If you are speaking about Unfinity Draft boxes, I have 2 more on hand. I also have 3 collector boxes. If you are referring to general box openings with analysis, I've got about 100 videos on TH-cam and I plan to open 3 boxes a week for the foreseeable future.
blood crypt is my chase shock. i got a galaxy foil godless shrine from my collector box and a non foil sacred foundry from my normal box. as box toppers i got overgrown tomb and watery grave
@@MTGBoxAnalysis ohh actually just looked at the video again, its the big white spot in the center right? What the heck would cause that? Makes me wonder how common that is and if its something a misprint collector would be interested in
@@jubul666 feels like a double inking or a missed layer. I'm out of town right now, but I get home tonight and will be looking it over early next week.
I've opened three Unfinity Draft boxes. Two contained 2x shock lands plus the box topper. One contained 1x shock land plus the box topper. Most interesting was that in those 108 packs I was only one sticker short of TWO full 48-card sticker sets. The distribution of those was uncommonly good. The hardest pulls for me were the showcase cards. Still missing a bunch of those.
My second set was full minus #44. Went to my LGS and they had like four extras. Also, my hits on Showcase rares and mythics were atrocious. I was missing maybe 1 or 2 rare/mythic from the artifacts, lands, and five colors. I was missing about 20 from the Showcase cards, and I like them the most I think.
Looking forward to buying a box of this after seeing the data. Mainly in it to use the lands myself but this just seems smart for bulking a collection.
I just opened another draft box, and will be premiering the video this Friday (1/26/2024). The market price is on. These boxes have come WAY down, so it might be a good time to pick them up.
What a great time for your channel to be recommend by the almighty algorithm! Love everything I've seen from this channel so far and will definitely come here before buying any boxes.
As I said on your other video, I pulled two foil and one non foil from my draft box. Foil godless shrine and hallowed fountain, two of the most valuable foil shocks. Was really happy. I might get another box around Christmas for more full art lands and to test the shocks again.
I know there is value in these boxes at the current prices. I have a couple concerns though. 1. I think the Shock values will go back down soon. 2. I would be getting all of these cards that I can't play. I know there are some I can, but besides "Saw in Half", I don't know if there are really any other cards that I want to put in decks.
As boxes are cracked prices of shocks will likely drop some but will slowly rise after as long as they seen as useful. Keep in mind, the print run for this set will be far less than a standard set.
Congrats on 1K can you really get more then one fetch land in the draft boxes? I thought it was only in collector's boxes you might be able to find more then one?
@@MTGBoxAnalysis Going by what MaRo has said, roughly one in every 24 packs should have a shock land in it. In which case, you'd have an expected value (ignoring the box topper) of 1.5 - so if you bought 2, you "should" have 3 of them (in which case, the likelihood is you'd have 1 box with 1, and 1 box with 2), just using "common sense". Being more statistical, as these should be independent tests, you can model it using a Poisson Distribution with the average rate of sucess being 1.5. Doing this you should see that roughly 22.3% of boxes have 0, 33.5% have 1, 25.1% have 2, 12.6% have 3 and 6.6% would have 4 or more. This is of course ignoring the possibility of foil shocks being in packs, which will be on top of these (so the possibilty of 0 would actually be a little smaller then 22.3%, due to that).
I think the draft boxes are a more consistent return on your value, but the Collector boxes are the only places to pull the Galaxy foil shocks. Those continue to rise in value then the gamble of a collector box. Might be worth it.
This product feels like Inn : Double Feature. It's a neat product, but nobody really wants to buy a box of cards that you can barely play with (IE Commander modern etc)
Thanks for the comment OG-M. Playability wise, I think more Unfinity has already been drafted and played with than DF. Only because DF was a premium product really targeting the collector market, despite being sold in "draft" packs.
I hope you have a lot more of these. It's great to see the detailed analysis at the end. Would be great to see many boxes of the same set compared..

I've also got a playlist of comparative analysis videos, but there's only 25 of those, as it takes at least 3 boxes to create one of those videos

Blood Crypt is back on my chase list again. The one from this box has a print error.
@@MTGBoxAnalysis thats both sad and cool at the same time actually. Is it just a print line or something?

Thank you for sharing your data with us. Which sticker sheet was missing #1? I didn't get that till my third box.

If you like my videos from 2022 they've come a long way in the last year 😁 I picked up some editing skills and some software along the journey

I wonder if anyone has pulled a non-foil shock and a foil shock in the same pack? It should be possible.
@@MTGBoxAnalysis That would be god roll!! Maybe next time
Gonna be doing a Booster Draft with Unfinity with the boys soon, So hype to meme all over the table with my homies.
Good luck RealCDMaker.
My topper was steam vents and pulled 2 non foil shocks from 1 box a cosplay and foil comet stellar pup was a great box!
Congrats Jaisen. That sounds like an amazing box.

If you said I could only buy 1 box I would choose these over a draft box of Dominaria United, Baldur's Gate, Streets or Kamigawa.
I agree. It is worth it even just for the shocks.
Shocks have never seen a full art treatment before and it’s not likely that we’ll get another sci-fi outer space cycle of shocks again.
@@friendo6257 I don't think we'll see something like this again for at least 3 years.
Im here for thouse basic lands, they are cool AF!!!!
A full set of all 30 lands (10 reg, 10 foil, 10 galaxy), plus all 30 of the shocks is a goal for me.
I love unfinity probably my top 5 favorite sets they have ever made the art work is so unique
Wow, I have not heard that before. Most people hated Unfinity. I applaud them for trying new things and having some fun with MTG.
Yeah. I've seen two non-foil shocklands in a box. It was wild.
Hopefully you saw it again today
Fyi, star city games is selling draft booster boxes for $85 today
My draft box with the topper had 3. Steam vent and 2 stomping grounds.
Congratulations
@@MTGBoxAnalysis Thank's it makes me want to try another box lol
@@jamiehampson7685 if your other box is from the same case be careful, you could end up with a zero box.
I would love to see someone alter the art of that employee of the month token to Rudy Rhod from 5th element.
My animation and drawing skills stop at charts and graphs
Is that blood crypt an error card?
I don't think so. What looked off about it?
@@MTGBoxAnalysis the white above the word mountain. Maybe its just the camra
I just took another look and you might be right sir. That very well could be a print error in the center bottom of the art frame.
Did anyone catch the misprint on the blood crypt?
Yeah it's got a blob of white. I still haven't done anything with it other than protect it. I'll post a better picture of my community on TH-cam
New image posted to my community page
That Blood Crypt is a misprint! That white "kiss", as we say in the industry, shouldn't be there
I see that now. Anybody having me guesses as to the multiplying factor of the misprint?
Congrats on 1K can you really get more then one fetch land in the draft boxes? I thought it was only in collector's boxes you might be able to find more then one?
Yes, it is possible. Seems like a lot have pulled it. I'll be doing at least 2 more draft boxes next month. We'll see how frequently this occurs.

@@scottv1600 very cool analysis Scott.
I got two non-foil shocks in my one draft box. I got a Breeding Pool and a Godless Shrine.
Nice. Congratulations, always nice to see 3 cards paying for the whole box.
So this begs the question:
Draft booster box > Collectors booster box ?
I think the draft boxes are a more consistent return on your value, but the Collector boxes are the only places to pull the Galaxy foil shocks. Those continue to rise in value then the gamble of a collector box. Might be worth it.

These are still super cheap.
Yeah, the space basics have cooled off a bit due to other really nice land prints. The shock lands are holding strong.
