Tezzeret and Ajani 2 are from the planeswalker decks it would seem by their collector number. Ajani 1 looks like it's from the actual set

>>50543442
Yeah
>>
I was gonna flip my shit about seven planeswalkers in one block, but one of those ajani is from the planeswalker deck. still probably going to be six walkers again if there's an in-set tezz to go with that planeswalker deck tezz. also i want that planeswalker deck tezz for an actual deck, which already makes him better than the other planeswalker deck walkers

See pic related.

With the way Standard is going I frankly didn't expect a Tezzeret Agent of Bolas or a Tezzeret the Seeker, but this is just demoralizing. It's not TERRIBLE but it's not a card I'd play in any deck, and it'd be a weak in any "competitive" EDH deck. In an artifact deck I have hugely better cards to play that kill way faster than new Tezzeret. His minus is fine but unremarkable. His plus is okay but there are much better tutor effects in the game for way less mana. His ultimate is cool but the rest of him is just not enough to make me excited.
>>
>>50543836
That is also the shitty intro tezz rather than a main set tezz
>>
>>50543823
Holy shit you are right, like that wasn't implied you retard of course if a card is good enough to tutor for you should be probably running a playset
>>
>>50543852
Backpedal any harder and you'll be in fucking reverse, mate
>>
ITT: People who don't know that this is the Planeswalker deck Tezzeret.

That being said, this is definitely the best of its kind so far. Nissa almost got there and Chandra was a big miss (so is the new Ajani).
>>
>>50543833
I read it as "any order" for some reason. what happens if you +1 him without any artifacts in your deck? does it just become '+1: shuffle your deck' or can you simply not use it?
>>
>>50543985
with no artifacts it becomes "+1: reveal and shuffle your deck" so it's almost actively detrimental.
>>
I know it's an intro deck planeswalker but Tezzeret's 2nd ability is potentially strong in eternal formats. Especially Vintage decks ahoy where you can drain them hard with a bunch of Moxen in play.
>>
>>50544002

Rev up those Cosi's Tricksters.
>>
>>50544028
I have a casual deck that uses mirrorworks to produce a fuckton of mana rocks, and honestly i think i'd rather run new tezz over agent of bolas just because it can dome someone the turn it comes out, and not have to survive at least one turn to pull it off. it's not a competitive deck, but it still speaks to the fact that tezz could be a functional wincon in a real deck. the spell that fetches him is gonna cost five, and probably not be worth it, but I'm worried it'll toe that line and both might actually hit playable in some niche archetype.
>>
>>50544064
except it doesn't actually shuffle your deck, it just functionally shuffles your deck, so no. it's like how any effect that puts the top card of your livrary into your hand doesn't work with anything that cares about drawing.

Pity that Stoneforge hits all the swords already. I can see it in vintage 5color humans to grab spicy hate cards, and it could be a way for some etb deck to eke out card advantage. Modern it feels too slow, I don't think any deck wants effectively two playsets of crucible.

>>50546817

Pushed mythic that can use another mythic to be even better.

People wonder why standard attendance and Magic in-general have stagnated. Pushing mythics so hard is a problem WoTC just wont deal with. Any new player looking to get into deck building with his pool of cards he got drafting is going to find out that 90% of the cards he picked are absolute shit, and if he wants to play competitively (people play for fun but losing 90% of your games IS NOT FUN either), hes going to have to drop 200-600 bucks for a deck. You don't think people don't get turned off? Having the power level of a set distributed across a small pool of cards makes an unfun environment. These last few sets feel like the power has been concentrated among fewer cards, on fewer rarities.

During the RTR - Theros Standard I built a weenie aggro deck, black enchantment aggro, and a control deck, all on a budget. They obviously were not tier 1, but I never felt the decks were so much worse as me having no chance. I remember blowing U/W control decks and B/G decks up somewhat consistently with my R/W weenie deck on T3-4. My black enchantment/devotion/whip aggro deck was FUN, AND I won some games with it.

