I think anything under 15 is the floor, this card is too good in a midrange/control meta and I think that is where this metagame will head

I expect to see more G/W in the future since Centaur Healer is very good against mono-red

I think people were just lazy this weekend, afraid to make the first move. God cards also very bad against a deck like Mono-red where they do not give you time to set up your card to do the work you want it to.

That said, I think we might not see them until the midrange decks start to develop, and even then, we might need to wait for that meta to settle down

Its just not getting information that is news breaking. It is recapping a weekend, analyzing the trends, and figuring out what to do next. My job is not to spoon feed people to give them an idea how to analyze on their own come to their own conclusions.

Yes, price memory will keep it high. I expect this to mimic Scavenging Ooze/Mutavault in the “recently reprinted eternal format staples” pricing..i.e. it’ll probably hit $14-15, I don’t think $10 is all that likely thanks in large part due to the price memory; but get them at $14-15.

I do not see your point… I found out the article a pretty useful wrap up.

Im really hoping they’ll drop to 12-13, realistically 15 and ideally 10 to scoop up for modern season. Does price memory keep it really high?

Fanatic of Mogis came and pretty much changed everything. If you don’t play removal, Fanatic is at least 6-7 damage, and in a stalled board it can deal 10-12 damage all by itself.

Some people like myself have very active lifestyles and jobs. I do not have time the time to do all the stuff in finance I would like. Information like this is saves me time and also helps compare notes with like minded people. Time is a asset I am especially short on.

I actually have 3x Heliod’s as well…I’m in agreement. Heliod and Erebos have a lot going for them..one provides threats, one provides card advantage.

I’ve been aggressively trading for Heliod as I feel that:

1) He’s still at a price where it’s possible to get in on him cheap

2) He’s the only god that can win a game without help

Just my 0.2c

I’m playtesting a B/W deck that uses Obzedat, Blood Baron, Desecration Demon, Alms Beast, Lifebain Zombie, and Erebos (as well as the Whip)..and it did very well. My only loss was due to mana problems and the deck is quite strong. I really like Erebos in the upcoming environment.

I find it hard to believe that 0 of them will be good. At least with the Core Set Titans cycle, the metagame shifted sufficient to give every Titan a day of glory (for Prime Time it was more like a year of glory). Could the God cards experience the same trends once the metagame matures?

Anyone who was paying attention this weekend should already know this, if you didn’t pay attention chances are you don’t care about finance.
