Bloomburrow has a great flavor and is fun to play. MKM isn't well liked, but it has a great land cycle that helps prop up its value and Outlaws was helped a lot having the extra bonus sheets in it. If they would have put a cool land cycle in Bloomburrow the play boosters would have a little more value and I bet the art for them would have been popular.
I think Bloomburrow is going to be one of those sleeper sets, where its value goes up in a couple years because of people's desire to draft it, or interest in the tribal supporting cards.
I miss drafting. the comradery and sheer fun of the draw with FNM but it was also my shop. it no longer exists sadly nor the play group but the memories do. and time will never take that away
@@fbgmduck Sadly many groups fall apart over time, but then that just means it's time to find another one down the road if possible and get into another group.
@@TheFluffiestZinogre this is true but when that group fell apart I fell out of playing sadly. and I've only recently gotten back into it and don't have the time to find people local. there is still one shop close but their hours are funky 🤣
@@TheFluffiestZinogre that's part of why I'm glad for the rise of the online stuff. I was more of a theory guy anyways. I like thinking more than playing. I'd be better at building for big players and coaching etc. I do play very well but I just don't have the time with how much I work right now
@@fbgmduck I feel that, being an FTE in general not considering OT eats up the majority of the week, and that's not including if projects came up. What I wouldn't give for moving to a 4 day work week hahah.
This is why i usually just buy singles: that was awful value. Out here in Australia we pay WAAAAY more for cards (close to double)so the thought of getting a box with such low value is just a huge nope for me. The whole cutesy aesthetic doesn't do it for me (and i am a girl). Oh well, there'll be another release in a month. And give us more Squire Nate! Let him do an unboxing with you or something: poor guy has earned it.
I actually suspect the cause of the low value in the set is the anime foil cards - they're one in 3 or 4 collector boosters, and collector boosters are the only way to pull the anime cards. So when you have chase cards that rare, a lot of product is opened to find them. Cards that still get sold, but in higher quantities, depressing their value.
@@certanmike I don't think that's a factor, because in the main set, there are two cards worth $25 - Innkeeper's Talent, and Three Tree City. So even if you hit multiple rares, they're still going to come out to like 3 dollars a pack in value. Note that there is a valuable uncommon in this set! Patchwork Banner, which comes ordinarily in the play booster, but is harder to find in the collector boosters (where the anime cards are)
For me the value is coming from how playable the bulk is in archetypes I enjoy. Stomp go wide and go tall are supported as well as my favorite honorable mention, flying/bird tribal. Love the full art ygra and the new Jace the mindsculptor prints too. I built with a lot of the cards from this set. Baylen in particular smacks
Love your intonation in these videos but the shorts itch me the wrong way 😂 bloomburrow was looking to be terrible value but its certainly creeping back up
I don't always agree with what "everyone" says, I just got a play booster box and pulled $250 value of cards, sold $168 worth from it and kept several awesome pulls for myself including a foil full art Secluded Courtyard. Not bad at all for $130 investment.
bought a booster box a bundle and 5 collector packs, highest value card was 10. No three trees no yagra no lumra not a single of the bigger cards. Super disappointed
Not only worst value, but Standard on Arena is now completely ruined by discard decks. It’s not enjoyable at all to play against discard decks every single game. Terrible job by Wizards…
Nah. Submarine set. Lots of strong synergy floating around waiting for people to figure it out, buyout this sh*t before the market finds a way to make it comp.
@certanmike I disagree, I have seen plenty of Bb staples and decent synergies. This is market fatigue from overprinting. I got my value out of the few packs I did buy of OtJ (not a big fan of the art) and OTJ, Bb, and MKM have all performed almost exactly the same on the market. Each has a different strength, OTJ had alot of strong staples, MKM had a couple good cards but was mostly just a weak set, and BB has cute animal art and pungent combo potential. The fact that all of these sets, reprints included or not, all failed to hold even a 1 dollar card average in spite of them having nothing in common screams overprinting.
@Joshua-gt7pz I liked the value of OTJ got a lot of good cards never felt bad cracking packs MKM was ok got at min 1 extra rare every 3ed pack now with BB never felt I got my money worth my pre release kit had 7 rares counting the fixed one my bundle had 11 counting the fixed rare
