Well the good news is….it likely won’t be reprinted anytime soon…the bad news is the demand is now limited to EDH players who want to pimp their decks…I will say that while the regular price is trending downward…it really didn’t plummet (like say Orzhov Pontiff). Given the foil average price is still $24, I don’t think I’d take a 20% reduction just because.

I’m still a fan of Chord, however, in pre-banning Pod decks players ran 1-2 Chords (if any). With Birthing Pod banned, I think those decks will just drop the 1 of’s and likely become Junk Midrange. Chord’s place in modern is heavily dictated on whether there is a viable creature “combo” strategy (with a heavy green base) or if there is a creature that’s powerful enough that you just want to hit it over and over (like Siege Rhino in standard).

It’s true. Without Pod for all your tutor needs, I think Chord has more of a place, not less (many Pod decks eschewed it altogether). Plus it’s at an all-time low.

Chosler seems a bit more optimistic about Chord of Calling in his article.
