Modern Masters Box

So I just got a booster box of Modern Masters and I am really excited. I'm not sure if I should open it or not. I really need a Vendilion Clique and I really want Tarmogoyf . What should I do?

If you're looking at straight value, sealed MM is better than opened (unless you get super lucky and pull foil 'goyf.) However, MM is one of the best sets I've ever drafted, and I feel many would agree with me; while you may miss out on monetary value, you would gain entertainment worth out of opening it with friends. It's up to you, but don't bank on getting the Vendilion Clique or Tarmogoyf , especially with only 24 packs.

Having just done this myself, I can tell you that you should sell the box sealed and buy the singles you want. I opened mine and pulled out about $150 worth of junk leaving me about $225 in the hole. Don't make the same mistake. Sell it or hold it; they're going to keep increasing in value. Whatever you do don't open it.

But... Foil... Goyf... and such. If you can pass on opening that stuff you are strong. I would not have time to post here if I had that. If you do decide to open it, let us know, or do one of them opening videos.

I would die to open a Modern masters box. So much value! Here's how I look at it: you can get lots of value cards, or crap. But with a whole box, I bet you'll get value.

Wow, I am glad you opened it. Did you get any Kira, Great Glass-Spinner ? She is pretty sweet.

Holy crap! How do you get such good luck? I've been to no less than 3 Modern Masters drafts and the best I've got is an Arcbound Ravager . Bob, Clique, foil Clique and Goyf is potentially the best box ever opened.

Do you mind me asking how much you paid for the box? I would like to draft MM with some friends.

Oh wow, you did really well, but I could see how this set could really lay an egg.

Sell the box and get the clique and goyf with the money. Opening boxes is one way to get value but MM has more value sealed than what your likely to get if you open it.
