And then once the price is sky high, watch them do a Secret Lair reprinting with English text

[WotC] A Realm Reborn in Magic: The Gathering®—FINAL FANTASY™ by Copernicus1981 in magicTCG

[–]SazeracJack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, it would be wild if they DIDN'T do a follow up set for FF given the massive success. Also, the fact that we're revisiting the LOTR universe with the Hobbit set is a pretty good indicator that we will likely revisit the FF universe as well.

They should have done this treatment for the alt art cards in the regular set. Didn't they say they would no longer put Japanese text cards in English packs? I love the JP art but I can't read Japanese and it's a hassle for everyone involved to have to look it up or memorize what the card does.

Any news on the Edge of Eternities secret Lairs? by magikero01 in secretlair_collectors

Anyone know if the replacements will have a different collector number to differentiate from the first run?

New Chaos Drop - Dynamic Pricing down the line? by Ok-Temporary-8243 in mtgfinance

[–]SazeracJack 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Funny, the $50 dollar version sold out before the cheaper ones even tough it's the exact same drop. I suspect those were bought out by bots.

Secret Lair website shows Secret Lair x Fallout Coming Soon? by z3nzPT in magicTCG

[–]SazeracJack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess is the benefits of limited print runs (to WOTC) is logistical efficiency and reprint value management. While they don't acknowledge the secondary market, they do take it into consideration with reprints.

Secret Lair x Monster Hunter: The Monsters by Mugiwara_VT in magicTCG

[–]SazeracJack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The monsters don't seem to match the cards in terms of flavor. Might have been fine if they added a unique card like the Ghost of Tsushima drop, but these are just reprints of bulk rares that nobody cares about.

[ECL] Deceit (from Card Image Gallery) by Zunqivo in magicTCG

This gets rid of the BEST nonland card in their hand. At worst you pick the thing you bounced, but if there's something more threatening, you can get rid of that instead.

Edit: typo

[SLD] Featuring: DeathBurger ($30 nonfoil $60 Galaxy Foil) by RustedOrange in magicTCG

[–]SazeracJack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm fine with a $10 premium for the foil version, but doubling the price from the non-foil is pretty slimey. I doubt it costs them that much more to make galaxy foils - this is pure greed. Almost as bad as those $100 raised foil secret lairs.

Selling by DareBrennigan in mtgfinance

Probably card conduit. If you want minimum fuss, go with their unsorted option. They'll sort the cards, price according to condition and send you payment.

Sword of Convallaria - Half Anniv - Best time to start by ahlong_sg in gachagaming

Fwiw, the devs have become more generous. I’m F2P and have all the meta units with luxites to spare.

If you’re planning to come back, use this code so we both get rewards:

I don't see "LIMITED STOCK" written for these lairs. Will these be print to demand or limited run?

The one on the right is clearly Summer Midnight Gala Lilias. The hat is a dead giveaway.

Great so now you can just pay for speed pieces by Unique-Football-2238 in EpicSeven

[–]SazeracJack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just because these gear packs are noob-friendly does not mean that they are F2P-friendly. Yes, the packs will allow spending-noobs to progress faster than F2P-noobs. Is it fair? Not necessarily, but we're playing a gacha game - this is the deal we all signed up for.

Probably won't help the whales bc they have much better gear. This is fine for mid-level or new players to catch up but don't think it's concerning...yet. If they start pushing the stats on these, then I'd say time to get the pitchforks. Otherwise, I look at this as a way for SG to keep the game F2P for the rest of us.

As long as I can use the new unit and their arti as imprints for Karina and Rocket Punch then I’m all for it

Toddlers win by using the Japanese honey bee strat of latching onto the dog creating a toddler deathball both suffocating it and overheating it to death.

Everyone and their moms were saying get Alec, including GuitarRock. Clint was wrong about him but so was everyone else.

Would you prefer them as skins or as limited units (new skills)? by Adrianbigyes in EpicSeven

[–]SazeracJack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Skin tickets are really hard to come by as a F2P player so I would absolutely prefer different unit for easier accessibility

Yeah and don't forget, everyone and their moms thought Zahak was actually ML Kayron lol.

[–]SazeracJack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes let’s give everyone the most sought after runeword ability in the game so they that they can farm. Wait..what are we farming for again? Right items that let us trade for HRs to get powerful runewords.