It feels like lately the top tier decks are just so much better then the next tier. I didn't feel like this was the case in RTR, Theros, Khans, and Scars block to a lesser extent (didn't play during Innistrad). I could brew something up for 50 bucks and have fun with it and do OK. Top tier was still top, but at least I felt I had a chance to upset them with some nut draws and smart play.

TL:DR: I'm a faggot ranting about WoTC and pushed cards/lower power everything else.

Heroic was Tier 1 and it cost like, 40 bucks.

and yea, the big problem is, a new player has no out other than instantly delve into the fucking secondary market.

its not intuitive, to play standard, you must not buy packs, you must buy singles from someone else, and you must know how to do this pretty much from "go".

Abuse of mythic rarity? I don't know what you're talking about.
>>
When Bant "Mythic" the deck was creeping around and Baneslayer Angel cost $50 should have started Wizards on the path to nixing the mythic rarity for both cost and power purposes. Then we had $100 Jaces and Lotus Cobra and Vengevine costing some amount I don't remember but recall not being pleased with.

Instead, their solution was to print shittier mythics. Problem is, shittier mythics did not solve the cost nor power problem.

So here we are. The funny thing is that if they killed mythics today players would have a shit-flinging party about how Wizards is fallible and how they're so fucking smart with the legitimate retards coming out of the woodwork defending the idiotic rarity because they love it when they get a mythic while cracking packs.
>>
>>50549306
This is so blatantly obvious, I don't see how Wizards doesn't see it. You can't make a set with a couple dozen shit cards and then six really really good ones. Come on.
>>
>>50549446
Don't forget $60 Thundermaws and ANOTHER $100 Jace.
>>
>>50549454
the worst part of printing shitty mythics now is they have no value outside of standard.

meaning they will cost alot because of standard, and then rotate.. right into the garbage bin.

very rarely is this not true, only with cards that are exceptionally pushed, such as Grim Flayer.

>legitimate retards coming out of the woodwork defending the idiotic rarity because they love it when they get a mythic while cracking packs.
Not gonna lie, it does feel pretty good. I think they should just move the power around. Give the commons something actually playable now and again. Make mythics really shitty but fun to play, like janky commander cards I guess. Essentially the polar opposite of what they're currently doing.
>>
>>50549496
Liliana sees play in Modern as well but obviously I don't think that it retain anywhere near its price tag once it rotates
>>
>>50549467
the best part at least, is that it is actually working out very poorly for WoTC and only WoTC

the secondary market is still fine, only WoTC is truly suffering (and LGS reliant on FNM to draw people in)

attendence is so bad they are literally throwing anything at the wall till it sticks.

Mythic Rarity needs to go, its a blight and its runing their game, standard costs too much and there isn't any stopping it.

>>50549546
>Essentially the polar opposite of what they're currently doing.
Funnily enough, you basically nailed the original criteria Wizards set for mythic rares. They stuck to it for 2 years, then printed Lotus Cobra.

>attendance is so bad they are literally throwing anything at the wall till it sticks
What pisses me off about Standard Showdown is that it's a program that they're going to fucking dump within a year just like every other get-people-in-the-store program they introduced. All I've ever wanted from Magic is reliability. I want to reliably have drafts fire (not MTGO where opponents afk by double-queuing), I want promotional cards that don't piss me off, I want to see my store not struggle and host Magic at a loss because Wizards forces them to (how fucking terrible is it that Magic is the only loser product).

>>50549546
I don't fault you for enjoying the feeling. But in all seriousness it's probably more efficient doing heroin or cocaine - they're certainly more reliable if you want the euphoria.

>>50549617
It makes no fucking sense that they shit the bed at Zendikar. Zendikar should have been finished by the time they introduced Mythics with M10 and Alara.
>>
>>50549547
The rule for Standard rotation is that if the card is playable in Modern, it will retain its value. In fact, it will rise shortly after rotation. This above all things is true; it's the ONLY fact that I can say with absolute certainty to it's veracity.

New Liliana is never going to drop. It sees play in Jund and so long as Affinity and Infect remain good decks (I see no fucking reason why they won't) it will be useful.

