Really cools deck idea. Just wanted to let you know that Archangel Avacyn  ^Flip is not legal for this deck. She has WR as her color identity. Though she starts off as white, her flipped form makes her a red creature. You can figure out a flip card's color identity by the dot color next to the creature type identity.

Very good point about the Atraxa deck. I believe the most expensive commander right now is Kess from the wizards deck, and the dragons deck is the only one to have two cards in Kindred Discovery and Ramos, Dragon Engine to reach over $10. So that would mean the vampires deck is really only desired because of Teferi's. Not sure if the idea of holding onto these decks will panout as I was hoping/planning.

So it sounds like any deck that would increase in price the most is the vampires deck secondary to Teferi's protection?

I was able to get 2 each of the vampire and dragons precon for C17 in hopes that they will increase in price at some point. I see that they are selling at $45-50 right now, but will they continue to rise? Vampires and dragons are very popular tribes in the magic community so I was thinking that could drive the price up at some point. However, after looking at the deck lists not many of the cards are holding a high price tag. The highest price I see right now is Teferi's Protection. So would that make the vampires deck the one to hold? Will it be similar to the C13 deck which had True-Name Nemesis ? Just trying to figure out if I made a bad investment and should just return them or I need to just stay pat and let it the next print cycle pass for doing anything? I also realize that none of these decks are as powerful as Atraxa so I am not expecting a huge price change (though it be nice!). Thanks for looking.

I am looking for x4 Gideon of the Trials and x3 Collective Brutality. Here is my binder to see if we can work anything out. Thanks for looking.

I do not know why I never thought of looking under Gideon tribal. I will definitely be doing that to get better deck ideas.

With the new legendary planeswalker rule coming out when Ixalan is released I have started to contemplate building a B/W Gideons deck. I was wondering what you all thought about this possibly becoming a thing? I was thinking B/W for the discard/removal of black with the addition of Path from White. The main concept I had about the deck would be to run Lingering Souls for tokens/blockers and then using the gideons to attack an opponent. The decks I have played against so far at my local shop are Bant Eldrazi, Affinity, Naya Burn, U/W control, Jund, Valakut, UR storm, Junk, and Griselbrand combo. I have seen Living end and Death's shadow played as well, but I have not had the honor of playing against them.

The basic concept I have is an article I found here on mtgGoldfish. Do you think the deck concept I am thinking about would work? I am still new to the modern format so I am not sure if I would be building a deck that would be able to stand up to the Tier 1 decks. I would not be running as many planeswalkers, but the removal would be the same concept. I just wanted to ask before possibly buying the cards I need to complete the deck. Any input is appreciated. Thanks

How much are the promos going for? Someone at my shop said $20, but TCG player has them at $9......if TCG is wrong I need to buy them like crazy when/if the come in stock!

I was lucky enough to get one from a random drawing. Pretty happy with it because I was trying to trade for a few of the regular versions to complete my playset for my modern deck!

Hey, I would be interested in the cards you had listed, but I am hesitant to trade them for the Ulamog or polluted delta. Especially since the Aura Shards is HP. Is there anything else that you would be interested in that would equal the value of Aura Shards,Umbral Mantle, Inundate, and Crystal Shard. How much are you valuing the shards at? I may be interested in the Thoughtseize for deal involving Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre. Just let me know. Thanks
