Sorry I'm not clearer. The main thing I'm asking is: should I trade my Wasteland towards Reserved List duals -- even if they're duals that don't see as much play? Or should I save this Wasteland and trade it towards other blue duals? Which is more likely to happen/liquid?
Wasteland trading towards blue duals/Bayou
or
Taiga+Badlands into blue duals/Bayou?
Reprints the one card that people point to when saying that art objectifies women.
Well done Wizards.
Liliana does not objectify women in any way at all. We have gotten to a point in our society that every single picture of a women must be objectifying a women in some negative way......blah blah blah.. That is not the case. (((Sarcasm)))Picture of a girl drinking a milk shake, must be sex related and putting women down, picture of girl sitting on a beach, picture of a girl driving a car, picture of a girl on the moon at a new space station.)))
You have a picture of an attractive strong power women who girls dress up as for anime conventions. What more do you want? The picture is fine, happy to see a reprint. Sick of of seeing people claim that everything in existence must be putting women down. Then all I have to do is replace the word "women" with anything else to get the same mentality; fish, cats, arabs, blacks, jews, men, environment, whites, chinese, old people, etc. It doesn't matter what word I put in. Stop sucking life out of everything man. That artwork of her is awesome. Stop putting stuff down man. Just stop. If the picture was really as negative as you claim she would totally nude, in a kitchen, making sandwiches and giving blow jobs. Her abilities would be horrible as well. +1 do nothing -2 do nothing -6 do nothing. Instead liliana of the veil is an amazing planeswalker comparable to jace, the mind sculpter with great art to appreciate.
My suggestion listen to some comedy radio for a while, pandora is free, youtube is free there is something out there for you. ***** go make fun of somebody. The whole world is so serious and campaigning for some cause, or someones rights, everything is a hate crime, racist, sexist. blah blah blah.
"O no mcdonalds must be slandering a hate crime against skinny people every time they make a big mac." hahaha jeeze You're just someone perpetuating another groups negative perspective that they've made you believe is correct. Look at the picture for a hour and tell me what's wrong with it? I don't see anything.
I have heard vague rumors of a moustache-dispensing vending machine in a distant laundromat, across the street from a tattoo parlor. However, this information is shaky, and time is of the essence.
What's everybodies view on the Temples? They probably will rise once shocks rotate in the fall? Should I wait to get rid of them, or do you think they won't go up that much? Any help is appreciated!
It looks like $75 for $85. It's probably a good trade now. I can see FOIL Abrupt Decay being worth more some day (I realize that Lily will go up too).

I bought the Tabernacle when it was still cheap. Recently got interested in picking some clean UNL power. Would you take that trade?
NM Tabernacle is $700. It's probably a decent deal. Tabernacle is a niche card in a popular format, Legacy. Moxes are only used in Vintage. I believe that Moxes will always be worth more than a Tabernacle, but the popularity of the format is testing my beliefs on that one.

Tough call. Moxen will always be prestigious just because of the name, but Tabernacle has high utility. I would say that if you want the Moxen, take the deal. Moxes will also be slightly easier to move, as people are always looking to "upgrade" to power. Personally, I would keep the Tabernacle, since it's NM. Those are difficult to find.

Ended up taking the Mox. I can see power prices adjusting some more. Power in June on MTGO and all might generate interest... althought that's not why I'm doing this. Thanks for the input!
Take my opinion with a grain of salt, but I would just keep the Savannah and friends. Condition is a big deal especially when it comes to duals and a Wasteland. If the Tundra was NM I would take it, but I just don't see putting a NM Wasteland and a less popular dual like Savannah towards a worse condition but more popular dual.
I'm also going to shamelessly bump my post from before as I would really appreciate feedback on it. Being the last post on the previous page really buried my post.

I'm not a huge fan of foils, so for the first trade I like pile A since you kept a Decay. Others my disagree because of future value potential.
Second trade I feel like A is better. Snapcaster is a beast of a card played everywhere that'll keep going up. Fulminator Mage I just don't get why he's worth so much and if you look it up, he's been on a decline as of late. Only see's play in Modern and usually a sideboard card at that. I would rather the utility of a multi-format all star than a niche sideboard card regardless of value.
Trading into Thalia seems good. I don't know about the second trade, though - you're giving up two decent rares and a foil rare for two chances at the Mana Confluence lottery? Eidolon is what, $2, and foil rares are generally $3ish? So $7 against $8, but that's if you buy packs (don't buy packs).

Yeah, the first one seemed great, especially since the Thaumaturges were part of my JOU surplus and I wanted Thalia for a deck.
I didn't want JOU packs so badly, but it still seemed like a good deal. Eidolon is going for a bit less than $1 on store buylists, Silence 50c, so I had thought $1 or $2 for the foil. So $4 or so for 2 packs. Yeah, packs aren't a great deal compared to buying singles, but particularly cheap packs are a good deal. This guy was willing to trade them cheap because they were tournament prizes he didn't really want.
