Prof, that outro was genuinely one of the best, most savage and erudite things I've ever watched on RU-vid. For some reason the outro where you just shuffled/sleeved cards and this were two of the best things you've ever done. I think it's a huge testament to the aura and depth of the Prof persona that you can just sit there, and it feels intensely personal and intimate. Brian, thanks for sharing the Prof with us and caring enough about MTG to tell it as it really is.

@MidgarMerc 3 года назад

While not entirely wrong the SL cards are only legal in vintage (or us it legacy?) And commander. So far the only standard legal card to be banned in either of those formats is Lurrus in vintage and Lutri in commander.

Sorry to hear that man. It hasn't always been like this. Even if this trend continues you can still jam games with friends and have a good time though (and if you get priced out of magic, you can always proxy cards. 100% the best way to play with expensive cards you want to try.)

@aaronnaves7372 3 года назад

Prof! Serious question: How can/should I support my LGS now that I'm disinclined to purchase newer sealed products? My LGS is a one man operation that allowed magic to flourish in my area. He's fair and has even been giving out older surplus promos that he has kicking around from past events to make up for the lack of rewards/event support from wotc. He even refuses to sell older promos that can be upwards of $20 just on principle, because they were always intended to be free. If someone sells a promo to him, he'll even add it to the pool of cards to give out. He's a good guy and I don't want to lose him. He also doesn't believe me at all when I tell him what's happening in the player base might affect him/is affecting him. He just doesn't see it and has complete faith in WORD. I don't want to pick up a Different hobby and I just don't know what to do for him. This is someone who has facilitated casual play and competitive play for his customers. Using his store is 100% free. He opens at 12pm and plans on closing 8pm, but will stay open as long as players need. The D&D players take a long time to finish up and he'll stay open to 2am for them, even though he doesn't make money from them. Please like my comment so Proc will see. I don't want to see LGS suffer for wotc's sins.

The last bit really speaks to me. Me and my wife have "pocket money" each month, about $60, I used to spend that on standard... then about a year ago I stopped playing standard, bought a pauper deck IRL and a few on MTGO. With all the money I've saved, by not playing standard, I managed to upgrade my old PC. Every so often, I have a sneaky peak on standard, hoping it's recovered! Love the game, just hate what they've done to it.

@Ray-sc2gw 3 года назад

play penny dreadful on MTGO! it's awesome and ridiculously cheap (i don't know how big the community is but i think it's sizeable

@aaronsewell195 3 года назад

@Steven Cairns I feel you, I wanted to get back into standard and MTGA has allowed me but its so bad right now. I hope this covid ends soon so I can go back to EDH.

You should try modern boardgames. They are way better than magic, they give you more and ask you for way less than Magic does

Many Magic the Gathering players ask the question: "how do I get 10 people to play Among Us with me?"

@keitarosempai9594 3 года назад

That's a really good question, taking into account you would be left out since Among Us isn't a 11 players game. Also another game focused on the fun for the players, no cards tho

I started watching you years ago when you were just rating card sleeves and deck boxes. Your channel grew past that into something much greater over the years. I no longer come here just for the Magic. I come here for you. So if you need to take a break and focus on other games, I will be here for that as well. And I know I am not alone in feeling that way. We love you.

It feels bad seeing a lot of my favorite magic content creators so hurt by how the magic community is treated by Wizards. I love your content and will say if you played other board games I would totally watch. I’m getting to the point where I want to support Wizards by buying magic cards. Anyways love you Prof and by the way there is a great drafting card game called Nevermore that you should check out! It has tons of play ability and you can have up to 6 people play at once! It’s super fun!

You helped me grow to love this game 4 years ago and it breaks my heart to see how much Wizards doesn't give a shit. I just want you to know we are here for you and we love you.

@angrytomasz 3 года назад

I've actually taken you up on that recommendation previously Prof, and legends of runtera is actually a superb and phenomenal game. So much so that I've actually decided to uninstall magic arena. It's a night and day difference. of course I'll still play paper magic because I have cards that are worth something but I don't think I'm ever going back to any form of online magic ever again, Wizards is simply too greedy.

@kwads1909 3 года назад

I only find myself enjoying limited on arena, and I have to grind in formats I care much less about to build up enough coins or gems to get another game in. In legends of runeterra, the number of times I can play expeditions (sort of a mix between sealed and draft in LoR) seem to be endless. It’s wonderful.

@fossilfirebird5093 3 года назад

Which actually highlights another reason I'm glad I gave up the game. Simply put, the investments are artificially inflated, and form a paywall that keeps a lot of people out. How much bigger would the game be if the barrier to entry was not so high?

@reikomcdouble3017 3 года назад

Fossil Firebird actually the paywall is very small. You can have a fun time playing the game with a group of friends for under 25 each and never have to pay a dime again. Your cost comes from competitive play or the need to have the best deck to beat your friends or competitors. Cost also comes from collecting which is in every single successful game. Part of the fun is to collect them all. The more unique and hard to get you make it the more customers will buy to get it. You do not have to be a collector to be a casual player. I all the time build budget decks that are competitive for folks that cost 10-20 dollars. Most play groups I know well also change decks with each other or let you use a deck. I have 150 comander decks. I’m always loaning one out. Also once you build a comander deck you never have to update it like you do standard when rotation hits. Most my decks was made over 10 years ago.
