Cryptic Command

If Cryptic Command sees a reprint in MM2015, what do you think it's price will be? I need to pick up 2 for a deck, but I'm not sure if I should wait until MM2015. They would get a fair amount of play as my LGS is just starting Modern tournaments this week. Someone please convince me one way or the other. Thanks :D

We don't know if they are going to reprint so we can't possibly say. If they're reprinted as a rare they'll fall in price.

Short of a huge reprinting, like Thoughtseize in a fall set, a reprint in MM2015 isn't going to majorly impact the price. Before Modern Masters, Cryptic Command was a $30 card. It dipped to $25 before jumping up to $50-$60 where it is now.

I would just buy them now.

If you are going to be using them a lot, get them now. Better to have a working and fun deck that you can play now than waiting to maybe save a little bit of money later.

Also if you are afraid of losing value, buy the full art ones. They only cost a little more, and won't lose much value even if they are reprinted.

The difference between MM and MM2 being there is no end date on the print run as of yet. MM was a very short run which helped drive up desirability. If this run goes on longer I could see it dropping IF it gets reprinted.
