I approach the cards from two different angles, though...I don't mind having Mindsparker because I'll get Wayne Reynolds to sign copies at Spectrum Fantasy Art Live 3 this summer for the pretties book. Pain Seer is the same...cool art and I like Tyler, so at the least they will be a conversation piece with him.I've confirmed myself not to do any pre-orders that aren't FoS - endorsed after blowing $12 on Mindsparker

Makes me think that the black-based rakdos humans aggro deck might be the more powerful rakdos deck coming up...
Also, I like the eidolon, but not sure I like it as much as y'all seem too... I dunno, I guess if your opponent is out of removal, but considering how much of that there is around atm...

I, for one, would like to welcome our new firebreathing narwhal overlords.

I have an urge to stick that six-drop wizard in an EDH deck with Gravitational Shift and Moat just because.

A few things to consider when buying these cards at preorder price:
# It's the second set in the block, it will be drafted for a while before going out of print. These cards are not safe investments due to this.
# Small set, but thus far we've seen good reasons to open it. That being said, if it isn't mythic, you shouldn't be buying it right now. People are going to open a lot of these packs if the set turns out to be good. Think of it akin to how much Mirrodin Besieged (good set) got opened vs. Dragon's Maze. (Bad set.)
# You'll have some time for the smoke to clear in which to buy your cards. The metagame isn't going to settle very quickly, you can keep playing your old decks for a few weeks just fine. Buy your new staples once we know what they are to avoid buying into a dud.

Oh PS: Don't forget to look backwards. Sometimes you can get out from under cards that are about to bomb in value, as well as pick up old cards that were not seeing play but have the potential to see play based on new cards entering the pool. I made a lot of money last season doing this and I intend to do the same this year.

Yeah, its awful, doesn't hit players and has a conditional scry.Did everyone already see this? It's supposedly the Buy-A-Box Promo. 5 damage and scry 2 for 1 at rare.
Exactly...this is one of our rares, and the BAB Promo as well? Don't guess I'll be wasting gas to drive 30 miles to pick up a box...
Oh, and Seer is now selling out at $5.99...

Buy a box promos can't all be winners. Remember Memoricide?

You mean a card that featured heavily in the top 8 of worlds 2010? Memoricide was very good.

Memorcide was fine. Extraction affects are conditionally good based on the format. That format had decks that fell apart without a card(prime time, jace, etc.). Slaughter games sees like, zero play(though rakdos without a scry land is admittedly a big deal).
You gotta understand, I love the beatdown. I really do. I always have.
Beatdown is hard, though.
