On SCG, Auriok Champion, Bitterblossom, and Hero of Bladehold are all marked as soldout. Are people moving to BW tokens all of a sudden? Or is SCG predicting a move? Perhaps it is nothing.

Not sure...I sold out of BW Tokens a while ago because I was tired of playing a midrange deck where I never felt favored...Champion and Bitterblossom are def good pieces. Not sure about Bladehold. I never played with it.

Grove more expensive than Taiga, what the actual hell?!
It makes sense, if you think about it. The only decks that really play Taiga are Lands and Belcher (edit: and Loam). Even Punishing Jund has been moving away from Taiga. Any deck that plays Taiga plays more Groves, since the majority of those also play Punishing Fire.
Grove is up to $80+ already and probably will settle into the $100+ range in the near future.
It went up way too fast for that to be sustainable. Two days ago it was about $65, and right now on MTGStocks it is listing at about $90. I think that all playable Modern cards will be going up as we near PT. RG Tron has been a really solid contender for a while, and has a very favorable game against the Processor deck everyone is peeing their pants over, but I think this is a spike that will not be long lived. $70 seems possible given that it is only about 12% more than the December low when people were saving their money.
Eldrazi can easily take GR Tron, GQ + Surgical Extraction, this deck will pee on you if you are not careful. The spike will get higher when standard rotates! Wasteland Strangler could be $10 for the normal rare, people just opened the boxes like crazy for the lands and an oversupply hit the market.
Grove has been hovering from 60-70 for weeks now. Availability is questionable though. Its Karn that should be watched out for as it spiked by $10 in just a day.
I'd buy Karn foils ASAP. There's only a $10 difference b/w the MM foils and non-foils at the moment. I would've picked up more than 2, but the money tree in my backyard hasn't sprouted yet.
Thats true, i sold one MM foil for 55€ and then buy 4x MM japanese for 38€/each, so foil version its cheap in comparison

The mistake that many many people are getting into is that they think all of the eldrazi decks are the same - there are 6/7 versions and they all play very differently and all have different answers. I play mono black and am not scared of tron at all, but the 'ramp' version of mono black gets ***** on by tron.
Where did all the promises of reprints go? Theros block came and went without an obvious Serum Visions reprint, Khans only gave us half of the fetches, now it looks like Zendikar is about to come and go without Goblin Guide, Enemy Fetches, or even an Inquisition of Kozilek...in a set that features a battle against him? This has gone beyond missing obvious chances, and is starting to feel like it's being done on purpose.
If Lily is not in SOI, the earliest will be a MM probably in 2017, but I won't bet neither on her being in SOI nor not being. And if she's not, there is no guarantee, she will be in MM17.
Verdant Catacombs is hard to say when a reprint will come. That it will is pretty sure, but I#d say, not until BFZ rotates because of fetchable Duals.
Also both could get some sudden appearance in a Modern Event Deck or stuff like that, but that's just not predictable.
the reprint in SOI is what I'm worried about. I mean I'd like to finish my set of Lilies but if she gets reprinted then I all of a sudden gave up a lot to get 2. Although I'd get more value out of the Lilies than the Catacombs as I'd actually use the Lilies

the card itself really isn't worth the card board its printed on...does it serve a purpose? Sure its a blue 1 drop that might not be a 1/1. I would not put it in a list and expect to win a PTQ or GP though.

I wouldn´t worry too much about her being in SOI. It would be a very reasonable inclusion flavour-wise, but my money is on her being in MM 2017...because SOI will sell well without her but MM-sets need the chase-rares to justify the high prize
yeah that's more of what I'm feeling. I wouldn't be upset about her being in MMA2017 as that's over a year away and I'd get value out of her by then.
I mean trading fetches sucks but I haven't used my verdants since trading for them a few days before all fetches jumped
Modern Masters also follows a timeline. From the WOTC press release announcing MM2015:
'Modern Masters 2015 Edition takes players back to some of the most remarkable planes from recent history, including Zendikar, Mirrodin, Ravnica, Lorwyn, Kamigawa, and Alara.'
From the Modern masters 2013 press release:
'Cards are reprints from Eighth Edition through Alara Reborn'
Now I'm no expert on the order of set releases, but it seems WOTC has a plan for gradually including newer sets with each subsequent release. Keep that in mind as you anticipate possible MM17 inclusions.

Can anybody find Greater Auramancy? I was interested in making an enchantment prison deck, but it looks like the start of Modern season is not the right time to find pieces.
I suspect it's Eldrazi hype. I will say that it has been on the radar of people recently. At the last GP in California (I can't remember where it was now), a vendor was trying to buy my Night and my foil Night. They didn't offer enough and I had enough other cards to sell, so I didn't sell them, despite never using the card. But I was pretty surprised that they were offering $8 for my Night and $30 for my foil Night at the time. I was actually surprised to see them that high and this was months ago.

Extra copy of which, Night of Souls' Betrayal or Sword of the Meek? If you're asking Sword, I wouldn't be caught with fewer than 4, although I personally have way more than that.

think its worth dumping a set of catacombs for 2 Lilies if my verdants are just sitting in a binder and I'm more likely to use 2 Lilies?
are either likely to see a major change in price or reprint within the next 6 months?

Edit: I stand corrected, it's up well over $20 now on Ebay. Though TCG still has some for $12-14 NM.
quantity is super low, plus it hoses Infect and good against Affinity.
Crazy. Night of Souls' Betrayal is a must in the Mono Black list, although I personally like BW.
I suspect we will see a lot of buyouts coming soon. A friend on facebook told me that Sword of the Meek went up.