I'm not even going to look up the price, but whatever it's at right now, it's only going to go up.
>>
>>50549895
Liliana will definitely drop, Standard decks require playsets and she only sees play in two modern decks as a 2-of at most so there won't be nearly as much demand.

Damn you WotC
>>
>>50549975
To me, immediate demand has nothing to do with it. Stores know that the likelihood of reprint is really low so even if nobody wants the card NOW, there will always be people entering Modern who will want it in the future.

And for that reason they will never drop the price.

You might look at me and say, "Snapcaster is down to $40 now." Well sure, it's down from like $80. But guess what, when that fucker rotated he cost $30.

The problem is that I know WoTC can print GOOD but reasonable mythics that hearken back to what the first said about them. "Strong flashy, FUN, cards that are archetype defining, but not so strong every deck needs them, or in fact, should play them". An example off the top of my head was Omanth. That green blob thing was my fucking nigga. He enabled whole different deck types and building decisions, and was good. Not broken, not weak, good. Most importantly, he was FUN. He begged you to try to break him, and sometimes you got to do some absolutely degenerate (FUN) stuff with him. Not this above curve, under-costed, always value, always expensive $$ stuff we've been getting lately.

I think they try to print pushed mythics and rares like Grim/Copter to just sell cases to singles sellers and the likes hoping to make more money. I don't think it's working out for them because they are getting desperate with this Standard Showdown shit.
>>
>>50550062
Snap is that low? Wow, might want to pick some up.
>>
>>50549735
Standard showdown is actually a great idea
if stores distributed packs the way they were supposed to

Wizards reccomends that packs be given out randomly to all attendants but the majority of stores are just frontloading it and giving the majority of packs to the winner of the tournament

this sort of defeats the purpose where the showdown packs were meant to try to infuse the market with these high value cards and give them to just random players, some new some old, but all that is happening now is the people who bought into the game are getting the lion's share and will continue to horde and sell off the playable mythics and rares at absurd prices

Konami is shit and yugioh has gone to complete shit over the years but one thing they did that always made me a little bit happy was they attempted to fuck over the secondary market by doing constant reprints of cards that became too expensive from older sets

>>50550189
I don't think Standard Showdown is a bad idea. I just know that it's going to get ditched, which is just going to erode the fucks-given for any new promotional thing Wizards pulls out its ass later. I already give zero fucks but the idea that I can play Standard twice a week ALMOST made me come back to Standard until I came to my sense and recalled all the times Wizards failed to commit to me the times I committed to them.

Wizards doesn't actually recommend that the packs are given out randomly. I don't know where the myth of random distribution came from but from the WPN site:
>We recommend you prioritize recipients in this order: 1) undefeated players, 2) returning players from previous weeks, 3) new players, 4) players who brought a friend.

The reality is probably that there are NO new people or people bringing their friends so stores have just decided to front-load it.

>>
>>50550343
They could've start by giving foil mythics on prerelease like they used to.

>>
>>50550408
Wizards stopped doing that because fucking crybabies complained about stores holding back promotional product so they could sell it on the secondary market.

Which does not represent the majority. We only heard about whiny bitches from shit stores. Most stores behaved well.

I don't even know if that's the reason. Wizards has never fucking given a reason why promos have gone to shit across the board.

I'm willing to subscribe to any stupid conspiracy theory why our promos are garbage. I'm willing to say they had leftover art and that's how they pick the promos.

That was baffling for me too. If they said they want to protect 2ndary market, hey guess what? the amazing ones (wurm and emmy) are still fucking expensive.

Now here's a better suggestion if they don't want one card to flood the market. Make it like today but make it random foil mythics so there won't be people who pulled promo fucking Dubious Challenge or those one rare red 'randomizer' card they put in every set.

Fuck, you reminded me when I just quit going to prereleases for Sealed.

It used to be simple. You got a fucking Emrakul and you played Sealed. Plain boring Sealed. Loved it.

And since then you got a random promo, and like you said, some people got fucking garbage and some people got the fucking tits. And that's all it took to set me off. I was fine that sometimes someone opened the tits in Sealed, I could deal with that. What I could NOT deal with was the fact that some people got that extra rare that just sometimes took it over the top. And with removal becoming more and more dogshit, that extra Serra-Angel-grade Rare was all it took to flip games.

