Reason not to play standard #5884952.5: not wanting to pay $6.00 for a {Nightveil Spectre}...

Sounds more like a reason not to net deck. Im looking at a budget ($50-$200) deck that shuts off most the meta. It's based on my plagues deck but doesnt run jace or ashiok since I would have to borrow those to play that list. One of my team mates asked if we could build that devotion deck and I basically said no because that list is super over hyped, likely to be short lived, and stands to lose 50-75% value in the next couple months. I draw this conclusion from the predelver zombie list that had {geralf's messenger} and {gravecrawler} pushing $20 till people realized tokens and delver both beat it and delver beat most everything.

New standard, new prices. If I had to give advice to Magic players who play standard, it would be this: if you already have a deck that you like, don't trade for anymore cards for new standard decks. Whenever you pull a chase rare like {Thassa, God of the Sea}, trade it for {Deathrite Shaman}s. Just get as many as you can. I think it is one of the best investments if you do that.

Shhhhh, I'm trying to invest in snapasters currently, then deathrites at rotation :P people are actually trying to hang onto old snappy though. I imagine the same will be true for deathrite
