Buy Singles

[@TolarianCommunityCollege]

From Shuffle Up & Play 67 with Rachel Weeks, Serge, and Rebell! Watch the full Commander gameplay here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6SWeqV_fKZ3mtE

[@danlong3050]

oh, you should have strung all the failed opens from this episode, and put "buy singles" after all 8? What an "ouch" for booster openings!

[@WangerZ3291]

Long-forgotten indeed. Didn't even know that card existed. At least it's a flavor win in this oddly specific case.

[@Montyandrew45]

I knew. I opened one when Champions of Kamigawa first came out.....

[@WangerZ3291]

@Montyandrew45 I am so sorry to hear that...

[@Montyandrew45]

@@WangerZ3291 it's okay. I got a few good cards from that set. A couple of the dragons lol

[@spaggoot]

I love using this card in my arcane spirits deck, its very neat

[@Tragic_Idiot]

I am amazed that despite how many packs of MM15 I cracked, I never cracked the long forgotten. I didn't even know it was possible...

[@faefeatherweight]

The way prof breaks mid-sentence lmao, love how he starts saying it just out of habit, fully behind the messaging - but then, the connexion between his own words that he's repeating, and how hard he demonstrated why he says it just hits him like a ton of brick. Beautiful.

[@dkrdTV]

This episode proves the professor's campaign to buy singles to be the right move. Those pulls were butts lol

Proxy > Buying Singles

[@emilysmith2965]

Triumph of the Hordes was pretty good. But still cost less than a sealed pack of Rise of the Eldrazi.

[@austinwilburn1772]

Orcish Spy was the mvip of the game.

[@TolarianCommunityCollege]

Rebell knew what she was doing! Haha

[@xlordeverlife9566]

"Its another episode of... 'Should I open it.. Or should I keep it sealed?'"

[@Arisorio]

Do as i say, not as i do!

[@TolarianCommunityCollege]

Always!

[@Wiseguy150]

Alright Prof, you got me. I don't normally watch Shuffle up and Play but you can thank Rachel Weeks for her timely delivery of your own line against you for getting me to watch the long form version.

[@danlong3050]

It's worth it, and not the only time she says it!

[@Vario69]

Asking to pay 30 dollars for a BOOSTER is criminal. I don't care what edition it is, it should be illegal. I'm gonna print these cards myself..

[@Morphling92]

Yep. If they just continuously refuse to reprint cards and keep the game affordable, printer will go brrrr

[@TolarianCommunityCollege]

I totally agree! BUT I wanted my guests to have fun on this episode.

[@Morphling92]

@@TolarianCommunityCollege completely understand. And I’m sure you accomplished it with aplomb. I’ll finish the full episode while hiding from holiday duties I’m sure. 😄

[@Vario69]

@@TolarianCommunityCollege oh you're the most justified to buy these, Mr. Professor, you make a killer entertainment out of it!

[@aliens858]

I mean that specific booster is 9 years old. It costed less when it was bought from wizards.

[@ikki_jabul4456]

Just had to do this two games in a row the other day. Second one was during the side game under the table

[@vinniegorman8321]

That 'buy singles' comment was golden!

[@william82bananas]

Happy holidays 🎄 to you and yours, Prof!!

[@illusioncity]

I love this idea, I hadn’t even finished the episode when I was already making plans with my pod to try it

[@AJSantiesteban]

What a great card! Staple in my green spirits deck

[@DorkmasterFlek]

This might be the best clip of SU&P.

[@_mrcrypt]

Buy… Singles… seems like I’ve heard that somewhere before 🤷‍♂️

[@sh41]

The gohei was actually good in Kamigawa spirits, but putting it in modern masters was absurdity

[@lordflashheart3741]

Yeah, it was not bad for it's time. Not tier 1 or anything, but fine. But reprinting it for a modern-set was asinine.

[@sh41]

@lordflashheart3741 I played it a lot, but always casual kitchen table decks indeed. Definitely not modern worth

[@skootchk1253]

@@lordflashheart3741Was it ever actually playable in modern?

[@lordflashheart3741]

@@skootchk1253 Gohei? Lol, no. It saw play in Kamigawa block constructed and fringe play in standard, but nowhere else. It was made redundant long before Modern was even invented, which is why it's inclusion in a modern-set is laughable.