I don't fucking get it at all. You pay an artist to make extra art of a sweet card, package those cards in a pack, and you're good. You don't have to waste your fucking money every 3 months designing special boxes with special dice. When you just do plain Sealed the unused booster boxes can be used for regular sales instead of having prerelease packs that fucking compete with Toolkits and Intro Decks for shelf space.
>>
>>50550727

They're selling cards with a set quantity and amount for a specific price. You're paying $30 for 100 single cards in EDH decks.

Or you know, they could just switch to LCG styled distribution
>>
>>50550776
It doesn't fucking matter if there is a conspiracy of cooperation with the vendors or not.

All that matters is that the price drops to RECORD lows.

And it never fucking actually drops to record lows. There was nothing (useful) printed in Eternal or Modern Masters that actually fucking dropped in price where the card is accessible. The cards inflated to extra-hot-bullshit from regular-bullshit and the reprinting only dropped it down to hot-bullshit.

I know this because I recall with every single one of these cards when they were modestly priced (like Wasteland at $40) I thought, "That's too expensive" then they went through the roof to $80, then Wasteland got reprinted and guess what it's at now, $40.

And what pisses me off the most, is all these goddamn players just singing Wizards' praises for these reprints just not realizing that the price went fucking net-nowhere. That is what hurts the most, that Wizards knows these players are the most dumbest exploitable motherfuckers who will drink whatever piss they deign to drip into their cup.
>>
>>50550873
What if the price was simply pegged by an algorithm to steadily undercut the secondary market?
>>
>>50550595
I'm incredibly stupid. Explain it to me.
>>
>>50550824
They don't even need to do it differently than now. Just reduce the promo print run to mythics only. Yeah sure, there are shitty mythics but they still are mythics. Opening a General Tazri still felt better than opening a fucking Hedron Alignment.

>>
>>50543750
>Ubpraged Ob Nixilis
Explain.
It costs more mana, the +1 can't hit lands, instants, or sorceries, the -2 gives the opponent life and the ultimate requires a other creatures or planeswalkers to be in play to be good.

Ob Nixilis is a control card that draws you more answers/removal or acts as creature removal in a pinch. If left unanswered it also becomes an inevitable threat. Ajani Unyielding is none of those things.

You could make arguments that Ajani is better than Ob Nixilis but I don't see how you're viewing this as an upgrade or powercreep.

>>
>>50550968
>legally

You use that word. Let's go with the US Federal law
http://definitions.uslegal.com/g/gambling/

>A person engages in gambling if he stakes or risks something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance or a future contingent event not under his control or influence, upon an agreement or understanding that he or someone else will receive something of value in the event of a certain outcome . Gambling does not include bona fide business transactions valid under the law of contracts, such as the purchase or sale at a future date of securities or commodities, contracts of indemnity or guaranty and life, health or accident insurance.

Let's go over this slowly because you're a fucking deluded retard.
1. You buy a pack of 15 cards.
2. Your money is already sunk into buying the pack itself, regardless of intent or outcome.
3. Gambling would be "Hey I bet $5 I'm gonna pull something good."
4. You're not betting or raising stakes on a certain outcome. There is no ante when you buy a pack, you just spend $4 on it and you're done.
This is why booster packs aren't considered gambling, because you're not betting money that you're pulling something good. You're merely buying 15 cards that may or may not be good. It's like the lottery, which is legal in most states.

>Gambling is accepting, recording, or registering bets, or carrying on a policy game or any other lottery, or playing any game of chance, for money or other thing of value. Title 18, U.S.C., Sec. 1955, makes it a federal crime or offense for anyone to conduct an 'illegal gambling business.'

Federales would have shut down baseball card companies in the first place, back in the fucking 60s or 70s.
Never use the term "legally" again.

