Join me as I open six mysterious Magic: The Gathering card packs courtesy of Mystery Magic Crates! MMC offers a variety of monthly-subscription-focused MTG boxes that feature genuine sealed card packs. For this video, they've sent me their Premium Monthly Mystery 6-Pack, which includes six card packs randomly selected from a huge list of sets spanning the past 25+ years of Magic. What sets will we get? Will we pull any good cards? Does MMC's Premium Monthly Mystery 6-Pack offer good value? Watch to find out!
ASMR triggers include up-close, ear-to-ear whispering, mild mouth sounds, tapping, crinkling, and shuffling sounds. I recommend listening with headphones for the best experience!

WHAT IS ASMR?
---------------------------------------------------
My videos are designed to trigger a relaxing feeling called ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response). ASMR is a particular sensation that some people experience when they hear quiet sounds like whispering and soft speaking or watch certain actions like slow hand motions. ASMR is often described as a pleasant tingling on the head and neck, accompanied by a feeling of deep calm and mild euphoria. Many people watch ASMR videos to relax and manage anxiety, stress, or insomnia. To learn more about ASMR, check out asmruniversity.com/about-asmr....

Love how you take your time with these. Too many channels are in such a rush.

Yay I needed this! Feeling extremely depressed and I know this’ll help me peacefully fall asleep, thank you so much.

Stay safe brother. If you want to find some more gents looking out for one another, check out Steve Wallis camping channel. He is a kind, funny Canadian bloke who enjoys stealth camping and taking us on his journey. I've found it to be very therapeutic.

Aaaaaah! The whispering in this video gives me CRAZY tingles. I don't usually get tingles mostly just get tired and fall asleep.

Yoo glad u got sponsors so u can keep uploading. Truly a underrated youtube channel

[@theASMRnerd]

I really appreciate the support, thank you!!

[@TheBeatlesToday]

I always love watching your MTG unboxings; I know almost nothing about MTG, so I feel like I’m relaxing AND learning!

[@CollieDaze]

Great stuff as always, would love to see this become a regular series!!

[@baileybayer9462]

It has admittedly been a few years since I've tuned in but I've been thinking of you since I created yet another Skyrim character. BOY was I delighted to hear the mic quality that I did upon the first words. What an upgrade!!! Great to be back. Thanks for the great magic content - A fellow magic nerd

[@_washi]

Thanks for organising another big MTG vid Nick. Really enjoy this new format, more please!

[@ethanmixon5]

I love that you read the card text, only one out there that does! I use these to sleep but i still like to know which card does 😂

[@theASMRnerd]

For sure! It makes these videos super long, but I think it makes for better ASMR :)

[@SukoVisionASMR]

Room Tour, thanks

[@theASMRnerd]

Been meaning to do a setup tour since I got the new PC and all that, but the room is a mess and I really wanna spend some more time on it before I do a video xD

That mustache is everything ❤😎

[@theASMRnerd]

Yooo thanks haha

[@Bcrizzle531]

I loved learning how to play with buddies at work ,this is way much calmer and relaxing obviously. Thank you for the video.

[@theASMRnerd]

Nice, hope you've been having fun playing!

[@SNRejected]

Hey Nick, the 2015 Modern Masters packaging was a one time thing. It was mostly due to the fact that those packs ended up being very easy to search and reseal.

[@theASMRnerd]

Ahh yeah, that makes sense! I could see it being much easier to open and then reseal without it being obvious. It's too bad they never figured out a better way to do it, because I love that it's easily recyclable. Anyway, thanks for the info!

[@youarenotmadenough655]

The smell of new cards is addictive

[@theASMRnerd]

Agreed haha, I love that inky smell!

[@spicychinchin6597]

Started getting into Magic the last few months playing with coworkers and am always astonished how many people play Magic, such a fun game and community, and man, the history, do they have any filters for format legality ? Loved this video and am gonna go back and watch any others, thank you for showing and reading all the cards, definitely gonna check out these guys as well.

[@MysteryMTG]

We loved the video! Who knew the Masters 2015 box made such great noises when tapped? haha

[@theASMRnerd]

Hey thanks, glad you guys liked the video, and thanks again for sending the packs over! I think you're offering really solid value with these boxes. And yeah, I wish Wizards had packaged more sets in cardboard like Masters 2015 haha, if only for the sounds!

[@zera2314]

This video came through on autoplay from another ASMR creator, and all I can say before I pass out here is that you have a superb whisper. Instant tingles and made me ultra sleepy, haha. Good work!

