Hi, I am in the magic community since 5 months. I only play standard for now. Since I have never experienced a standard rotation I was wandering wich card I should sell. I have all dual land from Kaladesh and Amonkhet, all plainswalker, basicly all mythic card their is out there plus the good rare cards ; Glorybringner, Heroic intervention, metalic mimic, torential gearhulk and so. Should I get rid of them ? Will I lose my money if I keep them now instead of seling and bying back in 2 years? I have look at shodow over innistrad dual land prices and they are very low...I'm scared that my foil batanical sanctum drops from a 20$ to a 5$..
Could you tell me about your experiences with tjat manner?
Nearly all the cards that are standard legal will drop in value when they rotate. Cards that have some use in older formats will maintain some value and grow steadily over time. The Shadow duels are nearly strictly worse versions of other lands used in older formats so that is why they are dirt cheap. There just isn't much reason to use them in modern or EDH (two of the biggest sources of card value, along with casual). botanical sanctum has use in these formats and is part of a cycle where one of the lands is +$20 for non foil versions (blackcleave cliffs). Sanctum is much newer and has a lot more copies in circulation but if some modern deck appears in a few years that wants access to both green and blue on turn 1 then I could see it being a $10 land. A foil would probably be somewhere in the $25 to $35 range.
All the above is speculation though and it is really up to you if you think it is worth it to hold on to a particular card, but in 99% of cases cards lose value post rotation.
Also to note rotation won't happen until the fall set releases, so I would keep onto them a little longer. Normally their prices starts to drop in the summer.
If you want to sell, I would start thinking about it now. Probably wait to see if anything from Dominaria combos with your cards, which might spike the price.