>>50550940

I hate Wizards too but prices don't adhere to this ransom principle you've applied to them, read a book nigger.
>>
>>50551184
And yet you somehow didn't remove any of the three planeswalkers I had in play?
So you didn't have a way to actually put threats on the board or in any way interact with my boardstate, but you still somehow managed to not lose (but also not do literally anything else) long enough to cast Emrakul.

Delirium sure is a strange deck if it literally can't interact with the opponent at all but still somehow survives to turn 10.

Looterscooter is an anomaly and I bet MaRo hatefucks piles of print tests of the thing every night because Chandra wasn't the lottery ticket of the set and people are able to play a powerful card that isn't Mythic.

I've known since Origins, but now is when I'm quitting for good since they've stopped printing good burn for red and interesting spells in general. The only reason I didn't quit ealier is because I had a somewhat enjoyable From Beyond ramp/toolbox deck that searched up whatever titans I needed and shat them on the board but it's simply not viable anymore.

If it makes you feel any better, Baral will likely get a card and you'll have a legendary that's focused on counterspells. He'll probably be an asshole card par excellence or utter garbage.
>>
>>50555226
Improvise's mechanic is worded so fucking strangely.
>>
>>50555364
lol what?

>costs 1 mana more
>no split second

what goes on in your head i wonder
>>
>>50555470

It's Convoke with Artifacts.
>>
>>50555319
Cancel with upside is still Counterspell with downside.
>>
>>50555470

It's the same as the new convoke wording, really. The first line is super-unnecessary, but it's more new player friendly apparently.
>>
>>50555470
They should have recycled the convoke wording but with artifacts.
>>
>>50555470
must be due to interaction with producing mana? stuff like this never came up unless you count activating and tapping for wall of roots for chord
>>
>>50555470
I think it's to clear up confusion that might have existed for shit like Delve or Convoke

Like people not knowing whether they should tap their lands or creatures first or exile their graveyard cards first for delve.

Neither of those is particularly a big deal, but I think it's just so you know right off the bat how to use shit for the ability
>>
>>50555462
Baral 1UU

Flash
When he ETBs counter target spell and draw 3 cards, the put two cards back.

1U; Return~ to your hand

3/1
>>
>>50555319
>what is mono-blue voidslime
no way that shit's anything other than rare bro.
>>
>>50555488
That's exactly what it is. "after you're done activating mana abilities" just seems like an odd addition.

Plus "your artifacts can help cast this spell" sounds juvenile, but I think that was on convoke as well.
>>
>>50555226
I feel if you put Battle at the Bridge's flavor text on Dark Intimations it goes from a smug quip to a guy feeling real fucking lonely as he realizes he just fucked up while working for Bolas

Well, that's an unique card if I've seen one.

Seriously, I need some competitive 2 drop spells to put in my spicay Mardu

I'm tired of all this Infect shit

>legally gambling

When you gamble you have a chance to lose money.

When you buy a pack of Magic cards, Pokemon cards, baseball cards, etc you get what the pack says. With Magic, that is 15 Magic the Gathering trading cards. Barring print error/pack tampering, you will always get 15 cards in a booster pack.
>>
>>50555181

There's no "Adult" creature type printed anywhere, of course they don't
>>
>>50555226

and yet disallow will still be too slow for Tier 1 Modern

It's ok tho
>>
>>50555528
that card is 50 dollars and spawns multiple blue modern archetypes
>>
>>50555676
It'd actually be super fucking refreshing for a legend to absolutely defeat a planeswalker.
I'm not asking for Chandra to die because I know better when dealing with IPs and executives, but Baral unapologetically defeating her like she's just another creep would be great, don't care if Nissa and Lilly save her afterwards.

I see what you mean, but the last time that happened...
>>
>>50555757
Opening a specific Mythic Rare takes aprox. 110 boosters. By making that card the best card in the set and a must-have 4x in one or both of the two tier 1 decks for a standard season, they make sure everyone who wishes to compete needs to have 440 boosters open just for one playset.

