Why is {Grove of the Burnwillows} worth so much? Tron? Or some strange deck I'm unfamiliar with?
Punishing Jund. Synergies with {punishing fire}.
Good deal. That's pretty neat!

Grove+Punishing Fire. WOW. I'm pretty sure that's combo is called "cheating".

Now, if I'm not mistake, how is that a good combo? It bounces it back to your habd, but ya still have to pay 1 mana to effectively deal 1 damage after they gain life back.
Repeatable removal is great.

Yea the repeatable removal thing. Basically it's hard for them to keep a threat out since you can just keep shocking it and letting them gain life. And eventually when you've removed all their threats you can slowly kill them with {punishing fire} + {grove of the burnwillows}.

I also may have overreacted just a tad. XP still cool synergy, regardless.

Hard to say at this point. The mythics last time went up, so the titans could stay the same even if it is a bigger print run.

New art possibly. New border at the very least. Might have zero effect or even go the dark confidant route.

No new art. We have seen pics of the actual card already.

How many cards do we actually see falling though? A few $5-8 uncommons will probably fall to around $2-4, and a few rares ({Scapeshift}, {Stoneforge Mystic}, {Splinter Twin}, etc.) might fall, but because of the limited print run, $10 MSRP, and the increase in interest for modern due to the fetchland reprint all point to most cards staying the same or very slightly falling if at all. The only card that I think will take a major hit is {Serum Visions}, but the print run size could prove me wrong.

Doubt the  {Stoneforge Mystic} Will drop its not modern  legal so I doubt they would reprint it in this set.

Damn, that's right.

Edit: fingers crossed for the banlist update!

{serum vision} may even get an upgrade to uncommon if reprinted
