-- Why am I whispering? --
I whisper in my videos because they're intended first and foremost to trigger a sensation known as ASMR. ASMR is a very specific feeling that some people experience when they hear certain soft sounds, such as whispering and tapping, or see certain visuals, such as slow hand motions. It's often described as a pleasant tingling in the head, neck, and back, accompanied by a sense of calmness and mild euphoria. Many people watch ASMR videos to help them relax or fall asleep. To learn more about ASMR, I recommend checking out asmruniversity.....

Thank you so much for doing another MTG video. These are so unbelievably relaxing. You have fantastic pacing and I love how you appreciate the cards. Thanks!

"Fat pack Unboxing" Me when i undress.

[@Lurvpanda]

hi there! I have found it difficult to listen to the guys who do ASMR but you made me actually fall asleep finally thank you very much

[@theASMRnerd]

You're welcome man, glad the video worked for you.

[@KiLl_FrEnZy88]

was watching this during a lazy Friday, found myself sleeping behind my desk LOL

[@theASMRnerd]

Haha was this at work?

[@whisperedstories]

Glad to see a new video from you. As always, this was very relaxing to listen to :-)

[@theASMRnerd]

Whispered_Stories Thanks, glad you found it relaxing! I fell asleep listening to your latest unintelligible whisper a couple nights back, so the tingles are mutual :)

[@PaulArtworkASMR]

Thank you for the video. Ive quick magic from 2002, but i still find it very interesting.

[@theASMRnerd]

You're welcome Paul! Yeah, I used to play more than I do today. If I play at all these days, it's just casually with friends, and even that's pretty rare.

[@debris1673]

I love your intro so much, started to think of my child hood when I had my silver Gameboy Advance SP..

[@DonnaASMR]

I'm pretty sure I'll fall asleep while watching this, so let me just comment before: Glad you're back and congrats on 8k subs! :D Thanks for all the effort you put into these wonderful videos!

[@theASMRnerd]

Thanks Donna :D I hope you find the video relaxing. I really appreciate you still taking the time to comment on my videos, it means a lot to me and I really must reciprocate more often :)

[@TabuhanASMR]

This video was very helpful to my relief. Thank you ♥

[@theASMRnerd]

My pleasure, glad you found it helpful! Thanks for watching.

[@carlitobandito9420]

Awesome video once again Nick! Glad to have You back

[@theASMRnerd]

Glad you enjoyed it man :)

[@Kippydahcamper]

The gem they added to the rare cards reminds me of hearthstone cards and their gem rarity system.

[@theASMRnerd]

Yeah, it is kinda reminiscent of that isn't it? I wonder if Hearthstone provided part of the impetus for adding it? Like I say in the video, I think it's a kind of strange addition, but it looks OK I guess, so why not.

[@obesedog23]

Great vid. Helps me fall asleep when everything else makes me jittery. Perfect video, keep doing you.

[@theASMRnerd]

Thanks, glad it helps you! I'll be doing a new MTG video soon with a Fate Reforged fat pack :)

[@obesedog23]

***** awesome!

[@IsaacAldan]

It's been said a bunch already, but glad to have you back man. :) It's always great to see a new video from you.

[@theASMRnerd]

IsaacAldan Thanks man, glad to be back :)

[@ncanders47]

Glad to see you back. Great video

[@Unikronify]

Yay a new video! Thank you for the update. :) The Khans prerelease was AMAZEBALLS, this set is so ridiculously fun. I hope you'll do a Khans Fat Pack opening too! *Edit: Also, I think it would be amazing if you opened all the booster packs, and maybe just went through them a little faster. Read the names of all the commons and uncommons but only read the entirety of the rares perhaps? The flipping through cards and sound of the booster packs being opened is just the best. My two cents! :D

[@theASMRnerd]

Awesome :D I'm really looking forward to KTK, and I'll most definitely do a fat pack opening. And thanks for the suggestion! In my experience, MTG fans who watch these videos always want me to open more packs to see what I pull, whereas people who are here just for the ASMR don't care about the cards themselves, just the sounds and whispers. Maybe what I'll try next time is doing one pack slowly and thoroughly, and then do another couple where I just shuffle past the commons and get right to the good stuff. We'll see!

[@alexserrano3316]

That intro is a classic, you should consider bringing it back :)

[@imdrew2]

Cool video, thanks!

[@Pozoe12]

You remind me of ephemeral rift

[@theASMRnerd]

***** Really? Thanks! He's the best.

[@AmellsGrace]

Did I spy with my little eye a siege wurm? Do Core set's bring back really old mechanics often? I wouldn't have expected to see a reprint of the first ravnica block, nor one with an old mechanic. That being said I do love convoke.

[@AmellsGrace]

AnUnculturedLittlePotato If your going to buy a fat pack have you considered saving a few of the packs and opening some old ones later, like in between sets? I'm not up to date on the set schedule but I may as well bring it up~ Better to be vocal and wrong then silent and right as I like to say.

