And Legacy and Vintage and EDH and casual.

Calling now that new "duals" make Khans fetches go even higher

And the full art fetches and ravland are gonna be insssssssssssssssssssssane!

My prediction:
100~ for shocks
200-300 for non blue fetches
400-500 for blue fetches

I expect 100 for shocks depending on the shock (Hallowed Fountain might be 120-140), 150 for fetch, 200-250 for delta, strand, tarn and misty.

My rationale for this prediction is that full art foils mismatch with legacy and vintage duals (Modern border full art). The price will get pushed mostly because of modern I think.

The thing is, they are just like foils, expensive versions of cards you already have/can get cheaper. I feel it's like owning Unlimited Duals and bitching someone else has Beta. So fucking what. You own the cards, shut up and play the game.

Come on it's MTG! You can't have people just being happy, there is always some who'll bitch about it (see this thread's title).

Should have just made the special lands old-bordered non-foil instead.

Look forward to seeing all of the new arts. Bummer there won't be non-foil versions but at least their will be some cool new lands to see. I like the new border and am interested to see what it looks like in person.

It's funny that they stuck their new cycle in with the fetches and shocks. It's going to feel real bad when you open a standard-only expedition land.

That's the nickname for the new lands?

That's what they are calling these "chase" full arts

No way. I would bet against that.

1. Even considering that these lands will be very rare (one per 5400 boosters, 150 boxes), a very big amount of boxes will be opened. You got a foil Onslaught Polluted Delta per 3080 boosters (85.56 boxes), but the print run of Battle for Zendikar will be like 4 times higher.
2. Some people may prefer this new version, but for some others this is just a reprint, and reprints are "unpimp".
3. Some people prefer foreign cards. These lands will be available only in English.
4. Some people prefer uniform decks. These would probably be the only extended art cards in your deck.
5. Some people prefer old frame cards. That only applies to the allied fetchlands in this case.

So they will be expensive, but much less than what you said.

Herp a fucking Derp.

How will these newly printed fetchlands/shocklands affect the prices of Khans of Tarkir fetchlands?

They won't.

I would guess having fetchable duals in standard does way more to drive up demand for them than any effect from the special lands.

I know I plan on finishing up my playsets of ONS fetches while they are still reasonable.

To solve this, the first thing we did when we knew we were going back to Zendikar was to place the fetch lands in a set that was far enough away that they would not overlap in Standard for the entire lifespan of Battle for Zendikar.

So minimum timeframe for enemy fetches to be back = 18 months? Definitely not in Oath or the next block. MAYBE in the Fall 2016 block; if they're in the first set there would be 6 months of fetchless Standard; in the second set there would be 9 months of fetchless Standard and 9 months of Standard with fetches.
