MTG Salvation

Slinger, there is a HUGE difference between cancelled forever and temporarily suspended. My advice, don't be so hyperbolic and/or don't buy into the hyperbole so readily.

That Spell Pierce makes Roc of Kher Ridges look like the Mona Lisa.

You would have to pay me good money to play those in paper. ARDHAY ASSPAY (That's piglatin folks, not a curse word.)

Dorksteel Atrocious
Dorkbound Ravagemyeyes
Dorkimus Prime

The last two should come with black stickers you can place over the "artwork". DIAMOND HARD PASS PASS PASS.

HARDEST OF HARD PASSES. Pass me some eye bleach.

Again, HARD PASS

Why??? Who is asking for this???

HARD PASS

None of those are real surprises and could easily be a fan's guess.

The thing is the one email named the set, named the Summer time frame and named the double rares and double foils as well. That is WAY more than a fans wishlist, that is insider knowledge. Of course it could have been faked. We will see.

Also two of the cards on that list are corrrect

doubling season and mana crypt

Yes forgot that as well, thank you.

Probably can assume some more if this is the trend

Noble Hierarch
Cavern
Lily
Goyf
Vamp Tutor
Ensnaring Bridge
Aether Vial
Mana Drain
etc.....etc.....etc.....

Who knows?

Quite a few people out there for quite some time that are not employees of WotC as evidenced by the emails shared in that video. (if legit) Your guesses are a possibility. The earlier ones listed are practically a given.

Yes that is why I mentioned it. That and the 27 years and counting it is taking to reprint a sorely needed card in Pauper.

Its funny how they keep reprinting the expensive cards in expensive product and repeat year after year.


Would be a lot more interesting if every reprint set would have reprints we did not have before.

Those Urza Land reprints are *massively* overdue.

Agreed. I have a feeling we are going to see Oubliette as well. About time right? 27 years in the making. What they choose to reprint will never be enough in my estimation.

So that was a great set with a poor distribution.
But we are getting off tracks.

Indeed we are. Lets get back on.

but the set itself at the price it was intended to be sold (let's call it "theoretical msrp") was great.

I have to disagree. Intended to be sold and price point it actually sold at were far different in my area. It may have been "great" for you. But it absolutely sucked for me. It should have been offered by big box stores at around a $6.99 "MSRP" and it would have been OK. After tax I am looking at around 10 bucks a pack at my LGS with a possible return of a lot of crap 25 cent rares. I won't do it. The reprints for some of these cards will not drop significantly enough with this type of distribution to benefit me as well. I'm glad it worked out for you, for me not even close.

Because that's physical impossible everyone who plays eternal formats gets singles

.....From someone else who has bought sealed product and paid Distributors that have paid WotC/Hasbro. You can't escape it unless you don't buy. Buying Secondary still supports WotC/Hasbro plain and simple albeit through levels/layers. Its like people who buy drugs from a local dealer and think they aren't supporting the huge illegal drug cartels and illegal drug makers. They are. Same applies here.

As I've said, I'm guilty of it. But I try to buy what I think I want/need to play, knowing I still support WotC with my money.

If people played Unglued draft, people will played anything draft.

I imagine drafters sitting down at the breakfast table drafting Lucky Charms cereal, or opening a bag of Potato Chips and drafting single chips with their friends. Just a weird mental image I get. Nothing against drafters here.

Am I the only one who can not refrain from comparing new products to Mystery Boosters? This was a reprint set done right, with apparently a great limited environment, reasonable booster price, etc...

Since this set wasn't released at box stores. My LGS hoarded them, asked for 8 to 9 dollars a pack, even for the free boxes they got. Reprints were good but they did not get into the hands of people like you and me, so that is a total fail in my opinion in that aspect.
