Holiday acquistions

 Its been a good couple weeks in magic card hording. First- a really good trade:

I coughed up my etched foil Verdant Catacombs and my extra Morden Masters edition of Aether Vial I no longer needed after getting my matching set of Iconic Masters. I am building out blue artifacts deck, aka 8-Cast. Why not... gives me something to shoot for. I also picked up a 5th Urza's Saga. I didn't set out to get it, but I realized a couple different decks I wanted to play used them. My D&T, the 8-Cast, and also a g/w/b Depths deck I have been admiring. I also think it s a really good card to invest in moving forward. 

Death's Shadow has never been on my radar, but they are cheap right now... and who knows. 

Second pick up:

When I got back into Legacy, D&T was the deck I liked for the toolbox approach. These lands were $90, went up to almost $120 until MM25 pushed them down. Thats when I got my Ports, the MM25 edition. I lost money on them, no question. The price kept falling after I got them... down to almost $10. They have gone back up, but nothing the original. And only because the Yorian D&T deck houses r/u decks. (I am currently super liking that deck)

I've always wanted to get these. They just look better, and feel better in my opinion. I am happy to have them. My mantra has always been- buy land and artifacts, trade for the rest. Its done me well so far. Not planning to change it.

I also got a Midnight Hunt bundle from my kids for Christmas. I didn't realize they put Set Boosters in them now. Makes it better and nicer in my opinion. I open pack one, BAM!

The Meathook Massacre foil. Know anyone who needs or wants one? 

Related notes- not a freaking chance I am going back to the weekly legacy until Maryland's covid numbers are sane again. (currently clocking in at over 20% positive results. Sane is under 5%.)
