Easy picking then lol

This is what i was hoping to see out of the Event decks when they announce them. Not one but two of the arguably 2nd best card in standard sign me up! Shame the green deck wasn't as impressive its already down to $14.99 preorder and White one is up to $29.99 (RRP is $24.99)

In other soon to be price droping news

From the end of the new trailer for Duel of the Planeswalkers 2012 it plugs M12 and shows this. So Gideon is a reprint and not going to be new so I would be expecting his price to drop in the future as well.

**Weltall** · 2011-05-19 20:46

What decks are you talking about?

**Qalbert** · 2011-05-19 20:49

is that Jace in the back/safe to assume he is a reprint as well? friend just bought one and he will be pissed if so.
edit: Using my keen detective skills, Jace, Sorin, Chandra, Garruk, and Gideon?

**Weltall** · 2011-05-19 20:57

Its probably Jace Beleren.

**Weltall** · 2011-05-19 21:04

Since I got my cards stolen I'm buying more...anyone with anything for sale?

Sorin and Gideon are reprints odds are Jace/Chandra/Garruk are reprints as well. Chandra's corner looks like she will be using new art if it is a reprint so perhaps new art on Jace and Garruk as well can pull up the cards and compare them.

Also to Weltall I'll have to look through what I have lying around but perhaps can pull together some cards to sell to you cheap to start rebuilding your collection.

**Qalbert** · 2011-05-19 22:31

the diagonal line going into the corner on Jace didn't seem to quite match either Beleren or JTMS, but I can't be positive.

**Weltall** · 2011-05-19 23:20

I'm really hoping all the planeswalkers are new besides Gideon (who is new to a core set). I don't understand why they wouldn't want new ones. It changes up standard a bunch and would sell MUCH more product.

**Myrrh_Quetz** · 2011-05-19 23:26

I'm pretty sure it's Beleran and not TMS.

Man, at magic League tonight I laughed so hard at this guy who bought 4 Mystics the other week for like 25 or 30 each.

I should post my new Infect and Mill deck and see your guys opinions on them.

**Weltall** · 2011-05-19 23:29

I was hoping Mystic would get banned to make things interesting, but then every deck would be around Splinter Twin...and that is boring as hell.

**Nama** · 2011-05-20 00:29

Jace/Garruk/Chandra have been printed least 3 sets plus various duel decks and promos I don't think they need yet another reprint. Chandra is barely played, Garruk still sees some play and Jace is mostly played to kill big Jace. I want to see a good Chandra and I think she would be awesome for 3 CMC since mono red doesn't have any good 3 drops. Garruk is good just underplayed idk what they could do to him but hes connected to Liliana and Innistrad so if he isn't new here maybe he will be there.

**Qalbert** · 2011-05-20 07:31

what sort of info is there on Innistrad? I'm thinking being the start of a new block I might grab a box, but I don't know anything about it, not sure if they just haven't said much yet or what.

**Nama** · 2011-05-20 07:42

Only real info on Innistrad so far is that it takes place on a new plane and Liliana and Garruk are involved with the storyline.

**Tomiko** · 2011-05-20 10:26

Probably won't hear more until August when FtV: Legends comes out since it'll have a preview card.

Comic a friend linked on Facebook:

Spoiler: show

The 3rd panel is my favourite.

**Weltall** · 2011-05-20 11:01

I bought 4 in Japanese the day they came out, haha. Got them for $5 a piece on JP, already get offers for $15-20 for 1.

Going to be one of the best 2 drop creatures of all-time.

**Tomiko** · 2011-05-20 11:08

Is there a certain place you order Japanese singles from? The only places I really know about are Star City and Channel Fireball. Just ordered a 2nd JP NPH box today which should finish my uncommon playsets and hopefully the remaining cards I need for EDH.

On a side note, Karn is tanking faster than I expected. Already down to $20 on CFB. I don't think it'll drop too much further though due to EDH.

**Weltall** · 2011-05-20 11:11

Karn is shit, lol. I get the singles from friends in Tokyo (from FFXI) and Ebay.

Where do you order your boxes from?

I never order cards from SCG or CF, especially foreign ones. They mark them up, while foreign dealers will always mark them below English price. MTGMINTCARD is the best magic dealer there is for English or Chinese.

**Tomiko** · 2011-05-20 11:22

My first one I got on eBay, the one I ordered today was from Collector's Cache. $130 after shipping which is still expensive, but I haven't seen anywhere cheaper.

CF has got better on their foreign prices, I've picked up a few foreign cards for slightly more/less or the same as the english versions. MTGMintCard has good prices but I don't care much for Traditional Chinese. Simplified Chinese is nice looking though.

**Weltall** · 2011-05-20 11:25

Hey man, anything but English...haha
