Looks like Paper Pauper has become the hot, new format for speculations; Chainer's Edict is now a ~$13 dollar card, Oubliette is being bought out, and foils of many format staples are rapidly...

Petrified Field just doubled in price; is it some sort of speculative anti-Wasteland tech for Legacy Eldrazi builds? Or is it just another crazy buyout?

But why would anyone buy it? It does nothing.

I'm here all week, folks.

I miss the times when I traded an Exalted Angel, the Standard hotness, for my two Underground Seas...and was getting the raw end of the deal.

Any judges here going to get a nice $500+ present from WotC?

Now that sounds pretty clueless :really:.

Hardly anyone is getting into Magic because of the high value retained or whatnot; if they were, you think Wizards would be advertising it (likely...

In a way, it is that easy for speculators to run rampant.

Wizards hasn't plainly stated it anywhere, but they've made it readily apparent that they are a bit anxious to put big-money cards into a...

Maybe I'm just a cynic, but I see the Judge Rewards Promos as a means to "pay" the judges for all their hard work without getting into all sorts of international tax law messes. And let's be...

Lol, Tarmogoyf at Mythic again in Modern Masters 2.

While I wasn't expecting Wizards to grow a backbone and plant Goyf at uncommon, I was at least expecting them to drop it to Rare. They really...
