whispers, "Shahrazad"

If you crank it and green comes out, I’d recommend seeing a physician immediately.

capital offense sounds broken in German because we capitalize every noun. Imagine Etb beeing like "When this Creature enters the Battlefield", this is already 3 caps

"boy you could waste a lot of draft picks going deep on contraptions" yeah, imagine doing that.

Just Desserts will kill something with a 3 toughness, but not 3 1/2.

When I drafted this set I picked up FOUR copies of GO TO JAIL! My opponents loved me.

I once had a deck thats entire strategy was to make a half-squirrel half-rocket. I won the draft with it. It is soul crushing

Whenever I cranked it my opponents discarded their whole decks and left the table.

I just want Magic Word so I can whisper "It's free real estate" with meaning in a Magic game.

Sadly, Adorable Rocket could never be a card because both Adorable Kitten and Angelic Rocket are hosts.

The first unpleasant word that came to my mind for Magic Word was "moist". And lo and behold, ten seconds later... :D

Graham's at times weird but always entertaining energy combined with the zing of Matt G's captioning/editing really just makes my days brighter.

My go to whisper is 'butt-stuff' because I like a good esoteric callback.

hot take, host and augment was more fun than mutate!

Genuinely my favorite set to draft. The feeling of being a mad scientist was very real

Aww, Graham thinks I'm adorable! ❤ Oh, angelic! I guess sometimes we hear what we want to lol. These crack a packs give me life and this set was a blast! I did packwars of this set in a bar a tipped the bartender a full art island so lots of good memories!

Selfie Preservation is my favorite kind of thing the Un sets do, oddly specific requirements are nice.

when this set released and I drafted it at my LGS, we just kept the contraptions that were in our pack, as if they were tokens or lands. I am actually just now finding out that they're actually supposed to be part of the draft pool.

Chitterling Doom seems broken with the d20 Forgotten Realms cards...

Contraptions were so fun, cogmentor was a HOUSE. Loved drafting contraption piles.

Oh God this set brings back memories. I was at a national and was doing side events, specifically an Unstable draft, and I got the one mana high five everyone card. It was so much fun, however, I got into trouble when I accidentally ran into the other event areas and started screaming at people playing games for high fives...... yeah the next time the ran the draft they had to specify rules around high fives.....

[whispers] "Careless."

Man you can really tire yourself out cranking it with all these cards. Remember to pace yourself.

Engagement with content! I just finished watching the Friday Night Paper Fight with the Unsanctioned box, and it is maybe one of my favorite things I've seen with you all in Magic. Always want more. That and weird themes. I also just started playing Arena because you all rekindled my decades deceased obsession with Magic. So a sarcastic but not sarcastic thanks there. Wordy and done. Thanks for everything. Now wordier and doner.

So I vote that this series needs a name change. It can still be "Crack-A-Pack", but it should be subtitled "Graham's Relatable Insecurities".

You know what grinds my gears? contraptions

My secret word is "Mufasa" just whisper to your opponents "I killed mufasa"

Angelic Rocket came out before Meteor Golem, so it was one of the cards I kind of wished had a blackborder counterpart for a bit. Now it does!

Us? Adorable Rockets?? Why thank you Graham!!

Crabbit? No, rabb.

To be fair, most every build around red enchantment with "deal dmg when you engage with SET MECHANIC" is worse than Burning Vengeance.

Oh that is awesome for Tony. He is a great guy.

I was thinking the exact word Graham used to make himself upset. I would both use that, and also hate using it.

I whispered moist at the same time. I don't mind the word, but it's wild that it such a common go-to for uncomfortable feeling.

I cant wait for the weird coincidence where Graham thanks the Editor, but the Editor is Graham

I DID NOT KNOW THAT ABOUT THE VORACIOUS VACUUM! THAT'S SOME BRILLIANT DESIGN! :D

Magic The Gathering teaches us the benefits of cranking it.

and here when yousaid ""give someone the gears" i was thinking you were going to say "You could really Crank it"

Now I understand why I like LRR so much I too was/am "that" local newspaper person

Selfie Preservation is one of my favorites, I'll play it in a regular commander games sometimes because its just a rampant growth most of the time.

