When I'm thinking about Planeswalkers, Sarkhan Vol and Nissa Revane are usually last to come to mind, or at least among the green 'walkers. So basically I'm forgetting two of the three of green 'walkers.
I didn't play against many decks that used JTMS and/or Stoneforge, but now that their values will drop, I might be able to actually pick them up. Though I care more about Stoneforge than JTMS. My Kemba EDH deck has been wanting a Stoneforge for a while, but I've been slightly reluctant to get one because of its value.
I can understand the appeal. They're harder to find than cards you'd normally find in whatever country you live in. That said, I try to avoid cards that aren't in English. I have an Italian Zirilan of the Claw that I wish was in English, mostly because the other 99 cards in my Bladewing deck are all in English. That, and sometimes small disputes over what the exact wording of a card come up if no one knows the exact wording on a foreign card. Fortunately, most of us have some handheld device that has access to the internet, so this isn't a problem, but still, it'd be a lot easier to have a card that's in a language that everyone knows.
My LGS just raised the preorder price of Heavenly Inferno and Devour for Power to $40. The other two are still $30.
I was just thinking to myself, "oh man, hopefully my LGS doesn't jack the price up on these." They're usually pretty good about keeping the price at the MSRP. The second they do raise the price to $40+, yeah no, I'm going to Target.
Nice. If I hadn't just built my Bladewing deck, I'd probably consider building a deck around Kaalia. Hell, considering the large-ish amount of RW stuff I've had sitting around since I took apart my Agrus Kos deck, I could still make a somewhat okay Kaalia deck. Maybe. Probably not anytime soon.
Awesome. I was planning on getting either Mirror Mastery or Political Puppets anyway, but now I'm leaning towards Mirror Mastery because of this guy. Political Puppets has its work cut out for it now.
Player 2 Rafiq of the Many - Your standard Rafiq aggro deck. Arcanis the Omnipotent - Mostly a bunch of counterspells. It works fairly well in the occasional derp 2-3HG, 2 vs. 2 vs. 2, Planechase, and/or Archenemy game.
Player 3 Rhys the Redeemed - Tokens. Despite being made and piloted by a player that started about 2 or 3 months ago, it's probably one of the better decks in the entire group. Merieke Ri Berit - Control.
Player 6 (Also doesn't play with us much) Kresh the Bloodbraided - Not sure. From what I remember, the times he played it, it didn't do much. Sen Triplets - Control. Razia, Boros Archangel - Aggro. I think. I think I've only played against it once.
At school:
Player 1 Kemba, Kha Regent - Voltron and tokens. Glissa, the Traitor - Dredge and artifact recursion. Not the best deck, but it's very interesting and fun to play against.
Player 2 Rafiq of the Many - Yep, standard Rafiq aggro deck. Malfegor - Not sure. She built it right before I left for summer vacation. From what I remember, creatures were dying and being sacrificed everywhere all the time.
I was about to say that.
Anyway, bring on Jace 1.0 or a new Jace all together. Either is fine with me.
Agreed. I'm very interested.

Player 1
Oros, the Avenger - Lots of wraths and stuff. There's also some LD.
Hazezon Tamar - Tokens.
Sygg, River Cutthroat - Not sure. It doesn't seem like he plays it too often.
Chromium/Dakkon Blackblade - Meant to be more casual. From what I can tell, WUB good stuff that isn't too dickish.
Player 2
