What happens to modern as a format without LotV or Nahari? The answer is nothing. A couple decks become less good but the format remains the same. Now what happens if you remove bolt or tarmogoyf? The entire dynamic of the format changes. Niche cards don't do that. It doesn't matter how many decks a card is in, it matters what the impact is on the format. A new card making a tier 2 deck a tier one deck does not mean that card is staple. Now if said card generated a new archetype or create a tier deck from nothing, then I'd say it had a chance at being staple.
You lose two tier 1 decks that police the format and more combo decks move in and the game becomes a lot more uninteractive. Basically a return to the 2015 metagame of uninteractive decks ruling over the format. The numbers/results are there for Nahiri to be called a staple. This isn't an argument. Also you completely failed to mention the other cards in my list that don't apply to your definition of a staple (ravenger, chord of calling, decay, terminate). Without these staples the tiers look completely different.
Dude I care absolutely zero about your list. Seriously, none of the cards you listed are staple in my mind. Yeah the tiers look different but the format continues to be. God do I really have to spell it out. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A STAPLE CARD IN MODERN. I give all these hints. I push gently and still nothing, a wall of drrrr. The idea of staple cards is a myth, a fabrication created by card sellers to justify ridiculous prices for pieces of cardboard. JEEEEZ.
You wanna know what is staple in Modern? We are. We are the only thing that modern cannot exist without.

You don't call "dying to removal" if the removal is more expensive in resources than the creature. If you have to spend BG (Abrupt Decay), or W + basic land (PtE) to remove a 1G, that is not "dying to removal". Strictly speaking Goyf dies to removal, but actually your removal is dying to Goyf.
As someone who frequently pays with black based deck featuring Lili I have to absolutely agree with those who are saying she is more essential than bolt. While bolt is quite good at what it does, it only ever represents a 1 for 1, and there are plenty of other 1 for 1 removal spells like it--the fact that junk exists as a top tier deck with a similar shell is evidence of this point. At three mana LotV is removal, hand disruption and a threat that must be dealt with before she ults (or if youre a creature deck, before she is able to -2 again). She is often a two for one and is good against many combo, creature and control decks--shes a wonderful balance of efficiency and versatility. Plus as a bonus: all of her abilities (and card typing when in the yard) work to feed goyf.
Standard set? Maybe the next Modern Masters? Common? Uncommon?
All of those should be reprinted, but because of the price of Inquisition (and because I'm salty about EMA doing this) it will be rare just so its price doesn't go down much. Serum Vision has been skipped over so many times at this point that I'm thinking it will be like Damnation and never get reprinted.
Steelshaper's Gift though would require a set with enough equipment to make it useful, so it probably won't be reprinted as soon as the others.

Do you also rant about Valentine's Day because it's a commercial fabrication? Would you buy a diamond ring to propose with, even though the diamond industry fabricated that tradition? Who cares where the term originated. It's part of the lexicon. Ask a random Modern player at an event what cards are Modern staples and you'll get a list of cards, many of which fall outside of your incredibly narrow and unique (and in my opinion, incorrect) definition.
Actually, yes I do. And yes you'll get a list of cards and no it's not my fault they don't know what "staple" actually means. And my definition is just the one in the dictionary man. I didn't write it. People want to take real words and incorporate them into a fantasy game, fine, but define the goddamn words for what they are being used for and make sure everybody knows what they mean. I mean if you want staple to mean important cards for the format and the meta as it currently stands, then damn it, say that. I know, instead of staples refer to them as "crux cards." By, definition, crux means, among other things, a main or central feature. Crux cards would then be the main or central cards in a format. Taaaaaadaaaaaaah. There, no more ambiguity or semantic tom****ery.

Every group of people who do something that other people don't do incorporates words with slightly different meanings than the dictionary meaning in order to suit the purposes of whatever venture it is. A "strike" means something different in bowling than it does in baseball. That doesn't mean either is wrong, just that it needs context. You're the only person I've come across who has this view of what "staple" means for Magic: the Gathering formats, so in my opinion there is no ambiguity, just one person not conforming to the context.
Well sir thank you,I'll take that as a compliment.

