I can only imagine they did this because of that one video and it makes me happy to see that WotC actually has a sense of humor.

Black summer was the best summer.
Despite moving snaps rarity, so far this set looks loving amazing and is going in the right direction. If they print the hell out of this, it will make the modern format a lot more healthy.

So far the set looks like draft is taking a backseat to card value and that is okay, because who doesn't like to draft powerful cards at every rarity?

They originally defended Goyf and Bob at mythic due to them being rares from sets before mythics, right? As in, they were about as rare as mythics before they existed. Snapcaster is going to be heavily played in every eternal format forever it wouldn't hurt to have a few more of them around.

Well this set is quickly becoming even more jammed with value than the first one. If the commons and uncommons becomes a little more stacked and the rest of the rares and mythic are playable the MSRP is almost justified. This is quickly making mm2015 look like a joke in comparison.

Yes, 10$ packs suck amd 30$ drafts are laughable. If the drafts feel more like cube in power level though? Legit excited to draft right now.

Fire-Field Ogre, 4/2 first strike for 1UBR with unearth for UBR. Easily the worst in the cycle. Sedraxis Specter is a huge improvement.

It's funny, Fire-field Ogre was actually a massive pain in the rear end to deal with in limited (as you can see it beats the other 4 of the cycle and most other creatures in the set in combat,) but wasn't very interesting and was insanely unplayable in Constructed. Sedraxis Specter is a super cool and fun card, I can't wait to draft like three of them.

Also LOL at Bonfire being in the set, between that and Deadeye Navigator the set theme seems to be "cards that are awful to play against."

I mean yeah, and then boxes will crest $300+ as people horde them and getting cards will becoming harder thus driving up the prices negating the entire reason for re-printing the set in the first place.

It appears that these boxes are being heavily printed and aren't limited to WPN stores. They will show up at walmart, ETC. Hoarding is not a concern like it was with the first one.
