Good News / Bad News News

Bad News - Strixhaven Draft Boxes are sold out, and wizards is running behind and i cant get any restock of strix draft boxes for 3-4 weeks. This item has been removed from the monthly list.


Good News - Yesterday morning on 8/26/2021 @ 8am they removed Adventures in Forgotten Realms from the Restricted allocation list EARLY. The last time a standard set was removed early from allocation period was Theros in 2020.

This means  September 1st 2021, i will be listing the AFV draft boxes for $85. This is the earliest i have listed a new draft set in a very long time.


Suspicious News - The real question is "why". Did AFV draft boxes not sell well? I was under the impression they wanted to push the collectors/set items. Strixhaven draft is currently at the printers. Maybe they are using this to supply the market until strix draft shows up. Im not sure.

Only time will tell...



P.S. New Force of Will "The Seventh" coming tonight!

Is this temporary?

Rudy! I don't understand- the last email I had you restricted mtg draft box purchases to Kaldheim and Zendikar - Now strixhaven was available but isn't now!?!

Umaga Samoa

AFR is a great draft format, these one ones I will be loading up to sit on and draft. Surprised in a way people are still in the arms race for MTG playing constructed formats.

Larry Johnson

Dont forget tax 😒

Zachary J Uphold

Tough call. Feels like Bezomart will have AFR set boxes for $87 soon.

Any more Pokémon coming any time soon Rudy?

Will Strixhaven be available next month? Was really looking forward to buying something besides kaldheim and ZenRising.

Darn was hoping the AFR would be available this month so I can order one now and next month! Lolz

I don’t think it’s selling well

Strixhaven was definitely my favorite draft set this year. I’m surprised they underestimated how popular drafts would be especially with mystical archive shaking up a lot of games.

Caliginous

Shoot i wanted all those sought after 5 cent mystical archive pulls

Derek

Hey Rudy, I think you mentioned at some point that you were planning to do something like a "variety kit" of AFR boxes - is that still planned or did I imagine this?

Yeah me too.

Bradley Otto

I was really hoping this would have been pushed off another month... Looks like I'll be buying AFR and Tales of Aria!

Cru unlimited ❤

They were only available as limit 1 draft box (not case), this month, until now.

Tim C.

That's good for the long term collectors as well as fans of DnD like myself lol

Eric Tracy-Cohen

Didn't Rosewater come out and very strongly imply that AFR was so poorly received that they're not using D&D as a source anymore

Varrisk

AFR: "I ROLL DECEPTION" AFR: (NAT20) DM: You are called the best-selling set of all time and allocation is lifted early. STRIX: "I ALSO ROLL DECEPTION " STRIX: (NAT1) DM: You are sold out for the next 3-4 weeks so LOTR & Fortnite can begin production EVERYONE: "DA WUTT???"

DuGiOh

man and I was about to go in on the limit 1 per patron this month too. Next time.

I've purchased most FoW sets since becoming a patreon. I've never opened one and have yet to research the values.....will I do so again this evening?🤔

Scott Pysher

...wait, what? I guess I missed that you even had Strix draft yet; I thought they were still behind on even getting it to. I thought I had remembered only seeing the set boxes on the monthly list. Oh, well, I guess I'm an idiot. I can definitely wait a month. Thank you for the update!

Quinn Knobbe

I cant wait to make an alfonso deck. Gunna be epic

Kevin Bouch

Q3 2023 after the expansion where they include all of James Cameron's movies in a feature set.

joshua lefrancois

Same question. Upvoted

joshua lefrancois

Was there an americas funniest videos set that i missed?

Kevin Bouch

Rudy, do u have AFR draft ready to ship, or are you waiting to recieve your own shipment from distributors?

Zachary J Uphold

The truth

Philip Davis

Woo hoo

Ozzy B.

We all know it’s your fault Rudy.

AFR was overshadowed by MH2.
