From Magic 30, a product for no one, to Jumpstart 2022, a product for everyone, both releasing in the span of 1 week is absolutely crazy.

@Radiodragonofdoom Год назад

Right? It's like WotC is trying to find the formula for putting out as much low effort nonsense as possible, while also keeping you engaged by reminding you that they still employ actual game designers.

@Doofindork Год назад

I'm not necessarily protecting Wizards of the Coast by saying this, just a heads up. But they have said before that they want to make boxes that fits everyones wallets. Cheap boxes, mid boxes, and expensive boxes. They also finally have realised that selling $20 Commander decks for beginners was actually a good idea because they upgraded all their decks to $50 ones, no matter what was in them and that super backfired. What they need to remember is that the lower costed stuff needs to be FUN AND PLAYABLE. That has been their issue. And their top end stuff is overpriced as all hell. It's like they are fumbling blindly with this, no matter what feedback we give them. I hope 30th anniversary stings for them.

@alexandercandicedad1355 Год назад

WotC is clearly experimenting with what the player base wants [is willing to spend], and hopefully they get the message that good products are better than.... whatever 30th anniversary was...

One VERY important thing to notice is that the original JS was released only in english language, while the JS 22 has been translated in various other languages (french, italian, german...) this is sooooo useful since this product is perfect for casual players, I couldn't just grab an original JS box and play with my friends because of the language barrier, while NOW I can with JS22. This is a HUGE selling point.

@DrFlorent Год назад

One thing to keep in mind when comparing the financial value to that of the original JumpStart, since the first set was underprinted at launch and really hard to find this made the prices of cards exclusive to jumpstart go ridiculously high. Once they started printing it again and made it widely available the prices went down a lot, and are now a lot closer to that of the new JumpStart 2022 cards. With that said, time to get a box so that I can play some games with family for Christmas!

@Kazz1187 Год назад

I wanted to get a box of jumpstart 2022, but the boxes are marked up to ~$120 USD

@Bmacthesage Год назад

EDIT: those little Dragon Shield boxes are called "cube shell" boxes in case you guys are interested. This is one of those things that even though I only play proxy commander with the boys, getting one of each of these Jumpstart boxes with reboxable packs sound so awesome. It's tempting to get these, and if they come down in price a bit more, I may just pick these up.

@Ev-gd2ys Год назад

This is precisely what I did, using burger tokens - perfect fit deck boxes. They fit single sleeved half decks wonderfully. Those (or similar) along with a carrying case of some sort (I went inexpensive on Amazon) and the replayability is practically endless!

@Sariusify Год назад

Tbh, I got the original jump start and simply put numbers on my sleeves and put them in small plastic bags. Sure, doesn't look quite as nice, but it doesn't change the gameplay, so I do recommend

Jumpstart 2021 / 2022 is my defacto choice for recommending how to on-board new players. Grab 2 JS 2021 / 2022 per player Learn the basics Magic rules Start playing! With just 4 JS booster packs, there are 4 decks for variety. If WoTC did a JS Battle Academy version (similar to Pokémon Battle Academy) it would be the cherry on the cake JS 2021 / 2022 is one of the only MtG products that I can enthusiastically recommend to new players

It could also be worth purchasing a box of original JS as well. While you may get a couple of the same theme, mine weren't identical packs. Plus, you can combine original JS with J22 and have a plethora of combinations!

@broomguy7 Год назад

Getting a box of JMP and J22 and keeping everything in resealable packs seems like a great way to keep playing Jumpstart. If there are more Jumpstart core sets in the future, and they're consistent in power level, it could be come an expanding collection of packs to draw from. I feel like it'd be good to keep on hand for quick, balanced games, or for introducing new players to Magic.

@FireMrshlBill Год назад

Would you recommend buying a box of 2022 or the original? I've been out of the game for nearly 20yrs. Getting back into it and thought about buying a box to get some fun quick decks built and maybe build up some bulk. It may be another year or two before I can really get my oldest kid into it, but figured them opening packs with me may get them more excited about it (I did buy one of those Pokemon Battle Arena boxes and play that from time to time, so some interest in card games is there). Thinking maybe grabbing the original now and maybe 2022 if needed down the line. May also see if a LGS has anyone that does jumpstart and not just commander or modern/legacy that will take me some time to get into.

@AshenWingzTCG Год назад

@@FireMrshlBill If I'm being honest, I think both the original and 2022 are great buys. Even buying both is a great concept because you'll have even more variety. This is also a great beginner collection because it has so many good reprints in them as wellbas different themes to find the playstyle you like. As far as finding events for Jumpstart at an LGS, I'd just call and ask. Usually if you can get the people to fire off an event, most LGS dont mind running one.

