Modern Database (Lists / Prices / Links) Updated 12/21/11
DATABASE INFO
This thread's idea is to list all popular / good decks in modern, and put a price tag on them. I will not include sideboard prices because sideboards are usually relative to your metagame. Prices are from the medium of http://magiccards.info, and rounded to the nearest $0.25. All prices are also from the cheapest version/edition of the card. "TPL" stands for "Ten Proxy Limit"; I will also put each deck's price with the 10 most expensive cards eliminated, for those who play in non-sanctioned tournaments that have a TPL. Those prices will be found within each spoiler.
THREAD RULES AND POSTING GUIDELINES
This thread is just to give an overview of each deck's price and and to discuss improvements to the lists. If you don't approve of a decklist, give a new one and a detailed reason why you don't approve. Keep in mind that price discussion should be kept here. However, if the list is out of date due to a card drastically jumping or falling in price, it is appropriate to post. This does not mean a jump / fall under $3. The prices are only approximates in the first place. Also, if you catch typos / hyperlink errors, reporting those would be nice as well. Also, when posting, keep in mind that I am not God, nor do I have huge amounts of time to spend fixing this every day. I may edit a list and not edit the TPL, due to the assumption that the price wouldn't fluctuate too much. If my math is wrong by a bit, it doesn't matter much; again, these are just approximations of the prices anyways. If it is off by quite a bit, however, notification is appreciated.
