>NOOOOOOO THEY REPRINTED A NON RL CARD WORTH COMEDIC AMOUNTS OF MONEY AND IT TANKED IN VALUE WHO COULD’VE SEEN THIS COMING
literally everyone you moron
videogames in general since colectionism died whit steam
only bing bing wa-hoo still do fisical realeases
you couldn't be more wrong holy shit
collector items are a scam rich people use to trick whales and other dummies
Hasbro will go to any lengths for the short term profit. Any lengths.
I cannot wait for the value of these cardboard garbage to drop and all those homosexuals hoarding hundreds upon hundreds of old booster boxes to lose all of their money. I wouldn't pay a cent for this crap.
doesn't everyone use proxies now anyway
No, lots of people are still up their butt about it even in casual games. Even now when you can use online vendors to print proxies onto real cards.
most Legacy players use straight up counterfeit cards because MTG refuse to reprint all the good old shit. MTG had to recently change the way card boarders look just to help prevent people making legit looking fakes.
>literally worse Vampiric Tutor
Good. shit should drop even lower.
Wait they reprinted imperial seal?
Yes.
Nice. Are there any other big cards they reprinted too?

>tfw I have a holographic monastery mentor
When can I sell it for $10k?
>not on the RL
What’s the RL?
Reserved list. Every card that's on it will not ever see a reprint. This includes things like Gaea's Cradle and the OG dual lands. Things on it cost hundreds if not thousands of dollars. This if you're going to "invest" or get into the "tcg market", the only safe """investment""" is in RL cards that will not ever see a reprint.
>Every card that's on it will not ever see a reprint
yet. Eventually printing moronic cards that have to be banned in standard will stop pulling in the money and Hasbro will cast their eye elsewhere.
Dang theres some good stuff in there
>bought a NM playset of these for 60 each
>320 now
>on the RL
>no intention to sell because legacy leylines is fun
feelsgoodman
If you "invest" in magic and aren't stockpiling Power Nine you are a huge fricking moron.
The reserved list was a mistake and WotC need to abolish it.
If you invest in trading cards, you deserve everything bad that happens to you
People still play tragic the cuckening?
EDH is all that's left, which is what WotC has been wanting for a long time.
Reprint every single card so the price drops into oblivion. Frick investors and collectors, i want to play legacy without remortgaging my house.
>constantly explain how booster packs aren't gambling because cards have no value
>have a list of cards you will never reprint because it would hurt their value
I don't get it
They justify the RL by saying it would hurt consumer confidence and thus hinder their sales, nothing about value. They get real careful about what words they use where.
I am waiting for the day someone finally scrutinizes their actions and statements.
Having people in your company tell their friends to buy particular cards because you're announcing a new format definitely suggests they think cards have value.
It's insanely corrupt over there.
So what's stopping the original print of the cards to have the value they did?
These giga-rare cards are never gonna see the playmat anyway so the perceived value should be tied to the age as well, shouldn't it?
It's a bad card and the only reason it was expensive in the first place was extreme scarcity
>unconditional tutor for 1 mana
>bad
Anon please, it's not as good as vampiric tutor but it's still very powerful.
It's dog water
t. nogaemz
Vampiric tutor does the same thing but at Instant speed and is more accessible.
You can run both. Just because seal isn't as good as vampiric doesn't make it garbage.
Yea, a lot of people have this attitude like if a card isn't the best possible for it's a effect it's trash.
It's part of the reason there are some incredibly powerful common cards that people just gloss over and ignore because they see a common symbol and ignore it.
it only tutors the thing to the top of your deck, and as the old saying goes "a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush"
the tempo loss of not immediately drawing the card you're tutoring only looks small.
In EDH, which is why everyone wants this, that's probably one of the best thing you can do on your first turn.
of course a card that costs the tempo of either surviving to your next draw step or throwing some card draw on the table sees play in a format so glacial they had to ban Sylvan Primordial for the crime of actually being a wincon
It's one of the best cards in EDH. Any cheap tutor is a staple if your deck has the colors to play it.
It's trash in any format
Three Kingdoms version is still worth money and. Even Three Kingdoms basics go up to 30$, behind only alpha and beta as far as non-promo non-foil lands go (and that arabian nights mountain debacle).
Nothing, they retain value. Three Kingdoms cards are valued as collectibles due to the fact that most of the set was only printed there and is genuinely unreprinteble. Not because of the reserve list or muh investor feelings, because it straight up 99% consists shit Wizard just doesn't do anymore. Three Kingdoms flavor in card names, the whole Portal sets concept, fricking Horsemanship as a set mechanic, functional reprints of already existing cards under Three Kingdoms referencing names. Imperial tutor is one of the very few cards that actually made sense to reprint with a modernized flavor. But how the frick would you reprint Lu Bu. This means all of these cards will forever retain value as collector pieces, and from this follows booster prices retaining value.
the original old prints are still worth thousands you fricking mouth breather.
>Yugioh reprints card to make it more accessible
>old versions still hold same value
>everyone happy
>MTG reprints card to make it more accessible
>old versions still hold same value
>NOOOOO HOW COULD WIZARDS BETRAY ME LIKE DIS? I HAD SO MANY OF STASHED AWAY AND NOW THEY ARE ONLY WORTH $2,000 EACH INSTEAD OF $2,000 EACH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA NEW PLAYERS SHOULDN'T BE ALLOWED TO JOIN OUR GAME IT NEEDS TO DIE OUT SLOWLY
>old versions still hold same value
The only ones that keep their value are the whale tier rarity.
>recently
That border change happened 8 years ago.
Shivan Dragon was reprinted to the point where it was free, and the old versions of that card go for insane amounts of money
Pic related is worth 70k
Good job posting an example of the whale tier one, exactly what I was talking about. Printings from Revised, an almost 30 year old set, are worth about tree fitty.
This. Cards like Birds of Paradise have about 20 reprints but the Alpha and Beta versions still fetch for 5k plus. Hoardlets need to learn that the RL means nothing. Imagine being able to play older formats like Vintage or Legacy or just have access to GOOD FRICKING CARDS.
You can't even play Modern at this point.
They managed to make 40K look like a cheap hobby.
>Imagine being able to play older formats like Vintage or Legacy or just have access to GOOD FRICKING CARDS.
The fact that lands, the core thing you need to play any deck, are still the most expensive part of every format is lunacy. This is why new MTG product rots on shelves while pokemon and yugioh are instantly sold out.
The most expensive part of modern is the mythics and rares from MH sets that you're forced to play in order to compete
I just proxy all that shit, it is not i will go to a tournament ever, i just play with irl friends
Only first print highest rarity keep their value.
>reprint old card with new art but same effect
>old card with old art retains value because coomlectors only care about form, not function
Why not this?
the old one DOES still hold it's value. mtgtrannies are just too stupid to understand this.
If I'm not mistaken the reserved list also includes functional reprints.
Functional reprints are a nono too.
Hey sweet, I was hoping for a Magic thread. Are you guys having fun with 2x2? Bought a draft box to play with my brother and we had a blast. Also snagged a textured Lilly for the collection because $225 seems stupid cheap when the Amano Lilly goes for over $3k nowadays.
