The Card Wizard cracks Shards of Alara #3

www.createspace.com This is a demonstration of the system I explain in detail in The Card Wizard’s Black Book, available from Amazon Createspace through the link you see above. That link again is: www.createspace.com This book is meant to level the playing field on the secondary market, where I feel dealers have been taking advantage of players’ lack of knowledge of the production aspects of Magic for far too long. The book includes maps for several sets, including some older sets. The book …

    Just Amazing!!!!

    Is there any feedback for the book?

  5. recardwizard says:

    Anyone who has received theirs, please feel free to post your thoughts…

    Well, but it could influence the secondary market and increase the prices of chase rares.

    And thats not a good thing for Wizards!

  7. recardwizard says:

    I’m not sure I follow you. As chase rares get more expensive, it becomes better to buy sealed product, which WOTC wants. It’s win-win for them.

    i need your hell’s thunder!

  9. zalakke says:

    aawesome,four mythic rares and only 6 packs!

  10. Justanotherc says:

    people arent going to build statues of you just because you figured out to open magic cards when you want them your just going to rip more people off DUH! and your kinda a super nerd

  11. recardwizard says:

    That WHOOOSH you heard was the joke that everybody else got as it flew directly over your head.

  12. edennista123 says:

    Wow your wrong

  13. georg3000 says:

    Well, yeah, in this unidimensional perspective you are right!
    But in the same way the Chase rares are getting more expensive, the crap rares are getting cheeper and even more crappy.
    And thats the reason why buying seald products wouldn’t become better.

    Just fore the shop owners and internet sellers whitch use your method, cause they can sell their booster packs.

    PS: Well, I’m sorry for my english, whitch is not that perfect. :)

    i got a friends of my and hes opened 5 boxes of alara and hes got the white planneswalker foils and rafiq and hes quite magic hes maybe give me hes stuff if i got it i make a video of me showing the rare and every thing :p

    Dude, i’ve been playing Magic since 1995 (4th ed. just hit the shelves) and i’ve NEVER seen anything that like that before! keep up the good work, maybe you could do a Conflux booser box?

  16. markandme123 says:

    sweet man that was great! A question – does your book cover the morning tide and eventide block booster boxes as well?

  17. recardwizard says:

    Yes and no. Morningtide and Eventide do not map — at least, not cost-effectively. I do some mathematical workups on Morningtide in the book that demonstrate how to get a better yield out of those boxes, but showing also why the map won’t apply.

    yeh man this is great nice way to beat the system hehe

  19. ZeCrazed44 says:

    oh and btw what is drafting?

  20. GrandAlchemist86 says:

    I am NEVER going to buy a pack from a store again. F*ck. That.

  21. Fatboy229 says:

    a coupple of players sitt in a circle with about 3 boosters open a booster take 1 card and pases the rest on to the next 1 and you build a deck out of the ones you get.
    hope it helped

  22. pyroticmaniac says:

    where do you say tezzeret is worth $30? i got one from 8 packs and looked it up and it looked like it was worth around 12-18 or so

  23. recardwizard says:

    Back when this video was filmed, Tez was going for around $30. Obviously now he’s not.

  24. btross55 says:

    i have the map in front of me again and it says tezzeret is 12 packs away from salvage titan. what did you do to miss tezzeret. did you go 11 or 13 packs instead of 12?

  25. Mike2C2567 says:

    with all the shards boxes you’ve opened 3/4 had tez. do a box with Elspeth, Knight-Errant. i would love to see that mythic opened, its like a $30 card!!!!!!!
