They were all on display during Grand Prix Vancouver. As Modern-tournament spikes go, this one was pretty mild, actually. Not too many things blew up. Those that did probably will subside a bit.
Collar is tech with Eldrazi because it works very well with Walking Ballista and Endbringer. I don't know anything about Cheerios except that it did not top 8, so... not sure where the spike is coming from.
To add to this, Noxious Revival screams Johnny/mid-level Spike card. These types of players love to experiment with this card. Guess it's not too much of a surprise then. Also, some people might be trying to replace probe with other Phyrexian mana cards. I know it doesn't have a 1-1 correlation (Probe to this), but I've seen people brew and try to patch up their decks with strange tech like this post-ban.
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.
3 cards spoiled for MM17 - Griselbrand, Domri Rade and some jank angel. Presumed Snapcaster Mage on the box.
3 cards keeping me from preordering MM17. Griselbrand has never recovered after rotating after Standard. He's only just now cracking $10 again and he's going straight back down. The other two aren't T1 modern playable. And worth practically nothing.

Well, if that is the general census from the community, then it should keep the prices of the packs down from going over MSRP. This means for reasonably priced sealed and draft tournaments.
I'm now hoping (betting) on weaker than previous Modern Masters (sorry, but call me an opportunist).

Well...maybe a little stronger than Modern Masters 2015. Some balance between the first and second would be best (IMO as strong if not better than the first Modern Masters would be spectacular -- but I recognize the reasons why that can't quite be the case).

This quote is hilarious. You lead us to a statement that has the same weight as you stating it. Why wouldn't you just link to the Professor statement? WTF is "the Professor" anyway?

Because I wanted to drop the news ASAP, then get the link to the source (which is now included in my above post). So.... yeah.
Everything except for his official spoiler card is speculation on his part. I mean, yeah, it definitely looks like Snapcaster, but that's not in any way confirmed yet.

Oh I'm not confirming it, just seems to work out in my mind because they never seem to reuse the Invitational art on these. And speculation with enough weight could indeed affect prices.

That is absolutely not Teferi, given how badly that clashes with his aesthetic. (Although he was quite the troublemaker back in the day!) Almost assuredly not Meddling Mage either, since the color palate indicates it's definitely mono-U. The artists are actually given pretty specific instructions about aligning their palate with the colors of the card. Voidmage Prodigy is a possibility, but... is that really going to be the poster-child for a MM release? Doubtful.
It's not guaranteed to be Snaps, but I'd say it's the best bet by far.

If memory serves me correct, there should (will) be a dip in prices for a small while on some of the Modern staples being reprinted, such as w/ the ZEN block fetchlands... right?

Absolutely. In fact, with the amount of product that rumor is putting on the streets, that dip should be both significant and prolonged.
Zen fetch prices are already starting to drop on TCG.

Yup, all are down $2-$5 apiece since this morning.
However, box preorders on TCGP have gone from $185 to $200 in the same time.

Probable reprint in MM 2017 and Goyf just ain't what it used to be?
My Kamigawa cube.

Fatal Push probably didn't help.
These are the jumpers (pre-price jump/post-price jump):
Basilisk Collar: $9.81/$23.44
Noxious Revival: $1.96/$4.00
Paradise Mantle: $1.74/$3.49
Are there any decks using these cards, hence raising the popularity?

Well, they just announced enemy fetches and Damnation, so ... probably not worse than MM15.
I'm kind of surprised that enemy fetches are here, but hey, more fetches, right?

Would anyone be surprised if it ended up being new art for meddling mage, voidmage prodigy or teferi, mage of zhalfir?
