Human, elf, dwarf, hobbit, goblin, orc, troll, worgs, treefolk, I like how this starter deck includes all the main lotr creatures you'll want. Such a cool starter set!

They did it justice for real. I play exclusively with lotr cards now! Fits right in to the game

honestly both of those decks look like they're playable and dangerous but still really simple. good job wotc and lotr!

Thanks for opening! I wanted to buy it later this week but definitely going to do it.

Wow, both decks do look like fun. Rakdos in this set though is insane.

These cards are awesome and I want to learn to play, but my local game store hasn’t gotten the starter yet. I did get a jumpstart pack from target for some of the cool artwork though! Thanks for the video!

I own 3/4 decks and the starter kit. I haven’t spent this much money on mtg since the Brothers war because I wanted those transformers!!

My buddy loves LOTR and Game Of Thrones... This is my chance to get him into Magic! Thanks for the preview.

Last time I played Mtg was in 01/02 during Odyssey! But I'm a huge Lotr fan soI just picked up this kit for €19. The first store I went it was sold out tho

thanks for review each of the cards !!

I'm picking 1 up from my lgs right after i get off work today

Mines was a factory error ended up getting like 6 of the goblin assailant and like a bunch of the same cards in multiples and missing some cards

It's the only product I'm getting, just for the lore and the wallet XD It's great having the main characters and some spotlight moments :D Nice vid! Have a nice day!

Just bought this and itll be here Wednesday, first time ever owning MTG and im excited to get into it

I was able to order one! I love the lotr one of my favorite fantasy movies of all time.

I was debating if I want to buy this just for the LOTR cards. It looks decent

I have this Starter Kit, and it is fun. May I ask where to go from here? What LOTR booster or package should I buy next?

@MTGUnpacked

Жыл бұрын

If you're just after LOTR, the Commander decks are pretty good. Otherwise I'd recommend downloading MTG Arena to play. In paper, MTG Pioneer Challenger decks or any of the regular MTG pre-constructed decks are worthwhile.

Compared to the cost of everything else this is a cheaper and fun option.

Brand new to MTG but massive LOTR fan I own this starter pack but don’t know where to go from here as there are so many different packs for cards. Can I just buy booster packs and add them to these decks?

@MTGUnpacked

That's the most expensive way to go! I suggest first playing with a bunch of decks on MTG Arena to get familiar with how they play. You can also get Starter Commander decks and Pioneer decks in paper, but both of those formats are more complicated than Standard. Check out the competitive decks (and others) on mtggoldfish.com and if you find something you like, you can buy individual cards from local game stores or online via sites like tcgplayer.com

Can I ask about the artwork/placemat that you have in the background? Super curious where its from ?

Hi there, as a new comer (pure beginner) I am going to but this Starter Kit but you said it can’t be played in Standard Format, can it be upgraded by Booster so it still playable in Standard Format?

No, I don't think any of the cards are Standard-legal, though they're perfectly fine in the Commander format. There's another 2023 MTG starter kit that should be mostly Standard-legal, which I reviewed on the channel here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/a46ItKiLoMfYf5M.html

Finally! ✌️👏👏

I held off buying this Starter set because the Artwork (although very impressive) resembled virtually nothing I had come to know as LotR from watching the movies so many times over. However, I finally bought a set "on special" just for the "hell of it" and must admit the cards are surprisingly fun and are growing on me. I only play Mtg VERY casually, so this very well priced starter set is ideal.

@fidalf99

Interesting. Since I'm interested in this set precisely because it doesn't look like the movies. It feels almost trippy to see lotr in different visual light than through the Jackson films which is how i always primarily knew it.

The art is more based on the books / traditional magic art. It’s Lotr through a magic lens. Took me a second to get use to it not being the actors from the film
