Should I open it or should I sit on it?

I really want to open it but I don't know if I'll have a use for the cards, I'm a noob and I don't even have a deck yet but I have thousands of cards from the old expansions (Urza's Destiny to Future Sight circa), most of them are not legal in modern but I think I could still build a shitty deck with some decent cards.
>>
hold onto it if you're not planning on getting into modern anytime soon, if you are, open that shit up. even if you change your mind afterwards modern masters is a good money set.
>>
>>55058113
The fact is that I don't know if I "plan to get into modern" because I don't know what deck to build with the cards I already have.

No, I don't plan on spending €400 to build a modern deck anytime soon. But I could still spend €100 over a month or so to build a semi competitive deck I enjoy to play with (and look at, sorry).

I can post the best cards I already have, if it can help in giving an opinion, I only need some time to load them on the pc.


By the way, I payed €200 for the box.

Here's the first pic.

I'd like to play Black and maybe another color.

Don't sit on it, you dumbass. That'll bend the cards to fuck.

Jesus Christ, is this the new version of the "flip it or rip it" bullshit?

Second and last one.

Anyone have any idea about what cheap deck I can build with these rares? As I said, I'm willing to integrate if it's not too much.
>>

>But I could still spend €100 over a month or so

That means in 4-5 months you could have a €400 deck... let's say 6 months, so you can build a deck on smaller budget before that.
>>
>>55059293
That's not what I meant. I meant €100 once. I could spend more but I don't want to right now that I don't even know how to play the game.

So, got any ideas about what kind of modern deck I can build with the rares I have?
>>
>>55058079
Learn to play the game before you build anything. Most of the shit you have cant be used in modern anyway and will just be trade fodder.
>>
>>55060846
Okay but that doesn't answer the original question.

Games were made to be played, not collected sealed, sat on, and resold.
>>
>>55064039
I don't know anyone else who plays and I'd feel like shit if one of my friends pulled a Bitterblossom or a Goyf, if anything I'd sell it to a stranger.
>>55064067
Not everyone is a normal person. I am not. I get more pleasure from opening packs, collecting and sitting on the box than playing.
>>
>>55064088
You could have a draft where you pick up the cards afterwards
>>
>>55064102
With people I don't trust and never seen before and €70 cards?
You would do that?
>>
>>55058079
Opened two of these boxes before, one of them had a lot of modern staples and the other was pretty mediocre. I got them for free, I wouldn't recommend wasting money on them.
>>
>>55058498
A lot of those cards are too old for the modern format...and some in that photo aren't even rares...
>>
>>55058079
>been sitting around $250 for 2 years
yeah you should totally sit on it, just think, in ten years you could offload it for like $750! That's a 300% profit in only a DECADE! Why doesn't everyone do this?
>>
>>55064125
This is how I open boxes: invite 3 other friends. Even if they dont play magic.

Run a casual 6-pack sealed event. Help the newbies build decks: look through the cards with them and help them build a fun deck.

Provide sleeves and basic lands.

Then at the end of the day collect all the cards back. And after playing have a few beers.

It's a fun way to open product.

No point of leaving them unopened, it's a a game play it, plus the sell of fresh cards....
>>
>>55066936
Smell*
>>
>>55066332
Yeah, I said that myself. They're still worth more than 50% of rares in the average set. I simply took a pic of the best cards I had, I found other cards I had now like Urza's lands etc.
>>55066471
Dude I paid €200 just the other day.
>>55066742
Damn, I wish I had a friend like you, that seems like a good night.
>>
>>55066471
Also Magic cards are NOT money, it's easier to sell a sealed box than singles, especially shitty ones.
