Hi MTG-Gaf,
Sorry to intrude (mods feel free to delete if inappropriate), but quick question from someone who started MTG with 1-month buying frenzy and now has to unload their collection: What would be a fair price to sell everything? I have someone offering $80, which I'm inclined to take up on:
Here are all my cards: Deckbox
Also included is:
2x Ultrapro Clear Plastic Deckboxes
1x MTG Black Leather Deckbox
1x Black Ultrapro Plastic Deckbox
1x Dragon Shield Black Sleeves (what I wrapped my rares in)
1x Dragon Shield Pink Sleeves (what I wrapped the Green/Red deck in)
1x Dragon Shield Purple Sleeves (unopened!)
20x 9-card Ultrapro Binder Sleeves
Buttload of Ultra-Pro Clear Sleeves
1x Big-ass 20-sided Dice (cream)
1x Regular 20-sided Dice (marbled green)
1x 36-pack of 6-sided Token Dice (marbled)
1x 12-pack of 6-sided Token Dice (frosted)
1x Black playing mat
6x White Long Cardboxes
The Lot
Thanks for your time!

I think that block counts in the sense that it can give a good idea of what to run at rotation.
So what did best in the block format?
The best 2 decks seem to be GBx midrange and esper control. RG Elspeth is pretty good too. There are a few aggro decks but I don't know how good they really are yet.

Thanks, I'll have to look into decklists.

I believe the seat ordering is random, but we did know they were going to be in the same pod and play each other, yes.

Speculating about rotation is kind of pointless though since there's no way to know what's in either the fall block or the Core set.

If there is a strong deck in block you can look for cards that enhance it.
Its a known strategy, but I agree it may not always work out.

I know that I'm super excited for it.
Was something new spoiled?
I wouldn't be surprised to see TNN show up.
Time Walk or Ancestral? Yeah, that's fair.

Game going on right now with it.

Definitely getting a few of these in my cube
I think that is tomorrow after the Quarterfinals? Or maybe after the semis.
That seems like it would be awkward for playing in a store since the booster has to come from somewhere.
I still feel like this would be a way more compelling product if it wasn't coming in boosters, but whatever.

Darn, on my phone. Plug-in won't work.
I really hope it's a nice foiling process. Still need to get a set of StP but can't stand the art on the judge foil, the FTV one is ugly, and the FNM one is too expensive and even then they're hard to find from non-vendors.
Plus the rest of my foils are all from the original pack printing and this is the first time that's happened with StP.
Here's the Conspiracy video if anyone missed it: http://youtu.be/U09xnozP3gQ
I hate giving click throughs to Reddit, but here are the cards that were spotted in the Conspiracy thing today.

Maybe Paul should have played faster? With a draw, Jon still has an outside shot at Top 8. They both do actually so its not like a draw knocks them both out.
I understand and he's within his right. Just saying.
Paul is apparently a notoriously slow player- commentators were even joking on day one that he's always the last guy in the Feature Match area

Awesome.
Changes my opinion a bit then. Nothing wrong with taking your time but yeah you do need to realize when to speed it up.

Sweet. Thanks.
Funny getting two Dack's in one game. I want to buy a box of this for a draft party at my house.

So from watching the Conspiracy video, it actually does look like fun, but almost certainly only with people you're comfortable playing with in your playgroup. The idea of drafting this set with randoms at a pre-release actually sounds kind of awful.
I cannot stand multiplayer.
But will happily put these artifact cards in my semi-custom cube!

Feels bad, man.
Had opponent down to 4 life (vs. 18) with 2 Desecration Demons on the field and he hits me with his Hypnotic Siren to draw an extra card. The extra cards are Master of Waves and a Nykthos so he can cast every card in his hand, activate Thassa and put 8 tokens on the field.

Yeah, I hate multiplayer as well. I'd be way more interested if this was designed around 4 1v1 matches instead of multiplayer games. If there is a store event around release I'll probably play once, but then never again.
BTW, enjoy staring at these beauties, you aren't going to be able to afford enough of them when they are released (rumor is they are judge promos)

I've never drafted before so I'm excited, multiplayer or not. I like the more powerful cards to obtain as well.
If you have never drafted before, you should probably change that stat. This probably isn't a very good first experience because of how extra complicated the draft will be

I really don't want to draft this at a store. I really only want to draft it with my playgroup, because I know these guys and we'll take it just un-seriously enough to be fun.

don't care. I'm getting 23 of those islands.
no i'm not ;.;
Yeah, this seems like it could be miserable to draft at an unfamiliar LGS. Too much stuff going on, people taking shit 2seriously, confusing judge calls, etc.
Conspiracy is a more marketable Unglued/Unhinged. I don't think I'd ever want to draft unhinged with randoms, especially with prizes on the line.
probably easier than, say, taking the judge test 23 times with different mentors under different names :V
I think the new lands will be given out in larger quantities than we're all thinking, though. Magic needs more judges, and these seem like a great way to incentivize new ones. I can see them becoming 'little rewards' for things like passing the judge test, judging at smaller events, full sets for judging at large events, etc.

Full art lands are definitely due for a comeback. Perhaps they're going out in advance as judge foils, but we'll still see them in the fall set.
I know, I know.
I know, I know.

Watching Utter-Leyton lose game one like that was brutal.
EDIT: Wizards really needs to embrace spectacle. Two guys sitting at a table surrounded by acres of empty space is so...anti-climatic. Have an audience watching the feed that you can cut to cheering and/or pouting, get live reactions, etc.
