[@DonovanPresents]

I cant believe I guessed the right amount of boxes at the very beginning! 😮😂

[@ExTrEmEStOrW]

question you open 5 boxs and what would you say the mythic ratio in the set are, usely i get 3-4 mythic per box but on this set i got 12 and i wanna know if its normal, i can always name the mythic i got from my set boosters to verify 12 mythic

[@andrewherder7386]

We can begin to use the data from this video to find the maximum number of pack wrappers the Professor can fit inside of his suit.

[@JaySay]

I'll place a bet on 500, over or under of 25.

[@goldlink567]

Why fit them inside his suit. Why not make them into a suit?

[@dragonknite314]

I come for the booster box game but wind up zoning out and chilling to the music

[@sarz24241]

Same, to the point I looked up the song/artist and he only has one named??

[@professormanhattan7254]

Me and three friends all opened a box of MOM, and the combined value of all of the boxes was under the price of one box. We got screwed lmao

[@nickmelkata3950]

It’s beginning to look like that’s average. We got less than $30 in value in two boxes as well, and the folks at our lgs said people have been pretty unhappy so far. Seems there are some good cards in the set, but at much lower frequency than in the past.

[@dragondeathgod1]

I got like 50 from 2 boxes combined

[@thoop6795]

Had friends buy 3 boxes and draft them, all 3 made profit.

[@joamfeliciano3653]

I think it's partly the effect of the 3 year rotation change. The meta can't be shakenup as much without the rotation,

[@AstraSelenia]

I like how the price of Invasion of Ikoria literally went down from $11.20 at 11:33 to $10.14 at 17:02 😂

[@besjfo8292]

It depends of the price of the market when he opens and sell the cards

[@Always_LaggginTTV]

Took long enough to edit this for the prices to change lmaooo

[@Shuktongable]

@@Always_LaggginTTV ya lol its 18$ now lmao

[@boroswalker7923]

Prof: "Don't worry the light is fine." Me: "I'm more worried about the condition of the book."

[@joshtimian3501]

That was some of the most fun I have ever had watching an open video.

[@zat132]

Got my Academic 133+ XL Box and my god you did so well with it. Keep up the great content and hope to see more stuff like this deck box soon

[@Civera89]

Now do the many other people waiting for any sort of news. The Kickstarter comment section is a sh*tshow.

[@JediMasterRevenantMADNESS]

It feels like a kick in the winter orbs watching Prof pull Urabrask twice when that's the only card you REALLY wanted most from the set lol.

[@underscore_5450]

I'm a really huge fan of the reprint slot in this set. Makes me miss cracking commander legends.

[@Aerensianic]

What a great 1st box! Love the regular Elesh Norn.

[@davidhowell1415]

I honestly prefer the base non foil version of cards now, they actually seem to be rarer than the fancy versions

[@felipeosuna1058]

​​@@davidhowell1415 thanks to Collector Boosters 😂, i'm still amazed that non-foil Versions are pricier than foils un current sets.

[@Aerensianic]

@@davidhowell1415 I think outside of the serialized art of the praetors I would agree. Hell I actually prefer the Elesh Norn regular art to all other variations that aren't serialized. I don't care for the black and white style.

[@really1337]

I get people complain about everything, but the $2 threshold is generous in my view. The margins for cards are so slim that many commercial card sellers avoid buying singles to resell at such a low value. Many prefer to move in bulk to cut down on costs and improve returns. I like the $2 rule.

[@raddestoflads7771]

I’m a little mad they started putting the rares and uncommons at the front. Takes away from the suspense

[@jinxsiemcdeath6250]

That's Japan printed product - set boosters in this set. MotM draft boosters and collector boosters are US or Belgium printed aka the good stuff in the back.

[@underscore_5450]

Yeah, what that other guy said. All the boosters I've opened so far have had the rares and foil in the back, not the front.

[@Someguyy867]

I like it, I skip through the commons or give a quick gander at the commons. But really they’re usually not all that impressive.

[@leonc4653]

@@jinxsiemcdeath6250 my set boosters were Belgium so it was hype getting 2 double mythic packs

[@kaiserherman7914]

Got a fat pack (terrible luck btw) here in germany and the rares etc. Are still in the back. Wild.

[@blueburnsred]

Prof I haven't watched one of these in a while so it may have happened a while ago, but I must say that the switch to lo-fi style music is so refreshing. Thank you

[@irisiris67932]

Money is tight, so I’m glad I can always get the joy of opening booster packs for free. Thanks Prof! ☺️

[@davidhowell1415]

14:46 this is the best song you play! I love it and this has been a very nice box so far 👍

[@EmoAdam0312]

I love how prof just started stuffing his suit with the wrappers at the end... hahah it was so random and seemed like it was just a normal thing while giving a speech. Love it.❤😂

[@kazko2563]

pack at 5:04 having Elesh Norn and Aurelia is nuts

[@leonc4653]

fr. this set is pretty nuts...i hit ravagan, sheolred whispering one in 1 pack + a rare, then elesh norn grand cenolite + a battle mythic. and in the other packs i then hit MOM elesh norn, and sheolred, Elspeth, wrenn.... there was 14 mythics.

