2 weeks ago I would've laughed at you

I miss my Legacy tournaments. I hope I can play one again, soon. Plus I hope that the new set gets a good mill-card. Makes my tourney report much more interesting

Yup. Coincidentally we had a (minor) stormish-thing going on over here when I created the topic, too.

So, on topic, does anybody else play mill?

Edit: Me a few weeks ago; "I'll wait to pick up those Protean Hulks. Prices have been stable for a while."

Overall, less money to be won and fewer high profile events to play in means less people are interested in playing the format. That's driving card prices.

Any ideas? Legacy legal and old frames only!

Never played it, but cool idea! Would like to know how it performs in a tourney

As for myself, I'm thinking about making a G/W Enchantress deck. What would be the funnest way to win with an Enchantress deck? Emrakul doesn't count as fun.

Yes, you should lol.

That does put my ebay buys into perspective...I bought so many dual lands at that time for about $5-10 bucks each. Thing is, in 1995 I was buying them for $7.50 and that was considered a steal.

Was it just the growing internet market that drove prices down in 2000?

I would suspect an increase in competition led to a decrease in price.

The dual lands didn't rotate out of extended until November 1st, 2002. In 2001/2002 I was buying duals at $8-$11 ($11 for sea) fairly consistently. It wasn't until the 10th anniversary of magic and mtg was inducted into the gaming hall of fame that prices started going up a lot if memory serves. By 2007 underground sea was probably around $30
