Trade aquired

I traded my foil Mana Drain for the cards displayed.

Would I liked to have gotten more? Oh sure, who wouldn't... but over all, I think I still won out. I am officially going after a play set of Force of Wills. I have one here, I have a second lined up with another trade. I have a third on the hook, though nothing is certain. (likely to be part of the Scalding Tarn from the photo)


I realize that getting any dual lands at this point is a pipe dream. Completely. Underground Seas are now clocking at over $400 per.

I think the USPS has it out for me. The recent package that disappeared was a bugger. Then this week another thing happened.
I ordered over 50 foil Modern Masters 17 from a vendor on TCG. Super cheap at less than $4. The vendor gave me a tracking number, and I plugged it in. Nothing, never entered the USPS system. I waited, knowing things happen. Still nothing after a week. I write, they say they sent it...
Then yesterday I found out that the USPS returned the package to the vendor with most of the mailing label ripped off, and a couple cards damaged. Seriously, I cannot make this stuff up.

They re-shipped the package, minus the two damaged cards. I feel bad for the vendor, he will likely have spent twice the cost of the actual cards trying to get them to me.

Gonna try to draft Unstable this Friday. I honestly have no clue how this will go, I am just mostly hoping to find a foil land.  :)

The land is where the value is at in the set, and I will attempt to win an extra pack or two in order to acquire more. If the store drafts it again the following week, I will try it again... but I vow no more Ixalan drafts while it is a stand alone set. Maybe when the next set comes out.

If you like to up your game for Legacy, I don't know how I missed it- but there is a podcast devoted to it: Leaving a Legacy.
They are something like 163 episodes in! How on earth has this gone under my radar?