@rileymcphee9429 Год назад

I disagree with the unique part. There's a surprisingly high number of repeat themes from the first Jumpstart and many of the cards in the new themes have the same rares or uncommoms that the first Jumpstart set had. This ultimately doesn't matter if the gameplay is different and fun, but I just thought it was important to note.

@mattmc20 Год назад

I have a 9 year old and we just cracked our first box of jumpstart. It is PERFECT for it!! Glad they got it right. Best part is, 2023 is only about 20 days away so we can get ready for Jumpstart Q1 2023!

@rileymcphee9429 Год назад

I did this as well. I went through the rare and common packs and combined them into a single pack so they're more competitive with the mythic packs. Some of the themes were still meh, but overall a great time. I also bought that unsanctioned box and made custom JS packs. I liked it but my wife hated them lol

✋I am one of those sic folk that have gotten 4+ games of gamenight in. The ppl I play with either haven't played heavily for months/years OR are tired of the growing list of shortfalls of commander. Players having turns of "Land,pass" has been more engaging than four players waiting 5-10 minutes while the fifth is either a) going through a nondeterministic loop or the far more often, b) parsing out all of their triggers, forgetting about a third of them anyway. Side note, the recent game night is the perfect box of planechase decks.

It feels like they wanted the set jumpstart packs to act as an addition to the main jumpstart, rather than its own product. A way to spice up jumpstart with cards from the newest set. But if that's the case, they failed miserably by releasing them before Jumpstart 2022.

I'm currently getting into MTG (back into it more precisely), and I just wanted to say thank you for your videos, friend. MTG is incredibly confusing when you don't know what you're doing, and still being uncertain where to start, I wound up purchasing a 1,000 card lot from Star City Games on Amazon. If I get into MTG because of it, great, but if not, at least I'll have a mini-collection to call my own. I'd be curious to know your thoughts on such card lots, and if it'd be a fun way to play (everyone buys a 1,000 card lot and plays against one another for $20-30). I'm a big fan of Serra Angel after all these years, and angels in genera, and I'm thinking about buying a premade angel deck off eBay, or buying various singles, but we'll see. Who knows, maybe I'll open up a bunch of angel cards in the card lot. Thank you again, and God bless :)

I keep the themes together but replace the high value cards with proxies.

My wife and I decided to go to our LGS on release night for this by absolute happenstance. I wanted to get back into MTG after not playing since 2012 and she wanted to learn for the first time. We grabbed a box of this, took it home and we are only just getting down to our last packs. So much fun, so much value, and it really took me back to why I loved the game all those years ago. The decks, while challenging, were also built well enough for a complete beginner in my wife to pick up and play (with many educational moments and questions of course). If this product had existed back when I was originally playing, I likely would have stuck around more. I love building non-meta decks and having a good time. But grabbing a box of these and forcing everyone to play with a non-meta deck and get creative would have brought a new dimension to my old play-group whose only interest was to win in the most efficient way possible. This product is sincerely what this game is, and should always be about. I could go on for hours about it. Consider my interest in the game re-ignited. Thanks for this video reaffirming my feelings for this box. I love it!

@dabbrill4609 Год назад

I went to my LGS's Jumpstart 2022 event. We got 3 packs for $15 and had to choose 2 of 3 for our deck. It was, sincerely, among my best experiences with a limited-type format ever. The decks players had were strong and varied. I don't typically enjoy cracking packs for their own sake since I am painfully aware how few if any of those cards will ever be used to play MTG unless the packs were opened as part of a limited event. Jumpstart 2022 gave me the opposite feeling - cracking my prize packs was fun and exciting for its own sake.

@TheNobleG Год назад

Looks like an exciting way for experienced players to have some easy casual fun! Thank God it's 24 packs instead of 18 I have no idea what they were thinking with the set Jumpstarts. I'll definitely be cubing them too. $90 for endless combinations. Not even sure why they sell Game Night.

@yazars Год назад

Wow folks, I'm getting tempted to buy my first magic product since the 90s to have something fun and low stress to play with the kiddos.

@Gantzie Год назад

As a new player, I'm excited to see this product is actually getting a good review. The BRO jumpstart was a real disappointment from the get go and I was fearing that this one could go the same way potentially.

@breakfield1944 Год назад

Great video on jumpstart and super helpful for the deep analysis. But I'm a bit disappointed at the jab at the anime styled art. I agree with diluting the ip of magic with crossovers and skins, but one of the things I like about mtg is it's willingness to embrace alternate art styles, especially for things like variants. Unlike some secret lairs, these are even in the traditional frame and format with just another artist putting their take on classic mtg cards like any other artist would when new art is commissioned for reprints.

@supernova86 Год назад

Agree 100% He missed the mark BY FAR with the jab at anime style art.

Played some Jumpstart 2022 on Saturday after playing in my LGS's commander tourney. Can honestly say Jumpstart was the highlight of the evening :) I love this product and I'm glad Prof does too.