I remember when I first got into magic I went out and bought a box of unstable to build a commander deck to play with friends and I assumed that all magic cards had the silver border only to find out they aren’t magic legal. I wasted all my money on fake cards when I could of spent that money on a precon. I’m butter, but drafting the set was fun.

The editor put in some WORK on this episode. Props to them

"it's free realastate"

3:01 SUCCESS

Insufferable Siphon was my nickname in high school.

He said my name! This is so cool!

Whisper "pay their fair share" twice, that'll get them going.

Chittering Doom is even more relevant cus of AFR too.

:) Thanks for this video.

6:15 Sadly, we're probably not getting as much weird formatting for un-sets in the future, since Mark Rosewater has said it clashes too much with their current printing methodology.

fun fact "crabbit" is the scots word for annoyed or grumpy

"James has a full draft set of these [Unstable mountains]. I think I was working on one at some point, I don't know what happened to them all" did James take Graham's? :P

If u crank it more than twice your playing with yourself

Old meme but my choice for the whispered word would definitely be "Shia Labeouf."

Does anyone know what song is used in the intro for the Crack-a-Packs? Its been stuck in my head and I really want to just play it while I work.

I feel bad for pushing the like counter to 421.

Yay, love ending my Tuesday with a Crack-a-Pack! PS-FIRST!!!

ENGAGEMENT

So, what constitutes a draft set of basics, and is enough for a mono colored commander deck that only uses basics going too far?

Hey wait, why do you have the UN's table?

You're right, I am an Adorable Rocket. But so are you Graham, so are you.

I feel the thing on Success! should be named Lenny Crabbitt.

Shaharazahd- wedge and cameron

I went into Gruul Contraptions the one time I got to draft and it didn't do great. lol But I still put together an almost complete set cube cause nothing in the set really cost anything, you could get like 2 of every common, uncommon and set relevant token and 1s of rares and mythics (other than the ones where there are a bunch of variants) for under 20 bucks. It's been sitting around for a while tho. Maybe I should throw my nephews into the deep end of drafting and bring it along for a gameday. lol

Why is the crack a pack audio always blown out?

Don’t like the un-sets but always come to leave a like

Graham's draft pick is correct. Also, why hasn't *Chittering Doom* been non-silver printed yet?? Considering all the black-bordered die-rolling fun AFR gave us, *Chittering Doom* is just flat BUSTED now....

is the audio from the mic blown out some times or is it just me...?

Crack-A-Un!

I think Chittering doom is more relevant With AFR than MH2

I am commenting during the ad to help the algorithm, but I don't do the Un-sets.

How does the audio keep getting worse

Anyone know the name of the background music?

I don't think Adorable Rocket is a possible Host and Augment pairing.....

Lotta cranking and sucking on this one y’all. LOL (knee slap) …. I’ll see myself out.

Sap Sucker is already kinda dirty tbh

U know what grinds my gears u didn't say it just say it.

I think your mic gain or something is set wayyyy too high.

What is the most expensive pack they've opened on this?

Also, host/augment was cool but it was tough to decide what number of augment cards you wanted and felt bad having just them in your hand. Mutate really fixed those feel-bad moments and I hope we get to see it used again!

chittering doom got a lot better w/ AFR... its a lot easier to roll a 4 or higher on a d20

What joyless knob goblins are disliking this?

It is not directly relevant to this video, but is it possible you splendid folk could remedy the regional setting on the other channel? It seems restricted to United States viewers. Thank you very much and I am most fond of the content!

m o i s t

Now I want to have an x/4 take pi damage then be hit by a little girl (1/2 white for a half/half. The creature would have .3584… toughness left.

was buttsoft one of the words?

Love this series, but every episode has unreasonably hot audio and is very unpleasant to listen to with headphones

You should have called the video Crank a pack , name shouldn't be this stable!

If you crank it and green comes out, I’d recommend seeing a physician immediately.
