I'm really disappointed by this stupid cash grab, this card should have been an uncommon especially considering it's meant for budget players who won't break the bank buying actual fetches, but hey, now everybody who doesn't own a lot of fetches is going to chase after this card to plug missing fetch slots. I guess we can count on a cycle of common/uncommon mana fixing in the set.
Except that this will never reach the actual fetch lands prices
That's some consolation right there,considering Scalding Tarnis pushing 100 bucks...personally, I would have liked an uncommon fetch cycle, kinda like:
Affordable Tarn:
Pay 1 life, sac: fetch a basic Island or Mountain.
Established players will stick to their fetches, and people getting into Modern (which is the supposed aim of the set) will rush to get as many of these as they can and start brewing half-decent decks at least.
why would you ever need a cycle when this card does everything you need, the only reason you put the search for mountain, island is to fetch non basic lands. Prismatic Vista does what you are looking for minus making an entire cycle. If they wanted a budget fetch they would print the mirage fetches.
This thread is full of idiots... Lightning Bolt is NOT being reprinted.
Many times has a writer in Wizards said so, because of the plain and simple fact that it's too powerful for what it costs. x/3 creatures shouldn't be able to die at instant speed for one mana without a signifigant drawback. (like PTE giving you a land)
I absolutely guarantee that LB will not be printed in M10, and you can quote me on that.
