Now here is a different view of this “no reprint” of cards. Let’s say that they figure out that one card from the set is high demand, what stops them from a different version, phase, or something along those lines. While I hate the idea of reprint cards. I played magic back after it first came out and that is what they were about. But as time passed they figured out the secondary market was making a killing off there work, so how to get there cut. Reprint, reprint, reprint….. So to keep the value of the market and secondary market stable it does make sense to not do that. But as at the same time updating the card and its powers or ability.

WOTF then did all of this childish posturing at the news of KS ousting them telling KS to "kick rocks" and kick them off the platform cus they weren't gonna pull the campaign willingly later saying the "woke mob" got them canceled and that they would relaunch on their OWN website because Wonders is so great and all these woke warriors won't stop them...then they went ahead and pulled all the overt NFT features from the Ks campaign and are planning to relaunch on Tuesday 5/14 apparently gettinghte green light from KS - likely following the same playbook of getting people who are already bought into the speculative value of the $250 booster box NFT scam and having them staged to be big first day backers who will inflate the perceived value of this non-game so that those unaware of the many, many unethical and shady underpinnings of this trash ass project will contribute for the "collectible" investment side of this offering - which considering that all the images are generated with AI is ironic and hilarious because they not only don't own the images or create them but there is no inherent value to them in any sense, not even artistically.

I've been a fan of TCGs for 20 years now. Every game I could get my hands on: Pokemon, Digimon, Yu-Gi-Oh, Magic, Neopets, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Wacky Packages (not a game), Star Wars X-Wing Miniatures (yes, technically a tabletop game)... Anything I could get my hands on. How many have I played in tournaments or anything beyond playing with my sister or maybe a friend? None. I've never spent the time or money to have a deck that followed the "meta" or even cared to look that up. I just built decks with cards I liked and themes I thought worked. Here's why I think Wonders works for players like me... I don't have to worry about meta! Sure, there will be strategies that matter or ways to play the game better, but I should be able to pick up some cards and be just as good as someone else with a "power rating" similar to mine. I don't have to seek out overpriced older cards. Ideally, if they aren't reprinting, they're making new versions of cards that are similar to old cards. I shouldn't have to know Bonfire or Little Knight or anything else off the top of my head, I just go get more cards and incorporate them with whatever other ones I have. I don't have to wait for a reprint set or buy $100 cards on eBay. To me, that makes this more accessible to casual players. I think this game really undoes some of the current thinking on card games and will force players to just be good with the cards they have. Sure, over time they can introduce new effects or have some power creep, but the way the gameplay is structured, that won't really be that beneficial either. Then they can focus on the art and the collectability (serialized cards, old cards from previous sets, etc.). If you want to drop $10,000 on a first edition card like people do for Charizard, you can! But you don't *need* cards like that to be competitive.

So I see you continuously whining about price on this. Why is reprinting BS? Because it ruins the collectible value on the card. There’s printable decks on the kickstarter and discord. The cards in the 401 card base set will be MASS printed until they’re not. Remember the infamous yugioh card “ASH BLOSSOM” that was going for $300 a pop at one time? Yu-Gi-Oh is volatile as crap. Because you’ll spend all this money to be competitive at it and then the $900 you spent for 3 copies of a card gets reprinted and boom, you’re out $600 afterwards. True Draco? Let’s ban the whole core card! They scrapped the NFTs but there’s chase cards for the whole base set that are called character proofs, that what you were looking at for sale originally, was the IP for the card in NFT form. The chase cards they have decided to go with now are 1/1. And if you pull it, you are now the intellectual property owner of that card and it’s name, likeness, etc. Out of the 13 or so MTG sets that Brian Tinsman worked on, he was the lead designer for 8 of them. The no reprints aren’t meant to make it unplayable, they’re meant to give you REAL value in your game. Like you said, yu-gi-oh sweats will pay $1000 for a tournament deck just for it to get nerfed in a month. Imagine investing in this game EARLY and having chase cards that will ALWAYS hold their value until a new set comes out with MAYBE JUST MAYBE a counter card? Instead of banning the competitive play of a card, let’s make cards that counter it to make it a little more fair. Brian designed this game to compete with Magic. Do you know who Brian Tinsman even is? He wrote a book, “The Game Inventors Guide Book.” He also worked for WOTC and MTG. His job? Test and play EVERY game that could compete with MTG and determine if it was a threat to them marketing wise. Who better to make a game that will compete with MTG? Seems like you didn’t dig very deep into this thing but allot changed since your video. No hate, just do your research.

