Looking for a card that can replace Advent of the Wurm .In other words, I need something that can help rebouncing from sweepers. *

*NOT Voice of Resurgence !! Budget cards only.

Boon Satyr ? But why do you need to replace it, it isn't rotating out!

Yes, I know haha. It's pretty expensive at the store near me ($8) and I don't feel like dropping $32 for a playset, as the deck I'm building is strictly budget. My budget build for theros :P. Already playing boon haha.

Waaaaay cheaper on TCG Player: http://store.tcgplayer.com/magic/dragons-maze/advent-of-the-wurm

Or if you have things for trade I'm think the users of this fine site might be able to help.

Yeah, good point alulien. Sadly, most of my cards that were worth anything rotated. I got a playset of Champion of the Parish and Hellrider , but they just aren't worth much anymore.

Then I have to pay for shipping :(.

Find one seller with a playset, buffy, and it'll be $1 or $2 for shipping and you're talking like $15 for the playset vs. $32 at your LGS.

I support my LGS by buying boxes at release and packs for drafts with friends - I buy singles online or trade for them.

Mutavault but thats not in your price range so. So instead how about siding Rootborn Defenses ? that way it prevents a supreme verdict from ruining your day

also Haunted Plate Mail ? It can survive a Supreme Verdict not what I would go with but its cheap and option. Also something out of budget I know but if you ever get one Fleecemane Lion It can survive a supreme verdict and almost everything (if you get its effect off). I don't know what deck this is for but im guessing its either G/W or Naya

Nylea, God of the Hunt survives a verdict, and it should go down sometime soon. Same as Heliod, God of the Sun , who'll make tokens all day long after a verdict.

Most LGS's will update their prices if you show them that their stuff is clearly overpriced.

My LGS has all of its cards prepriced on a sleeve, and sometimes those card values change but the price doesn't get updated. Showing the owner a price from StarCityGames, or the Mid value on TCGPlayer will get him to fix the price so he doesn't rip us off.

Your LGS wants to make money, and they can only do that if they actually make sales.

Heliod, God of the Sun , can help you recover from sweepers, as he'll generate a token army for the same price as Advent of the Wurm (granted, they're not as strong).

Still, Advent of the Wurm is very cheap now. You can easily find a playset for $12, and even if you have to pay for shipping, it beats out on $8 per.
