It's crazy how much EMN prices have tanked already. I tested the box mapping technique last night and it worked 100%. All of my mythics came from the same pack art.

Sad to see Damnation wasn't in this FTV. I'd love to see that and Goblin Guide reprinted sometime.

The new from the vault is kinda disappointing imo, but I wouldn't mind getting one of those mind's desire.

EMN is a summer set. It's destined to tank. That's just what they do, especially when everyone already blew their wad on Eternal Masters.

So apparently I know the guy who was buying all the moats and cradles and other high end magic cards.

Known him for years but lost touch when I quit magic. Randomly saw him name dropped in a random article.

I still have a box of Jyhad sitting in my attic. The early shit before they realized maybe that wasn't the most appropriate name.

Wanna mail me that bro? Still have a small group here that plays once a month or so for shits and giggles :D

Sure. it's been opened, but I can box it up and send it your way. No idea what's actually there.

Speaking of those old cards, if anyone has a bulk amount of shit they don't use or care about
anymore and want to get rid of em, send me a PM of a general idea of what you've got and let's see if we can work something out. I have a bunch of comics, toys, cards etc or even some cash. Trying to build up a heftier collection - don't care particularly which block they are coming from as long as they aren't proxies.

To what end, if you don't mind me asking? If it's hundreds or thousands of shit cards that aren't worth more than a nickle, why hoard them?

Nah it's a fair question but the simple answer is part nostalgia and also I have lost all of my old collection so I don't even have regular old staple commons to play freeform kitchen table with my buddies who have their old shit and I would love to get back into that.

Good laugh today from the Pro Tour. Wizards is apparently going to be manually fixing last round pairings instead of letting pairings be made naturally, to make sure they've got suspenseful matches with storylines for coverage.

"Pro"motional Tour indeed.

What a weird experiment. I thought the coming changes to top 8 would already make the final rounds of an event better just by reducing draws. Why go and try to 'force' pairings?

Picked this up a few weeks ago. It's in my 93/94 cube now.

I too would be proud of a fresh Obsianus Golem. 6 toughness is almost Inferno-proof!

Kuro's comment is so retro, I swear I heard "You Oughta Know" playing in the background.

Found an Invasion expansion customer survey sheet in my basement. Tempted to fill it out and send it in to Wizards. I have to let them know that Fires of Yavimaya is OP before it's too late!
