Don't ever sell your collection if there is ANY chance you'll want to play again.

But yes, Time Spiral got unbanned in legacy, and it needs candelabra x4 to be good enough. Big demand spike.

one reason I always end up selling my stuff is because everyone around where i live only plays like T2 and booster drafts and I really just hate new magic cards for the most part. I can't believe they made that stupid new card that is better than phyrexian negator and juzam djinn. They've always made cards that kind of resembled an older godly card but weren't quite as good. they've gone too far. I think richard garfield should give the rights to MTG to someone who won't ruin it and make it for 12 year olds.

there exists no guesture forceful enough I can make in response to this. Facepalm is nowhere near strong enough.

I know how you feel, I felt like that when they announced the new card template for the front. I love the way old cards look.

Just to elaborate: it was a deck (called Solidarity--I know you know, it's just for the benefit of others), and it was a storm combo deck that aimed to mill the opponent with Brain Freeze and force them to draw cards with Stroke of Genius, thereby losing the game. Unfortunately, its biggest opponent was itself: the player would go through 1029283420 shenanigans, contort his deck into all kinds of knots (brilliantly, I might add), and ultimately fizzle (after about 15 minutes of solo play). If the player wasn't particularly good or familiar with the deck, s/he would fizzle earlier.

And then Candelabra and Time Spiral were unbanned, and Blue Sun's Zenith were printed, and all of a sudden the deck became consistent and largely stopped beating itself. Candelabra replaces Reset, which makes a big difference (for one thing, the deck no longer needs to go off during its opponent's turn).