They know perfectly well what they're doing and the only reason they don't aknowledge the secondary market is because it may land Magic in registered goods.
>>
>>50543424
>+ is card advantage
>- is spot removal
>Ultimate is irrelevant

It's nice to see that WotC is sticking to the formula nice and hard.
>>
>>50556083
Heliod didn't beat Elspeth in combat, he betrayed her and she didn't fight back because she wanted to die.
>>
>>50556114
this.

though this is because no one has ever beat Elspeth at combat because she's an inhuman, incredibly strong monster.

even the phyrexians thought her freakish.
>>
I didn't want to make a new thread for this, but if a person wanted to import foreign language sealed product, what would be a good site to do that?
>>
>>50556424
Ask your store. Stores buy from both Wizards and distributors. Either one will have access to it. Give your store a lot of notice.
>>
>>50556424
Import, as in alot of products?
>>
>>50555812

>counter anything, 3 mana

Does versatility hurt your autism?
>>
>>50555676
Its designed like the intropack cards.

Gideon could probably penetrate her somewhere
>>
>>50555528
Way to fucking good
>>
>>50557024
Forces of nature.
Back when walkers were ubergods, legends like Tetsuo, Volrath, Gerrard and Sengir would still be challenging opponents they'd rather avoid unless your name was Urza or Taysir. Nowadays only literal gods compare to walkers despite being much weaker because they have the only superpower that matters: plot armor.
>>
>>50556088
Nobody is saying the situation right now is acceptable but its not gambling.
>>
>>50557038
Daxos did already
Tch, Kytheon, upstaged by Therosians as always.
>>
>>50557025
Not like he misread it, he's just flat wrong as they're different effects.
>>
>>50557078

>tetsuo is still the only person to BTFO bolas to such an extreme

Its jarring
>>
>>50556088
That's not what the anons mean.
You can say it's philosophically gambling, you can say it's basically gambling, you can say whatever but legally, it's not gambling.

>Printing a card thats better than a current $10 card

Jesus fuck
>>
>>50557571

What do you think the price will be like for it? Since blue was getting shat on for awhile, this is going to be in high demand dropping the price of voidslime so I can get that on the cheap too
>>
>>50557590
At rare level it might actually not be cheap. You'd have to quickly pick up a playset since this is easily the best Cancel alternative thats been printed in a while.

If Voidslime does not drop expect it to be at $15 each, $20 if its picked up in standard decks and pray that mono-blue decks in modern don't pick it up.
>>
>>50557571
I think for once this is not to blatently sell more packs this is something that was badly needed.
>>
People are actually COMPLAINING about a strictly better Voidslime. What the fuck is going on in this thread?
>>
>>50557609
You have to understand that this set is going to be opened far more than dissension. I genuinely doubt any price is going to go up, but I do anticipate this being a rare you don't mind pulling from a pack.

Think of it this way, do you really see this card going to Scooter prices while still in print?
>>
>>50557658

On a scale from 1 to 10, how busted is this one?

Jund and shardless players must be coming buckets
>>
>>50558762

pretty fucking busted

It doesn't even take down your own grim flayers + free liliana
>>
>>50558762
>, darling,
Of course the magical asexual lesbo had to speak like a nigra.
In my Queen Marchesa (a proper lady) deck, this'll most likely be boardwipe and draw spell or wipe and manarock. Same for Traximundar.
On Standard it'll be wipe and Lilly 90% of the time.
It's shit in every other format.
>>
>>50558762
>Modern

Sure, I can see it. But unlikely.

>Legacy
Thalia and co. says no.
>>
>>50555226

>That wording for improvise

What the fuck is this word vomit?

>>50555226

Oh shit that looks fucking perf-

God. Damn. It.

meh, easier to deal with than cascade you nignog

thalia and wingmare say hi
>>
>>50555226
If I would get a nickle for everytime someone is going to say 'Intimidations' instead of 'Imitations', I might be able to buy a box of EMA.
>>
>>50559939
fair point
>>
>>50559950
you owe me a nickle
>>
>>50559281
I can still see it in shardless. Shardless and Grim Flayer still work, just like deathrite shaman if you don't have anything else. Plus it gets rid of Thalia at the same time.
>>
>>50559950
and yet it is neither of what your wrote
