Unless you had a truly mythical store that didn't bother to update prices on anything, the rares from your old deck that didn't exist any more in the new meta didn't stay that high.

If it was still in a meta deck and thus was still worth something ... well that's exactly the situation you're presenting where you can keep playing with them on Arena too.
"Not high" is higher than zero.

Or they ended up in Extended. Later Modern. Or legacy or EDH.

You can also have more than one rotation a year without shortening the length of legality or shrinking the standard card pool. I think as usual they drew the wrong lesson from the feedback.

If the key cards in your deck rotate such that the rest aren't playable / aren't playable together, all of it may as well have rotated even if a majority of them are still legal.

It didn't.

(You might be thinking of set boosters being delayed in North America - that isn't affecting the release dates at all, though you'll only be able to get draft boosters at release in NA).

apparently he was getting so many replies about why... it's because i guess the crokeyz guy made a mtg pro tier list video and i guess he rated him low or something i'm not sitting through the video to watch where he is since i don't know either of them

https://twitter.com/sickofit/status/1450132538417049600

like it would be kinda funny if it wasn't in a post announcing your kid, and like anyone else had a clue you were mad about the tier-list video. instead you just give some random callout to a DUDE who made a video for views.

imagine being that mad at someone, just seething about being rated like a C... not telling anyone and then when you had a baby thought, "YES FINALLY I CAN GET IN MY DISS FOR THAT TIER LIST VIDEO"

Compromise: Allow time walk effects but every time you play one you have to play the entire time warp song from Rocky horror and do all the dance moves perfectly or else it gets countered and exiled.

only allow extra turns that happen in reverse order, so you don't actually get the extra untap until it's the "end" of your extra turn

"after this turn, there is an extra end step, then an extra main phase, then an extra combat phase, then an extra main phase, then an untap phase"

For anyone interested, the Sperling part starts at about 25:10. All he says is “I played him once and he beat me so I’m pissed. He’s kind of a prick isn’t he, well like in a good way, I’m a prick too. I’m artificially going to put him as even with me so the ‘better than me’ tier doesn’t get too big”

You’ve got to be the worlds biggest wiener to be mad about that at all much less stewing on it 9 months later.

Sperling looking at his son playing with a mobile in his crib: You love playing with that. You love playing with all your stuffed animals. You love your Mommy, your Daddy. You love your pajamas. You love everything, don't ya? Yea. But you know what, buddy? As you get older, some of the things you love might not seem so special anymore. Like your Jack-in-a-Box. Maybe you'll realize it's just a piece of tin and a stuffed animal. And then you forget the few things you really love. And by the time you get to my age, maybe it's only one or two things. With me, I think it's one.

CUT TO: Sperling logging on to Twitter to call Crokeyz washed.
