Yes, I know, probably not the card Maro means, but for someone who always likes to be tricky with technicalities it's poor form if Mishra's melded version is actually the second. For shame, Maro.
Maybe he isn't counting that because the previous meld cards don't work in constructed.
I have been waiting so long for a Gix card, it can be pretty awful and I'll still play it in tournaments; but my shot in the dark is that the
Ward — Sacrifice a permanent
is Gix-related.
Honestly, that Ward ability is strong enough that I half-expect it to appear on melded Titania… or to be an emblem.
the meld Titania could potentially be “protection from everything” she’s considered a goddess
Personally, I can't wait to see the card that gives your permanents Ward - Sacrifice a permanent. I'm sticking around for that. I'm always interested in see what else they can use as a cost to targeting something with Ward.

I don't think it'll get that high save for some monumental ability/abilities included on the card in some way. I mean did Progenitals get that high when it was released in Conflux?

Neither Progenitus nor Hexdrinker is that high now.

It really depends on what else it does and what color(s) it is in. (And if it has Commander playability)
Same is true for every other card clued here, probably more so because "protection from everything" is gimmick text that's likely to have a very large mana payment behind it without saving the creature from a Day of Judgment
Also I am not sure how many here are aware of how expensive Standard has become to play the top tier cards in paper. Its much more than you may think.
PS Hexdrinker was NEVER Standard legal either.
There's a valid point to be made here. Stuff like The Meathook Massacre and Sheoldred are pretty high for having been printed so recently, more generally an issue with printing staple cards at mythic. Overall, I'm not sure standard's more expensive than it's been - I'm thinking of 2007 when you wanted Urborg, Damnation, Tarmogoyf and shock lands to play standard competitively and aside from those two cards, current standard feels cheaper, but I do agree that $50 is more than a card in standard ought to be.
However, singling out an arbitrary line of text and declaring that specific card no one has seen yet is going to be the next big money card is not an effective way to go about making that point.

Or ever that I know of...
it’s not gonna be that high
the median from all the cards with that ability is $13.35
Has anyone looked at the price for plain old Sheoldred, the Apocalypse? Yep 50 bucks.

Man Hexdrinker is such a cool card... I'm so sad that it's pretty much completely forgotten in modern

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. We will see if I am right or wrong.
PS: Who says it will be a creature with Protection from Everything? Teferi's Protection Again just an opinion or assumption. It may not be so.

Yeah, 300% profit margins are terrible and no one should ever want those Kappa.
