I thought UWR was called Patriot (to avoid the confusion with the old BUG Team America Legacy deck). Although I have been trying to convince my locals to call it British just to be stubborn.

It\’s a losing battle. People are still going to call it \”American\” and I\’m still going to imagine them barefoot with a straw hat and a piece of wheat stuck in their teeth and that\’s pretty much all there is to it.

On the upside, it does suggest his floor is around $2, so there isn’t much of a downside aside from lost opportunity.

Same, though I can see getting them under $5 working out too.

I think you have a point with three color decks, but the you don’t necessarily need 8 dual lands to make two colors work, especially when they come in tapped and we’re talking about fast decks. We also still have gates

This is why we don’t see a lot of Voice of Resurgence (compared to RTR block where it’s everywhere), Rakdos’s Return, Exava or Lyev Skyknight. This is why we see Esper, RBW and even Naya control (all three have access to 2 scrylands) but not American or Grixis (only 1 scryland). Without Temple of Triumph, people would probably have opted for mono-white instead of Boros aggro.

What this means is that the Selesnya, Golgari, Azorius, Rakdos and Izzet cards will become better when their respective scryland come out. There will definitely be new viable decks using these color combinations.
