You still can't have more than one in play. That's a pretty significant drawback I wouldn't necessarily call lazy but is something very obvious they could try. It worked out okay for the bonus-ability lands from Kamigawa (Minamo, etc) that tended to get splashed into the mix because they came in handy from time to time.

I once almost lost to the legendary landwalk guy in Kamigawa because I had Shizo. That was funny-ish. The format really needs at least some non-basic hate. like a 2/1 CITP kill a non-basic dude for 2R or something.

They should print a Price of Progress that costs 3R or 2RR __________________ 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

Bringing back Price of Progress back would be hilarious and terrible at the same time. Can't even bring back something like Anathemancer likely until Restoration Angel rotates. __________________ Blog: http://wings0298.blogspot.com/ Scans:http://s1199.photobucket.com/user/Wings0298/library/?sort=3&page=1

Looking at that card makes me think a "fixed" Price of Progress would cost about 5R at a minimum __________________ 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

Ruination reprint would be cute. Straight up one-sided Armgeddon in the Red based aggro deck for the most part.

Makes me miss Price of Progress so much. Has MTG changed so much that we can't have more than one playable burn spell at one time in standard?

You DO realise this is infinite mana with any of the "counting" lands and a crucible right? crucible only costs 3 also, so that makes it stupid easy.

For the longest time the burn in standard was Hammer and shock. We actually have it better than most of the time.

What? How do you intend to play any of them an infinite number of times in a turn? __________________ *My LJ*Letter Bombs!*FB*Logout- MM is a copycat! (So am I)*CKGB

Burn was insanely deadly in the time of Hammer of Bogardan and Shock.

I think they could do that at the 5R cost in the form of a creature. 2/2 when it enters the battlefield each player takes 2 damage for each non basic land he or she controls or else 4R for a 1/1 that does 1 damage for each non basic land.
