Duals falling in MTGO

[Gocho]

Wizards announces that they are reprinting Duals in MED4 and a lot of players have started to sell their Duals:

Supernova Bots don't buy more Duals and prices are like this:
Badlands [ME2] 13
Taiga [ME2] 22
Savannah [ME2] 22
Tundra [ME2] 23
Underground Sea [ME2] 34
Plateau [ME3] 11.5
Scrubland [ME3] 11.75
Volcanic Island [ME3] 12.75
Bayou [ME3] 13
Tropical Island [ME3] 21.5

[Mr.C]

The day they're going to start dropping IRL I'll believe that God exists.

Gocho, where did they announce that the duals will be reprinted in MED4? I can't seem to find it...

The whole set is up on Gatherer.

@ topic: sucks for me. I bought 40 duals for $900+ last July.

To those interested in MTGO, keep in mind Force of Will is $70ish and Survivals are $60ish. LEDs are $50ish. Oh yeah, and no reserve list, so those can be reprinted anytime. In my very brief experience on MTGO... have fun playing but do NOT consider it some kind of investment.

Well, seems right to me. I haver never looked at Magic as an investement, and I think nobody should.

Just to give a big heads up for anyone interested in getting into MTGO.

The best time to buy into cards is between the first and second week of release events for any particular set. This is between the time that lots of people are attempting to draft the set for profit and selling the cards ASAP for reduced prices.

I would not recommend to buy the duals right now.

With my lack of time and ambition to go to large scale tourneys, and only having small legacy tournaments near me that i typically play rouge anyways... Part of me wants to just jump into MTGO Legacy...

But damn, I do not want to go through the hassle of selling my cards and trying to get them online. Especially considering my Set of Forces IRL is worth less than MTGO Forces, so I'd be selling them and then having to make up the difference to get them online. Seems shitty.

Maybe Wizards should just let me mail them my collection to put in booster packs like they did durign Zendikar's first run and give me my collection back in digitalon MTGO.

No, I'd miss your rogue decks way too much.

Nice to know man. Thx for the info!

What's up with those Vintage staples being printed, eh? Vault (Time AND Mana), Library, Sol Ring, Strip Mine, and WORKSHOP!
I mean, I know a lot of those are popular in EDH, but Workshop? Come on, man.

Oh I'd still be slinging Rogue. Just would be playing and building rogue with Frank's cards if that were to happen.

Someone has to show up every now and then and remind people their mana bases lose to Blood Moon.

This was WotC's bat-brained attempt at bringing Vintage to MTGO, and completely missing the boat with terms of the Power 9. In essence, they're trying to sell Vintage online without Vintage.

If duals really are coming to MTGO(I still have some residual doubt over it being true. Something in me just doesn't want to believe), it might be enough to get me to get into MTGO.

Not only that, but the Plateau is ABU art! The full 40 were around 1000$ this summer, by mid Jan they will be lucky to see 400$.

ME4 is coming out this winter?

ME4 is coming out this winter?

Far as I remember release date was something around December.

And the Duals have already been available on MTGO, it's just now they're being "reprinted."

I'm rather glad, I very well might sell off most of my paper cards and make the jump... though if I decide to leave it might be harder to cash out and get money back.

[menace13]

They pushed the release date back to mid Jan of 2011. As rukcus said, first 2 weeks is a great time to buy 12-20 dollar range, duals. Only missing Masque block online-Ports, misdirection and Tangle Wire are the only played cards- to sync the card pools of paper to online.

The dual reprints were to spur Legacy players to fire more Premier events, all of 3 have fired since April, when Legacy events were announced.
As a side note, The Classic format is now Vintage sans Power9 and the silliest restricted list evar! Despite that, Shops vs Bazaars is where that meta seems to be heading.

[Gocho]

You can buy Plateau, Scrubland, Bayou, Badlands and Volcanic Island for $12 or less right now.
I just find Tundra for $21 and Underground for $32

So, you don't have to wait for the 12-20 dollars range.
