So there's no chance for acidic slime or birds of paradise in m14 now why not, looks like I'm done with standard.

They likely don't want Deathrite and BOP in the same standard would make a goodstuff deck possible (8 1 drop mana fixers).

What evidence gives you the "no chance"

Would you be referring to Arbor Elf or Avacyn's Pilgrim? Don't think Deathrite is able to accelerate mana in the current standard.

Agreed...unless you think they'll be reprinting fetch lands soon...in which case...someone shoot me in the face...fetches and shocks in standard...does anyone else miss seeing basic lands in standard?

I didn't say it was a good BOP bases guy but its still a chance of having 8 of them.

Also the new named Llanowar elf pretty much gives away no reprint of BoP

Well just because of the new mana elf bop still can see a reprint due to they were in a few core sets

I think he means that since there is already one 1 cost green mana accelerating creature in M14 it's slim chances of a second creature that fills a similar slot.

I honestly think bop is better just because he makes it easier to play multi color decks even with the shocks

I miss when Sengir Vampire, Shivan Dragon and Serra Angel was the best kitchen-table finishers you could get... As well as Sinkholes!