It's nice to see something good coming from Magic for once in 2022. Though if I'm being honest I don't knowif I want to support WotC at all anymore.

@drewwalters6330 Год назад

Thank you for the video! Your honest commentary on MTG products means that I can feel confident about buying this product. As I still consider myself a new player, especially around my other playgroup friends, the first generation of Jumpstart is how I was able to learn the basics of this great game. Not allowing my friends who have played for a long time with tweaked out decks and force a deck similar to mine, and then shuffle and play was truly a fun experience my first time around and I look forward to this product too. Thanks again and again, Professor!

@Lykrast Год назад

I looooove the anime art cards. The style doesn't go at all with normal magic, but I think they're pretty, I'm gonna try to snag a few.

@givemeabreak432 Год назад

Yeah, there's a big difference between anime styles arts, and the universe beyond stuff. Like it's just an art style that appeals to some people.

@GumLong Год назад

With Jumpstart Dominaria United and Brother's War, I was really worried the greatness product that got me and everyone who would listen to me into this game would be a one-time deal, ruined beyond recognition in future iterations. I'm very glad that didn't happen and that I can enjoy new themes and cards at christmas with my brothers!

@_DavidLeBlanc Год назад

Good to know! I sleeved and put my original jump start packs in little pack sized boxes like the one you used and my friends and I have gotten so much fun out of them!

@N64Overclocked Год назад

I don't mind the anime-styled art. It's not some other IP being shoehorned into MTG, it's just a different art style. Nothing wrong with different art styles on cards.

@kaukospots Год назад

I'm glad this is good, because all I heard for the past month or two was 'the new jumpstart isn't as good as the old one' with no context when they probably meant the BRO Jumpstart and not J22.

@MadaraStv Год назад

Damn, the "waifu" art is actually top notch! It looks like it was actually designed to fit in on a Magic card. Can't say the same about the whole Transformers thing...

Anime Karn? Waifu Spectral Sailor?? RHYSTIC STUDY REPRINT WITH NEW ART??? I don't know about the financial value of buying a box, but with bangers like these they better have been printed in enough supply.

@solod2087 Год назад

All me and my husband do is draft most of the time because we don't want to have to keep up with standard. An easy and cheap way to store packs and keep them organized is to just carefully trip the top off the foil pack and save it to put the boosters back in. Sure you have to be a bit gentle with them, but it works and its free.

@Pistolsatsean Год назад

If you get this product, DON'T play this way. Instead play how it was offered on Arena: Each player takes 3 packs and opens them, then selects one of the three. Repeat for the second half deck, shuffle those together. Once you run out of unopened packs simply obscure the unplayed opened packs and continue! This way is so much better because it includes much of the fun of drafting without the absurd time sink, and can mitigate much of bad synergy feel bads, and rewards player skill.

@kyleellis1825 Год назад

Combine Cube + Jumpstart with the children's game memory. - If doing commander, put all commanders that match the themes face down. First player flips over 3 and picks one, turning the other 2 back down. Every other flip face up is only 2 cards. Continue until all commanders picked. - MAke 10-15 card packs in a theme. Put them face down like a game of memory. First person flips over 3 and picks 1. Every other round is 2 flip overs. - Do round three with nonbasic land/colourless mana fixing. Pick 4/5/6/7/8/10 packs and grab basic land. Play the game.

@TLXakaTheLetterX Год назад

When Jumpstart first released I decided to make a Jumpstart cube. And although I have skipped Jumpstart Dominaria and Jumpstart Brothers War I had always wanted more Jumpstart. Now that this has been released (well not quite here in New Zealand yet) I'll definitely be buying these to add to my cube.

@mr.mammuthusafricanavus8299 Год назад

@cinnabarsin4288 Год назад

Glad they didn't screw this one up. My only complaint about the original Jumpstart was how many duplicates of the common packs I got in the same variation in the same box. Even wound up with two of four mythic packs (across the two boxes I bought) that were the same, which was disappointing. Hopefully will get a little better distribution on the box I'll pick up to fill out my cube storage and replace some of those straight dupes.

@thomasborders6882 Год назад

I enjoy Jumpstart immensely. I'm glad to know the 2022 edition is going to keep the spirit of the original Jumpstart alive, and I will probably end up spending a good deal of $$$ on this one, too!

@tiobridge841 Год назад

Jumpstart is such a great idea, I got a bunch of coworkers into Magic by bringing in a few packs. However, the original set has the dual advantages of no pringles but ALSO no weird anime cards, so I think I'm going to stick with that for my holiday gaming with my siblings.

Maybe not from a financial standpoint (definitely didn't pull a lot of value but didn't expect to) but my GF and I bought a box and got some needed pieces for other decks so I think it was worth the buy. Plus we pulled a Kiki so that's pretty cool. She also got the new Rat legendary that she really wanted.
