The card to get now is Koth, hands down. Not only he will only increase in value, as he isn't rotating any time soon and isn't having his supply increased by M12.
That said, life loss in white is a dead giveaway for New Phyrexia, in addition to the MANY other hints and clues we have been given. (Note no clues and hints point towards Mirrodin Pure)
This tbh.
If i was a betting man (not saying i'm not) i would go all in on New Phyrexia happening
Stasis? you've got to be kidding. do you realize how bad that deck is? it was just a hate deck used almost exclusively to punish Necro decks. Howling Mine (a key card in Turbo Stasis) is totally one sided against an opponent with a Necropotence out. also worth pointing out that Necro decks could not typically remove a Stasis in play with anything besides Nevinyrral's Disk, which obviously doesn't work at all once the Stasis is down due to coming into play tapped. any deck with Disenchant can beat a Stasis deck though.
in fact i'd say by the very definition of "dominant deck" that this thread is based on Stasis is disqualified because it was a response to an actual dominant deck: Necro. calling stasis dominant is like saying Mono-Green Molder Slug was a dominant deck because it had a good matchup vs. Affinity.
This, to be honest.
Academy and Affinity were, in my opinion, in a whole different level than anything else
Koth is awesome design, ill give him that, but i seriously doubt it will see competitive constructed play. I mean, he obviously require a mono-red deck full of mountains to be effective, and that kind of deck most of the time cant afford to play 4 mana permanents that demands a few turns to set up
that guy actually DOES look quite incredible. With PtO leaving the format, he might be even on par with Baneslayer as a control finisher, probably worse than Grave Titan tho (and BSA still leagues ahead on midrage)
and a little off topic, but i do remember that guy Psibite or something, the one who got the eventide boosters. Although its maybe because of how big that thread got
2) Chandra Nalaar
3) Nissa Revane
4) Sorin Markov
5) Ajani Goldmane