[@nathanmoore3675]

I just got a pack the other day from the All Will Be One set and got Eleanor Norn, Morher of Machines and a Helm of the Hosts. Pretty sick

[@silent_statement757]

there was one with elesh norn and old sheoldred in it

[@jamesgratz4771]

These multiverse legends cards just keep tanking I love it! Picked up some great cards for cheap.

[@TheBirdGroves]

5$ ragavan when :^)

[@jamesgratz4771]

@@TheBirdGroves that’s what I’m saying. He’s overhyped as hell but I want a copy for my collection

[@helios566]

Yeah 40$ for a pre-release and I cracked Monkey.

[@Uefeti]

@@jamesgratz4771 He is an autoinclude in almost any red edh deck, thats a bit hard to call overhyped

[@malakimphoros2164]

​@@Uefeti Any red deck really in any format he's legal in

[@Flyboy245]

I am entertained. Fun as always, good to see what the prices of things are. I do like how you added the song that is playing at the bottom. I don’t think I’ve commented on such, and I know it’s been a bit since you’ve added it, but I really liked the fact that you have the top card and price pictured

[@LeonardoOliveira-858]

It's not a booster box game without "gonna make you dance, dance, da-ance." Thank you :)

[@diggerdog9205]

I watch these at 1.5 speed and its good even then

[@tralnda4176]

At 59:48, when the Faerie Mastermind Foil was pulled, the amount didn't go up. Wouldn't have mattered in the end, but each box was above or within $5 of $120. Pretty amazing set.

[@MemBirdman]

You've been using set booster boxes on, I think, about a year now. Have you considered doing a head-to-head game of a draft box vs set box? Maybe the value would be a wash, but maybe it's worth noting how much chaff is in each?

[@jarredmckendrick8231]

I just got my Kickstarter deck boxes in today and they are beautiful. The quality is fantastic and I can't wait until my next tcg binge to put them to use!!

[@ArCSelkie37]

I like watching these because they give me ideas for commander decks.

[@voltcorp]

this video has strengthened my impressions from my prerelease, where I got two goddamn yargles, that it seems to be the most common of the legends.

[@gabrielharvey956]

Sweet jesus prof has been completed hes now signing cards in phyrexian :O

[@jefferylaw1686]

This is why I call bad boxes game enders. I always love seeing this prof!

[@buttwipe108]

These are fun videos to watch while on the toilet!

[@DakotaAP]

Your first box was amazing, and mine, I feel like the Halloween Charlie brown "I got a rock" scene.

[@lousarsol9005]

I have always loved the music in these videos but this time I swear i heard a new track or two? Very nice, I dig it!

[@kilo3989]

I really like these videos. You get some chill background music, and you can look up to see what the value cards are when you hear the cha-ching!

[@melissakampers]

Absolutely in love with this channel. I played MTG between 1994 and 1999, and I found my old 'vintage' MTG collection a few months ago and got nostalgic. I really want to dip my toes into the TCG's again. I already have two LCG's but trading cards has always been something dear and near to me when I was growing up. The only thing is that I am completely overwhelmed with over 23 years of expansions and don't even know where to begin to become relevant again with my collection. Serious FOMO here. My old card collections, though worth a penny or two, seems ancient and obsolete compared to all the new powerful cards and mechanics that came after I left the scene. Commander seems like a lot of fun, but it's hard to get two other card game enthusiasts to sit down and play. I am even considering to leave MTG in the past and step into Flesh and Blood instead. Anyway, love the content.

[@Hutch_x]

Cards from 94-99 can have some serious value! If you haven’t already, I would look into that before doing anything else. 1 old card could fund an entire new collection for you!

[@helios566]

I recommend arena to dip your toes back into it and learn where ever gotten since your time and find out what you like these days. They're are plenty of prebuilt decks they offer for specific formats or you can go for it with making your own.

[@lucasrios2089]

I learned from this video that I have quite a bit of MOM value I’m sitting on so I’m probably going to head down to my LGS tomorrow and make some trades. Thanks Prof!

[@rpolito76]

Love your content. Thank you so much for the education and entertainment!

[@Ellicess]

I went to this prerelease on my bday, played Abzan with Thalia and the Gitrog Monster (one 1/4 rounds 😅) and then opened a showcase Elesh Norn in my prize pack, so it was a great day!

[@Rococo478]

Yea, definitely only opening packs if I'm drafting. Great video!

[@nellyvande8320]

needed this dose of prof today thank!!!!!

