Sylvain Lehoux goes down the list of cards he’s acquiring or watching this week, with the accompanying rationale for each.
Shadow of Doubt
MTGO Player of the Year Paul Nemeth has a Bitterblossom Brew that’s neither Faeries nor B/x Tokens, yet can still kill an opponent out of nowhere. Could this be the new home of the recently unbanned Enchantment?
Several months in advance of the Modern season, prices are already moving on MTGO. Sylvain Lehoux looks at the state of Modern in light of data from past years.
Corbin Hosler examines the aftermath of the last few prominent Modern spikes, and explains what it means for future Modern speculation.
Jared Elick looks at the effect of the increasing popularity of Modern on foil prices and the long-awaited arrival of control as a viable archetype.
I’d like to think that this is Abraham Lincoln’s calls, like the Great Emancipator has reached out from beyond space and time to tell us what to grab in Modern. How plain, then, that this is about the best cards to watch, to pick up, and to ditch in the wake of Grand Prix: Lincoln.
