: D you have helped me profit with all your little tricks and with them I have been able too draft at no actual money expense for a long time, btw I would start trying too get lots of archdruids.
I also agree, since i have started reading I have gotten a lot better at managing my ticks i haven’t been able to draft for free but i have mad 10 ticks from trading so I am pretty happy about it. Thank you for the article, Good Job!
Nice pickup on the artifact lands in the common lot. I think you could have made out a little better on them by waiting for the next TNMo pauper night, however.
Excellent point about being willing to unload high-cost cards at little/no profit. I picked up Iona a few weeks ago from some bots @ 6.5 when many other bots were buying at the same price. They never moved at 7 in classifieds nor did the buy price budge, so I turned them into other cards.
States results have and articles have caused a ton of cards to move upwards 25-50%, and some few even more. Flores’s article about Pyromancering Archive Traps has pushed the Trap to 2.25! Cards related to Elves and Ramp (eldrazi and valakut) have showed the biggest gains thus far, as UW was already a big player pre-rotation. UB control put up some interesting results, it will be fun to see if anything comes of it.
Are you speculating on anything pre-rotation?
@masterofbrine @zac Thanks. Glad you like it.

I agree that I could have made more with the artifact lands but at the end it’s really important to understand that time is money; and in my case I have very little time to dedicate for the trading.
I am not really speculating on anything pre-rotation right now as it is hard enough to predict prices without major shifts in the standard environment. I guess I rather try to arbitrage a bit during the release week. Hope that goes well.
That was one heck of a deal with those commons you bought since you normally can only find junk commons for a ticket.
