I know that I've read in some other threads that this would be insane as this would definitely push an already top-tier deck in Standard (Mono-Black) even over the top.
I currently have an extra copy an I'm on the fence on selling her while she's still at her current price. I kept one copy for EDH-purposes and me (or my playgroup) don't plan on using her in Modern or Legacy.
Everyone's thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated!
Reprinting Liliana of the Veil would make sense storywise. But she would be too powerful for Mono-Black in Standard. That's a tricky question... I would probably sell it right now. I won't go much higher anymore.

on the other hand that would probably last just from the release of m15 until when Khans comes out...at that point pack rats, night veil spectre and lifebane zombie all rotate out..

I know we're getting a new Garruk in this core set correct? Is he still going to be green or will he change colors? If he's going to be the new black PW, then I guess Lili is safe for the time being. (And if he does become the black PW, who'll be the green one? Nissa?)

No one knows anything for certain, but it has been heavily hinted at that the new Garruk will be black or green/black (I am better on the latter). Marketing goods (such as the new display figures and Pop! figures) would lead me to guess that Nissa will be seeing a return as our mono green. Spoilers should be starting soon, no?

I will always firmly stand by the belief that Magic is a game first and a collectable second.

There has been a lot of discussion about this lately. I'd suggest you search the rumor-mill forum for "liliana", "liliana of the veil" etc.
The thread with the Chain Veil playmat has something, as has the thread about the planeswalker-action figures (of which Liliana and Nissa are both represented).
Then you can weigh the different views/informations and make up your own mind.
There is nothing definitive, although a lot of people speculate that Garruk will be B/G, liliana B, and Nissa G.
What a weird idea. I hope they use it to free up space for more interesting cards in the core set, but judging from the contents of those decks I'm not holding my breath.
Yeh I am not sure how this really makes much sense. Are people going to play shivan dragon anywhere outside of draft? Why bother stating that they are in standard?
Other than that, it does seem like a better strategy than printing 999 sets with boomerang.
what does everyone else think about the Darksteel citadel reprint? So random. Not like they're too rare for building affinity or anything.
In an article they said that UR's theme is going to be artifacts so that they have something to do in limited. Pretty odd reason, but I guess that's enough.
