It's good to see Vines of Vastwood get reprinted. Overall, there seems to be a mix of good cards that made the final cut. I just sense that there were some missed spaces for reprinting considering the design. There's a few artifacts that seem like total surprises.
Those boxes are not worth $240, nevermind 280 now... the only thing that would prop the price up is that not enough boxes get sold, so not enough supply enters the market and the current prices for rares/mythics stay the same. Otherwise, even with a small decrease in price for the good rares, MMA2015 just isn't worth it. Disappointing.
Not a single new art and not a single good unknown card!!!
No Blood moon and no Goblin guide!!!
Is this a joke?
Forget those, there's no Serum Visions!
And no Inquisition neither! No Ensnaring Bridge...
Massive letdown... Specially the absence of new art...
I was really hopng for Crucible of Worlds in that space. That is a card that I should have just bitten the bullet and got years ago; but, there was a space in this set. I was also surprised there was no Doubling Season considering the Green design space.
I am reading into this full list as an effort to reprint staples and dropping the ball on the rest of the set in fears of being overpowered or printing too much value. Dare I think that MM1 had a much better crop of uncommons?
Really happy I didn't get a box. Modern Masters 1 seems like such a better set for drafting. I'm just going to pick up my playset of Fulminator Mage and skip town.
Wow, I am surprised. Not a single one of black's rares is playable. No Inquisition of Kozilek either. I thought that was pretty much guaranteed. No gatekeeper, no nighthawk, no good vampires at all. Several commons and uncommon missing that should have been here. This looks like some bad joke. The other colors don't look much better either. There is no reason for the $10 MSRP on these things. I think conspiracy actually had better value in it.

Whew. Some pretty crappy rares in this one. I feel bad for anyone trying the 'goyf lottery with this one. I hope MM16 is a little more realistic with the rare value and the msrp. for the price, stuff like ghost council and its 1-2 dollar ilk should be uncommon.

Do my eyes deceive me or is Vines of Vastwood the sole valuable common in the set?
Smash To Smithereens too. But holy crap... they really put out a ridiculously low value second half to the spoilers. Luckily the first half was so pricy.
I feel bad for anyone who buys sealed (like always).
The jank is strong with this one. Is this MM2 or did someone steal my junk binder full of cards that I can't even give away and slip them into this set?
This set is trashtastic compared to the first Modern Masters.

Okay, I was one of the sets biggest defenders, but man, that spoiler is bad. It looks like they really toned down the power level for limited too. Not particularly excited about this one.
Wow that's shocking! I dug up 7 serum visions in my friend's bulk collection, 4 went into my delver deck, and I was holding onto 3. It's a good thing I didn't sell them! Also was holding onto an inquisition, as I sort of suspected it would miss the cut -- it was JUST in the modern event deck and I heard rumors about it not being in. Now no goblin guide or ensnaring bridge...THATS sad. Overall, I feel like this MM did a lot more then the first in the way of mythics, about the same for rares, an worse for commons and uncommons. But hey, some cards that REALLY needed reprinting got reprinted so I'm okay. I feel like wizards knows that we want certain cards (I.e. Serum visions) so it's quite shocking that they aren't in. All I can say is maybe they're getting the Mutavault/Thoughtseize treatment, being in a standard set. I guess scry could be returning soon, since we are returning to zendikar we may find more goblin guides, and ensnaring bridge would be a safe reprint anywhere really I feel like. But before we complain too much, just remember we got Hiarch (as a rare!), Wilt-Leaf Liege, Remand, Goyf/Bob/Clique/CC, and some other valuable stuff. And every mythic besides Comet Storm is amazing.

Pillory of the Sleepless got new art.
What a flop. Cancelling preorder now.
Thanks to DNC from Heroes of the Plane Studios for the sig
Check my Pauper Cube!
Having said that, i am very dissapointed about the absence of my beloved hasty goblin... They are really trolling us...
There is still the hope of the new Zendigar block i guess...

Still, drafting it with my buddies might be fun and I might crack a value mythic or decent rare, or two.

But uh...yay for Smash to Smithereens reprint?
Thank god Novejin Sages was downgraded. And also thank god the Zen fetches weren't in this set.

Pucatrade with me!

Also hilarious -- it's pretty much impossible to play Daybreak Coronet in the limited format.
Yep, going to draft this the one, maybe two times, and then just buy singles.
