I've had an idea in my head for a while about a short series of articles designed to help readers get the most out of their card collection. Magic can be an expensive hobby if you let it, so now more than ever, it's important to get the most...

Just a quick note post-Regionals: One of my teammates played Hallowed Burial alongside Wrath of God, and said that the extra mana was absolutely worth it against Reveillark decks and Persist creatures. They're considered crap rares by just about everyone, so consider grabbing a set next time you're out...

As more and more cards are added to the Quiet Spec watchlist, I'll be reviewing the list to note any changes in price. So far, the only pricewise movement I've seen has been Dauntless Escort climbing to $6.00 on StarCityGames. I'm sticking with my prediction of $7-8 on him....

With many thanks to Bill Stark, I'm happy to report that I'll be posting a short mini-series this week about my testing for Regionals. Head on over to The Starkington Post right now and check it out!

If you're not reading the Top8Magic.com blog, featuring Magic luminaries Brian David-Marshall and Michael J. Flores, you ought to be. I often find new inspirations from their posts and podcasts, and I heartily recommend the site to my readers. Through their blog I learned about CardShark.com. You may have...

Dauntless Escort StarCityGames.com: $20/setEbay: $20/set This card is showing strength on Ebay, which is usually a good indicator of a card's overall demand. Its inclusion in the Eternal Siege Theme Deck will temper its price and likely prevent it from passing the 10 dollar mark. Eternal Siege Theme Decks...

Zealous Persecution Ebay: $2/setStarCityGames.com: $4/setMOTL: $1.50/set Real simple: This is the card that makes Black White Tokens as good as it is right now. Star City Games just sold out at $1.00. I think they'll re-up their supply and relist it at 2 bucks. Ebay usually lags behind SCG,...

Dauntless Escort Yes Virginia, ALL of them! They're ALL indestructable. This guy is like Forge-Tender for Wrath effects. He's really good, and the only reason he's not going bonkers in the price department is that he's in the Eternal Siege Intro Pack. Why is this interesting? Well, none of...

A few notes: Lord of Extinction has gone from $11 on StarCityGames.com up to $15. Early reports are that the card is far stronger than anyone realized, and its lack of evasion or Terminate protection is really just not important and is, in fact, the only thing keeping it...

Chameleon Colossus Ebay: $20-25/setStarCityGames: $32/setMOTL: ~$25/set Remember when this was a $15+ rare? What on earth happened? Single copies are selling for below 5 bucks on Ebay, and StarCityGames, who is usually very keen on their pricing, has it below 10. I'm not going to say it's a surefire...
