Ok, I was indeed going by Wizard's terminology.

I doubt they'll rise, I'm already talking to them about my order and they've been quite reliable in the past.

Yeah, thanks, I will :). Got my 1 copy for EDH already, just need to find 3 more.

I've been taking the liberty of calling Modern an "Eternal" format for simplicity. Perhaps Wizards doesn't use the same classification, but since Modern will never rotate it seems more comparable to Legacy than Standard or even Extended.

Keep an eye on those booster box prices…they may go up a little more before release since we still have about 1/2 the set to be spoiled!

You definitely want to consider picking Linvala up. I suppose if Kiki-Jiki was banned in Modern she may become less popular. But there are so many creature strategies in Modern that Linvala has become very relevant. I've been main-decking one copy in my Kiki/Melira Pod deck.

Lol, not a problem! It doesn't track the actual values, but it compares % gains between the two. But at least you can see the two curves plotted together to compare performance. 🙂

In these parts I can still get RtR boxes at their normal preorder prices of about €82.5-€85 ($105-$109). As I like to get a playset of the commons, many of the uncommons and quite a few of the rares while also keeping some of my trade stock current I intend to get and open 2 boxes.

I didn't realize Linvala has gone up that far, I should probably work on finishing my set before they go further.

Somehow, I had never noticed that BLP could track two cards against each other. Score one for tunnel vision. Thanks Sig!
