chase rares in worldwake....sleepers

[dewe420]

So its been a few weeks so far since the worldwake release. What do you guys see as the best cards in the set.......and dont bother mentioning the 2 obvious ones, we know!

!. Basilisk Collar - lotsa hype on this. Compared to Jitte by some (lol)!!!
as has been pointed out, eats big stupid shroud blockers - aka wall of denial, inkwell, etc


2. Bestial Menace - seems efficient - 3 creatures, 5 mana...intereting

3. Amulet of vigor - this is gotta get broken in legacy, lol

4. Man lands - meh

5. Deaths shadow - my rational is this. Im a control player. I fully expect to be between 6 and 8 life before i stabalize and kill you. a 7/7 1 drop makes me feel kinda funny

6. Joraga - is it maindeck in green/white elves with ranger of eos? id he SB in eldrazi elves to aggro it up? dunno, just seems stupid powerful

7. Kalastria Highborn - assuming vampires gets over the limitations its always had that keep it from being tier 1, meh

8. Lodestone Golem - will see play in legacy and extended......sleeper?

9. Marshalls anthem - begs for me to make some stupid reanimator deck. Too slow for competitive play

10. Stoneforge mystic - seems to be seeing extended play with das jitte....

11. Wolfbriar elemetal - seems like you could kick the hell out of this in elves...played with master of the wild hunt it could be redickerous

12 Dragonmaster outcast - aka scute mob? 1 dollar card much?

13 Eye of ugin - time will tell now wont it...was kinda happy i got a foil one passed to me at the release

14. Omnath - holds a hefty price tag considering i have no idea where it goes to hold that value long

Comments, suggestions?

I gotta say it goes besides jace and persecutor

1) Collar
2) Manlands (except the rb one)
3) Death's shawdow (I adore this card, currently own 12 english, 3 japanese, and 4 chinese ones) Good at any life total less than 10, and beating lower than 7.
4) Lodestone (not a sleeper, look at the foil pricetag. Not sure how much legacy it will see but its definatly seems well recieved in vintage with workshop. Legacy decks trying to be created using it, viability unknown)
5)Joraga warcaller (Seriously another elfe lord? You can build a tribal elf deck composed with nothing but elf lords by now)
6) Omath- skeptic but played it and it works a little like figure in that it gets big fast. Not as efficient but has more interactions.
7) dragonmaster outcast- better than mob even with the extra land requirement, with mob you had a couple of turns before you needed a kill spell or die, with dragonmaster you have 1.

It seems like a lot of the sleepers have actually gone up. Basilisk and Stoneforge pretty much doubled/1.5'd in price in the last week or so. Basilisk is nearly hitting $5 each.

I hope Outcast and Comet stay down for awhile so I pick some up. Outcast is staying around 5 and Comet 2-2.50, from what I've seen.

We can also pray for Abyssal to come down a bit :)
