The rise of Zooicide. Infect being strong. General overall usefulness against 90% of decks in the format really.
That's true. It also hits Merfolk as well, so they may not be well positioned for very long at Tier 1 if everyone starts packing explosives. That's also one heck of a hard to find card these days. I have an easier time coming across spellskite.

Value is good. But Dredgevine isn't supposed to be about value. It's supposed to be about V-8; 2000 pounds of nitro boosted war vegetables. The more velocity, the better.

Do we think Goyf is going to keep dropping? They keep popping up on TCGplayer for like 105 - should I keep waiting? There doesn't look to be any signs that the descent is slowing.
Here in europe the prices are lower to 80-90€ for the FS version, i picked 2x FS NM for 92.00€ each, i think its a good price for it

Makes me sad that I sold my extra copy (which didn't match since it was MM) for $7, although this was over a year ago.
I would say the reason is that Brian Braun-Duin has been doing many articles and videos about Bant Eldrazi. The SB plays 3-4 copies of the card, which gives them some game against a terrible matchup of non-interactive Aggro. Many are flocking to Bant Eldrazi, which admittedly does seem pretty good. The uptick in players is probably due to it dominating the recent SCG Open.
It's funny because just a few days ago, I was going to ask here "what beats Bant Eldrazi?" Since I figured out myself that Burn, Affinity, and Infect beat it, but I don't like those, I settled on Grishoalbrand.
While I haven't played the matchup myself, I'm pretty sure GR Tron beats Bant Eldrazi. Tron is already favored against RG Eldrazi and that deck looks to be better against Tron than Bant Eldrazi would be.
Well, they're all I need to finish Jund. Ears peeled.
You could buy 2 copies of Tarmogoyf and then see what happens with the price. That way if it starts to go back up again you would've saved some money on those and could buy the remaining 2.
I like the way you think Seth, just what I needed to justify spending even more money on cards
Don't feel badly. I'm in the middle of a phase where I've been spending $1,000 a month on cards, despite having everything I need already. I have a personal goal to cut down to $100 per month in cards, not counting gas and tournament fees.

Well, if you can afford to spend 1k a month on cards you're probably doing OK. I'm torn between buying 4 Goyfs and just donating my collection to an animal shelter honestly, hahaha.
Have noticed that the Mutavault seems to have dropped a bit in price. Just approx 10 dollars each now for SP version at SCG. I could be wrong, but they seem to be a lot higher some months ago. What could have caused the price to drop?
And another question. Horizon Canopy is now at 80 dollars approximately. I have one extra copy of it, that I don't plan to use. Is this a good time to sell, or wait for the card to go up a bit more in price. Thanks.

I picked up a Horizon Canopy for maybe $95-100 Cad around February this year
anyone think we'll get ancestral vision in MM2017? it's seemed to hover between $50-60 CAD since its unbanning in modern

Ancestral feels like it would be a solid target. I'm personally not looking to buy ANY card that is modern playable that is over $50 until the set comes out. Anything could realistically be a target.
I will say though that I think Canopy and Grove might no be included - they're not big on printing one-off lands and I don't think they care to reprint the other 3 too much.

I feel that's a fair logic. Canopy and Grove would be sweet but I can see that whole cycle being reprinted, although I guess Graven cairns got reprinted in Lorwyn-Shadowmoor . Although the UW and BU do kind of have weird conditions.
Part of me just wants to wait for AV to go down but it stays the price it is

it's rather surprising for me that these mtg cards can go up so much in price..- @___@
Right? I had purchased some Mishra's Baubles way back when for like $3 each so I could try out the Grixis Delver deck that runs playsets of both Tasigur and the Angler (which was kind of a thing when DTK first came out) only to see that they've increased 10x in price.

It's kind of insane.
I felt the same way buying into the whole Eldrazi deck before Eldrazi winter hit in full swing. I bought Eye of Ugins at 2$ and Temples at .50c. Blew my mind when just a week later everything was worth 10-20x as much.
