Talk about rarity shifts! Poor Scion!

Has this ever happened before? To this degree, I mean.

The only other rarity shift that I know of that was that large was this card

Except it went from common to rare :p
 
The much-needed Remand reprint reveals itself! (Currently ~15 USD)

Unfortunately so does the first 'bulk mythic' in comet storm. (Not even one dollar.) Nothing worse than getting unlucky when you get lucky, especially in a 'premium' set or whatever.

I'm pissed about the Wildfire art. I want my dinosaur extinction art forever.

Is a dinosaur set really to much to ask for? When innistrad came out, it was during the horror popularity boom. Now we have had Pacific Rim, Godzilla, Jurassic World, Pixar's "the good dinosaur", and then there's the fact DINOSAURS ARE JUST COOL. So someone please explain why MAGICAL TUROK DINO-LAND HAS NOT COME?

Naya
 
Nah, I'm extremely concerned about them feeling like dinosaurs. But Naya doesn't feel like dinosaurs. It just feels like a giant beast world. Plus, I want all five colors fleshed out with dinos. Deathmist Raptor ain't a dinosaur creature type (doesn't exist yet), but it is close to what I want. Dinosaurs altered to fit a fantasy world. Now I know at the end of the day, the designs that would tie into dinosaurs best could also just be slapped on any beast, but the same could be said for most creatures.

Just think, U/W flyers could have pterosaurs...

G/R trampling fatties? Hello Mr. Rex.

R/B aggro raptors n shit...

G/W "butts matter" Brontos

U/b control with big endgame mosasaurs or some other terrifying things.

Not to mention giant bugs, possible tribal people, forms of dinotopian civilization, LEGENDARY DINOS, and all sorts of sweet stuff.

See, these are sweet. Except for the issue that they are bad cards. We need wizards to give dinosaurs the Avacyn treatment. Build a set around prehistoric tropes, fill it with dinos. Make good dinos. End of story.

I am confident they will eventually go there. Wasn't there a setting during the Great Designer Search... [searching]

Yep. Ethan Fleischer had a block that started in the prehistoric age. He's still with WotC, and one of his mechanics (evolve) already made it to print. I bet one of these days suddenly DINOSAURS!

I bet one of these days suddenly DINOSAURS!

Or maybe... sneaky dinosaurs like we have at the moment, then one day suddenly Lizard tribal is thrown into a set like Modern Masters, featuring all of the best psuedo-dinosaurs from Magic's history.

Also, why hasn't this one been posted yet?

Well, I didn't actually remember wings, but I was kinda considering it.

I am down for this UG proliferate junk

The whole spoiler is up: http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/card-image-gallery/modernmasters2015edition

This looks like an absolute blast to draft. Too bad there's a few really expensive rares and mythic that drive up the booster price to ridiculous heights.

What's this mess? An on-topic post? Can't you see we've already derailed onto a discussion about Jurassic Magic?

If anyone needs to show themselves to the door, it is you. Come back when you have something Mesozoic to contribute.
