Going to cherish watching this. MagicCon Amsterdam was my first big mtg event I've attended; and I had an absolute blast. Didn't have one bad experience over the 3 days of doing "Looking for Social" @Command Zone. Never took more than 30seconds to find players. 2 big regrets: not talking to you Esmond; and not buying wall arts of lands for my store; I want to showcase MTG arts representing biomes. ✌
I've been to other Magiccons in the states and they all seemed cramped and dark. I really liked seeing the natural light of the Amsterdam venue! Will have to make a trip out to Europe next year.
We (my daughter & I) met you on Sunday and you were very kind, it was a really nice moment and now we sre watching together all your videos. Keep doing videos, you are the best!
these are always so awesome. even as an introvert I found a lot to enjoy and branch out a bit. Vegas was my first one and I plan to make it back asap --- these events (and esp the people) are the best. looks like they upped the ante in Amsterdam.
I am so happy that you had a great time there! 🤗you def deserve it! I actually bought tickets to go (I went to Magic30 in Vegas in 2022 and had the best time, so wanted to go to more conventions) but I couldnt make it to this Amsterdam one because of grad school work 😅 I hope to catch the next convention and maybe meet you guys and other awesome content creators and artists!! Also want to add a thanks for creating and and hosting the best and authentic MTG channel 😎 so much fun to watch all your content (definitely helping me get through grad school lol)
It was so cool getting a chance to meet and play with you! (Even though we got our asses kicked) ps thanks for the playmat i will cherish it foreverrrrrr
Was super cool to get to play a game late on Sunday (Esper rogues). Even getting rolled by Nahiri was a great time, wish you all the best with the channel, hope to meet you again in European con some time!
I was there as well on Sunday, because I'm dutch and still studying in the Netherlands it was only a couple of hours of trainrides either way for me. I also saw you at some point in the creator zone at the beginning of the day when my sister was meeting a friend for the first time who was playing Canadian highlander there. I didn't go up to talk to you because you seemed to be recording a video + we had gotten way more tickets than we paid for so we were going quite quickly to start drafting and such.
Me and my friend were able to meet and talk with you at the con and I have to say you were definetly one of our highlights of the weekend! Thank you for taking the time for a longer conversation as well as the 2 shocklands :D Keep up with the amazing content!!
I've saw you playing in the Creator Central but I didn't want to disturb you, thinking I would meet you again the others days but unfortunately didn't happened. Hopefully I'm gonna manage to meet you in another occasion, I really love your content and I was so amazed that you had travelled all that way to Amsterdam!
I thought I saw you there. I think this video was a true representation of the event. The Merch queue and queue for artist signatures were painful at some points. But it was a great event and glad I went.
16:10 Hey i didnt realize you filmed my boardstate, that's cool. Cube draft was awesome indeed, my deck was busted though, turns out commander cards are good in 1v1 ;)
Great Video, looked like you had a great time and made me feel like I was there :D I didn't know an event like this existed but I'm really hyped now, will there be another one next year?
My friends and I had a great time playing games with you! Let us know when you're in the UK (London) next, we'll meet up again! Keep up the great work :D
Hey Esmond, I'm from Germany and can say the weather was not so usual, it was a heatwave at that time. Hope you enjoyed the culture in the netherlands and that you had a little time for yourself aka some kind of vacation ^^
