The reverse applied to me. Sold all of my revised duals, and then migrated to Modern -- because in Modern I have more people to play with.

I remember Karn Liberated to be only 10$, and people would laugh at someone using him when he was Standard legal. Did not expect him to blow up to almost 100$ each. Also commited a mistake with Horizon Canopies, have 3 of them future sight.. sold the first one for 50, next one for 60, and then thinking it would drop because of the reprint sold the last one for only 30, too late when I realized the reprint is limited in amount and canopies blew up in price again.
Terravore is easily 7/7 or 8/8, assuming the opponent also use fetchlands and the graveyard is not touched.
Have ordered a reaper from SCG for testing. It sees itself when it dies, so you draw a card if the reaper get's killed in combat.
I see the troll growing to at least 6/6 if things go right. Worth testing as a one or two of in lists with black splash. People won't really side grave hate against us, so a top decked troll has a lot of food in the yard.
When WoTC printed the khans fetch lands, I remember some holders of Onslaught fetches panic selling in a facebook group, they knew it's over. The days of 100$ polluted delta and 100$ flooded strands are gone, it's the end of an era. With the printing, a heavy burden that has been around for years finally lifted.. a lot more people were able to afford a better manabase.
Now, they just need to reprint the enemy colored fetches in a Standard set again.

The Charnel Troll looks interesting. At 3 cmc, it can be assumed that at least one or two creatures already died when the troll is cast.. and it would probably have dealt some damage or killed by the opponent before you run out of things to exile from the yard. Well, and if the troll is found to be bad in testings... another card to consider might be Midnight Reaper.
Oh, you mean Hierarch? I remember the time that card was 30$... that time people were complaining that 30$ is too expensive for a mere mana dork.
Hopefully, there would be a modern masters set next year with Hierarch included in it.
Everything getting reprinted into the dirt might mean the end MTG. The prices of some cards promotes speculation and interest in the secondary market.. and that helps keep the game alive.
