This is the best review for this deckbox on youtube. APS was boring, and did little to no research on the product, and conducted himself in a way that shows that he doesn't really care either way and had no personality, and the other 2 were done on really terrible cameras and was doing a first impressions review rather than a review which is what you did. It's clear that you took the time, and it's also clear that you're a true fan of the professor, his product, and you rated it as unbiased as you could. Is it the perfect deckbox? It seems like it's the closest and most feasible deckbox for commander players which is where this product was targeted towards. Yes I can also put my yugioh, digimon, pokemon, and other trading card game decks into the box, but he made this for the magic audience who play commander primarily because that's the professors favorite type of game in magic, and he wanted a deck box that was purpose built for people who play commander. You're either stuffing the boxes and having to carry other product to put the dice, tokens, sideboard, and other things that you will need at a base level to play commander. Yes I can just circumvent that myself but he wanted an all in one package, and to do that with minimal space but more than enough to secure a complete commander deck that looks incredibly attractive is a win. Not only did he make this deckbox for honestly a really cheap price, but he did it with one of the most reputable companies in the industry to forge them for him. Not only that but he got the best designer in all of TCG accessories to help him with the box and multiple revisions. The guy in question had worked on all the top level products we love today, and he knows the types of materials would work best. At a base level this deck box is as good as the competition with all of those things sorted out. It wouldn't make sense for a company like Game Genic and the designer of his calibur to produce anything less than a deckbox that already exist on the market. For that reason I can only see it being as low as the best deck box but for commander specifically, this is the best deck box. I'm personally keeping mines for the collection to have a history in trading card games where a youtuber who has been grading products and is the known best person at it, is the most respected gets the opportunity to make his own deck box with things that he wished were there, with the most prestigious designer in TCG history, and a top level company, I feel that objectively this is one of the highest quality deck boxes we will have for a very long time. I'm not even sure how you can progress this deckbox further than what it is. It's so well optimized, and it feels that everything that I needed was thought out and things that I didn't know I needed were also thought out. The professor is someone who truly respects card games and loves them dearly even though MTG is destroying its own fanbase. He could easily continue this relationship with Game Genic and make a lot more money, but what he wants is a collectors piece for those who believed in this project, and I appreciate him for it. It's because of things like this that make this an easy purchase. I purchased 5 deckboxes and I wish I could've bought more. I think I'm missing one of the 133+ exclusives but I have everything but the early bird box. I can't wait to see the hand signed box. This will be my black lotus. I would accept a silly offer to take it off my hands but I think I'm going to end up keeping this box until I go in the grave. 10/10 Review

I love this product and I use it every week. I however have some faults with the product. If you have a large collection of decks that you like to transport every week using multiple of these boxes is inconvenient. The box is also quite space intensive in your bag which can make it hard to fit other stuff along side it. Despite these things this box feels amazing to use and I never leave home without it so its still a 5/5 for me 👍

First time seeing you channel and its amusing bc my first thought when i saw the deckboxes was that it would be great for draft and i dont remember seeing many people saying the same thing when it launched. I usually go to draft directly from work and I dont like the idea of leaving my stuff in my car or bringing all my stuff into work to leave in a locker since Ive been using an arkhive for the past couple years and my bag ends up taking a fair bit of space. Being able to bring a smaller box that can hold a commander deck to play before draft or inbetween rounds and having all of my draft stuff with me sounded really nice and i can bring it into work a lot easier, ironically still planning to use the Arkhive for playmats but i dont mind leaving that in my car if i have to. Worked ok the other week, still need to condense down some of the stuff im bringing with me, for example i had too much commander stuff to fit my draft sb but having everything together in one place and not taking up too much table space is really nice

So I know I'm a bit late to this, as I have just received my box, but I had two somewhat nitpicky things to add. 1st: the cover won't stay on if you peel up one side of it and bend it over the box to open it. The magnets aren't strong enough to allow the cover to flip open like this without falling off. Not a big deal but worth knowing. 2nd: The expandable dividers scrape against the bottom of the boxes' material when squished/expanded while sitting in the deck compartment. I'm not sure how durable the lining material is, but I suspect it won't hold up to fairly hard plastic scraping it over time.
@beyondthedeckbox

These are really good points. I suspect the magnet bit is because they don't want to get magnets that are too strong as it could cause other issues. Probably was a compromise. And I will be interested to see how long the lining lasts myself.

