Brill, thanks for another very interesting vid. You might have to drop your day job and go full time into Magic video production to satisfy my need to watch them. ;) Looking forward to the inevitable Dark Ascension Fat Pack unboxing.

@daft990 I shall be reserving my Fat Pack at a local store this time, to avoid any disappointment or delays.

@toxicmusic79 It's amazing really, I went from not having played Magic (or even given it much thought) for 14 years to actually reserving fat packs at the local game store in a matter of weeks. In fact, I might even attend the pre-release at the end of January. :) Now I play at least one evening a week with a colleague, and we just started bringing decks with us to work playing a game or two during lunch in order to relax a bit. A lot of it was down to your fat pack unboxings. :)

@daft990 Fat packs are def my fave thing to open. I like the fact there is that instant gratification, but then you can sit down and have a good look through your pulls and the guide and dream up lots of cool interactions. I've reserved a spot at a local pre-release, as my local store is not that big. Looking forward to playing Innistrad/Dark Ascension sealed.

Dude where's Smallpox?

[toxicmusic79]

@noptic That's a good point, pox as well. Something I probably didn't explain when I started the series was that cards that affect both sides of the board, so to speak, were not in the original plan for the toolkit. However, it would be interesting to cover that at the very end of the series as well as looking at, how you protect yourself from the effect of such a card, how you deal with decks that exploit the fact you are putting stuff in their graveyard and cards outside of red or black.

@toxicmusic79

Smallpox would be a great addition to the deck but it's a bit worrysome in that, it still hurts you as well in four different areas. But Smallpox is one of those sleeper hits you drop out of nowhere when you run into a green deck that puts all their eggs in one basket. Two creatures? One's huge? Kill the small one with removal, Smallpox.

The tears flow. Also, Smallpox works well with Madness and Flashback. And that expensive new Vampire that comes back from yard.

@Back0Down Yes, very good card. It's in the next vid on 'No Hand', just waiting for the cards to arrive (only ordered them a few days ago for that part of the series)

If Your In Need Of A 2 Drop, Hymn To Tourach Would Be A Fine Addition For The "No Hand" Portion,Not To Mention Its Fairly Budget As Well.
