So far the set boxes look great, but I just can't pay that much for cards I mostly already own. I hope they get opened by the masses and not hoarded sealed, so I can grab the cards that I want on the dip.

[@workoutdude1118]

Of course you wouldn't buy a set box with cards you already own😂😂😂 I would buy that box in a heart beat, amazing reprints in this release. Im all for it.

[@BucketOfFail]

I remember opening packs and getting the medallions when they were first released and being amazed by them. I think they are a really good addition to this set.

[@painmerchantgaming5193]

Totally understood your burninate reference. Well played

[@dennislera3713]

I love your videos. super calming.

[@WildcatMTG]

That’s a strong showing for the Set box. It’s funny that The List is a throwaway…. Like, why do it at all? All that aside, I’m pretty impressed by the assortment.

[@akaikiseki9346]

Thank you for opening boxes and dropping prices !!

[@Kalarticus11]

the frame break art in this set is sick, especially that balefire

[@robertstable834]

Wow what a deep box!! Yeah this product will age extremely well and will stay relevant for quite some time. Are they expensive? Yes. Do you get some great pulls? Also yes. Thanks POA!

[@gregorymarston2529]

4 medallion box!!!! Wow!! I’m super happy for you. I seen someone open a case of collector boxes, trying to collect all five medallions and they only pulled one lol. good job.

[@atraxa1230]

Totally was hoping you'd load a video early! Lol. I'm working and bored. Thanks for the video! Can't wait to see your pulls! 😊

[@kylemiller9040]

One of my good buddies runs Ashling the pilgrim just to make everybody miserable. He calls it his Riff Raff deck; "My main goal is to blow up, and act like I don't know nobody-"

[@faerie7dragon]

I wanted to buy one, but I got most of the cards already, so I am saving for Wilds of Eldraine! Pretty good box overall.

[@Ceej582]

Excellent box. Going to buy singles.

[@Typhoon106]

The detail is real. No shame in appreciating those sweet lands!

[@Alessandro-mg9oh]

Very enjoyable unboxing.

[@far_north_magic5852]

Nice box! I also like how people are like it is one too many reprint for cards that is the first reprint or it’s been forever

[@PawzBrownMTG]

Love that Myriad Landscape full art

[@PawzBrownMTG]

Nice job losing the list gotta have more spots lol

[@ConnorDMoody]

That Nivix from the list is from the Izzet vs. Golgari duel deck.

[@NaniTCG]

And it begins!

[@Ceej582]

I wish the price point was actually achievable so that I could get all those staples and not have to buy them individually

[@Simplycoburn]

I caved and bought 7 packs at 14.50 from my lgs and got a doubling season, cyclonic rift, and a archfiend of despair so I was pretty happy. Also got lighting greeves and a couple other decent like 1-3 dollar cards. I gotta stop there and not test my luck again haha

[@coachesmagic2886]

Props for just enjoying the hobby today; we all know it costs money just for the experience of popping packs. Nice to see the layout from a full box, hard to follow the track printing with 135 rares and all the extra rare slots in packs

[@PackOpeningAddict]

I love this product regardless of the current single prices. I think the depth of the commons/uncommons helps a lot in having staples to add to random decks I build for years.

[@SilverquillDropout]

Yeah that was a deep box. From what I’ve seen, the value is there with this set.

[@soothing_de4th863]

Have you seen the prices for the singles tanking?

[@Rychlloyd21]

"It has begun"

[@ryangreenwald3755]

I had one of these boxes in my shopping cart.... kinda glad I bailed

[@robertstable834]

Woo! LFG!

[@solrina5966]

How dare you PoA? How dare you take nearly half an hour and enjoy yourself while opening a new set AND have the gall to see things from different perspectives? I kid, I kid, but I do agree that was a lot of fun! Seemed like a pretty wild box and with so many great cards. I wanna see the complete Medallion cycle get pulled! Thanks for the video and the positivity!

