Is it just me, or is Oloro's deck laughably bad value compared to the others? I see Nevinyrral's Disk and Kongming as the only reprints of note, and Kongming will probably crash quickly.
Erm, is this a x can be 0? Can it really be WW: Put target nonland permanent on top of its owner's library at instant speed? Because that would be busted. Are you sure it isn't X has to be 1 or greater?

Yeah, it's pretty good... the only real barrier is double W.
It's an instant speed 5/5 trampler for 4. Wtf do you people want seriously? It has applications in populate/ above the curve beats decks, or in Bant control/ flash. I seriously think anyone mad at this card for any reason other than losing an attacker to instant speed wurm, should go home and make their own awesome card game and leave the rest of us alone.

The value of the deck depends on how much people value the reprints. I value Oloro's deck quite highly because 1. I love the flavor of Esper and 2. it has tons of amazing cards in it that are quite relevant to an Esper-style deck.
Not all of us are looking at these decks wondering if we'll be able to hock the individual cards for more money than what the deck was worth.
So, so, so many reprints that make me happy. Wizards, THIS is how you do decks!! I'm very happy for these cards being reprinted:
Command Tower
Sol Ring
Temple of the False God
Avenger of Zendikar!!
Mosswort Bridge
Myr Battlesphere (always wanted one but never had one)
Phyrexian Delver (Same as above)
Sphinx of the Steel Wind
Wall of Reverence
Lim Dul's Vault
Nevinyrral's Disk
Phyrexian Reclamation
Swiftboots (No Greaves though? That's kind of sad)
Contested Cliffs (needed one)
Eternal Dragon (YES. I've wanted one of these forever, and new frame for my Dragon collection!)
Mayaeal (always wanted a copy)
Mold Shambler (I only own like one copy despite buying a box)
Rampaging Baloths (Love this card)
Ravenous Baloth (never owned one)
Boros Charm (always good to have more)
Harmonize (Same as above)
Wrath of God (Holy crap! <3)
Goblin Sharpshooter (always wanted some of these)
Hua Tao (NEVER seen this guy before. He seems pretty cool)
Sakura-Tribe Elder (can't have enough of these guys)
Goblin Bombardment (Great card, even though I have a set)
Night Soil (Good stuff, though I usually prefer ooze)
Reincarnation (Another cool card that I didn't know existed)
Spoils of Victory (Yay P3K reprints)
Tooth and Claw (Never seen this card either! Neat)
Baleful Strix (Actually a little sad because I was trying to sell mine but it needed to be reprinted )
Thraximunder (Great reprint. I already had one, but he was getting expensive so that's good for those who wanted one)
Decree of Pain
Prosperity
Star Storm (my only copy is in horrible condition)
Karmic Guide (this makes me so, so happy)
Lu Xun (Great reprint, this guy's $20!)
Mirror Entity (Could probably use another one)
Rubinia Soulsinger (Yay for cheap black border version with new frame!)
Arcane Denial (I hear it's decent)
Basalt Monolith (traded my only copy. Here's a cheap BB version)
Wash Out (only copy I have is in terrible shape)
All in all, lots of goodies. Moreso than the last decks, I think. And that's not even including the brand new cards and the ones who's effects I don't know yet!
I am in love with these decklists, they really pulled some great cards together. Personally I am really excited for the stuff that is finally coming into new border, namely Basalt Monolith and Goblin Bombardment.

Storm Crow is strictly worse than Seacoast Drake.
X can be 0. Sam Stoddard said so in the article.

I think you mean Tooth and Claw, which is much worse.

Seems like a rather uh, extremely staple removal for eternal formats in-color. At a very small printing. Seems all sorts of wrong to me.

actually Bant's is Rubinia and Jund's is Sek'kuar.
might wanna read that again. (it's Tooth and Claw, not T&N.)
really sad that Disk is only in one deck - the one deck that i am otherwise least impressed/excited about.
Feel free to tell me yours!

I'm not too upset about this, seeing as how they've been pretty good about making (some) Planeswalkers available in Duel Decks.
Besides, everyone would buy the decks for the Planeswalkers instead of the other things.
