I was super hyped when my dad said he found a sealed, shrink-wrapped box of magic cards in the basement from when I was a kid.

Turns out it's fallen empires, ha.

Well, yeah, I'm gonna try to not look a gift horse in the mouth, but with a quick check, if it was anything else from that era (other than homelands), it would be 2-25x that, and would be likely easier to sell for the mtggoldfish price. At least it's not homelands I guess.

My dad's a collector of dumb crap (and not dumb crap like now-expensive bourbon). He's got stuff worth way more, wish he found one of the dual lands I probably got rid of 20-25 years ago instead, those would be worth at least that much and way easier to liquidate.

Honestly I bet the pandemic/crypto-money-laundering bubble will somehow make him rich, despite my disbelief over the years, since we are in the dumbest timeline. Though checking a bunch of other things down there not much of this 90s-era collectibles-bubble crap has really appreciated much.

Sometimes, there's a man, well, he's the man for his time and place. He fits right in there. And that's Jimmy T.
I am playing a pretty mediocre red/green deck in Premier Draft right now on arena but on this last match, my humble little 1/1 Snarling Wolf put in some serious work. Dealt 15 damage to the opponent over the game and killed 5 creatures. Granted I used some tricks, but still it was pretty amazing. Definitely the MVP of the deck right now.

Wait fallen empires boxes are 600 bucks now? Amazing. The most overprinted useless garbage set. There sure are some stupid speculators out there.

MTGO is being moved from WOTC development to daybreak games, notable for being a company that mostly handles maintenance mode mmos.

Our short-term focus will be on ensuring the transition runs smoothly, that all our systems are supported, and players can continue to have fun with new card sets as they are released. We have a robust card set schedule in 2022, with Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty just around the corner (and previews starting soon!). Streets of New Capenna, Dominaria United, and The Brothers' War will all bring awesome worlds to explore, while Double Masters 2022 and Commander Legends: Battle for Baldur's Gate content are sure to spice up the eternal formats. We'll also continue to lean into offering new and exciting cubes and alternative play experiences, starting with a new spotlight cube in early January.
Double masters 2022 is going to spice up eternal formats?

quote:

Once our publisher transition is complete, you can expect to hear more about where the team wants to take the game in the future. Updating the battlefield with a focus on multiplayer and Commander play is still a very high priority for the team, along with continuing to modernize some of the underlying systems that run the game. Daybreak Games also brings decades of gaming experience and expertise to the table, and in collaboration with the MTGO team, will be exploring how their knowledge and skills can help improve and grow MTGO for years to come
On MTGO they need to update the battlefield to focus on commander?
There's no way multiplayer is popular on mtgo. (Because commander games take forever to fire and multiplayer queues never fill up)

it's more like there are fewer and fewer boxes of it left so anything that's still sealed will be worth something because it's old and not a lot of people kept it.

if no one wants their fallen empire cards i'm looking for 4 goblin grenades with this art style: https://scryfall.com/card/fem/56b/goblin-grenade. i'll pay $1 + the stamp.

Yeah I'm willing to be enough fallen empires got sold off cheap over the last 25 years the surplus is gone now, especially in regards to sealed boxes.

Yeah Fallen Empires was the go-to cheap pack from ancient sets for chaos drafts and similar shenanigans, but it’s a finite well to draw from.
