It's this Inside Trading that we've seen with Pioneer and now Double Masters that has me wondering why the U.S. Government hasn't called the FBI to investigate Wizards of the Coast on this. Inside Trading technically isn't illegal or considered a financial crime in the United States like Tax Evasion unless it involves the Stock Market and Wall Street. What I don't get is why Paper Trading Card Games / Collectible Card Games like Magic: the Gathering get away with selling loot crates to customers when it's video games like Fortnite and Overwatch that politicians go after the most. If you're a company like Wizards of the Coast then you're basically publicly acknowledging the Secondary Market just by making decisions on what to deny your customers and what to overcharge them for.

Inside trading for something like stocks is a problem, but here its just "cards" and the value is artificial anyway.
Its funny how they keep reprinting the expensive cards in expensive product and repeat year after year.
Would be a lot more interesting if every reprint set would have reprints we did not have before.
Those Urza Land reprints are *massively* overdue.
Agreed. I have a feeling we are going to see Oubliette as well. About time right? 27 years in the making. What they choose to reprint will never be enough in my estimation.

Gavin confirmed earlier they have plans for Oubliette earlier in that interview with the professor it's either this or commander legends
Yes that is why I mentioned it. That and the 27 years and counting it is taking to reprint a sorely needed card in Pauper.

Quite a few people out there for quite some time that are not employees of WotC as evidenced by the emails shared in that video. (if legit) Your guesses are a possibility. The earlier ones listed are practically a given.

It's not $16 a pack, it's $13/pack. I'm sure the price is at or near UMA's price.
As for the list of cards, none of those are surprising sans the Urza Lands, though those have needed a reprint for a really long time now. If I had to guess what the rares/mythics would be, all of them would be on the list except for Karn Liberated, as we just gt him in UMA. None of those are real surprises and could easily be a fan's guess. Now if the list had P3K cards like Capture of Jingzhou or Zodiac Dragon, or something like Grim Tutor or Goblin Settler and they're all in the set, then I could see concern over the leak. But all of those cards are cards anybody would expect to see in a Masters set.
None of those are real surprises and could easily be a fan's guess.
The thing is the one email named the set, named the Summer time frame and named the double rares and double foils as well. That is WAY more than a fans wishlist, that is insider knowledge. Of course it could have been faked. We will see.

I will point out that the Mox Opal seems odd. These lists were emailed out as early as February but the Mox was banned in Modern (it’s primary home, to my knowledge) in January.
I’m wondering if we should take that as a sign of an impending un-ban (as with JTMS in eternal masters) but that would imply that wizards started planning to unban the card one month after they banned it... which would be all kinds of weird.
My best guess was that the list was taken from early planning from the set and that Mox has since been replaced with something else. Will be kind of funky otherwise.

But as it is, they keep reprinting the same money cards over and over again and just call it a new set ...

He also mentioned a batch of five fetches would only be slightly more expensive than $160.
Don’t remember Gavin saying it. Blake Rassmusen definitely did in Prof’s video.
BAfter the lights go out on you, after your worthless life is through. I will remember how you scream...B
Because a reminder of a supsoive leak got 3 things right
Set name
double rares and foils
And 2 of the reprints so far
And the other cards on it is these

it (probably) fits that draft environment better.
My point being that they say things that are not always true.
It's not $16 a pack, it's $13/pack. I'm sure the price is at or near UMA's price.
