Eldritch Moon and Eternal Master Spoiler Question
Spoilers, Rumors, and Speculation forum

Hey guys, do you know exactly when we will see some spoilers for Eldritch Moon and Eternal Masters?
I'm looking each day hoping for them to release a card or two, but alas, to no avail.
DevoidMage is correct.
EMA spoilers start on the 23rd, and Eldritch Moon spoilers won't start until closer to the release date.

Nice! Can't wait to see all the reprints I'll never see because I'm too damn poor to go wasting money on 10 dollar packs.
May 18, 2016 2:20 p.m.
Pardon my ignorance,
But is this like something we buy in booster packs or a box or what?

Packs and box, except the packs are 10 bucks a pop. and boxes are priced accordingly.

but the value is also scaled up tremendously. at least in terms of rares and mythics. commons are still most likely worth less than the cardboard theyre printed on. some uncommons may be worth something.

Eternal Masters in a nutshell:
Come and buy all of your Eternal Staples and needs. Packs are only 10 bucks!*
*Staples only at mythic and sometimes rare level.

Suprisingly, the guy with piston in his name hits the nail on head

It's extremely likely that several commons and uncommons will be pretty big ticket items comparatively. I expect things like Lightning Bolt / Lava Spike / Rift Bolt, Ponder, Gitaxian Probe, Maybe Delver of Secrets Flip, Daze, potentially Cabal Therapy and Hymn to Tourach, Swords to Plowshares, there's a ton of room for sweet reprints that really need it in the common uncommon slots. Also, $10 for your shot at a Tarmogoyf, Wasteland, Karakas, Rishadan Port, seems like good value to me. Of course, those are all just assumptions, but still, the value is there.
May 18, 2016 3:49 p.m.
We can only hope you are correct, DevoidMage.
Considering, how awful MM2 was i am assuming something along the same lines.
Hope i am wrong, honestly.
May 18, 2016 3:57 p.m.
DevoidMage If a booster pack is $10, then how much will the box be?
Also, wouldn't the reprinted cards lose some of their initial value since they are being printed again?
May 18, 2016 4:01 p.m.
I mean you have to remember that the universal rule of buying packs is: don't, they're not worth it.

Maybe they'll print some cards they'll ban a couple months later! That's always awesome.

Reprints will loss value in the short term, but in the long term they will return to, roughly, their previous value (sometimes more). This all depends on how much said reprint is played as well

Thank you for your input. Do you know how much a box might be by any chance?
May 18, 2016 9:42 p.m.
MM2 boxes were MSRP around $240. Assuming the number of packs is the same in EMA I would guess the prices are similar. I wouldn't be surprised if they were significantly more expensive though.
May 18, 2016 11:06 p.m.
Baltec is right. $240 seems to be a good starting point.
Could be more expensive than that depending on the print run and content of the set. The remember mm1 being price gouged a fair amount.
May 19, 2016 10:52 a.m.
Thats a pretty penny. I'm debating between getting a box or just buying Moat for my Blue/White Grand Arbiter Augistine the 4th EDH control deck
May 19, 2016 1:11 p.m.
I say get the moat. Boxes are not guaranteed to have anything good in them.
Oooorrrr, buy a box and get Teferi's Moat as a ghetto (strictly worse of course) alternative.
May 19, 2016 1:45 p.m.
I'm buying a box to bolster my collection.
Seeing that I started playing during JOU I have next to no cards.

5/23/16 Spoilers are Chrome Mox and Daze
Love that they gave Chrome Mox that mox art
May 23, 2016 9:38 a.m.
Why is a box of eternal masters over $300? I suppose an LGS wouldn't sell a box for cheaper right?
May 23, 2016 5:51 p.m.
People really want the boxes, which drives the price up.
It's just simple economics.

Eternal masters start next monday if i'm not mistaken. Eldritch is a couple weeks after that.
