  • Damn fun to watch but i feel sry for the bad pack

  • Gloves...

  • Seeing starters like that is what's keeping me from buying a beta or alpha starter. Totally understandable that your going to get cards that are meh, but all of that land taking up your uncommon spots is just annoying.

  • OUCH

  • 3 guys hadnt a knive big enough to open this

  • it's a FORK LOL

  • where'd you guys find this sealed starter?

  • @zkanksta1 - Fly got it on ebay. Lucky bid, I suppose. :)

  • crappy booster

  • Fun, fun, fun watching!! :-) Keep it up!

  • Hey can someone tell me what starter decks to buy I'm just starting to play again and I'm not familier with any thing right now

  • wow.. what a rush.. now I can feel good about keeping mine wrapped up. THANKS!

    

  • I remember playing and looking over to 4-5 boxes of arabian nights open and we used to just take out boosters for drafts. I opened alot of beta starters and never (myself) got any really good rares. In unlimited though i had a power 9 set that would easily be 9.5, I sold the timetwister.timewalk and ancestral recall fpr around a 100 bucks lol.... Zzzz god i love this game. Good stuff and too bad you did get your cards you wanted.

  • so it's basically a large booster. is this correct? and how much did it cost originally and how much did you get it for??

  • there cards right?

  • that was awful. at least you can sell the beta lands. I would buy them

    

  • I mean, I used to play drafts where everyone could reach into a box for lands and most all of them were beta.

  • That was a terrible pack. Absolutely terrible.

  • ur a giccc

  • Comment removed

  • They reprinted fork in m11 with a different name

  • lol 2:17 swaaamp

  • I'll buy one of each land off you! I'm serious.

  • i am new to magic i like the starter decks, and the booster boxes or just boxes (idk the term for them) looks more interesting, i am not sure if i will play magic but it's interesting so i subbed :)

  • what a waste of time

  • Well, not even a p9 (you said a hundred times 7,99$ so i guess 800-900 dollars, i heard bad), but maybe a beta power or another fine piece(s).

    De gustibus, I guess.

  • How to waste a shitton of money.

    This said by a Mtg player, not a random hater.

    You could have bought 2 p9s instead of that shit with that money.

  • i would have worn medical gloves opening a vintage btg item like that!! but that would be worth the money to open a beta starter just for the experiance.

  • AHHH Ross , again you make me so jealous. =[

  • GREAT VIDEO

  • u just lost lot of money...

  • it's boring

  • Think you can get at least 150.00 for the mint condition Fork. I, myself, would be putting it right in my binder to avoid any damage.

  • that must be really intense opening that

  • Nice cold steel recon 1. You sound like Bob from Knivestown.

  • That was probably the worst beta starter I have ever seen cracked...

    I used to know a guy who got a case of beta for basically nothing from someone who didn't know better back in like 1995-1996 who cracked most of the packs a few years ago.

  • Lol Deathlace... im sorry

  • Huge fan of Regrowth, but it's still not quite as exciting as you guys probably wanted. Still, all those cards look gorgeous, and I wouldn't mind owning even the lands.

  • it´s bored

  • Opened a german magic beta starter deck, lately. I hadn't so much luck like you.

  • i want the bear plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

  • Yeah, the total opens were worth around 400 bucks, but goddamn, opening a beta starter must have felt like throwing down a huge bet at a casino.

    Sorry it didn't turn out better for you, but hell if it wasn't fun to watch.

  • oh man... that was pretty much the worst pack ever :(

    fork is cool but other than that meh

  • um, guys how rare and valuable are those black lotuses you were talking bout cos my cousin adam has one of those :S?

  • Depends on the condition and the serie...Mint (perfect condition) black lotus from beta serie is worth between 2500 and 3000$....

  • it depends on what set its from but they can get into the thousands easily

  • O_O... wow

  • idk bout u but i love the smell ov new cards

  • ME TO! I LOVE IT!!

  • lol

  • yea me too lol

  • @vosebroy2 me too!!

  • jajajajjaja

  • Was not even close to making money back. The fork was the best card worth about 200 or so.

    The deck alone cost 900-1000 in cash.

  • About 12 years ago (around 4th/5th) I had purchased TWO Beta Starter decks for $150/ea. I intended on opening one and keeping the other as a collectors item. I opened up the first starter deck and my two rares were....TWO ISLANDS! Completely disappointed I had to open the other one. In that one I got a Granite Gargoyle and an Ankh of Mishra, but they were ALPHA. This was back when Alpha was worth less than Beta due to them not being legal in competitive play.

  • fck me! i gave a bunch of cards away when i was a kind cuz i didnt no how to play and it was old, now i remember that i had a couple of lands that look like that arg, who noes what there might be.

  • how much is one of these ? cus a mint form alone is like 140 150 $

  • i have a ton of those land cards they arent worth much anymore tho are they? what is the beta logo cause i suppose they could just be the same art used in a later expansion.

  • beta has no logo and those basic lands are worth around 5$ or something like that...

  • wth?

    lands are only 10 cents worth...

  • But they're BETA lands

  • he said basic lands ;)

  • see, here's where you show you haven't done any research.

    beta basic lands are worth $5 because they're old, black border, and rare.

  • yea.. ure right like its been said like 5 bucks. mint even more. he was proberly thinking about Unlimited lands they have the same ''Big letters'' but no black border and are worth like 10 20 cents

  • I remember opening these like they were nothing. Oh how I should have bought all the booster boxes I could find....

  • great vid subscribing

  • He said, "Not even something like Invisibility or False Orders or whatever?"...but he did get an Invisibility. Oh well. Probably too dissapointed in the rares and uncommons to notice. lol

  • i do give you guys huge props for this. Thanx for keeping it real.  You guys are doing it right.

    Thanx for the excellent video!!!!

  • the joy is opening and reliving the golden age of magic not getting a lotus. Getting an expensive of card would be great but you should be in it for the love of the era. Me and friend started a magic crew called BBC Black Border Click, we only play with old cards and enjoy it greatly. THis past X-mas we played revised zen it was a treat in deed but this X-mas will be playing with unlimited starter zen we play tthe cards for ante, blind zen, no peeking and we play them with out sleeves.

  • without sleeves is just reckless

  • But the excitement was well worth it... since we were playing blind zen for ante. We couldnt look thru the starter decks to even see what was in the decks, so we had NO idea what we were playing with or what our ante was. Ya gotta play for the thrill

  • Ouch! unlucky opening this starter deck, but FORK still awesome, brand new cards from this edition ROX a lot ;)

  • wow, that was fairly awful, dems the breaks.

  • Open more beta please.....

  • Very expensive FORK but still awesome video!

  • ownd

  • gem mint beta lands must have atleast some kind of decent pricetag.

  • 20 my ass. there like 5 tops.

  • actually, i was right. the arabian nights mountains are worth 20 bucks. go do more research, kid.

  • there wernt supposed to be any lands in arabian nights, but they accidentaly printed mountains with the arabian nights expansion symbol, those mountains go for 20$.

  • I like the old Unholy Strength over the new one.

  • OH ... MY .... GOD!!!!! beta :D

  • Kudos for having the nads to open a $750 deck of cards. Pulling a lace has always been my fear if I ever did this (which I'm sure I won't, unless that great garage sale ever materializes).

  • dude, I am in AWE!! Did you save this starter deck or buy it?

  • That Fork must have gotten you a lot.

  • That sucks that Wizards used to put lands on the uncommon sheets :(

  • Terrible starter, but great fun to watch. I would like to see more vintage breaks!