[@dvdsiefker]

Excellent unboxing ASMR video. Nostalgic

[@Uploaded1995]

I've said it before and wanna say it again, your original MtG pack openings (and then the Skyrim Wanders) are what got me into your channel, so this hits that nostalgic beat and it's still just as entertaining and relaxing! Happy to see it back!

[@theASMRnerd]

I really appreciate that, thanks! Hopefully, these MTG mystery pack openings will become a regular thing on the channel :D

[@johny9693]

The symbol on the dominaria card is colorless mana. If I'm not mistaken, dominaria boosters offered a rare and an historic card (they could be rare too).

[@KnightlyASMR]

Loved the vid! Been playing a log of MTG recently, so I found this quite interesting!

[@theASMRnerd]

Cool! I keep thinking I should give MTG Arena another shot.

[@KnightlyASMR]

@@theASMRnerd If you do let me know! I'd love to play a few rounds.

This was a great video. I'd watch more if you did it again, and TBH I'd be more likely to buy from MMC if I saw more openings to get a better idea of what you can get.

@@theASMRnerd No problem, folks on this platform don't always get much say in who sponsors them so when you see them find some legitimate ones it's important to be supportive.

[@jssandler]

An original Shivan Dragon from the early editions can be worth a bit if in excellent condition.

[@theASMRnerd]

I don't remember what edition my Shivan Dragon was from, but probably not that early. Maybe somewhere between 7th and 10th edition? So probably not that valuable. Still, I should really go through my old cards one day, there might be a few worth something in there!

[@deeroberts8090]

Add a little more passive stimuli. Maybe line up the cards and go over combat damage of a hypothetical battle (ex. This one would deal 3, but this one has two, so it falls. But this one....) Liked it overall!

[@iburneasy7379]

Nicks beard looks dyed darker but I love it still

[@theASMRnerd]

Yeah, I noticed that when editing the video! It's not dyed, it's actually just the shadows from my mics due to the way I have them positioned in this video. Lighting is always a struggle!

I must admit, I'm only just starting to get back into the hobby after many years away, so my play skills are a bit rusty and I doubt I'd pose much of a challenge haha. But MTG Arena is probably a good place to start, I'll check it out and maybe once I've got my sea legs back we can play some games!

MTG mystery crates?! :O

[@theASMRnerd]

Yussss

[@wafflehaxxx]

You were incredibly unlucky with those pulls considering the packs you got. The booster packs you got were super high value, if each box gives a similar distribution of boosters (like multiple masters sets) then it would definitely be tempting. I'm just worried that other boxes would have a much worse pack distribution.

[@wiredspider]

Never buy lose packs. They can be box mapped and almost always have nothing.

[@wafflehaxxx]

@@wiredspider They don't even need something as complex as mapping, it's even easier than that. Especially sets with masterpieces or high end rares, if you open a masterpiece in a set, just sell the rest of the packs since they are virtually guaranteed to not have anything of interest. Crack 2 packs of a masters display and get a foil mythic? No point in cracking more. Sell the rest. That said, didn't want to be too critical on a youtube video with a sponsor so wanted to "low key" caution people without outright calling it a scam.

Play commander, it's sick

[@theASMRnerd]

It seems like a super cool mode, and I have friends that used to play it a lot, but I just never got into it. Any idea if MTG Arena has a Commander mode?

[@nuggetstheunicorn1592]

@@theASMRnerd unfortunately no commander on mtg arena as of yet. there is a format called brawl on arena that is similar, using one legendary creature or planeswalker as your commander with a 60 card singleton deck (meaning you can only run one copy of a card in the deck). The only caveat with that format is that all the cards have to be standard legal, so they'll all have been from the most recent sets, and there isn't any multiplayer gameplay, just 1v1. There's also historic brawl but that's a whole thing with its own weird legality rules to read up on and this comment is already long enough as it is. Magic good game tho play magic

[@ezera7809]

You should play starcraft

[@Vadrian7]

Hmm. Birdsong and Vampire Aristocrat do not go together. Well, maybe they do. I could see a vampire maybe keeping birds as pets. When they start to sing, he knows it's time for bed. Or maybe a vampire that sits in his dark room all night watching youtube videos of birds and birds singing. Hmm--sounds like I have a story to write. And I see this vampire likes to sacrifice a creature. I hope it's not the birds. Yeah--I definitely have a story here. Ok. Anyway. I thought it was interesting the birds came out to warn you about the vampire in your hand. Take care.

Man don't open packs with scissors! Just pull the back tab like it's a chocolate bar.

I open them with scissors in these videos because it's a bit quieter :). Those crinkly plastic packs can be suuuper loud when opened the normal way! I promise that I'm very careful not to cut any cards haha
