[@tcgvaultltd4584]

Seriously what kind or creature would hit a thumbs down on a Rudy video

[@Hinaguy749]

Recent follower but I love your channel. Watching this video reminded me that I had been wanting to buy a box of Battlebond for a while but kept putting it off. Then when you got to talking about the price jumping up I decided to buy one before it went any further. I'm not really interested in investing in sealed product so I opened it and had a blast. But about a third of the way into it I almost had a heart attack when I got a foil True-Name Nemesis! Thank you so much for this video! I plan on selling the TNN on ebay and putting the money towards a box of whatever next set that really catches my fancy in this game I love so much. Keep making great content and doing what you love.

[@Rorschachqp]

Yup, I knew that. I’ve pulled the double partner foil rares and the double partner foil mythics. I think it’s possible to pull 4 mythics in one pack if you get foil partners and the regular partners. The previous record was original Innistrad where you could get a foil mythic plus flip Garruk mythic plus regular mythic, for a total of three mythics in a pack...with the possibility of all three being planeswalkers (Garruk, Lili and foil Lili). In BB, you can get the Kenrith twins in both normal and foil in same pack.

[@HobbitCrom]

Man I watch your videos everyday, I look forward to them every time! I would love to see you do some live streams of mass box openings or something. Would be a really fun and cool way for a non-patreon like myself to support the channel.

[@flbthptheintroverted5913]

I remember the second battle bond pack I ever opened was a foil doubling season, good times.....

[@madb00tleg]

I pulled a foil Toothy and Pir and felt the same way you did. It was a very nice tough. Love me some BB

[@BryantonWinchin]

I have come to love battlebond. My local GameStop sell 6-packs of this set for $25. I brought two and made my money back with a single card.

[@IsaacTreat]

I opened a pack a couple days ago with a foil doubling season and a land tax. Talk about a good ROI.

[@wisconsincheez2307]

I loved this set. While it was normal price no matter how many packs I opened I always seemed to get my money back at least after it all was opened.

[@MidgarMerc]

"It's amazing that this limited run set with exclusive highly sought after cards has so many good value rares in it." I know Rudy not everything can be a HOME RUN like Journey into Nyx

@@gamingisinthesoul not really. Wizards allows this to happen to hype up the new set. The only thing they don't want are leaks and the sale of singles before a set is released

[@TakaTakaMuTaka]

Sam Matthias, I have a feeling many of the channels opening boxes early are not doing it because WOTC allows it. They’re doing it to get the views and despite WOTC.

[@Westonr89608]

I bought 4 and a half boxes of BBD back when they were around $100/box. Loved that set! The half box was a box I split with a buddy... He pulled a foil True Name from his half. I pulled foil twins though, so I wasn't too upset :)

I have zero regrets about getting in on the ground level with this set. Especially as an edh player, the value wasn't to be ignored.

[@Huardo]

I really wish Rudy would put these through the player app at the end to show us the value of the haul, doesn't even have to be the commons, just the good cards. I'd love that!
