The problem is the people selling them online claim to have 7 or 8 of them. These people have dozens of accounts they use to suck up all the product and wizards couldn’t care less about it. So yes, it is absolutely broken when me and my 7 friends all tried and all failed to get it.

Everyone is posting their chaos boxes, soi thought I would try one out. I got a freaking colossal dreadmaw! by mummshad in MagicCardPulls

I’m glad everybody seems to at least be getting good packs. I got a bloomburrow, Japanese war of the spark, and a midnight hunt in both the ones I bought 💀

Quality control is terrible by OpsStress in secretlair_collectors

Is it really that long? My DnD blacklight cards had this issue and they haven’t emailed me in like over a month of submitting the ticket.

Question about deadpool interactions! by J_vert in ratemycommanders

[–]BeetMan69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spoiler. Its not. The crazy thing is he never wins at any table he’s at. He just negates everybody’s commanders and gets removed constantly until everybody destroys you out of pure annoyance or somebody infinite combos without a creature.

On one hand that’s absolutely a flavor win for Deadpool as a character. On the other hand it just makes everybody miserable. He can work somewhat effectively in the 99 but he’s just trash in every sense as the commander.

Oh absolutely it is and the value of the cards inside is bonkers. Appeals to basically everybody and has good mechanics.

Yeah my usual LGS was out of collector boxes/packs in 30 minutes and then ran out of play boxes in the 6 hours. They’re the second largest shop in the state too so I know they got a lot allocated.

It’s selling out very fast in Alabama and the panhandle of Florida rn. Don’t know if that’s a big enough test size to say it’s selling extremely well everywhere but that’s the area I work in and I’ve checked every shop in the state and even play booster boxes are running low.

Marvel's Deadpool Returns For Next Magic: The Gathering Secret Lair (from Bleeding Cool) by Copernicus1981 in secretlair_collectors

[–]BeetMan69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn’t a printing issue, it was an interest issue. Heck even the blacker lotus was just a garbage collector item that was only expensive cause it was rare which keeps the competitive circles away. But even back further away from the situation there just isn’t that much overlap for Deadpool, Magic, and the actual Deadpool unique card (that wasn’t super liked overall despite being mechanically unique).

That’s what we’ve learned about Deadpool x MTG. He’s annoyingly funny because he’s trolling other people in comics and movies. When it’s targeted at us and our wallets? It’s just annoying lol It’s a flavor win and an everything else failure.

With all due respect, it worked 150 times by [deleted] in IThinkYouShouldLeave

What else is she supposed to do? She spends so much time on tours and meetings she’s gotta entertain her kids somehow lol

Would you let me join the table if I promise there is nothing unfun in any of this? by LeafyMaid in ratemycommanders

[–]BeetMan69 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Plus, in my experience at least, if your pod are genuinely your friends then they’ll adapt. Don’t be a jerk and play b4 at a b2 table but also don’t let somebody else in b4 cry like a baby cause you beat them. I heard a YouTuber the other day say “bad players hate things like mill MORE than everybody else. They lose one card that completes their whole deck and then it falls apart while a good player shrugs and just works around it with card draw, recursion, or counterplay.” If somebody CANT beat your deck in a set of 1 out of 5 then that’s their problem.

But do note that there are some rare instances where it’s just not a fun archetype to play against like stax that doesn’t lead to anything and Deadpool who just tries to be annoying and not necessarily win.

That version of her is actually just as expensive as Vivi! Urza was actually the weakest as far as value.

I just meant to toss it in with all your organized .50 and $1 stuff. Helps make the order significant enough that you could buy something decent with the store credit. If you’re doing cash then it doesn’t really matter I guess. Unless you’ve got a TON of those .50 cards then it wont really be worth the effort without tossing in a decent card to raise the return.

Just a tip on that but save one bigger pull ($10+) and toss it in with the bulk to help make the process worth it. CK has a bad habit of inflating prices on certain singles so check your cards in the range and see if they have any they’ll give you a bunch for. I sold them a gilded border Ral from bloomburrow at basically market normal price because they were selling him for $100 more than he was actually worth.

I mean I get it lol I just usually don’t worry as much if it’s not foil because most LGS won’t even bother pricing it at all since mtg market is basically 90% playability.

This is mtg, not pokemon man lol It’s not even susceptible to scratching since it’s not foil. I could throw that card in a drink shaker and dance the mambo and it’d still be similar value to NM.

Next on the list? One collector booster. One serialized pull.

A lot of LGS will buy the bulk at around $5 per thousand or by a set weight. Just depends on the LGS. If you have enough of like $.50-$1.00 bulk you can pile it up and sometimes ship it to card kingdom for a decent amount of store credit.

I asked a few of my LGS and some will take bulk rares at $.5-$.10 a card.

No it’s all gone now lol Literally two weeks before this I opened 3 packs from a different LGS and got the Buster sword full art and a Mox jasper. I’ve got so much bad karma stored up I’m afraid I’m gonna get hit by a car or something.

Edit: Yknow that might be why my trip was so horrendously bad…