Apparently they're finishing up with the Kickstarter now but all the comments in Kickstart about the playtests is the lack thereof. They haven't even tested it much of any and already closing..I have a feeling the mass influx of pledges are maybe done by devs themselves. It's worth the loss to Kickstart if you can fake overwhelming interest in a game rarely tested. They did however, according to comments, release a print and play test deck on their discord for ppl to try themselves. Alot of controversial game rule mechanics apparently going on too. Ontop of that they apparently have a former wizards of the coast artist working them but yeah no reprints ever definitely points to the game being designed for the most financial gain in short time with no longevity...unless they think the ai won't ever stop coming up with ideas. I'll tell you what will happen is that ai if it's used for such purposes will just copy what it sees off of edhrec lol

Just found their site through one of their surveys this morning, so my take may not be a fair representation of their intended product. One of their primary tenets is to create the most valuable TCG cards in existence. I think they're really missing something. They believe that scarcity itself creates value. The problem is that scarcity only creates value when there is demand for the scarce asset. In Magic: The Gathering (MTG), the tremendous value of the Power 9 cards has been bolstered by scarcity and a promise of no reprints. However, If MTG, as a game, stopped being something people wanted to play after The Reserved List was introduced, those cards would still have some value to collectors of obscurities, but their prices would be nowhere as high as they are today. The reason why the prices of those cards have gone up and stayed up is because people still play the game and want access to those cards, cards that will never-even as functional equivalents-be printed again in a tournament legal form. In fact, the existence of cards on The Reserved List, and the high value of chase cards In various formats, iare primary reasons why MTG is struggling with large swaths of the player community using counterfeit cards (commonly called "proxies"). It seems to me, as a retired FLGS owner, that the founders of this project are far more interested in producing valuable collectibles than they are in producing a fun, broadly appealing game. I'm not sure who is a member of their target audience. Are they hoping to find a bunch of wealthy Elon Musk wannabes? Let's imagine you become a new player of Wonders of the First during the 3rd or 4th generation of the game (the release of the third or fourth printed set). The set of cards you acquire will contain none of the cards previously released. You find a playgroup and start playing. You notice that you have a difficult time beating some of the decks you encounter, but you notice that other players have cards that allow them to thrive against those decks. Aren't you going to want to have those cards in your collection? Since they were produced in limited quantities, acquiring them will be expensive, and the cost to acquire those cards will only grow over time, because they will never be reprinted again. They damn well better be freaking experts in perfect game balance If they expect new players three, five, ten, or more generations down the line to be able to play on equal footing with those who have been playing since day one. How many times do they think a new player will show up for an event when they realize they can't compete against players who have the older cards that will never be reprinted again? MTG is encountering similar challenges, but due to a completely different approach. They are not above reprinting cards, and it often causes card prices to drop. After about six months, unless the meta has changed significantly (or they've introduced cards that are functionally superior to the ones they reprinted), the value of the original versions of those cards starts going up again. It's not the reprinting itself that's causing them problems, but rather the frequency and sheer volume of releases. I've listened to players and collectors alike complain about wallet fatigue, noting that there are simply too many releases for them to keep up. This has caused organized play to falter in some areas, while the casual format, Commander, continues to grow. Commander players used to look forward to one Commander release per year. Now, new Commander decks arrive with just about every new release-about every 5 to 6 weeks last time I checked. There is no shortage of available Commander decks for people to buy, yet players are still opting to purchase or print proxies in order to play their preferred game, because their resources are not limitless. If you make it too difficult for people to get your game pieces (i.e., cards), whether due to intentional scarcity or due to a multiplicity of releases, people will either A) stop playing entirely, B) resort to the use of counterfeit game pieces to enable them to play at a price they can afford. I'm willing to be convinced otherwise, but so far I've seen nothing to suggest that Wonders of the First has a vehicle whereby to build a player community that can continue growing.
