Magic: The Gathering Jumpstart 2022 Booster Box | 24 Packs (480 cards) | 2-Player Quick Play

I'm a big fan of the main line Jumpstart products (Jumpstart and Jumpstart 2022). Historically, Magic has generally leaned on the likes of starter decks to get new players into the game. These can be a great way to learn the basic rules, but they lack variety and financial value.Jumpstart solves both of these issues, though of course buying a full box carries a much higher price tag than a $10-20 starter set. Since you don't need to design a deck yourself there's no work or skill needed to get going, unlike drafting. There are a ton of different themes you can pull from, and if you don't like how the deck you pulled plays, you can just pull another one - there are enough packs for two players to each pull six decks. The themes are generally pretty straightforward and usually fairly cohesive. Balance can be a little all over the place, but I feel like that's mostly OK - it can give new players a good chance to beat a more experienced friend with a little bit of luck.Best of all, at the end of the experience you will be left with quite a number of very playable cards for commander, including a number of staples, mechanically unique cards, and alternate arts that you can't find anywhere else. Some of these can carry a high price tag, and as such can be sold or traded to help fill out your collection, if you don't need them.I highly recommend Jumpstart to new players, and even for experienced players just to open (if you can pick it up at a discount from its usual ~$100 price tag).

Got it on sale for $82 and worth every penny. Gives solid amounts of land and the set has plenty of chase cards. I got no more than 3 of any set. In two boxes, I only got triples once and doubles 5 times. So it was a great variety of different themes. Very enjoyable box.

First, it's great value for the money. Of course as with any sealed Magic product it's a gamble, but in my case ended up with $192 worth of cards including a Rhystic Study. Maybe one or two packs were only worth a buck, but most were higher in value.Out of the 24 packs, there were 20 unique themes and only a single exact duplicate (same theme and subset).I am a big fan of Jumpstart since its easy to play, offers a lot of variety, and perhaps most importantly provides a fairly level playing field. Its great for newcomers and veterans alike. To keep the replayability high I double sleeve each card (KMC inner, Dragonshield outer), place a small colored sticker on the inner sleeve so all cards from the same pack have the same color, and then place them into a small plastic case from Burger Tokens. These then go into one of the larger triple row felt/leather 1800 card boxes.In the end it gives me a box/cube that can be easily transported and players can just pull out two decks at random and play.

This set is amazing! I bought one, and re-bought another. My gaming group loves these, and that they come in clear plastic is a BONUS to allow us to keep the themes out so we could pick what two we wanted to put together. There is a wonderful synergy between these packs & the original Jumpstart. I may buy more if the price goes down, but I'm not sure it will.

Super fun for new players. The rhystic study i pulled made it all worth it.

They dont do tricks. But you can use them to play the game.Buy them if you want more cards for the game. DONT buy them if you expect them to BE MAGIC.

Jumpstart is probably the easiest way to play magic, just take 2 packs, open, shuffle them up and play. I played with my friends all afternoon, changing decks after every game and we never repeated decks. Besides that, the value is really good, every pack had something of value and some of them had around $30 worth in cards. Both this and the first jumpstart set are a total recommendation to anyone that wants to play as long as the booster box is going for around $100

Jumpstart 2022 has a lot of great cards and easy to get your money's worth from pulls. Fun set for a quick match with some friends, just open 2 packs each and get right to playing. With cards like Rhystic Study in this set, and legendary creatures like Ashcoat of the Shadow Swarm and Balan Wandering Knight, you're sure to find plenty of cards to round out your current decks as well.