[@catman08724]

Just opened a MOTM set booster at work today, Sword of feast and famine list slot, Thalia etched foil multiverse slot, new Temur commander and Thalia Gitrog monster for rare slots. Safe to say Im satisfied with pack openings for this set

[@michaelsinnreich6626]

Congratulations to professors local magic shop for winning this game! Serious though I'm excited for all the decks prof can put together with what he got this video. Is a teferi knights deck in the future?

[@menigmatique]

This must have been a PAIN to edit; kudos!

[@sethcarpenter6394]

Nice pulls man!!

[@SHlNRA]

that's why i love you proffessor, you love magic and you willl do anything for keep us entertaining... thank you.

Amazing endorsement of the sponsor lmao: "Look, there's worse, it's fine!"

Ok can we take a sec to say thank you to the editor? The smooth shift at 19:30 Was Chef's Kiss good. Actually now that I watched the whole thing... All of those motions were smooth as silk. Awesome job

An impressive run! One of the best in the entire series😮

[@hanslain9729]

[@Dtoszi]

@@WeaponXYZ this, boxes for fun, singles for serious

[@GrandDungeonDad]

Should buy bundles instead dropping insane list card rate mine was 50% list card per pack so 4 out of 8 packs had list slot. Some folks on youtube getting 7 list cards in a bundle.

[@russellgordon4106]

The Faerie Mastermind foil from 59:49 didn’t get added to the total. Idk if it would have mattered, but that was so close!

[@bingus2464]

Nice of prof to open a full play set of MoM for us

[@Bearhuggerus]

Masterworks/Multiverse Legends are definitely one of the best additions to the sets. Not only it feels better to crack the packs, but their price tank for a good while, making them a lot more affordable.

[@jamesgratz4771]

Oh for sure dude. I got a 40 cent Teysa karlov , and a few bucks for a grimgrin. And sheoldred Vorinclex and Jin gitaxias for like 5 bucks each! People are shredding these packs looking for ragavan

[@TheCatHerder]

Prof stuffing all those wrappers in his suit at the end really makes me wish WotC would adopt the paper wrappers that FaB uses.

[@michaelchoate5940]

Came down to the wire on that second box!

[@joranmoore5663]

I love opening boxes and challenging myself to build a Commander deck with as many of the cards from it as possible. My favorite so far was pulling Myrrim and making a Temur Dragon Tribal deck.

[@hallaloth3112]

That's what me and my husband end up doing a lot of the time. When you've been casually collecting over 10-15 years going back through the bulk gets tedious, so 'set building' a deck is a bit more manageable, and its fun to gloat to each other who got what. . .though we got a lot of duplicates between us this set. . .still had fun.

[@alexnazemi5787]

When is the Yargle and Multani precon coming out, i need it !

[@MTG_Scribe]

Distant Planes, that has a story by Michael Stakpol in it! Wow! It's not as good as Arena, but I think that book is quite good. Neat!

Thank you very much for rekindling my joy for this game, Prof.

[@PrinzkillaB90]

Love you videos ❤

[@michaelharris3842]

background music was great

[@JaySay]

Man, I love the music choices for these vid's so much; sometimes I just put it on on mobile, and browse reddit or something else like that. Chilling out to the songs, and then when I hear that _cha-ching_ sound, I might pop my eyes over and see if it's a good pull. Thanks for (most of the time) putting a bunch of money towards these vid's for us, Prof! Can't wait for you to vehemently criticize the prices for The Lord of the Rings and Commander Masters when those come around!... Despite the recent trends with WOTC, I was surprised at how lucky I was with some pulls for MOM. I only ever grab maybe a box and _if it's of a reasonable enough price..._ a bundle or gift edition bundle, but with just the one box so far with MOM I was able to get quite a lot of Masterpieces i'll actually use, Elesh Norn, Sheoldred, Teferi, and a handful of other rares i'll actually put in some decks. I'll say it again, *I GOT LUCKY.* Never forget that this is basically an addiction, so only buy boxes and packs if you can afford it and have a reason to/want to open packs or play with friends. As Prof says, buy singles when you need to, don't go in blind and hope you get what you want and more, it never happens.

[@Capstfu]

Awesome I need the background music listed bc this playlist is fire

I always appreciate these video... i get to scratch that gambling itch without spending my money, so thank you. I also enjoy getting to see all the cool showcase things and how little they are worth, so I should just go buy singles ^_^ It does seem like you saw a ton of rando cards from the list through out these... its been a while but did the push the density of the list cards up in booster packs?

[@Skeithalot]

Great content.

[@duncancheney5326]

Did not one else notice during box 5 they didn't add the foil faerie total before was 56.66 and it didn't move up the 8.43 that they showed for its price.......????!!!!! Lol

sometimes I just put these on in the background for the soundtrack and occasional sassy/excited Professor Comment

[@ryukaze20]

For me, getting an Archangel Elspeth is enough of a win for me... which makes me want to COMPLETE my Elspeth collection in the future...
