	You thought they'd do another Selecting The Core Set promotion, didn't you? Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

I certainly didn't. They kept dropping comments in their articles about "Oh, we were sure the Llanowar Elves would get in", "We thought Crusade should have been a mortal lock", "My first reaction to the idea was 'No way.'"

I was wrong.

Point of discussion:

They're taking out Birds of Paradise after all. I knew it. They claim they'll be reprinted in the next large expansion, but still

Whats Micheal got to do with this? I don't see this information helping him in bulldozing his opponents arguements...

I don't think MtG replies to any of these threads. I think is some kind of in-joke with Mr President...

Anyway... *casts mod summoning*

I don't know. I guess this might be a factual thread, but without reading it, how the hell would I be able to tell? :shrug:

Hehe, I meant Magic: The Gathering. That's what I thought the thread was about, since most threads in this forum I don't understand are about it.

Well, you have to see to going trend anyway. Wizard runs out of ideas=puts stars from old sets into their new sets (ala wrath, birds, etc. etc. etc.). Word of advice: Stop while you are ahead. I got out when Exodus hit because $20 dollars for a computer game was much better than $150 worth of booster boxes. Magic has been cheapened by greed. They don't care what you want.

You know, I'm tempted.

If not now, then maybe after Kamigawa. Right now I feel that I want to get some of the Japanese-themed cards before I retire again.

I still play with my old decks sometimes and I destroy most of the fad decks that roll through every new expansion. People don't play me anymore because they are tired of being owned

What set did you go out on? Depending on if it was Urza block, I can see why no one would want to play you.

Well, the Tempest saga had a lot of very fast creatures and spells. Onslaught, by contrast, was rather slow and had a much higher average mana cost. I could easily imagine a Tempest-era red deck rolling over an Onslaught-era creature deck.

Ye gods! I've just looked at the WotC card sets page. It turns out that since I stopped collecting they've quadrupled their card sets to nearly 40! I hadn't realised it was nearly 10 years since I said "never again" after my final pack of Ice Age. Its about time I sorted the darn things out and sold them for a profit. Heck, maybe just the beta and unlimited rares, they look like they can cover my outlay costs alone

They've been sitting in boxes in the top cupboard for years, why not make some cash out of them? If some enthusiast wants to pay silly money for beta mox cards etc then I'll happily accept. I doubt I could play anyone credibly these days anyway, with all the rules additions and changes that have gone on.

If you have any of these (Black Lotus, Time Walk, Ancestral Recall, Moxes, Timetwister), you have stupid amounts of money.