[@13shivan]

There is something beautiful when watching others burn their money away for our entertainment😅. Thank you prof and merry Christmas

[@carlospolk5033]

Just watched this earlier. This added mechanic is awesome and fun... so long as the packs don't suck City of Ass lol

[@evilded2]

This is a great episode. Rebell has such cool decks

[@nicolasrodriguezbadala1024]

I do know Long-forgotten Gohei since I have it in my arcane/spirits deck 😊

[@melephs_cap]

Long-forgotten Gohei? Wow! I forgot about that card for so long! (Seriously though I got that in a booster pack once and it never left the box I put it in)

[@IHaveWaffles]

Honestly it's so much cheaper to buy singles. The chance you get a really expensive card from an old booster is low it's similar to your chances of winning the lottery.

[@davidjaramillo5301]

hahaha I love Rachel! she is so excited! and I would be too hahahhaha

[@Mightymajin]

While there is a specific feeling when it comes to opening packs and even more when you find the specific card you're looking for, it's better to just buy singles for particular cards

[@RENEG4DE4NGEL]

MY FRIEND AFTER SPENDING $600 ON BOOSTER PACKS: I finally got The One Ring! ME AFTER SPENDING $90 ONLINE: I got one too! Just swap cracking packs for opening the mail!

[@Lhurgyof]

The first (and last) time I bought a Modern Masters 15 pack it had no rare at all.

[@CSK_T.]

oookay! was keeping the episode for this weekend, but now i want to see the mayhem. brb ^^

[@nickjoseph77]

This is so cool!

[@that1jamo]

I hope prof opened the rest of the boosters after the recording.

[@danlong3050]

He opened one after, in the chair. Also a stinker!

[@that1jamo]

I seen that one. What about the others? Maybe an opening video of the rest before the end of the year?🤔

[@shadowsonicsilver6]

Is that Lanipatar?

[@GhostlyFilm]

This is awesome

[@Burevix]

You dare use my own spell against me!?

[@Matrim42]

If I only bought singles I wouldn’t have my foil Doubling Season I just pulled.

[@blackbloodmaster13]

Can’t believe they didn’t use Opening Ceremony (something along those lines it’s in unfinity) where you open a pack, get a wubrg of mana and can play all the cards you pulled that turn lmao

[@danlong3050]

It wouldn't have matter. All the boosters sucked. One of the players took a land!

[@seanhardner5842]

Booster Tutor worth more than Prof’s rare😢

[@frankmachado4142]

What even are arcane spells??

[@jacobd1984]

🤓 Um actually, you always have a spell in the Command Zone (unless you've already cast it). Creatures are spells after all.

Nice idea to mix up a commander game

Yep I just opened whole christmas tree booster box aaaaand pretty shitty

BUY CASES

[@anthonywolf943]

great card that wont sell for 2 bucks

[@OriginalDrGonzo]

Buying singles is advice that everyone in card games ever is aware of. It's advice for those that know they are pretty unlikely to pull a card they need from a random pack. It's advice for those who might struggle to wipe their own asses.

[@HiddenFromTheSun1]

print A4 proxies the same thing...

[@bellesalobo]

BUY SINGLES...😅

[@yoshikagekira2245]

Nu-uh screw singles i might be single...but not my cards

[@Klunkyman]

Oh no! (Oh no) you should have kept it sealed! (Why do you do this to yourself?)

[@danlong3050]

Go watch the episode. It's worse than this.

[@Nex41354]

Actually, why buy singles? Why are the packs that expensive if everyone knows your odds arent good? Literally, what gives? Why are people ok with agreeing to pay that much for a single pack of gambling sensation? Seems nutty to me..

[@AlexofZippo]

Firstly, because the rush of opening a pack. Second, the packs are priced based on scarcity and potential pulls. You can *potentially* pull eldrazi titans out of those packs. So, that’s factored in. Set’s also nearly a decade old, packs are becoming more and more scarce.

[@zsmith8632]

The card I want is the card I want, but the pack could be anything, even the card I want!

[@faereman]

Didn't you meant to say "Why buy packs"? That'd be more logical with the rest of your comment :p But nitpicking aside, I fully agree. I stopped buying booster packs over a decade ago for that exact reason.

[@corsel6911]

I think this moment has gone over your head. Bring back r/woosh.

Must be nice...

I bought a single and now shes filing for divorce

Why are they allowed to play non legends in command zone? Theyre just doing whatever the fuck they want?
