Fear of the Crypt?

Standard forum

So with Tormod's Crypt being rumored to be reprinted in M15, should my deck revolving around Gift of Immortality have to fear the crypt being played? Better way of phrasing it is, ceteris paribus (all else being equal), how much graveyard interaction gets played in standard to make Tormod's Crypt even sideboard worthy? True there'll be a short time where Elixir of Immortality will be in the same pool as the crypt, but that will only last for a short time and is only played by the fewest of decks in a pinch. Thanks in advance for any help!

It's not a rumor, it's real. And yes, I'd be pretty afraid. If Pharika, God of Affliction can stop Junk Reanimator being a top tier deck in Block, you can bet that Tormod's Crypt will stop many decks which rely on their graveyard.