[@TinyJuiceboxASMR]

That intro is freaking great 👍🏼

[@Kusiruukku]

I think that the little shiny thing on the rares is to prevent/make it harder to make illegal copies of the cards or something

[@theASMRnerd]

Yeah that makes a lot of sense. Makes the rare cards harder to counterfeit.

[@callumyaxx9597]

+TheIvoryFalcon Yeah. It's used mostly for tournament purposes. When my friend played in his Magic tourney, they checked his cards over to see if they were all legal.

[@Kusiruukku]

Callum Yaxx interesting

[@Moonmerism]

We heard him confirm that storm crow is amazing

[@Ifeno]

I hope you don't mind me asking a potentially stupid question, but what exactly is the difference between this kind of video, and an ear-to-ear whisper?

[@Ifeno]

Right, which is what leads to my question. I can't seem to hear the difference between ear-to-ear and regular whispering. Is it because I don't listen with headphones or...?

[@theASMRnerd]

Ifeno Yes, headphones (or even earbuds) will significantly enhance the ear-to-ear effect. In fact, I highly recommend listening to all ASMR videos with headphones. That being said, this video probably isn't the best example of ear-to-ear sounds. There are many excellent videos out there if you search ear-to-ear ASMR. Try them with headphones, I think you'll like it!

[@Ifeno]

***** Alrighty, I definitely will! Often times I'm laying in bed when watching these videos so headphones kind of get in the way, but I'll be sure to try it out!

[@Ifeno]

***** Solid advice, I'll give that a shot. The main reason headphones get in the way is because I inevitably curl up on my side when laying in bed, and laying with one ear on the actual ear piece of the earphones is....not the greatest feeling in the world.

[@theASMRnerd]

Ifeno I know that feel. I have a pair of earbuds that are quite small and low-profile, so I can lay on my side and they don't hurt. I was lucky, they came with my phone. I know there are headphones made especially for laying in bed (I think they're called Bedphones), but I've never used them so I can't say if they're any good or not. Seem to have decent reviews on Amazon though, maybe give them a look.

[@samppa7782]

One question, whats ur core voltage for 4,4? I have same cpu but sitting at 4.3@1.200v Also, really like the vids. :) !

[@wwethemes5580]

Love it :)

[@xTaintedRedx]

Good god almighty that squid is horrifying.

[@theASMRnerd]

Haha while I was recording I didn't even notice, but I just went back and looked and holy crap you're right. Squid should not have teeth like that .__.

[@hawkcraft8583]

Soooooooooo, Khans is coming out. Any Fat Pack unboxings I should be excited for?

[@erwin21381]

Sweet!

[@BenjiBlue]

do you happen to have lorthos the tide maker

[@TheOnlySnuskz]

You should try out hearthstone, since u like magic the gathering so much! :D maybe u could make an asmr video out of it too, that would be perfect! Love the vids, keep it up :3

[@theASMRnerd]

TheOnlySnuskz I've played a bit of Hearthstone, and it's really good :) I floated the idea of a Hearthstone ASMR vid a couple of times and didn't get much of a response, but maybe I'll try again in future. You should check out Stone Whisperer though, he's got quite a few Hearthstone ASMR vids :)

[@lukewoudsma6023]

Been looking forward for this vid for ages glad it's out and could you do a magic card sorting vid I know you do pokemon ones so I was just wondering keep up the good work :)

[@eltyo340]

Yesss!!! WOo another video! On another note... did you ever plan on finishing that civ 5 game? :3

[@theASMRnerd]

TweedleGun Haha I PLAN to do a lot of things, but what actually ends up happening is often another thing entirely :P. But yes, I really do want to do another Civ 5 vid. It's just that I've got all these OTHER videos I really want/should do as well, so...I can't make any promises, but it'll probably happen eventually. Sorry I can't give a more definite answer!

[@eltyo340]

***** Nah, it's fine! I like all your videos anyway ;D

[@leonardodahlen5270]

Awesome

[@shadowbuddy8034]

Dang guys, I just realized something The Box makes good sounds!

[@theASMRnerd]

[@shadowbuddy8034]

Yeah, I know! Crazy right?!

[@ospe0301]

[@longsilver2646]

[@TheRack-kg6rb]

1 hora un fat pack? y halando flojo,te daba un -10

[@user-jt3zg2xc8b]

Why were u wispering

[@k4ever206]

+smurphy plays ASMR

[@bingobango9007]

What some people don't realise is the fact that an ASMR is better triggered without any speaking at all... Maybe try on sometime.

[@bingobango9007]

Sorry, that sounded a little rude, it was just meant Tobe some friendly advice.

[@theASMRnerd]

+Tristan Hester I think it's pretty subjective. Some people love whispering, while others prefer sounds only. For me, it depends on the mood. I have a few sounds-only videos (check out my mechanical keyboard vid, or my Star Wars lego vid, for instance), but I mostly do whispering or soft speaking.

[@bingobango9007]

Ok, thank you for the reply. I will check those vids out.

[@clefttwain1087]

+Tristan Hester Mine can only be triggered with whispering and eating sounds.

[@olympiawa7891]
