jassi007 posted:The appeal of a format that is significantly low maintenance with high power level cards really can't be denied.  This is exactly why I got into Modern, except instead of investing in the Goyfs and Lilis I need to make a legitimate Junk list I built Titan Breach from scratch instead because ~variety~. For a format I get to play once a month. I'm dumb.

jassi007 posted:I had that problem, but I really haven't touched anything other than Jund in a year, so I think come Feb for GP Pittsburgh I'm going to seriously slim down my collection. I could do a lot better things with several thousands of dollars than have it tied up in Magic cards. I also have a few friends that kinda like playing Magic, but won't have invested thirty hojillion dollars in it so I like to have a few decks to loan out.

It's great when people at my LGS have decks like this. I used to pew pew Legacy but I really enjoyed it and wished I had burnable income to buy the Legacy Lands deck. I wanna watch that in play again I hope someone runs it at this weekends SCG Open

I could do a lot better things with several thousands of dollars than have it tied up in Magic cards. This is what I'm doing right now. I liquidated Affinity, my Aether Vials from Eldrazi and Taxes, and am getting rid of BGx cards I won't ever play. That only leaves me with: Burn Gruul/Bushwacker Zoo Bant Eldrazi Infect Abzan Company Basically I'm an modern peasant with such a dearth of cards.  C-Euro posted:

Now is not the time to buy expensive modern staples. The new modern masters is soonish with lily and the gang getting reprints. The only card I am worried won't be in the next one is goyf, which would be a shame if it wasn't.

It would be cool if they dialed back the upshift on rarity thing they like to do in these masters sets. Like, if they really were interested in making staples for modern more accessible to grow their playerbase, which is certainly secondary to selling packs but still, then Goyf should be Rare and not Mythic among other cards. I could see Lili being Mythic because, hey, Planeswalkers should be Mythic, but Goyf, Snapcaster?

ShaneB posted:Having to buy a new computer for limited is kinda messed up. Thanks modo. This would literally be the case for me - I don't crash/freeze much during games and losing a few minutes of clock to computer problems is at least manageable, but regularly missing picks thanks to MODO not running well makes drafting completely untenable.

born on a buy you posted:i bet modern masters is dead now that masterpieces exist Yeah I'm pretty sure inserts have always been preferable to boutique "premium" sets. Like there's a niche population that love paying $200+ for 4 packs containing 5 cards each, presale numbers for them have always been much lower than just putting inserts in normal low-mid ranged sets.

I don't see why there wouldn't be Masterpieces in the reprint sets, it seems like if they help with sales of regular sets they'll help with sales of the reprint sets. Of course, that's assuming they actually bother to print enough of MM3 to go around.