Nearly every white duel-commander or highlander deck.
One printing Mythic from a 3rd set as well.
Basically a non-factor right now in Modern.
*Regarding Staples, I get a bit upset every time I see it. It's basically semantics and no 2 people in the world will agree 100% on what the staples of the format are. If I played at an LGS with 8 players and 4 of them were on Mono Green Devotion and 1 on Elves, I would be hard pressed to not call Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx a staple. Is Karn Liberated a staple? Is Kitchen Finks? What about Stony Silence? Mox Opal? I may refer to staples as the cards that are "commonly" played in Modern, but I never try to push my definition on others. Just my 2 cents.
I've seen some Kiki Chord decks run it, not sure what else, are the jeskai decks running it?
So, define what a tempo deck is in regards to magic? Control? Archetype? These are just three that have driven me nuts in the past with people using the term and talking about very different things. What is apparent each time I do get this bee in my bonnet is that there is no established definition for many "slang" terms that the magic community has adopted. As much as I would like for there to be an official MTG dictionary that everyone goes by, or even to use the actual OED definition in some cases, people will usually just assign their own meaning and not change.
For my part a staple is a card that season after season, or perhaps cyclically, keeps being a relevant card in the most played decks. This is a useful definition for me because it is how I separate out cards that I have put in deck after deck into two binders because it would be a pain to repeatedly have to put them back in their set binders. I can't even begin to count the number of times I have put Serum Visions into a tier 1-1.5 deck, only to take them out when I need the cards to build another top deck. That is what defines a "staple" for me. The loss of Kitchen Finks from the format would probably change it little, but even if it isn't the most relevant card right now I am confidant it will be again. I know where to look for it when that day comes.
Nahiri does not fit this because there has not been enough time to judge it, however since I also put all of my Planeswalkers in those binder regardless (just easier to have them all in one place) it matters little.
Oh, and I (for one) do not think that Modern would look all that different if Goyf were banned (which should not happen). It would just be replaced by the next most efficient beater in the same way that Serum Visions replaced Ponder and Preodained when they were banned. that does not make Goyf any less of a staple as far as I'm concerned.
Linvala has a combination of being relatively uncommon even for a Mythic, and always popping up in Modern sideboard as the meta changes. If you look every time the price has gone up it never really comes back to it's old norm, so over time it has become pretty spendy for a card that is rarely ever more than a 2x in the 75.
I do think that whatever is driving her up to $50 is likely temporary and if I wanted to bother I would drop the couple I have and get them when they are back at $35 or less. I doubt they will be up for more than a few months.
Linvala has a history of being expensive. Before pod was banned she was $40+ and now she is back. She is a mythic angel from before they really started over printing sets, and has a pretty unique effect. I can see here staying 40+ until she is reprinted.
Whichever you need to use for a deck you plan to play. If you're speculating, I'd avoid both of them as they are ridiculously high right now. The time to jump in was long ago. If you're planning to buy one, I'd go with the Horizon Canopy. Because it has the Future Sight frame, it will likely be more resistant to a reprint than Tarn would be.
Nahiri did not last finally, right? Huge drop during the latest days. The weird thing is that there are some Standard lists(4c-rite company) that encorporate her, in addition to Jeskai and Kiki Chord.
she dropped to 40 on face to face. I might look into getting some this weekend
Nahiri did not last finally, right? Huge drop during the latest days. The weird thing is that there are some Standard lists(4c-rite company) that encorporate her, in addition to Jeskai and Kiki Chord.
One factor is that we are just about hitting peak supply to play ratio. From here on out less boxes will be opened, with much of the additional copies in the marketplace coming from redemption, all the while more and more will be bought by speculators and folks like me who put them in their modern tool box- effectively removing them from existence.
Clearly her hype spike having run it's course is also a factor, but the last one I picked up was traded at $27 in value, and I am comfortable paying that.
Pretty much agree with all of this. It drives me batty that we have access to the greatest resource ever invented (i.e. the internet) and we cannot seem to get by stupid semantics. So frustrating.
As for the "staple" term, I don't think it can or should be used for the format as a whole. Could it be used for a deck, certainly. For a meta, sure, but that gets to be awfully tough to judge based on natural meta swings. As a format though, based on the original definition of "staple" in this context, I don't believe there are any, or to put it another way, the format is healthy enough to survive anything foreseeable.

Nahiri may be more expensive than now if you wait for the week-end, as Nahiri + Emrakul hype in standard is likely going to (somewhat) drive its price up.

You obviously do since you took the time to respond to my post. My point stands that cards that are in the top 50 most played cards are staples while your definition doesn't fit the concept of a staple.

Well, the new Emrakul has been spoiled and it has a Mindslaver with a downside on-cast ability. But Nahiri doesn't cast the card she finds, it instead gets put on the battlefield without being cast. Are Standard players going to start packing 4 Nahiri + Emrakul just for a 13/13 flying, trample, haste, pro-instants threat for a single turn at turn 6?

Well, to enable their pet planeswalker to have a two turn Deal 13 flying, trample damage ability; and then get to cast Emmy on the cheap from the Looting you've been getting from Nahiri's +1, I think they might. I'm not saying Nahiri is going to break the bank, but I'm saying you should expect *some* gains this week from hype alone.

There will be tons of hype pre launch. Whether she will stay high or fall back again will be determined by her success in standard. Hype spikes prices, results sustain prices.
