The Biggest Magic: The Gathering Ripoff! 

Already did, loved it 👍

It was amazing deck tech!

Great awareness to stop this garbage from getting on the shelves.

Weird I did get a notification of it and loved it.

I watch all your videos, they always pop up on my RU-vid home page because I'm subscribed, and have in the past frequently viewed your fine fine (not slurryish at all) videos.

mono-land wins

Gotta have 0/2 reach islands practically required for meta decks nowadays

The real mvp

Thanks for the info - I was going to hint that Alpha Investments May somehow be involved ( over last few years they've outright scooped up stores or stashes of bulk cases of MTG and other CCG 's )

That's the same company that distributed the Happy Happy Go Fun Fun back in April. (Which you may recall had Lathliss + 3 packs, many of which were Apocaylpse, and sold for $12. The fact that they did both that which was decent value and this which is garbage makes me think they don't even have a clue what they're selling.

You can always google them and leave a bad review.

I mean they are literally selling free products for new players at a premium.

100% true. This is why Wizards has to get involved

I'm not sure MTG is wearable art? I'm picking you mean't consumers??? :-P

@@DANNY35870 At this level Hasbro should step up, and make sure that they are taking care to protect their brand integrity.

honestly, yes, as someone who doesn't play at all and doesn't know anything about the game (don't ask me what I'm doing here watching the video, apparently it went from D&D lore, to MTG lore, to rule explanations to this while I was cleaning the kitchen. Came back to this.) I might have bought it for friends who play...it just...looks like a lot of cards, while booster packs always look so tiny. I'd assume that if it's a real product Wizards of the coast put out, it can't be that bad. Well, now I know. (And knowing is half the battle!)

Completely agree. It makes me sick to think that someone would spend $30 on this for someone they love only for that person to be put in the awkward position of having to tell them that they've been sold near worthless shite

He got screwed

this is entirely true

Actually Walmart has a good one for twenty bucks with six random packs from magic history and a 25 one that has five but the fifth one has either a ultimate master or ionic master or master 25 I actually buy those for drafting with my friends and have actually some good cards.the one Prof covered is crap but look up MTG unsealed and he actually opens the one I am talking about.

@@XCodes That's what I said xD

@@XCodes so let's do the math then. In my legs I go to the sell all recent packs for 4.99 and ultimate master for 15.99 so if I were to buy the packs from the lgs I would pay 34.96 not including tax when I can buy the chaos draft from Walmart for 24.99 tell which one is a scam?

I check it just to laugh at the product

The ONLY reasonable excuse to check the MtG section of a big box store is when the Commander decks come out, they usually don't weight the prices based on contents, so you can find them at MSRP if you're lucky/fast. That's it. That's the only reason.

^^^THIS^^^

Or pay 11 less dollars and get an actual Deckbuilders Toolkit, which I personally think isn't the worst product out there for newer players (i actually got a second to complete the sets of dual lands). And then buy 2 more packs if you insist on spending that 11 bucks on magic product, or get some lunch !

@@Arghore i actually buy deckbuilders toolkits every time a new one comes out, i genuinely think theyre worth the money to a degree, but it depends on what exactly is in them, and that varies a lot.

@@heliosretro4545 Every time would be a bit to much for my taste, but i do think starting players can't do much wrong by buying two of them at the start of their collection. First off the boxes are great. The lands are also mighty fine (because those can actually be a bit hard to come by if you assume buying packs is how you start a deck). Also 4x evolving wilds or equivalent, and the tapped dual lands. Which make two color budget decks work. And all of those easily make their way into more budget EDH decks. Also think that for regular (non core) sets, there is generally a 'shell' of cards in them that coincide with the most obvious draft synergies, especially when combined with a draft one can end up with a deck that at least functions on synergy level. Where the power level easily exceeds planeswalker decks, while obviously not being competitive. BUT, if you have (a) friend(s) to play with, and they all get a starter kit, combined with the free decks, perhaps do a draft or pre-release in a shop. There can be a fairly wide variety (say up to 5 different styles) of decks emerging from it, that are fun to play against each other.

Sixty. Bucks. For you, my friends.

@@TolarianCommunityCollege Hope you kept the receipt on this one.

Or.... it could be slurry!

I got a boat in mine 😘

Could be contagious 🤔

i thought we agreed on mystery=garbage so we called it garbage box

Or a boat!!

