Yep, that was probably me. A ton of people wanted to take pictures of it.

Keep in mind that the cards I have are not in wrappers, just use the boxes for storage.

Shelf in my wardrobe with a DeckMaster Garfield VS Finkel silver box (decks are inside + enveloppes/top loaders for trades on MOTL) 1 Ultra-Pro binder that I can wear on my shoulder with 75 x 9 pages full of random crappy rares/foils + my "good" section at the end (my have list on motl) and 1 small binder with a Brom picture on it (prolly ultra-pro, didn't check) with all my unlisted stuff that I'm reluctant to trade.

That's it, I hate having a lot of binders/boxes, I tend to sell my commons/uncommons to new players for like 5$ a boxe and I always trade up at the local store to help me thinner my collection down with bigger cards.

-there has to be artifacts worth playing in a type two deck

-they have to be played in a deck that also runs islands because if the deck doesnt have island it likely has forest or mountain meaning it has lightning bolts and blockers.

-it has to be playable as a four of in a deck that is heavy blue.

-the artifact from scars has to be good enough to warrant four slots of a 2/2 for UU1 just to grab.

even if all these requirements are met, it still seems like thada will be a sideboard card. And plus, Thada is a regular rare. a sideboard only playable non mythic rare could never breach $2. but i suppose there is still some profit to be made in the coins.

Spreading seas is not only good, but makes Thada unblockable as well. It seems the format is going to lean to the point were Thada is going to be absolutely nuts. Even if it only jumps to 2 bucks I'll be making 8 times my money off of the 100 or so I've already picked up, so it seems like a fine investment.

really, whats the proof there will be a lot of artifacts in scars?

The problem is that nobody plays Thada. I did for a while when I played Noble Fish, but it was considered a "rogue idea".

no that title actually goes to another 3cc blue card that everyone already is playing over thada

In 1.5 Thada is currently the best SB option vs the Thopter decks as well... its VERY good, and people are starting to catch on to it.

But yeah Thada is kinda like a Tinker...except ya don't have to sac anything, ya can use it everyturn, and your pulling the artifacts out of your opponents deck instead of your own.

In Vintage its often an unblockable 1 hit kill... How exactly is that subpar? Its obviously better then Confidant, as AT WORST it generates the same amount of card advantage every turn, while still being usable with force of will, and not popping you for damage, while at best just ending the game in a single hit which confidant can't really do. There really isn't much reason to run Confidant over Thada in any vintage deck unless your expecting an unpowered meta of some sort.

Has competitive vintage deteriorated so much lately that people do not realize this?

In the new T2 Thada will effectively be a confidant, being able to draw you an extra card out of your opponents library every turn all without the life loss, and at a similar cost. It should be very very good.

I also have far more of them, that was just what was on my desk lol...I've been picking them up for 10-25 cents a piece for months now. With that said if anybody wants to sell any I will buy any number of them from anyone at 25 cents a piece.

Oh and here is a neat swamp...
