  1. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    After reading your post, I'm curious: How well do you know the other Legacy players? Is this a temporary absence for them? Do you know why they aren't showing up? Does anyone in your area promote the...

    Welcome back!

    Also, Bone Flute made the spreadsheet?

    This kind of already happened. Remember this?

    @H: It was the timing of your remark that was amusing; that's all. You're definitely not a villain. I agree with the critique of Iconic Masters not being very iconic. It's really just Hodgepodge...

    And then one hour later, it's there.

    Mainly for other decks to have instant game against the Cheeri0s deck.
  7. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    Yep, it's very popular in that format.
  8. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    Khans of Tarkir was a pretty solid and relatively high-powered set, in my opinion. Just for perspective, Lemnear, what was the last block you thought wasn't crappy?
  9. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    Man, can we put this on a sandwich board? This is probably the most hilarious post I've read this year!

    OK, so Step 1 is to look for the signs of impending doom, which are not apparent. Your...

    If only I had a dollar for every time someone used this phrase ...

    The doomsayers have been wrong every year, and Legacy post-SCG is still more robust and widespread than it was pre-SCG. The...
  11. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    I feel like this will happen. WOTC continues to put out dual land variants in almost every set. Eventually there will be something that's accidentally good, although lands are the most unlikely...
  12. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    Doomsday is the ultimate trap card.
  13. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    It's a popular casual card, which is mainly why it has slowly increased in value. If it were ever unbanned in Legacy, it would absolutely spike, but I don't see unbanning as a likely possibility....
  14. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    This cycle just repeats, with different cards, over time. If anyone wants to relive previous missed opportunities, look no further than the history of this thread. It goes back many years.
  15. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    I stand by my assertion a year or so ago that most people who've been playing for a couple years have enough capital/cards that they can trade into Legacy. Increased prices makes the process take...
  16. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    No, there isn't. The big card stores/SCG wanted the Reserved List abolished. It was Wizards/Hasbro that locked the list in place. Until the lawyers and businessmen at the top of those companies feel...
  17. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    Actually, I amend my previous statement. I'm seeing lots of comments that it was the guy who bought out Moat. He's apparently bragging about his LED buyout on Facebook, but I'm not on Facebook.
  18. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    Well, Storm did win GP Prague despite Eldrazi's strong presence there. It's true that Rodrigo Togores completely dodged the matchup (and dodged Miracles until the finals), and it's true that Eldrazi...
  19. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    TCG mid is too easily manipulated. People should avoid using it when they trade. Just choose a big store and go by the posted prices there.
  20. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    Fixed that for you. ;)
  21. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    The difference between Tier 1 and Tier 2 is honestly too small to fret about. Just learn your deck(s) inside and out.
  22. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    As soon as WOTC starts releasing spoilers for Eternal Masters (or any other reprint set), people will start dumping cards. We still have lists for Commander and From the Vaults to be announced, along...
  23. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    This is pretty much true except for the part about Pauper being expensive.
  24. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    Before the errata on Abeyance, it turned off lands producing mana via the line "abilities requiring an activation cost," so it was basically a white Time Walk that cantripped. For a short while,...
  25. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    What are you talking about? Underground Seas were ~$350 around the time of Khans. Up until recently, dual lands had been shedding value.