*RULE OF THUMB: Don't buy anything from Target or Walmart

The three dollar packs aren't that bad if you can tell what set they are coming from. They are usually planeswalker decks without the planeswalker.

@@jgtogi6839 Which is just trash...

yeahand id say thats where a pretty high perventage of the sales come from some family member who doesnt know better thinks itll be something nice

Imagine buying derivatives from wall st then They are all scams

Right my frist thought was i hope my wife never wastes her money on this slurry

There is a god? :-o

Missed the apostrophe, and thought it was pluralized. Regardless, Hazoret would be pleased.

@@saaiemedia726 There may or may not be several. I fancy Algorythoes my patron god. Praise Algor.

@@nomadrl91x Well for how many times Hazoret ended my game with a loss back when it was in Standard I give her a lot of respect hehe.

Saaie Media he buys the bad ones so we can get commander decks in ours ;) truly gods work

Come on, even Rudy's Greed Monster isn't this greedy.

🤣

Weak

i lol'd

Same 😂

Diddo.

Only Hades lol,

I laughed too hard at this.

Lols hahaha

He blatantly tells you its a third of the shelf value at absolute best several times.

@@accelerator1666 pretty sure the commenter is joking

@@voltcorp oh. guess im gonna be posted on r/whoosh now.

I think he kinda likes it

But you could get an atraxa deck you could get a black lotus

I feel like calling this a fail is an insult to the actual failures

@CG John Honestly, I think Prof's analysis is correct as one can get. No grade, just straight expulsion. BLAM DAT SHIT

Luke Richey this product gave me two old duel decks that actually beat my friends sometime.

@@charleslegreatthegarbagemo7202 yeah, so your friends suck Sorry EDIT:Just noticed that this could be a joke, if so I woosh myself

I'm gonna open these until I get a playset of Karn, Scion of Urza!

Wait, are you saying it could be one of the Power Nine? That's a deal!!

@@luizhenriquesuperti8428 yeah, you have about 0% chance of that Maybe a little less

Not sure why anyone shops at Target or CVS or Walgreens...most of the shit there is twice or triple the price elsewhere...

You were able to see almost all the boosters into the hapy go fun fun, so it wasn't similar to this or "mistery" shit

I've never been able to find those

I found them at my friends local target, but not mine

@@Warlothar actually the same company packaged both the happy go fun and this slurry

hOw DiD i GeT hErE ? I bought only one of these things, and I got two old duel decks that actually beat some of my friends in battles with their decks cause I was always the one under the radar.

I think they're from the ripoff of a beginner product that WotC put out that was 2 sample decks and 2 spindowns. I think The Prof reviewed it. Anyway, these boxes are repackaging of product that head damaged packaging or was otherwise unsold, so it's random bits of stuff and the least popular items are this the most common.

I had a mom ask me about that. I directed her to a product that was actually worth something at the market price at that time (Commander 2018). She was pretty thankful that it was a value product.

Fucking apparently as these existed when I started back in New Phyrexia (I swear the one I bought felt worth it).

Logos are for brand recognition. If you have no intention of people wanting to come back to you, why bother?

@@tyrannochu i got one last year with an og Innistrad and Avacyn Restored intro packs which was sweet but theyve crapped out now

I recently spent around $280 AUD on a box and got roughly $23 AUD worth of mythics. That was a lesson I will not soon forget.

I only buy packs from Local Game Stores, and only one at a time because I never leave a game store without buying at least one thing there and usually packs are the most convenient thing to buy.

It really wasn't a similar product. For starters it was at Walmart. It was 230+ cards packaged in a sturdy acrylic box and it was just loose enough for you to peek inside because they were aware of what they were selling and wanted to clearance that shit, not rip you off. It was also almost three years ago. The clearance items are gone. All that's left is bad intentions and people who buy shit you get for free because they think themselves to smart to get got.

same, i got a Derevi commander deck a coupleyears ago, but now its all trash and drivel free packs and basic lands only :(

Freylease for me

Oloro and Sek'kuar. I got one for me and one for a friend. It was actually a good night.

Slurry: Hold my mana........

My friend got something good in 2017. Haven't seen anything good since then. Just halves of blessed vs cursed

The second products to be expelled

Funniest comment I've read in a while. You made my day

This so funny, I am dying of laughter.
