Because of the reserve list we will NEVER see a paper legacy or vintage masters. EDH isn't a format wizards runs tournaments with, and standard is, well, standard. Modern is the ONLY set that can have a masters run. You do what you can do with what you have.
May 7, 2015 6:11 p.m.
Nah, that doesn't count, that's MTGO only. I'm talking LEGIT. PAPERBACK. ALL OF THE REPRINTS.
May 7, 2015 6:12 p.m.
But you know why that can't work, right Runlue? Everyone else has already said why it can't happen.
May 7, 2015 6:13 p.m.
NO, IT CAN HAPPEN.
DON'T CRUSH MY DREAMS.
This is all because I want a Black Lotus because I'm a noob. Lol
May 7, 2015 6:13 p.m.
I want a Black Lotus so I can eat it for ALL the youtube rage.
May 7, 2015 6:15 p.m.
Wait, eat it?
I wouldn't eat it.
I would probably slowly drive over it with a truck, and then take a lighter, and with a devilishly evil grin, I will slowly bring the lighter to the corner of the card, and watch it burn, while laughing evilly and eating popcorn.

kameenook If I ever have a spare 5k kicking around I'll be sure to do that. It sounds hilarious.
May 7, 2015 6:18 p.m.
Serendipitous_Hummingbird I imagine that with the way I see my life pans out, I will end up with more than 5k sitting around (not a multi-millionaire or anything like that). I would also like to set up another card store in my area, or perhaps just revamp one near me.

Azusa, Lost but Seeking reprint would be good with them bounce lands..
May 7, 2015 7:03 p.m.
ShamaLamaDingDong I don't think I understand what your comment means.
May 7, 2015 7:03 p.m.
IndepenentMeta - so you can play them all and not tap a single one of them (because they enter tapped) and get absolutely nowhere? I do not think that you have thought that through..... Though with basics you can do some work.
May 7, 2015 7:05 p.m.
Yeh but Azusa on her own does not synergise with bounce lands UNLESS you can have them enter untapped.

kameenook: The restricted list is a list of cards that Wizards has promised collectors not to reprint so that those cards hold their value. Black Lotus is on the restricted list, so there can't be a reprint unless Wizards decides to break there promise and print it anyway. So far, they've held to it.

Helps settle them in for the following turns. As far as syngerizes go I'm using Treasure Hunt + Azusa, Lost but Seeking can put plenty of lands on the field. I was thinking bout using 2x Death Pact so I can draw for all the lands I'm putting down. Don't worry man I thought this one out.

It's not true that boosters in Europe are 20$
I am located in Germany and I can order Boosters for ~9 at this moment in time, which is about 10$.
May 7, 2015 7:49 p.m.
Booster boxes in UK preordering at 200GBP ($308). That is $13 per pack. Note that this is a reduced rate that I am getting for knowing a shop owner personally.
From magiccardmarket at 175GBP ($270). That is $11 per pack.
Actual mainstream shops in the UK are selling at 250GBP which is $16 per pack.
May 7, 2015 7:55 p.m.
Player3.14 I know what the Restricted list is, but I don't know what Ummmm..... Restricted List? means, it's actually a question, which only adds confusion.

HoLeeCow... I've visited London that one time and thought it was expensive, but it looks like things are more expensive in general in the UK. Dang.

Cheapest In can find here in Sweden is $250 which is insane. Last time you could preorder boxes for $150. Average pricing is around $275.

Isn't the restricted list the list of cards that can only be played as 1-ofs in Vintage, and the reserved list is the cards that can never be reprinted?
May 7, 2015 8:36 p.m.
SimicPower - You are right, but people can get easily confused with two R-lists running around.
May 7, 2015 8:49 p.m.

