Yes, it bottomed at 4.5 and is now going to 6… but still far away from the 8.5 tix at which i bought them lol (and just opened another one in an RtR-draft).

thanks for the articles !

In reply to koen_knx. It's true, most of my 'Good Value' calls from RtR haven't panned out. Don't look now though, but Vraska has been moving up lately, =)

The 2nd ability from Domri is almost as good, if not better in some occasions, as the 1st ability. With Boros reckoner or, why not, High Priest of Penance, Domri 2nd ability can create big holes in your pop lines. The 1st ability being simply a way to reload the 2nd one.

I’m not a big fan of Domri but I can see why it could be good.

Comparing this article against the one you made after RtR release was over, I see you got to be a lot more cautious. Investing in RtR then was a big mistake (except for Sphinx revelation) and I still haven’t recovered from that, so I’m not planning on going deep into any GTC-card. Domri, to me, seems overhyped and I fear it will go where Vraska boldly went before… down the hill ! It’s not good in agressive decks cause it costs them their turn 3, and after that, if Domri hits a land twice it’s just disastrous. I don’t see decks that want to kill on turns 4 or 5 make room for this, and other decks just don’t play enough creatures to make it worthwile…

But time will tell if my predictions are worth more then the ink they’re written with :p.