I like to do so with bigger boxes, like the Arkhive 800+ or the Omnihive. Great way to put all your commander decks together, or your Pioneer decks, etc. For a smaller box like this I would be less likely. But I could see a scenario of throwing a few 60+ boulders in this box if I was going to an Oathbreaker night or something like that. But so far, I've mainly used this with cards and no boxes.

I dropped a full box with loose cards, dice, and tokens; it hit the sidewalk HARD. The corner was a little dinged up, but the box didn't fling open to scatter my cards, tokens, and dice into the street. As far as a deck box goes, I am quite happy with owning a handful of these.

That's really good to hear! (How well the box held up, not the dropping part. I'm sorry that happened.) It's good to know it holds up like that. Thanks!
This is the best review for this deckbox on youtube. APS was boring, and did little to no research on the product, and conducted himself in a way that shows that he doesn't really care either way and had no personality, and the other 2 were done on really terrible cameras and was doing a first impressions review rather than a review which is what you did. It's clear that you took the time, and it's also clear that you're a true fan of the professor, his product, and you rated it as unbiased as you could. Is it the perfect deckbox? It seems like it's the closest and most feasible deckbox for commander players which is where this product was targeted towards. Yes I can also put my yugioh, digimon, pokemon, and other trading card game decks into the box, but he made this for the magic audience who play commander primarily because that's the professors favorite type of game in magic, and he wanted a deck box that was purpose built for people who play commander. You're either stuffing the boxes and having to carry other product to put the dice, tokens, sideboard, and other things that you will need at a base level to play commander. Yes I can just circumvent that myself but he wanted an all in one package, and to do that with minimal space but more than enough to secure a complete commander deck that looks incredibly attractive is a win. Not only did he make this deckbox for honestly a really cheap price, but he did it with one of the most reputable companies in the industry to forge them for him. Not only that but he got the best designer in all of TCG accessories to help him with the box and multiple revisions. The guy in question had worked on all the top level products we love today, and he knows the types of materials would work best. At a base level this deck box is as good as the competition with all of those things sorted out. It wouldn't make sense for a company like Game Genic and the designer of his calibur to produce anything less than a deckbox that already exist on the market. For that reason I can only see it being as low as the best deck box but for commander specifically, this is the best deck box. I'm personally keeping mines for the collection to have a history in trading card games where a youtuber who has been grading products and is the known best person at it, is the most respected gets the opportunity to make his own deck box with things that he wished were there, with the most prestigious designer in TCG history, and a top level company, I feel that objectively this is one of the highest quality deck boxes we will have for a very long time. I'm not even sure how you can progress this deckbox further than what it is. It's so well optimized, and it feels that everything that I needed was thought out and things that I didn't know I needed were also thought out. The professor is someone who truly respects card games and loves them dearly even though MTG is destroying its own fanbase. He could easily continue this relationship with Game Genic and make a lot more money, but what he wants is a collectors piece for those who believed in this project, and I appreciate him for it. It's because of things like this that make this an easy purchase. I purchased 5 deckboxes and I wish I could've bought more. I think I'm missing one of the 133+ exclusives but I have everything but the early bird box. I can't wait to see the hand signed box. This will be my black lotus. I would accept a silly offer to take it off my hands but I think I'm going to end up keeping this box until I go in the grave. 10/10 Review

I bought seven boxes for myself, and my sisters. I left one basic box in the packaging. I got the double sided one, one of each color, and the rest were just the bundles. I find the design beautiful. My sisters were also satisfied.
I love this product and I use it every week. I however have some faults with the product. If you have a large collection of decks that you like to transport every week using multiple of these boxes is inconvenient. The box is also quite space intensive in your bag which can make it hard to fit other stuff along side it. Despite these things this box feels amazing to use and I never leave home without it so its still a 5/5 for me 👍

