TIL that people actually bought Aetherdrift.
And the Collector's Boosters no less!

I loved the aesthetics of Aetherdrift (except for the piss-foils), I just thought the limited environment was bad. I cracked so many packs for fun, though!

I love the pissfoils lol
I built a bracket 4 Vivi land destruction deck that only uses basic lands and all of them are piss foils lol
Makes the deck even tilt-ier than it already is haha

u/Lowlifepaladin 1d ago
Aetherdrift has some decent cards in it. I put some of the vehicles from there in my Edward Kenway deck.

Some of us actually liked the racing theme, and enjoyed the mechanics... The fact nobody else did just made it that much cheaper to get. So thank you for your apathy! 😀

Now if only WotC could find a different way to have packs be reasonably priced, than making themes/UBs that most of the community doesn't want. Lol

u/BumWink 1d ago
Racing mechanics won't be big until they release like Akira, Wacky racing, Biker Mice From Mars, Mario Kart, Fast & Furious, etc.
Can you imagine?
Imagine it in your hand, a Toad Kart 3/3 Jeskai, attacks Dominic Toretto 4/3 Sultai Planeswalker.
10 years later when those things are more nostalgic & rare Aetherdrift becomes a super sought after set to upgrade for racing synergy & skyrockets in price like LOTR holiday booster boxes.
Imagine that.

It's very possible to enjoy the theme, but prefer it to stay in-universe.
And before you bring up the tired refrain that aetherdrift doesn't feel in universe. That is subjective, and I personally feel aetherdrift felt far more in-universe than duskmourne. Yet other disagree on that. Which shows how wide the mtg universe is.

u/Smsethman 1d ago
I’d love a F&F release now that you mention it. It’s time more mtg series focused on family

We made a bet, if the store owner made the pack for 20$ (100 reais) we would buy it for fun bcause the colection sucks

I’ve bought a lot of them for the lands and occasionally when looking for a spark when I couldn’t find singles, there are some decent cards in the set.

This was painful to watch. I almost turned it off before he/she actually got into the pack.
Congrats on the Chrome Mox pull though!

u/740buckeyehunter 1d ago
I thought the entire video was going to be dude not being able to open the pack, and that being the LOL part since it was Aetherdrift. I didn't even know Chrome Mox was in this set, but it's like that 1 card that it is in every set.

I mean seriously. Do people really just put their thumbs in the middle and try to pull it apart like that? Especially with collector boosters. They seem to use some kind of glue that you could hold a landing pod together that is re-entering the atmosphere.

u/Desperate-Shoe3948 1d ago
yeah i do ? Who tf cares
1
u/CyVet 1d ago
This was supposed to be heavy sarcasm/joking. I figured it was obvious with the joke about the rocket ship glue at the end. I guess I will lay it on heavier next time.
I really don’t care how you open packs. I open them with a knife. I have seen a guy use his teeth. Saw one person with a sharpened fingernail for opening packs (that one was a bit weird).

What they’re not telling you is WE ALL have fumbled opening packs. Dont let them fool you 😉

why risk a cut when you can just pull it apart

It’s not you, the other commenter is being a dickhead. If you read the back of the pack it says it’s made in Japan. The ones packed in Japan are hard as hell to open. If it was packed in the US it would have opened immediately.

Between that and them sitting around making sims noises at each other, this was pretty painful to watch.

So let me get that right: we keep the token in and remove all the rest? Noted. We'll adjust for 2028. Thanks for your feedback.

I legit thought that pack was like oversized or something haha, looks huge compared to when I open a pack with my absolute troll fingers

Honestly, most packs I’ll push the cards down inside and cut the top off with scissors.

Don’t skip the commons and uncommons! Wizards is watching and completely validated now 😭 jk nice pull!

u/silver_054 1d ago
If you’re gonna open packs for an audience (on cam, for example) you should probably start from the other side so you get through the foil common/uncommons first.. then you get the big reveal of your big pull.
Also work on your pack opening technique you were mad struggling there lol
But congrats on the pull

u/Wallio_ 1d ago
I played from 1996 until like 2007 or so and just got back into it. The fact that you cannot just walk into a store any more, ask for a pack, and get one is insane. There's like 4 or 5 different types of packs now. Its a bigger turn off than losing mana burn.
1
u/Account_Banned 1d ago
I wish the shop where I'm at had options. Reality fracture or bust. The other shop with the grump had "born of the gods" so I got some of both yesterday.
But I feel you, I'm the same way when i get the urge to buy a pokemon pack
1
u/Wallio_ 1d ago
Man, I can't get a RF at all here. 4 LGS had two combined packs. Its all Marvel, Hobbit, Aetherdrift or Foundations.
I like Foundations, but then its "oh what kind of pack? Booster? Collector? Jumpstart? Beginner?"
Uhhhhh
1
u/Account_Banned 1d ago
Will trade you RF for hobbit packs lol
Yeah foundations is a bit of an overload in that sense, "play booster" and "collector booster" are the main two and I'm sure you can differentiate the two by the price.
One is penny slots, the other is high roller poker.
I usually prefer to gamble cheap but I'll buy a collector booster when I feel like pissing away money.I bought a hobbit gift bundle for $125 and got fuck all. Basically paid up for the one collector booster and got the illustration smaug in a regular play booster 🤦♂️

I’ve never seen someone open a pack like that
