainly take inspiration from them and use a handful of the cards to build something new.
@@MTGUnpacked Would you say this is true of every starter kit deck, or are there others that lend themselves better as a basis for an eventual competitive Standard deck?

The artworks are always amazing with mtg.

This seems very similar to the old duel decks. I bought the AC kit because I wanted cards from it for a few EDH decks
i hope they make one for Duskmourn, i love converting these into commander deck.

Good luck!
Great video, thanks for the info
Me lo compra para jugar con mis sobrinas chicas, es la temática ideal para iniciarlas en el juego. (Lo estoy esperando)

Is it possible to turn one of those decks into an standard deck ?
These decks are Standard decks already. See: magic.wizards.com/en/news/announcements/bloomburrow-starter-kit-decklists

27 lands in each deck leaves room to upgrade with any fun cards you open from packs.
Jackalopes are awesome, I’m currently raising 2 of them
they aren't real...

This has Thieving Otter and Colossification, among others, how would this be standard legal?!
You missed they reprinted both in Bloomburrow? Standard-legal, per Scryfall🤷♂️
magic.wizards.com/en/news/announcements/bloomburrow-starter-kit-decklists
this release makes them standard legal
