Bundle of 1 Strixhaven MTG Set Booster + Curriculum of Chaos (D&D/MTG Adventure Book)

I got cards from previous Magic sets in the mail. The first and last cards in the picture are from the proper deck - Strixhaven is a town in the German town of Strixhaven The cards in the gaps are from previous sets. Aside from the cards with the pictures from other sets, I received other cards. This, combined with the fact that the booster packs were very loosely sealed, led me to believe that they had been opened and resealed. I'm not happy at all.

On its own, it's not a bad product, but it came in a bag (rather than a cardboard box like most other sellers) and the card box was completely destroyed. I didn't notice any significant damage to the cards when I opened them, but I expect some.

If you just want to play Magic the Gathering, especially standard, and don't care about "the collectors market," this box (i. e. At least (and possibly especially) with Strixhaven, the set booster pack) isn't for you. The reason for this is straightforward: Every booster pack product has a slot system that determines how many cards of each rarity are included. The "best cards" tend to be in the mythic/rare/uncommon subsets, with mythic/rare/uncommon being the most common. br>br>The issue with Strixhaven in particular is that STX booster packs may contain a number of cards you don't want. br>br>While the "magic archive" cards aren't part of Strixhaven and aren't necessarily part of standard, there's a good chance you'll get multiple archive cards per set booster, and while they're great for non-standard play, they're not necessarily good for standard play. You must check each card to see if it is legal in standard formats like modern, legacy, and so on. br>br>And then there's an inexplicably small chance that the mythic rare slot will contain a magic archive card in Japanese — don't get me wrong, I think it's great that MTG is translated into so many languages; I have nothing against Japan, its people, or its language; and the Japanese cards have special Japanese art history type designs — the cards I got are beautiful. br>br>However, because I can't read them, the 3 or 4 I received felt a little pointless, and those packs didn't include an English MR card, so it didn't feel like I got a full booster pack. I also looked up their resale value, and while they weren't worthless, they only had a maximum resale value of one or two dollars, so it wasn't worth the effort to sell them. They appear to be in good condition on my shelf. br>br>However, after opening the booster pack box, I immediately regretted not purchasing draft boosters - I didn't get any really exciting magic archive cards, and the relatively small number of good cards I got (I got way more good cards from a kaldheim set booster box that I split with someone, which should tell you something)br>br>I realize there's a random chance aspect to this, but I believe it's also due to the Strixhaven set being a little short on cards overall (even though there are some good ones) and the watered down nature of how many ST.

br>Good product, but shipping is a pain. I ordered two boxes and received only one. The first box was fine; however, the second box had been battered to death, and when I opened the packs, I discovered bent cards.

It's fun to draw cards from the list, and there's another 'list' in this set, a lottery-style list. That has a certain amount of worth. br>br>However, none of this matters if Amazon sends your package in a plastic bag (literally no thicker than a trash bag) and all of your cards are bent, as they were for my order. They're not going to be worth anything! Take note of this. br>br>Amazon, ship potentially valuable items in appropriate packaging!.

I was underwhelmed by the set, and I despise the way Wizards handles these boxes. The majority of the cards I pulled were junk filler. I realize it's luck of the draw, but after seeing so many box openings, I'm guessing your worth will be in the $50-$100 range. It's in the 80s, which is terrible for the price. This is the set that, without a doubt, has made me lose interest in magic. It appeared to be going to be a lot of fun. I ended up with two of the same mythic, and they weren't particularly strong mythics. Basically, if you don't pull the demonic tutor, you'll be out of luck.

This was my first time purchasing booster boxes for a set. I wasn't impressed, and I believe a draft booster box provides comparable value. Only if you want the art cards and more foils is there an exception. This is where the majority of your funds are spent. If the art cards and foils appeal to you, go ahead and order it. If I really want any of the cards on the list, I'll go out and buy singles. br>br>I, for one, am unconcerned about the foils and prefer the regular cards' appearance. The art cards are nice to look at, but I don't think I'll use them. In the future, if I can, I'll stick to draft boosters. Buying draft boxes provides me with an equal amount of value and allows me to play in a different format. I also make Pauper decks out of the filler cards for friends and family who aren't familiar with Magic. This way, everyone can play, and I won't have to worry about my expensive cards getting damaged.

My STX set boosters have been a big hit. In terms of card level quality control, I was pleasantly surprised to see that the foil cards had improved. Perhaps I struck it rich? The STX theme, as well as the mystical archive cards, are both appealing. The only thing that bothered me was Amazon's decision to ship my expensive order in soft packaging. Please refrain from doing so.
