That's not too surprising with the W/U blink archtype they have. This can be absurd in limited if paired with the right creature, although it's definitely not the price of admission that you hope for out of a booster. Still a decent creature in its own right.

They weren't expensive to begin with, but I've never had the luck of running into a foil one in the LGS nor the binders of other people (I don't buy online), so now they'll be easier to find (and even cheaper). Good for me I guess.
Looks to be sick in limited with the blink archetype they have. They say it's UW but it looks bant to me with the likes of thragtusk and surely other good blink green creatures in the set. Foil demand for this card is crazy too, especially because AVR foils are AIDS.

"Yawgmoth," Freyalise whispered as she set the bomb, "now you will pay for your treachery."
I swear, some lucky bastard will open this + Venser, Shaper Savant on prerelease event.
1U, bounce that creature. 1U, bounce that spell. 1U, bounce that land...sorry, were you planning on doing stuff?
Not that this pair will likely be common in Limited, but just in case, here's hoping they included some split second removal. Sudden Shock would be a good answer to Venser.

MTGS Wikia Article about "New World Order"
Every time I read a comment about "Well if this card had card draw/trample/haste/indestructible/hexproof/life gain...", I think "You're missing the point." They're armchair developer comments that fail to take into account the card's role in the greater Limited and Standard environment. No, it may not be as good as whatever card you're comparing it to. There's a reason for that. Not every burn spell is Lightning Bolt, nor does it need to be or should be.
PSA to everyone who keeps forgetting about the Reserved List:
You're on a website dedicated to talking about MtG. You're only a few keystrokes away from finding out what cards are on the Reserved List. You're also only a few keystrokes away from finding out why some cards on the Reserved List got foil printings in FtV, as Judge promos, or whatnot, as well as why that won't happen again. Stop doing this.
No surprise of the theme of UW but this is a incredible reprint now I can snag this for edh.
This card is currently at an all-time high price of less than $2.50 and was less than half that price a year ago so what were you waiting for?
Don't want to put words in Ryperior's mouth, but he's talking EDH, so he may well be chasing a foil copy. Foil Deadeyes have been through the roof for a while thanks to EDH demand.

Were they all that scarce or expensive before now? They're around $2.50 right now.

I hope for a full cycle of M11 Titans, to be honest. Looks like the new art for Terminate makes it more possible.