@AndrewJamesRiemer4 ай бұрын
The idea of never reprinting cards sounds like a particularly horrendous idea, unless cards will only be valid for play during a limited season when they are available. Otherwise, you end up with very powerful cards released in the earliest days of the game that no new player will ever be able to acquire without spending boatloads of money. That does not sound like the type of game I would want to play. In fact, that sounds like the type of game that will encourage people to print their own unofficial copies of those limited circulation cards.

They've been doing tons of advertising. But yeah, the gameplay and card design seems shallow, and the emphasis seems heavily on collectibility of something that CAN be played as a game.
So I see you continuously whining about price on this. Why is reprinting BS? Because it ruins the collectible value on the card. There’s printable decks on the kickstarter and discord. The cards in the 401 card base set will be MASS printed until they’re not. Remember the infamous yugioh card “ASH BLOSSOM” that was going for $300 a pop at one time? Yu-Gi-Oh is volatile as crap. Because you’ll spend all this money to be competitive at it and then the $900 you spent for 3 copies of a card gets reprinted and boom, you’re out $600 afterwards. True Draco? Let’s ban the whole core card! They scrapped the NFTs but there’s chase cards for the whole base set that are called character proofs, that what you were looking at for sale originally, was the IP for the card in NFT form. The chase cards they have decided to go with now are 1/1. And if you pull it, you are now the intellectual property owner of that card and it’s name, likeness, etc. Out of the 13 or so MTG sets that Brian Tinsman worked on, he was the lead designer for 8 of them. The no reprints aren’t meant to make it unplayable, they’re meant to give you REAL value in your game. Like you said, yu-gi-oh sweats will pay $1000 for a tournament deck just for it to get nerfed in a month. Imagine investing in this game EARLY and having chase cards that will ALWAYS hold their value until a new set comes out with MAYBE JUST MAYBE a counter card? Instead of banning the competitive play of a card, let’s make cards that counter it to make it a little more fair. Brian designed this game to compete with Magic. Do you know who Brian Tinsman even is? He wrote a book, “The Game Inventors Guide Book.” He also worked for WOTC and MTG. His job? Test and play EVERY game that could compete with MTG and determine if it was a threat to them marketing wise. Who better to make a game that will compete with MTG? Seems like you didn’t dig very deep into this thing but allot changed since your video. No hate, just do your research.
I'm not gonna read all that. Sorry or congrats.
Apparently they're finishing up with the Kickstarter now but all the comments in Kickstart about the playtests is the lack thereof. They haven't even tested it much of any and already closing..I have a feeling the mass influx of pledges are maybe done by devs themselves. It's worth the loss to Kickstart if you can fake overwhelming interest in a game rarely tested. They did however, according to comments, release a print and play test deck on their discord for ppl to try themselves. Alot of controversial game rule mechanics apparently going on too. Ontop of that they apparently have a former wizards of the coast artist working them but yeah no reprints ever definitely points to the game being designed for the most financial gain in short time with no longevity...unless they think the ai won't ever stop coming up with ideas. I'll tell you what will happen is that ai if it's used for such purposes will just copy what it sees off of edhrec lol
Lol, tell me you are totally clueless without telling me that. There is a serious business model behind this, telling people ‘it won’t work’ - then why the guy who did 8 mtg sets working on this ccg? Or ex Riot/LOL, MTG brand manager as well? Or why do people like me drop 5-6 figs on this, be it presale on kickstarter or buying early editions. I mean, you are bickering for 15 mins over catchy ad, but you are totally clueless about the topic and used a clickbait yourself to make investors and fans come here to watch this garbage.
Game reminds me of an MTG like universe that plays like Marvel Snap. I found info on kickstarter, booster boxes are $150. Shipping around November 2024.

why this so wide 💀
Bruh ik. I tried 😂
Yeah man, the game mechanics seem cool so i want to try it, but im not confident itll be something ill stick with. I do think some cards shouldnt be reprinted like MTGs Black Lotus, because its fun to try to get scarce cards. But not reprinting ANY cards? Thats... a strange way to run a game based on said cards.
Game looks like it plays like shit anyway, no reprints ever? So it’s not about the gameplay at all, it’s about 2nd hand market value lmao
What $800,000 Yu-Gi-Oh deck are you referring to???