[@jacobriggs4461]

I really wish CBs were from the JPN printers. I'd probably make a bad choice and buy a case.

[@paulallison3974]

I feel like they put so much beef into the set that they wen't crazy with some really off the wall list 'hits' (at the start of the video) hopefully you get something nifty)

[@SaerosOronra]

Hi, I'm a fairly new player that mostly play's commander. Since i don't own any of these cards. Would it be worth getting a set booster box (445 euro/487 dollar) or is it better to go for a different set like Wilds of Eldraine / Kamigawa neon dynasty (love the art work in this set) Loving the content, keep it up! :)

[@PackOpeningAddict]

Honestly, buy singles from this set

[@SaerosOronra]

Cool, i'll do that! Thanks for the response!

[@unarmedpuppyV2]

TCG low of your two columns on the right is $158 as of release day. This comment is for science.

[@justinclement5417]

Hey man, first time watching one of your videos. That was an icebox, very nice assortment and spread of Staples and playables. I'm sitting here staring at the one thing that I bought for this product line... A single collector box. I bought it at $200 flat before anything was announced, so I thought I did a good job because other people were paying 20-30 $50 more, but I don't know what the hell to do with it. I'm all about the art and those nice lands, but these profile cards that you get in the commander products or trash. If I wanted to see a profile of a goose I would go to the freaking Park. Anyway, these sets to have good cards, but they are just destroying the value of everything every time they drop a set. Why can't they just do a all-new set without putting a crap ton of reprints in it? Did the great henge need to get three back-to-back-to-back printings? The only thing that still had a good price in it eldraine and they put it in lotr, Commander Masters, wild of eldraine. Same with urz😅a Lord High artificer. Urza was a god back in modern Horizons and even modern Horizons to when you can pull him in etched or the the Retro frame now they're just going to print him until he's five bucks. They need to just print new cards and leave everything alone. Not reprint any card for at least 3 years. A card cannot get a reprint anisette but once every three years. Who agrees with me? I think that would help a lot of things out. Yeah nice cards, but they're just completely trash in the market and they don't care. I like your positive attitude and the way you enjoyed the set they made me enjoy a lot more as well. I just rang your bell and subbed to your Channel

[@jeremiehoule548]

Do you use/collect the art cards or just throw them away?

[@PackOpeningAddict]

There is a patron I send them too

[@codelicious6590]

Above-average box for sure, wow.

[@teferitoots8043]

Saying "good question" to your own question is like laughing at your own jokes. But, yes, hard to talk to the camera. Easier said than done. Glad you enjoyed the break. Good to see 4/5 medallions.

[@PackOpeningAddict]

@ryangreenwald3755 welcome back! Unfortunately this has been a process they've followed since strixhaven. The commander deck exclusive cards aren't part of the actual set. Edit: the only commander exclusives they've done in some of the set boxes were the face and second commander. They did none of them this time

Right to left. Mythics. More expensive rares. Mid level rares. Not bulk rares. Sweet uncommons/commons

[@jasonsmith2218]

Man I feel like you lost $200 opening the box. Nice product but vastly over priced.

[@PackOpeningAddict]

Na. You can't look at prices at this very moment in time. Things are already ticking back up.

[@jasonsmith2218]

@@PackOpeningAddict you think prices are going up after release??? This would be the first set ever for that to happen. Many of the 3-5 dollar cards will still crater to $1. Textured foils are still going down once the whales have their cards.

[@PackOpeningAddict]

@@jasonsmith2218 it is not the first. We've been heavily tracking the prices over the past 5 days. Some will recover, some never will. I bought a borderless D-Toot that so far has proven to be the market low of 30 when I bought it and is now pushing 40. And let's be clear, I'm talking about basic cards. Textured will crash.

Actually, many cards are recovering already. The tank happened the day before official release. (We've been tracking this with actual tcgplayer sold and listings). This box did quite well overall vs box price