Why do I never see Vintage tournaments? I'm always seeing Legacy, Modern, or Standard.
May 7, 2015 8:50 p.m.
Magicrafter- B/c Vintage is hard to get into due to the high barrier to entry. There is the Vintage Super League, but it's in the offseason right now.
May 7, 2015 8:52 p.m.
ThisIsBullshit says... #31
Because Vintage is expensive as all heck.
Duals, P9, FoW, JtMS, etc.
May 7, 2015 8:53 p.m.
When is Legacy Masters becoming a thing? And how about Standard Masters? Dammit, we need EDH Masters! TL Masters! Fuckin' Planechase Masters! DOTP Masters! ALL THE MASTERS!

So at the moment we've got 82/249 spoiled. I thought I heard somewhere that the entire set would be revealed by friday. Does that mean that the next 24 hours will be filled with a spoiler every 11 minutes? Because that seems ridiculous, to put it mildly
May 7, 2015 10:16 p.m.
HolyFalcon says... #38
nah, they'll release it all at once in ~11 hours and 40 minutes.
May 7, 2015 10:22 p.m.
Serendipitous_Hummingbird - Nope, it will probably be just one big info dump at 8 am PDT.
May 7, 2015 10:23 p.m.
They all get spoiled at once. 'Tis what always happens. And I mean, we haven't seen ALL the rares, just the exciting ones. Now all that's left are Limited filler cards.
May 7, 2015 10:23 p.m.
BTW J: Congrats on the upgrade! Now you're one of us (that makes you cool, in case you were wondering).

6tennis: EDH Masters would be amazing. Like Commander's Arsenal, but in draftable booster packs! Standard Masters would be pretty funny, because a pack of a standard set basically is Standard Masters.
Now I have a strange desire for "Pack Wars Masters". I have no idea what that would entail.
May 7, 2015 10:58 p.m.
Draftable EDH would be fucking hilarious. Like, each pack holds a general, then...poop, that wouldn't work.
So, what do y'all think the UB archetype will be?

I actually made up rules for EDH draft a while back. It was meant more for cube drafting, though it could work in pack drafting too I guess.
- First you open a special 3-ish card pack of "generals" and pass it around. All cards in the generals pack are multicolor legends.
- Then you proceed to draft regular packs, and you can use one of the generals you pulled in the first round as your commander.
- You can only run cards in your colors.
- You can also use a legendary creature you pull in one of your regular packs as your general.
- You should probably open more than three packs to draft, as EDH is a bigger deck format.
- I'm not sure about deck size. Draft decks are usually 2/3 the size of regular decks, so 65 card EDH decks might work. If that is too much, 40 or 50 cards might work better.
- I am assuming the singleton rule would stay in effect. Sorry to those who pull double Deadeye for their Roon deck.
Obviously still in the works, but I think this would be fun, at least for a cube.
That was a very off topic post. Back on topic, Goblin Guide is the only card from the original "leak" not yet spoiled if I am not mistaken. Are we all certain it will be in the set?
May 7, 2015 11:17 p.m.
SimicPower Oh man, GG better be in here, or I'll be flipping tables... and people... off the Empire State Building... into heavy traffic...
May 7, 2015 11:22 p.m.
It better be. Everything else from the leak was accurate.
May 7, 2015 11:28 p.m.
SimicPower There's a very small chance that Goblin Guide isn't in the set. Thought the chance is teeny, it's there. The card really needs a reprint, but Wizards doesn't know that. Wizards makes Comet Storm a mythic. You don't know what to expect from Wizards. They're a bloody enigma.
And guys... I just realized something.
There's no Damnation.

SimicPower says... #48
Many people are sad that Comet Storm is a mythic, but I think about it like this: If Comet Storm was a rare it would see twice as much print. Now I have a lower chance of opening Comet Storm than Noble Hierarch. Nice. I have actually stopped getting angry about wizards printing underpowered mythics. Why not make them all underpowered, they just see less print, and I get a better chance at pulling my Polluted Deltas and whatnot.
May 8, 2015 12:19 a.m.
Great point. Do you think Damnation is gonna make an appearance?
kameenook says... #1
Emrakul, the Aeons Torn is played enough in modern to warrant its inclusion, the playability in other formats is gravy. Did you know that Lightning Bolt sees play in all formats where it is legal?