I think you heard wrong or I misspoke! I meant to say $800 to $1000 deck. At the time of recording fire king snake eye was about $1000 to build with WANTED, Diabellestar, Bonfire, and S:P Little Knight being the bulk of the cost.
Sorry for any confusion!
where did u get this controlller
So it's the scuf Vantage ps4 controller. Unfortunately it's no longer in production.
I'm literally just here to confirm that I was actually doing electrics. All these players crying that they can't play Reina cause electrics are too hard literally had me doubting that I was doing the right thing. Even content creators that I go to for other games were talking about needing to practice electrics. They had me so confused
there's electrics and non electrics for this particular move, you sure you're doing the specific one everytime?
@@why9266 not every single time, but enough for it to be part of my gameplan. Electric has a different animation from non electric so I'm sure that I can electric. It's precision based, focus on the input and not the speed of inputs. Speed is for perfect electric and block punishes and thats not for humans
The caption is how ever you embody the words translated to fuckin awsome powers
this guy sounds like a d bag. clearly hasn't read anything from the web site and is looking for something to shit on for views. and for everyone trashing the ai art they never tired to hide it. they don't need to. its a small start up trying something new they wouldn't have the funds for these things up front. this isn't 1986 starting a new card game. magic is dead, yugioh is dead, lets move on and try and find something new and give it a chance.
Can confirm this was 100% for the views
Magic is dead? Really? They've almost killed off most of the collector fan base in the last 3 or 4 years yet last year Hasbro raked in 2 billion off of just mtg alone. The guy that did it put some chick in charge of 2024 and she flopped m30, murder, and those aftermath disaster bonus sets but she resigned and they haven't replaced her yet so maybe it's soon to be but really the value for collectors still remains with first prints...new first prints coming out all the time hell fallout yielded a crap ton.
I do gotta say last year might end up killing it they ignored Wallstreets warnings that they're tanking the market value with the amount of reprints and new sets coming out plus universes beyond. But tbh the beyond releases are probobly helping maintain....I hope it doesn't die. There's still value in cards while they're legal after print. The value tanks after that time so if ur not gonna collect or use it, sell it. I flip boosters. Soon free game for me for the most part. Usually just 1 card gets me most if not more of my money back on the boxes I buy.
They didn’t even try to disguise the AI art😂
I agree with everything you are saying BUT the same thing was said about sorcery contested realm and we ALL know how that turned out. ALL CARD GAMES ARE GAMBLE even MTG. Now IF this game comes out and it rockets then are coming back with a video saying you were wrong. In todays card gaming it is the wild wild west. You have 50% flippers and 50% players and you cant tell who is driving the market with ANY game now.
On FB they directly commented saying it’s AI generated art
Dude I was chatting with the guy who is promoting it on fb and he cannot deal with nay sayers lol. I made a comment about drawing a card and he said no its a ability. I was like Jeff this game isn't going to make it. Also yes it is AI. He was trying to convince people AI is good for the world.
yep my d pad broke
Heyo, this dude, Jeff French, who is involved with Wonders of the First, is threatening to sue me for defamation for calling them out for this bullshit. Just FYI. Your video is the top result for "wonders of the first is a scam"
They missed the middle ground. No reprints is bad. Too many reprices is bad. Generic base cards need reprints but they could choose to not reprint the first artwork. Like make each edition a different artwork. Anyway thanks for the video. This smells like metazoo.
This sounds like a shittier version of Keyforge. But with NFTs.
Le combo est à l’envers gros , c’est d’abord souverain sinistre et ensuite chixiao… la tu te prive de piocher une carte mec donc c’est mauvais
ouais mais tu veux faire comment avec cette main ? Soit il envoie Moye, soit le Magie au cimetière pour spe Longyan. La synchro 10 apparaît lais rien d'autre. Tu peux envoyer Moye au grave mais même en la ramenant avec la magie, tu révèles quoi pour faire ton jeton ?
By the way, thanks for making the video!