First time seeing you channel and its amusing bc my first thought when i saw the deckboxes was that it would be great for draft and i dont remember seeing many people saying the same thing when it launched. I usually go to draft directly from work and I dont like the idea of leaving my stuff in my car or bringing all my stuff into work to leave in a locker since Ive been using an arkhive for the past couple years and my bag ends up taking a fair bit of space. Being able to bring a smaller box that can hold a commander deck to play before draft or inbetween rounds and having all of my draft stuff with me sounded really nice and i can bring it into work a lot easier, ironically still planning to use the Arkhive for playmats but i dont mind leaving that in my car if i have to. Worked ok the other week, still need to condense down some of the stuff im bringing with me, for example i had too much commander stuff to fit my draft sb but having everything together in one place and not taking up too much table space is really nice

For me, the cards lair being as big as it was, and the fact you couldn’t put deck boxes in it, was what turned me off from it. Also, at the time, I didn’t ”get” the drawers. All together it made for a box I didn’t feel it was for me. And even now I think it’s too big for my taste. The Academic seems to strike the perfect balance for me. Hope that makes sense. Thanks for watching!
I'm glad to hear you took some of the legitimately genuine feedback from the Lair 400 video (I'm sorry people were unfairly ragging on you for your opinions) and went out of your way to understand it, tons of respect for that. Seems like between this and their new Lair 1000 Gamegenic is seeing that some people want the Lair idea but with the Dungeon space.

Can the drawers compartment (without the drawers itself) hold any boulder boxes?
So I know I'm a bit late to this, as I have just received my box, but I had two somewhat nitpicky things to add. 1st: the cover won't stay on if you peel up one side of it and bend it over the box to open it. The magnets aren't strong enough to allow the cover to flip open like this without falling off. Not a big deal but worth knowing. 2nd: The expandable dividers scrape against the bottom of the boxes' material when squished/expanded while sitting in the deck compartment. I'm not sure how durable the lining material is, but I suspect it won't hold up to fairly hard plastic scraping it over time.
@beyondthedeckbox

These are really good points. I suspect the magnet bit is because they don't want to get magnets that are too strong as it could cause other issues. Probably was a compromise. And I will be interested to see how long the lining lasts myself.

I need to double check [but I'm at work as I type], but I don't think you can fit large cards such as Planechase or Vanguard in the storage area, which if anything, is the only bad thing I've come across. Unfortunately timed too, as the deck box arrived shortly before the Planechase Commander decks.
Just received mine yesterday. I think the box is great but I was one of the people who splurged to get a signed box, and that signature was a D+ at best. That one kinda hurt.

The bigger academic would be perfect had it had a space for a rolled up playmat. Yes, it would make it bigger, but it is already a large box, ad being a bit "taller" to hold a mat.

@@beyondthedeckbox Thanks! Yea Im still iffy then on keeping mine. I would want two full decks. Hmmm, not a lot of options for carrying 4 decks in one box that does not take a ton of space

Why does everyone hate the Nexyofiber? Just curious.

I can't speak for others, but for me it feels "off" when I touch it. Just doesn't feel right to me. But I do recognize others like it.

@@beyondthedeckbox I can see that. It's definitely different, but it was never a level that bothered me. Personally I'm starting to switch to ultimate guard boulders and such, though. Using the Gamegenic boxes only for my premium decks.

Oh no! I’m sorry about that. I’m sure they’ll make it right if you contact them via the Kickstarter. I hope they are able to get it all fixed quickly!
Can't believe these are a kickstarter exclusive. Been in the hobby for 20+ years. Took a few months break when I had to travel overseas for work and had nobody to play with. Have been malding ever since.

I'm sure they will release these eventually. The colors may be different but I would be shocked if they didn't go for a wider release. If I find out I will definitely let you know!
Damn _straight_ it's not an A+. This bad boy's SSS!!

I'm not sure if I would ever put a deck box inside a deck box. It feels like this is a gimmick. Otherwise 10/10

I like to do so with bigger boxes, like the Arkhive 800+ or the Omnihive. Great way to put all your commander decks together, or your Pioneer decks, etc. For a smaller box like this I would be less likely. But I could see a scenario of throwing a few 60+ boulders in this box if I was going to an Oathbreaker night or something like that. But so far, I've mainly used this with cards and no boxes. Thanks for watching!

Too expensive for a deck box. Not waterproof. Stitching is mid

Compared to other deck boxes on the market with these features, this one is fairly cheap. And are you playing your games poolside?
