I meant compared with the MM1 set, where half of the Mythics were crap, and most of the Rares were awesome. I know, that several cards will tank hard, but still, it is nice to see actual good cards in the Mythic-Rare slots.

Every day that passes without Serum Visions, Remand, and Damnation being spoiled, I get a little closer to giving up on everything and crying in the fetal position.
I doubt that Remand or Damnation will be reprinted in MM2 and don't see why people expect them to be.
They're in-demand and in need of reprinting. I don't think R&D wants either of them in Standard, so this seems like a fine place. I agree that Damnation is unlikely because it's a current judge promo, but I don't see why being in a DD disqualifies Remand. They're certainly not guaranteed, but I'm hoping they'll be included.
Remand with horrible jace vs vraska art. Couldn't sell my IRL remands in time but they will hold value from actually having good art. Regardless cya 15 dollar remands hello 5 dollars.
Alright, the rest of you can bellyache and grumble all you want, but I am officially a fan of MM2! WotC has bent over backwards to put cards in here that most of us were complaining about not being able to get enough of. As long as the commons continue the trend of being playable format staples, I will be just about delighted with every pack I open.

Yeah, but you wouldn't want Urza lands in the basic land slot, because then in draft everybody's flooded in them and not everybody is going to have a reason to run them. Besides, it's not like the Urza lands are expensive to get.

Yeah I'm on route for getting my antiques Urza's lands, and I don't want a reason to second guess myself haha.
Other than that, Remand is very good and will hopefully tank it's price. Glad I got rid of mine a wile ago. Now all that's left is Serum visions at Common otherwise we'll see a 15$ nonfoil common card... And with the lack of scry I wonder if they'll include it at all?
Other than that I am feeling like the overall value of this set is lower than previous ones? I'm sure there'll be articles on the EV per pack/box once the whole set drops, but for now I just don't have the same hype as the first time around...
Guys please opinions on japanese cards. Lost a 3/3 creature against Japan celestial colonade. This guy played all creatures and spells in english cards, but some cards in his manabase was japanese. I dont registrated this really ( my brain say its all fine and all english to me lets attack his empty board)...and i am sure it is a Kind of legal cheating. It is not ok, but i know legal. I Hate such people. I never forget colonade normally, but with this Tricks it can happen one time in 3 years and such people take advantage of this
If I am a customer spending premium amount of dollars, I expect a premium service. Jund falls into the category of a premium deck costing more dollars than a majority of the rest of the format. I'm not getting the desired performance ratio per dollars spent out of the Jund deck because WOTC decided to make the format more diverse.
Hurkyl's Recall is a $5 rare.

The card was actually at 60 at some point.
Yeah, I can agree with that.

Its not that bad but its too I dunno CG? and I prefer the old art too.
You are not, I prefer the DD art over the original (though the Promo foil is by far the best)

No man. New art is like a million times better. I traded my playset of the original ones for the new ones

Still vaguely disappointed about the lack of black-bordered Urza lands, but I guess you can't have it all...

So far the reprints have been really encouraging. Remand, Noble Hierarch, Fulminator Mage, Wilt-Leaf Liege, Leyline of Sanctity - all are cards that I think "damn, this shouldn't cost THAT much". They even reprinted Creakwood Liege, a $10 EDH-only card.
Serum Visions and Azusa, Lost but Seeking (I mean, there's Primeval Titan and bouncelands...) would make me really happy. Oh, and Might of Old Krosa. We'll know for sure tomorrow.

Really? So far it seems like most of the Modern playables are at mythic while a bunch of cards like Mystic Snake, Ghost Council of Orzhova, Creakwood Liege, All Suns' Dawn, and Horde of Notions are at rare.
Storm Crow is strictly worse than Seacoast Drake.