Just found their site through one of their surveys this morning, so my take may not be a fair representation of their intended product. One of their primary tenets is to create the most valuable TCG cards in existence. I think they're really missing something. They believe that scarcity itself creates value. The problem is that scarcity only creates value when there is demand for the scarce asset. In Magic: The Gathering (MTG), the tremendous value of the Power 9 cards has been bolstered by scarcity and a promise of no reprints. However, If MTG, as a game, stopped being something people wanted to play after The Reserved List was introduced, those cards would still have some value to collectors of obscurities, but their prices would be nowhere as high as they are today. The reason why the prices of those cards have gone up and stayed up is because people still play the game and want access to those cards, cards that will never-even as functional equivalents-be printed again in a tournament legal form. In fact, the existence of cards on The Reserved List, and the high value of chase cards In various formats, iare primary reasons why MTG is struggling with large swaths of the player community using counterfeit cards (commonly called "proxies"). It seems to me, as a retired FLGS owner, that the founders of this project are far more interested in producing valuable collectibles than they are in producing a fun, broadly appealing game. I'm not sure who is a member of their target audience. Are they hoping to find a bunch of wealthy Elon Musk wannabes? Let's imagine you become a new player of Wonders of the First during the 3rd or 4th generation of the game (the release of the third or fourth printed set). The set of cards you acquire will contain none of the cards previously released. You find a playgroup and start playing. You notice that you have a difficult time beating some of the decks you encounter, but you notice that other players have cards that allow them to thrive against those decks. Aren't you going to want to have those cards in your collection? Since they were produced in limited quantities, acquiring them will be expensive, and the cost to acquire those cards will only grow over time, because they will never be reprinted again. They damn well better be freaking experts in perfect game balance If they expect new players three, five, ten, or more generations down the line to be able to play on equal footing with those who have been playing since day one. How many times do they think a new player will show up for an event when they realize they can't compete against players who have the older cards that will never be reprinted again? MTG is encountering similar challenges, but due to a completely different approach. They are not above reprinting cards, and it often causes card prices to drop. After about six months, unless the meta has changed significantly (or they've introduced cards that are functionally superior to the ones they reprinted), the value of the original versions of those cards starts going up again. It's not the reprinting itself that's causing them problems, but rather the frequency and sheer volume of releases. I've listened to players and collectors alike complain about wallet fatigue, noting that there are simply too many releases for them to keep up. This has caused organized play to falter in some areas, while the casual format, Commander, continues to grow. Commander players used to look forward to one Commander release per year. Now, new Commander decks arrive with just about every new release-about every 5 to 6 weeks last time I checked. There is no shortage of available Commander decks for people to buy, yet players are still opting to purchase or print proxies in order to play their preferred game, because their resources are not limitless. If you make it too difficult for people to get your game pieces (i.e., cards), whether due to intentional scarcity or due to a multiplicity of releases, people will either A) stop playing entirely, B) resort to the use of counterfeit game pieces to enable them to play at a price they can afford. I'm willing to be convinced otherwise, but so far I've seen nothing to suggest that Wonders of the First has a vehicle whereby to build a player community that can continue growing.
The idea of never reprinting cards sounds like a particularly horrendous idea, unless cards will only be valid for play during a limited season when they are available. Otherwise, you end up with very powerful cards released in the earliest days of the game that no new player will ever be able to acquire without spending boatloads of money. That does not sound like the type of game I would want to play. In fact, that sounds like the type of game that will encourage people to print their own unofficial copies of those limited circulation cards.
This loses to nibiru, just normal mo ye and before chixao you summon longyuan and token, then make barrone on 5th summon and then chixao...
True! I made this way before I had access to a Baronne lol
That requires a more specific hand That’s 4 swordsoul monsters required mo-ye, loughn, 1 discard target and 1 reveal target Its definitely doable but requires a more specific set up to mo-ye+ swordsoul card or 1 ecclisia to summon mo-ye and pray to god they don’t have an ash or called by
It was my first time trying out a card game but what I tried out seemed pretty fun. I met some nice and enthusiastic people. I’d probably make more friends if I finally tried MTG, but yeah the art on the cards looked pretty AI derived.
god i hate this voice
People say that it’s difficult to learn ewgf on pad. But for me it was not so difficult. I easily can do ewgf, otgf and jfsr on my Xbox pad
I actually love using the Xbox controller ngl
It’s hard doing it on a PS controller cuz the D Pad sucks
@@lll_Number_One I agree. I hate the ps5 controller.
So much easier on my stickless pad lol i just hit the F button then the F+D+2 all at once right the first F
Real haha
Then what am I playing right now? I am confused.
