There's money pouring out of these boosters. You bet your ass those things will at least double that once the set see's more play, and might even break $5 a pop once the second set in the block comes out. Speaking of lands, I just spent about $80 to buy up roughly 50 copies of the "Ally Encampment" land earlier today because they're only going for $1.66 right now. People are going to be snatching up boxes of cards When fat packs for this set hit people are going to go apeshit buying them up because each one contains like 80 basic lands.
Just as an example, the full-art forests from the last set go for over a buck a piece. Even the goddamn basic lands are expected to shoot up in value after the set cycles out because they're full-arts. There's a lot of insanely valuable stuff floating around in the new set. I don't want to shill for Magic because there is a lot of shit wrong with it but it's a fairly decent time to get back into it. I still think Netrunner is the superior game because it doesn't have this bullshit economic model of milking the playerbase like a farm animal in addition to the two-decks = twice as much tech. Potentially a complete nightmare depending on where you live and what the community is like there. Limited Standard is cheap, fun, and immediate, but there are no big tournaments for it just tiny local stuff with whoever is in your local pool. Fuck that.Ĭonstructed Standard is a slightly smaller clusterfuck that is slightly cheaper to play but comes with the caveat that all the cards you buy will phase out after 18 months and become worthless to you (outside of the rare example where a card is potent in Modern/Legacy, in which case it probably already cost you an arm and a leg to get in the first place). Modern is still a big fat clusterfuck with a barrier of entry in the $600 range for a single competitive deck. It's taken them literally fucking forever but it seems like they've finally gotten their shit together and someone at Wizards finally took a course in game design.
#OCTGN IMAGE PACKS BROKEN HOW TO#
Realized they were starting to print pure bullshit all over again and got the fuck back out.ġ0 years later I'm exposed to the game again and see they have mostly figured out how to stop being completely fucking retarded and printing mostly consistently decent sets of cards. Years later I saw some friends playing with Apocalypse cards and was like "Oh man they are making GOOD cards again! I gotta get back in!"
People were shitting all over me constantly with cards they didn't print anymore and none of the new stuff I could buy held a candle to it. It wasn't until Homelands that I realized none of the sets I have been playing with have any of these fucking awesome cards in them. Yeah I bought in when I saw everyone playing with these fucking baller awesome cards.
