What price would you think is reasonable? A or B.

[@joshuabornschein466]

I always think those Cubeamajigs would be super cool. I’ve never played cube but it if it’s kind of like draft man, I could really get down with it. Problem is I just don’t have to playgroup for it. By the way, have you ever considered maybe skipping a set every year now. I mean think about it, every year when you’re looking at all the sets that are going to come out that year. Just decide you know what I’m not going to buy or even review, I will briefly speak about , this set. Maybe even do a video two weeks later saying these are the cards you should buy from this set I’m skipping. kind of like a show to the community that it’s OK not to buy everything. Last year I didn’t buy March the machine aftermath. The wilds of eldraine. Doctor Who. And Lord of the rings holiday edition.

[@Roxasherz]

I wanted to order some right away, since I've been looking for a better solution for my Jumpstart packs, which I use for my more casual friends - sadly shipping to Europe costs 100+$ :/

[@WhiteBread221]

@@joshuabornschein466Cube is amazing and you should check in with your local game store to see if they have a group of people who already play cube that you could jump in with. Or you can do what I did and build a cube for your commander group and start pushing them to draft with you more often

[@deathkitty23]

Would $135 be a good price to buy these at?

[@williameverittenseignant2143]

The Professor is always honest in his reviews and call things the way they are. Thank you for being such a voice for the regular people and what we all think of this product; fun, but too expensive.

[@amanawolf9166]

@@Draconalis Yea, for me, it was Phyrexia all will be one. I wanted to get some nice good cards, and I've been screwed almost time and time again. Not one pack has yielded a Sheoldred for me. With the money spent on packs, both collector and set, I could have bought about 4 Sheoldred, the Apocalypse in the Concept Art, Step-And-Compleat Foil formats in near-mint condition. It just doesn't feel worth it anymore. The last straw for me was that SoB firing 1100 employees in the pursuit of profit. This year, I'm gonna limit my purchases to 75% of what I did last year, and then tap out in 2025. I'm not getting into a gambling addiction.

Can’t wait to draft this with my buddies in 2025 for $100 a box!

[@georgiopapakonstantinou1580]

That's when I'm buying too haha

[@jordanlinscott8849]

$120 a box would actually be pretty fair value for this set. Most of these cards will drop, and the Shocklands are going to just keep going down with more printings. I really think depending on how much of this they printed we might realistically see sub $6 shock lands.

[@SpinAroundU]

Yeah no, shocks always go back up to 10-15$ price, it would need a lot of reprints back to back to change that. They were 5$ for about a year when 2nd and 3rd rav block dropped, but it did not last long

[@jeffreydavis6615]

Thank you, Mr. Professor, sir.

[@pneuma08]

​@@SpinAroundUYeah seriously, shock lands can go in EVERY multi-colored deck. As long as people keep making more decks for any reason, their demand will not go down.

[@antonioarrendol2655]

I'm frankly proud of The Professor for sticking to his guns and maintaining a sane standard of pricing in the face of WOTC's increasing greed. He could easily just be like "I guess thats just what the prices are now!" But he's keeping it real and calling out that yes, while things may change, those changes can be bad, and we shouldnt just accept when a company tries to continually push the financial boundaries on its consumer base. Thank you, Prof.

[@omahonda]

Can you be my dad? As a father myself, I wish my kids were into MtG.

[@DoxxdMartens]

I always appreciate prof never laying blame at the feet of the LGS's, but I'm curious what are LGS's meant to do when the cost to order sets like Rav Remaster are $140+ a box buying directly from distro? How can local game stores survive on that profit margin and expect to continue carrying magic at all? At $160 (the recommended price as per the video) your favorite store will pocket $20 in profit only.

[@kazekage_gaara_-8027]

It feels like the price point of this set is to lay the foundation of the upcoming price increase for Play Booster Boxes, as far as what one should expect to pay for the draft experience going into 2024 and beyond.

[@eewweeppkk]

Indeed. Totally up to the professor whether or not he wants to be a more influential consumer force, but I wish he would point out the power consumers have when they DON'T buy overpriced garbage over and over again. Instead of saying something like 'if you have the spare cash and this product will bring you joy then go for it' I wish he would say 'I implore you not to support these horribly anti-consumer products so that the trend dies and we get products offered to us at more reasonable prices, saving EVERYBODY, including you, money long term'. While I think that is 100% true I also respect that prof is his own dude and doesn't have to be a consumer activist or anything like that.

[@Klone240]

@@eewweeppkk is 100% agree, im canadian and now for the past 4 sets boxes ( set-draft and collector) has been at the 360-500$ + tax range wich for some its like 4-6 month of saving and by then we get new sets and we have to spend that saved money on the singles and then restart the process all over again, its hard for us to stay up to date now for deck building and upgrades

Another solid analysis Prof. Great video. Thank you for the work you do for us. Really lucky to have you around. 🙏

[@Jon-Jon309]

The card stock is AMAZING!!!! im very blown away by these improvements

[@doubledeviant]

English language cards are printed in the United States, Japan, or Belgium. Each uses different stock, and they're easy to tell apart. If you got a box with good card stock, your box was likely printed in Japan. The box will list the source country (bottom and sides), and so will the packs (back of the wrapper). I mention it so that you can pay attention and get the stock you prefer in the future. Around here, we usually see U.S. and Japanese boxes on the shelves, but some sets and products only have U.S. printings.

