It is already only about a buck. That seems pretty budget to me. Compare that to it's companion Path to Exile which are $6 plus. Still, good for everyone to have access to even cheaper staples.
Veteran Explorer is too group huggy for my tastes. I already have unused copies sitting around.
It's weird, years ago Swords was a thing they wouldn't dream of reprinting so often, but now it's in just about every single supplementary set with reprints. More Path to Exile would be nice.
Agree with others, would much rather see Path than swords again. Pretty stupid that the worse removal is 6x more expensive just because of reprint issues.

Well, it's not just because of "reprint issues." Path has been reprinted plenty of times (albeit in Masters sets), but Swords' price would be much higher if it were Modern legal.
I love, love, love the new art for Veteran Explorer. I agree it is reminicent of old school MTG art. Go Steve Bellidin His Theros Island is my favorite.

They don't want it in Standard. Personally, I think it's weird they're putting it in so many draftable sets: I don't want it in limited. (Mostly it's "way too good for white". Remember how white is supposed to be third for removal?)

Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!
"Call Mr. Plow. that's my name that name again is Mr. Plow."
Nice to see my fave non-Balance removal spell get a reprint, gimmuh all of them.

The pronoun game is alive and well. I can't say for certain which card you are discussing.
Great arts on great cards. Great reperints. You can never have too many swords.
