I hear Island is looking strong. Probably a strong spike on those soon.

I think Swamp is the #1 card to look at. I swear, there's some sort of secret community involved with Swamp s. Everyone at my LGS has started calling saying Swamp like; Swam-p. It's getting to the point where even I say it like that!

I hear that Evolving Wilds is a good spec. Strictly better than specing on just one basic land. Why just one when you can get all five? That's value right there.

Pssh, ThatBlueMage --- Terramorphic Expanse is a thing, you know. It's much better in comparison.

Demonstrate value - Advertise your deck idea a bit. Make people believe it's okay, but not amazing. You don't want to skip to point 4 too fast.
Engage physically - Build the deck and beat everyone with it. = Win
Nurture dependence - Continue doing that until people sideboard specifically against your cards. = Win until...
Neglect emotionally - Drop the deck, it's staples and play something else instead.
Inspire hope - Pick the deck up again, as soon as nobody expects it. = Win
Separate entirely - Sell your unwanted cards before they get worthless; Rotation Week
Rinse and repeat.

Chief Engineer and Life's Legacy are the dollar rates I could see jumping a few doll hairs! But make your own judgement call!

Pft, those cards are terrible and have zero chance of being anything more than bulk. If you want a solid spec, Goat Token is where it's at.

OP makes an honest mistake. Everyone jumps on the troll bandwagon rather than letting this thread die.
