This week, the cast talks about recent news in the Magic finance world, including:

  • Brain in a Jar, which is a stylistically very cool card
  • the UW Eldrazi deck’s mirror breaker in Calciform Pools
  • Whether Chandra Flamecaller is overpriced at $18 or Gideon is underpriced at $18

And plenty more!

Doug Linn has been playing Magic since 1996 and has had a keen interest in Legacy and Modern. By keeping up closely with emerging trends in the field, Doug is able to predict what cards to buy and when to sell them for a substantial profit. Since the Eternal market follows a routine boom-bust cycle, the time to buy and sell short-term speculative investments is often a narrow window. Because Eternal cards often spike in value once people know why they are good, it is essential for a trader to be connected to the format to get great buys before anyone else. Outside of Magic, Doug is an attorney in the state of Ohio.  Doug is a founding member of Quiet Speculation, and brings with him a tremendous amount of business savvy.
