    Great job. I think tho if you are trying to get players from other formats draw up some price tags on the decks they are playing in standard, i don't think people realize how much decks in standard cost. The switch would be easy.

    I like how Burn is really good against BUG and Jund.

    Burn tends to be a good choice against non-combo metas.

    When our shop was all blue tempo (back in 200x) I played something like this:

    4 Smother
    4 Edict
    4 Hymn
    4 Duress
    4 Innocent Blood
    4 Cabal Therapy
    4 Phyrexian Arena
    several random win cons
    lots of Swamps

    You might switch some of the crappy choices for less crappy choices and add Wastelands if you got them. I didn't even bother with CT flashback, but some token generatr might help. For combo you need to stop GY tricks (Relic and Cage) and decrease their chance to win out of nowhere. Trinisphere?
    It's not good against Landstill (too many dead removal spells), but Thresh absolutely hated to play against this pile.

    I think the biggest thing is the deep seeded emotional understanding that the right play is the right play regardless of outcomes. The ability to make a decision 5 straight times, lose 5 times because of it, and still make it the 6th time if it's the right play. - Jon Finkel

    Not many Tabernacles out there and Lands plays 4 of them.

    In the year before the Grand Prix just about every Legends rare that sees any use at all and has never been reprinted skyrocketed. There's a huge asset bubble out there in the world right now. Rare collectible playing cards are one of those luxury items that can spike up dramatically under that kind of pressure. Not rare as in this is how we're printing it now. Rare as in was printed 20 years ago and will never be reprinted.

    Gaea's Cradle was $300 just before the Grand Prix. Down to about $150 now. Tabernacle doesn't seem to be dropping in value.

    They don't. They seem to be super rare though, god knows why.

    There were only 19,500 of each English Legends rare printed. Figure that half of those shuffled to dust before the advent of sleeves and that half of the remainder are buried in somebody's attic with nobody knowing they even exist at this point and you maybe have 5,000 copies available worldwide. Not sure about Italian Legends print numbers.

    There were 22,800 of each of the power 9 printed with probably two-thirds shuffled to dust since they saw play in many lists in the year and a half before sleeves were allowed. That, along with the utility of the cards, explains the very high prices of the power 9. Legends rares are probably just as rare and they see play in both Vintage and Legacy.

    Well, those numbers are only guesstimates, but I'm afraid you're right.

    What are the odds that jamming 4x Brainstorm and some more fetches into that Affinity list would make it a lot stronger over the course of a tournament?

    Wow didn't expect this thread to get a restart. Please note that I made this 2 years ago, the prices are likely different now.

    I bet. I haven't done the math, but there seems to have been inflation. Of course the timing of the necro doesn't help either...

    Affinity has changed a good amount since that list, looking closer to their Modern counterpart. Inkmoth Nexus is a key card now. The thread is here.

    Yes indeed. Some of the decks have doubled (even the least expensive ones). Quite a shame really - I got my first Legacy deck finished in time for the prices to spike such that I can't reasonably build another, even a budget one.

    I'm going to read through this carefully. I've been playing Legacy on MTGO for a little while, but I don't have any paper cards. I couldn't afford to make the decks I have online in paper, but I wouldn't mind playing elves or something.

    Did I notice that the elves list is missing some usual cards? I didn't see bayou, for instance...
    Team America F$%& Yeah!
