I've been fine with just playing the ones that I've listed and Sol Ring/Mana Crypt/Signet/Ancient Tomb/Untaidake. However, I plan on taking out Sol Ring and Mana Crypt. After initially missing Into the North, I figured that I might be missing another. I had no idea that Three Visits existed. I will definitely be looking at that card when I take out Sol Ring and Mana Crypt.
Three Visits in english is worth more dollars than a Sol Ring if price is an option. They are not easy to find. __________________ Member Since 03/28/2001 12000+ posts 1st in posts in Ontario and Canada 9th in posts on MOTL 5th in Refs in Ontario Pushing to get to top 100 in MOTL Refs

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'll never be able to trade for one on MOTL. Edit: I know that sounds rly sarcastic, but I genuinely don't think I'll be able to trade for one.

That search misses Nature's Lore and Three Visits. Because I can be very, very specific, asking MOTL is more useful to me. Gatherer is a powerful tool, but for my purposes, I think MOTL is much better I do use gatherer a lot.

It's because I used land instead of library.http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?action=advanced&text=+[Search]+[land]+[battlefield]&cmc=+=[2] No color restriction though, so you get Transmute Artifact and Reshape.

These days it seems more likely that we get two creatures with good ETB burn triggers than two instants/sorceries.

I doubt that even more. Burn is already weak. Red ETB is also weak.

Young Pyromancer makes blue red aggro/burn look really good already. i think it'll be fine.__________________ "He fights you not because you have wronged him, but because you are there."<@BrassMan> what do you need new tech for? <@BrassMan> gush is unrestricted <@Anusien> Pretty sure New Zealanders are the sheep shaggers <KIP_NZ> Anusien: I'm a kiwi and I've shagged a sheep

I will definitely be building decks with 4 Young Pyromancers in them. I just don't have any idea how good they will be.

could also go RW. Legions Initiative, Boros Charm, sunhome guildmage, massive raid (lol), frontline medic, righteous charge. Yea looks good in boros too.__________________ "He fights you not because you have wronged him, but because you are there."<@BrassMan> what do you need new tech for? <@BrassMan> gush is unrestricted <@Anusien> Pretty sure New Zealanders are the sheep shaggers <KIP_NZ> Anusien: I'm a kiwi and I've shagged a sheep

What cards in Modern should see a decent increase in value sometime within ~6mos? Staples sure, but thinking random rare/mythics that see little enough play to be pricey but not 'staple. Like Linvala, would not say staple, but...

Does anyone happen to know if the DotP 2014 multiplayer option would work between an Android tablet and an iPad? I can't seem to find anything one way or the other, but would like to buy Nderwife the game if it meant we could play the sealed deck part against each other.__________________ There's no need to fear, UNDERDOG is here!All your Gruul Nodorogs are belong to me.

Nder, I don't think the different versions can play eachother. I've also been looking by haven't found a firm answer anywhere.

Within 6 months? Possibly some elfball pieces, possibly thrun, definitely fastlands, and definitely spellskite. Its still blowing my mind how slowly people are incorporating spellskites into sideboards, considering the sheer utility of the guy.

How come you say that about the aggro/burn archetype? Young Pyromancer does not require any burn spells and the tokens don't have haste. You don't have to play any burn at all with Young Pyro. Seems super nice with Flashback still available in the format. It's basically Talrand's little brother and not legendary. Which isn't bad, because being half the cc is really good for a card like that and being 2cc is much easier on mana when you want to build a deck around super super cheap spells. IF young pyromancer required burn, then you'd be in trouble since there is a dearth of playable burn.

I really wish Phyrexian mana was still legal in standard.

beacuse he's a 2/1 for 2 that makes small dudes. he doesnt have an impact late game. Assemble the Legion sees no play for a reason, it's too slow. Pyromancer gives you extra value out of your cantrips and burn spells, which is where the deck needs help. Shock just isn't good enough, shock that makes a 1/1 might be enough. __________________ "He fights you not because you have wronged him, but because you are there."<@BrassMan> what do you need new tech for? <@BrassMan> gush is unrestricted <@Anusien> Pretty sure New Zealanders are the sheep shaggers <KIP_NZ> Anusien: I'm a kiwi and I've shagged a sheep

Yeah, that looks "Treated as Heavily Played" good. Not 700 dollars good.
