That’s weird, the box topper came in the booster pack

[@discard-dead]

Huh? There were no box toppers at this time. The card was from a subset called expeditions. The expeditions cards were seeded about 1 card in every 4-6 boxes or something.

[@coolguyxoxo]

One of these days i expect to see a video title labeled "Alpha investments holds patrons nutsack at gunpoint to convince them to purchase a box of his resealed product"

[@sirfishslayer5100]

Rudy already did that video. It seemed he enjoyed the nut sack holding just a tad too much. It went on way too long.....awkward....

[@EEEdoman]

Part the Waterveil didn't go up due to speculation, it actually was part of a standard deck that momentarily put up really good results. I remember that deck - both that one and Crush of Tentacles.

[@Miller1107]

I only started playing Magic in Kaladesh. Aether Revolt was my first release I actually got to experience and bought a booster box, landing my first lottery card, Defense Grid. Wasn't the greatest but oh damn was I shaky and excited. Then sold it to buy another box xD

[@Skold07]

Whew thats a big hit. $215!!

[@maxime669]

I've just check on ebay verdant catacombs start at 315 (canadian) the price change so much from plateform to another but yeah such great card. The guy will be happy for sure 😊.

It's "only" around 150€ (170$) in Europe (mkm price)

BFZ was the first MTG pack I ever bought. Got a lottery card in it. Didn't know it till years later. Good memory.

[@reverie5760]

couple of years back for my birthday I got one of these boxes. got the expeditions smoldering marsh and an ulamog. and also some other cards worth a few bucks. still tho, my excitement was through the roof

[@erikanderson8512]

I usually eat lunch at about 1:30 at my desk and watch a rudy video. A lot of the time I drift off for a short nap while rudy drones on and on (despite some of it being useful information) but my favorite part is being startled awake by the sound of rudy exclaiming "holy testicle tuesday"

[@nobodyalchemy1308]

I cheer with you sir

[@Thunder_Mlee]

Rudy where did you get that playmat from? I really want to get one

[@Billy-bd2oe]

That is insane, I never saw it coming, what is it 1 in 6 boxes or something and you got one of the top 3 cards? F! Congratz, love to Rudy!

[@mtgpackaddict3757]

I pulled a foil Karn on my channel yesterday and had an equally crazy reaction. Super fun pull, Rudy!

[@xymoriintus]

Holy shit dude very nice!

[@MtendoTheSkunk]

Not only was it a lottery card but it was 1 of the best ones too! Congratulations!

[@coolfingers]

I hate rewatching Rudy's videos when I'm drunk... because I get excited all over again!!! What are you doing to meeeeeee!!

[@1983electric]

The Verdant Catacombs was the only one I pulled, but I only bought 4 fat packs of BFZ

[@kulinfro830]

that expedition almost gave me a brutal expulsion!

[@Crisper333]

Oh the memories of BFZ, good times. That's the block I started playing Magic in. My friend who got me into playing was pissed when I opened a Wooded Foothills Expedition the second time I ever bought cards, lol. He never pulled one and I made sure to rub it in when I went on to open a Flooded Strand Exp., and a Mox Opal Invention. 😂😂😂

[@cortesej2]

i like when he reads the words wrong, did it twice on Conduit of Ruin

[@marcmarc1967]

There were 10 rares lands in Battle for Zendikar. The 5 land cylce of "Slow Lands", 2 of the "Man Lands" which were completed in the next set, and 3 other lands.

[@meatrace]

Hey Rudy. Question for you:What is your opinion on investing in Origins through Eldritch Moon, banking on a new non-rotating format starting with one of those sets?

[@yugiohpokemon5285]

Rudy do you give store credit for bulk.alpha rares?

[@The.Original.Potatocakes]

Rudy, I collect future sight Steamflogger Boss. I have over 300 of them. Do you have any for sale in bulk?

[@sorenjohnson4435]

I remember when this set came out and I got a foil Gideon and I held onto it thinking it would go up in price

That soothing voice in the intro doe

[@insertphrasehere15]

I opened ONE pack from BFZ. It was a tournament prize that I was given for playing in a pre-release for a mate of mine (he bought the packs for my pre-release that I was playing with). Inside the prize pack was an expedition Verdant Catacombs...

[@beabookworm]

Perfect timing, I’m just going on my lunch break. =)

[@amordelrey]

Ditto

[@konope9041]

Smothering Abomination and From Beyond combo was awesome though.

[@yugiohpokemon5285]

Best time to buy mid rand and high end reserved list cards are first and fourth quarter of every year since ever summer and fall everything tends to be 25 to 40 percent higher. We are seeing lows. Also Rudy yes I am the one buying all Ali from Cairo under 200 maybe 220 if almost pack fresh. Is my theory and decision correct?

[@jv8232]

this new alutimate masters set is pretty dope boys

There's 2 sets of rare land cycles in this btw Rudy. The man lands and the battle lands.

[@not-a-theist8251]

That's actually not correct. The mainland cycle was partly in oaths as well

[@WhatsTheDifferenceTV]

I enjoyed this video thoroughly because my name is also Jason

[@Kill3rKBee]

I first got into MTG with Battle but didnt play for ling because none of my friends played, but I still consider it my first set and I love it. I got back into though when a game store opened up near me about a year and a half ago and my friends started play because of it. Now only one game store near me has BFZ packs and whenever i got to it i always crack one for nostalgia. Being so new to it I didnt know what lottery cards were. One time i go and my friend matt starts yelling at me to not crack a pack because they are worthless but i ignored him and cracked it anyways. In it there was a Expedition Stomping Ground. Now I knew what shocks were but it was so weird i was really confused. I showed it to the store owner and he just gives me a 'nice' and stay nonchalant about it. It wasnt till i looked it up did I realize i was holding a 70 dollar card with my grimey hands. My friend matt starts to freak out as do I. I ended up selling it cause i was poor (still am but not as bad) and i wanted to make a properly good standard deck. I wish i hadnt sold but ill never forget the experience

[@appleipodtouch2g]

I got LUCKY with this set back in the day. Opened no more than 20 packs and pulled two ulamogs and a foil gideon

[@Black7apex23]

So, it seems the packs containing foil cards make that foil card the extra card which means they have 1 more card than regular packs. In theory, is it possible that people open boxes, weigh the packs for the heavier ones and try open only those and then sell the other packs knowing there would be no lottery cards in those??

[@TheBigIntellectual]

Do you film these and if its garbage not upload?

[@leverposteifantomet]

I opened a box of this around December and got 6 mythics and a Stomping Grounds. The only mythic worth anything was Ulamog though.

[@abalow7]

These cards had some of the coolest borders

[@wisdomsoptional6357]

I got a scalding tarn from my box. I literally couldn’t speak when I pulled it.
