Alright so I decided I think I am going to open my box instead of trading for singles. I know I am idiot I could get a 2 mythic box like the tolarian academy and only make $100. So I want to have fun doing it so it wouldn't be a total loss. Here are my ideas so far.
Use packs to do pack wars by adding land and playing them out.
Use box to draft with friends.
Use a couple packs with a friend. Add some random packs from other sets to make a crazy sealed pool.
Or just use them for regular sealed.
Any other ideas?
Sorry if this is the wrong spot. I figured it's modern/limited/something else.
Me and one of my friends bought a box each and did an 8 man sealed and that was probably the most fun I've had with it although adding packs and playing sealed like that sounds interesting. I would definitely recommend sealed; how you do it is up to you.

With the banning of twin comes the end of an era...
Yeah the adding packs sounded interesting. I can buy some khans for $2.50 a piece so I was thinking about that. Or maybe even random older sets using cool stuffs booster sale. So like stronghold or onslaught.
I also would like to put in a vote for this. Please record it and post the video here.
If I open it I will snap a photo and share what I got.
Check to see if your rare/mythic is good before doing the flip it or rip it. Sure, it takes out a lot of the exciement, but then you'll at least have the knowedge of whether you should keep the rare/mythic, and still have the intensity of wondering if you'll rip a Remand.

How do you check this? I was just about to tey saying there is no way I am opening this. The prices on these cards have all plummeted to less then $10. TEZZERET is at $3.50 a piece!!!!!! Wilt leaf down from 25-$7!!!! Holy crap. Even the eldrazi down to $20 a piece. Tarmogoyf staying strong at $140 for now and that's it. But if there is a way to check what mythics there are please let me know?!?!??!
I was saying if you decide to do the flip or rip, when you open the booster, look at the bottom 2 cards, which will be the foil and the rare/mythic, to see what they are so if it is something good then you will save it from the flip or rip part.

I always backdraft with a box if I know I want to keep the cards.
Positives are.
You and friends have a no cost draft.
No feel bads from people pulling the top money from your box (if that would make you feel bad, which it sometimes can)
Trolling your buddies by drafting the worst deck possible and handing it off is *really* fun
Declaring your awful luck and an impossible to win with pool whilst cursing the swine that gave you that pile, is also really fun
wow, peopel really want to see this flip or rip thing. never heard of it and the idea kind of horrifies me! but, to each their own.
i want to chime in with my favourite version of Pack Wars. here are the rules:
Start with one entire booster (minus the ad card) in your hand. You have no maximum hand size (so you don't discard cards at cleanup step).
Your library is empty, and you don't lose the game for drawing from an empty library.
For your land play each turn, instead of playing a land from your hand as normal, you can choose any card in your hand and play it face down. That card is now a Basic Land with all five basic land types (so it can tap for any colour of mana).
this version of Pack Wars is very strategic compared to the normal Pack Wars.
i applaud you for wanting to do something with your packs!

Draft or play 6-man sealed swiss. Never just open packs for the sake of opening them if you want to make the most of the money you spent.
