Sarkhan Unbroken Foil trade?
Economics forum

So I bought my first box ever, and pulled a foil Sarkhan Unbroken in my second to last pack. I have a friend that has offered a set of Deathmist Raptor or some sort of trade with Ugin, the Spirit Dragon. I was just wondering everybody's opinion. Should I trade Sarkhan or keep him?
im with JexInfinite, get the ugin, it seems like the most staple-ish cards out of what you listed.

get the ugin, or keep it and play 5 colour Scion dragons in EDH, I preordered a foil Sarkhan for this exact use ;-)

Ugin! Ugin! Ugin! Ugin!

But really, get Ugin. He holds some pretty steady value as he sees play in Modern in Tron builds (Urza's Power Plant, Urza's Tower, Urza's Mine). New Sarkhan is just very hyped, which is good for you because it means you trade it for a sweet colorless planeswalker.

Definitely trade away. That said, the ugin trade is a poor one in terms of value.
The Deathmist playset is a trade up in value, and they will actually see a lot of play in standard.
I'd trade the deathmists.
Or an Ugin +1 deathmist.

So, just to update, a Narset Transcendent has been brought to the table...What's the opinion on her? Will she have any long term value?

TCG Prices: Narset Transcendent is $30. Sarkhan Unbroken foil is $35.
SCG prices: Narset Transcendent is $42. Sarkhan Unbroken foil is $55
Narset Transcendant most likely won't have any special long term value. There's no modern deck for her to fit in so she will likely only see standard play. It's probably the worst offer so far.
The Deathmist Raptors are your best bet (and a poor trade for him). If he is no longer willing to trade the Deathmist Raptors because they have gone up too much.
The most fair trade you can do is Narset + One Raptor, or Ugin + One Raptor.
I'd personally trade him for fetches.

I'd personally say to trade it now. It's worth $60 on SCG right now, and that will likely halve once people start opening a lot of Dragons of Tarkir. I personally would exchange it for the Deathmist Raptors if you need them for a deck, mainly since they won't be rotating out anytime soon.