[@Dracon715]

I love cracking packs but at this point I’m just going to buy singles when they drop in price. Hopefully future sets to come get better pricing wise.

But then I stop playing MTG a first time… and I came back with Return to Ravnica… later I took a second hiatus, and did my final comeback at the time of: Guilds of Ravnica. Basically: Ravnica is the set/plane which brought me to MTG and brought me back twice to magic the gathering…. And with that, I’m sad to say that I WILL NOT BUY a Ravnica Remastered product. I already had my mind set before watching your video prof; but watching it confort me in feeling/decision. I love your review videos!!! As you pointed out, I’m really sad… I’m crying inside… considering how special this set is.. but I CANNOT justify spending ~$180 for a booster box or ~$260 for a collector one… WORST: I’m a freaking otaku!!!

Good morning professor!! 🎉

[@hoodiegal]

None of my LGSes were hosting a draft event for this, so I bought 10 packs and drafted at home. The draft was really fun! The notable cards I got out of those 10 packs were 2 shocklands, a borderless Lord of the Void, and two copies of Teferi, Time Raveler (one of which was in foil!). Despite surprisingly good luck with pulling expensive rares, they very much did not pay for themselves, and save the two shocklands, i didn't pull any cards over €5 that i intend to keep. It was a lovely experience and I'd love to play more of this set, but it's simply too expensive for me to justify that, especially with the other releases that I'm interested in later this spring.

The problem is that no set can be judged in isolation from the price it is offered at. For every set, there is a price at which it becomes a Fail and a price at which it becomes an A+. Even the bad Jumpstart sets would have been fine if they were priced at 20 bucks a box.

While I'm not that much of a magic player, I can really relate to your feelings here as a Warhammer player. I'll see new miniatures like Angron come out that look absolutely stunning, but then that fades once I look at the price tag. They are still great one off buys if you get good use out of them (by having say a big draft group to split the cost with for mtg or for Warhammer if you have the materials to paint it and friends to play it with), but I really wish I didn't have to run a cost-benefit analysis every time I was interested in one of these products.

I am publicly acknowledging that this video is not negative, nor overwhelmingly positive. It's just a fair review of a product. Thanks for keeping it real on the value of things.

[@c_mill2451]

As much as I love Ravnica-themed sets, especially since the two sets before War of the Spark were my entry point to collecting MTG cards, the honesty of this analysis of Ravnica Remastered is needed, especially for someone like me who would no doubt have spent plenty of cash on the set. $180 for a booster box of this set is ridiculous and with the amount of products coming out really kills a lot of excitement for it.

RMR isn't a remastered set, it's a DRAFT set. Not worth it to buy packs unless it's for drafting, then it's totally worth it

[@benjaminlehman3221]

That’s every set. Don’t buy packs unless you are drafting. Buy singles

[@professionalcasual5482]

Except it's also not a worthwhile draft set, higher price for drafting too atleast in my area

[@ItsDangerousGoAlone]

It should be 4 buck packs then, which i actually think would be an amazing product if true

[@jojobetzler3732]

Buying packs to draft RVR is probably one of the biggest wastes of money right now. I could draft Baldur´s Gate for 70 Euro a box (with a chance of really big hits), DMU for 80 Euro (a single Sheoldred would finance the hole draft) or DMR for 130 Euro. The right time to draft RVR is in beginning of 2025 when LGS are selling of the left over Boxes as the next overpriced and undervalued reprint set hits the shelfes. Same same but different like it went with DMR.

[@CreateWorlds]

Sure. It it’s priced like a remastered set so that doesn’t matter. It’s priced like remastered but it’s a draft set. That’s the entire issue

[@MultiBeerme]

As a big fan of Ravnica, I have to hold myself back from getting a booster box. I bought a box of almost every Ravnica box since the first visit and I'll buy this one too, but I gotta practice self control.

[@dmsin8968]

man, the price of your videos is just cosmic for sure), you'll never be suffering from this Hasbro's syndrome of "let's reprint the reprinted we printed before". love your content, love your jacket, love your hair, man))))

[@distractdelude7121]

Picked up a few draft packs on a whim as I hadn't been paying attention to what was in the set & thought it looked cool. I won't be doing that again. Would be cool to draft but the drafts are also priced too high. Thanks, WotC.

[@ryanbarry894]

I feel like this set price is going to drop like crazy after a few months

[@jethrotannis5673]

I think Ravnica Remastered Draft Booster Boxes shouldn't cost more than $120. I really think that this set may be the death knell of Remastered Sets going forward. Obviously Innistrad Remastered is already planned, but this may just give WOTC enough of a push to kill the concept after Innistrad.

[@AndresColumbus]

they shouldn't cost more than $100 but the players (that are left) and 2ndary sellers have been conditioned to overpay out the ass

[@charlie2136]

Important correction needed: shocklands do NOT appear in the rare slot in booster packs. They only appear in the mana slot.

[@charlie2136]

Also all 10 shocklands are printed at "rare" but their pull rate is halved so each shock has the pull rate of a mythic.

[@OS1RIS]

My LGS wanted $45 USD for a draft. 2 Prize packs per player. Absolutely could not justify that price for my wallet.

[@Rockguhguh]

Really tought to see the price going for more than 180 dollars, and here in Brazil some of the cheapest boxes are selling for ~255ish dollars. Its getting harder and harder to play magic. Great video as always prof.
