Why are you collecting Storm Crow?

Updated haves / wants. Added Shardless Agents and Chain Lightnings to my tradelist.

Holy crap 3 mythics in one box??? I didn't think that was even possible.

Fixed. No, not interested in foil pact. Cards listed as 99 are also low priority for me meant mostly as filler to bigger trades.

Think of this realistically. Elspeth comes out on 6, Aetherling comes out on 7 unless you're POSITIVE your opponent has no removal, or even 8 if this is game 1 and your opponent hasn't had any targets yet to spend his removal on. Elspeth immediately drops 3 blockers to stabilize or wraths, Aetherling is 1 blocker to stabilize.  Elspeth can be killed only if the opponent has some form of evasion, and only if that creature has 3 power or less, and if it's exactly 3 then it still takes at least 2 turns. The only thing Aetherling can block with "evasion" that Elspeth's tokens cannot is a fattie with trample + haste together, so.. actually nothing that exists yet.

So killing her with creatures is actually very difficult unless something pops up in the meta that changes that fact. Stormbreath Dragon will sometimes work if it even sees play, but if Elspeth was making tokens and doesn't have a followup wrath in hand then taking 8+ damage with the Aetherling scenerio is about as bad. Hero's Demise and Dreadbore are the only things Aetherling truly has over Elspeth.

So, slightly harder to kill, more expensive creature.. or something much, much better at stabilizing against aggro decks. Not a hard choice for me.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have a comfy leather armchair to recline in and a wooden pipe to thoughtfully chew on.

She's incredibly powerful and is going to be a big player in Standard at the very least, not to mention casual appeal. She's the ideal top-end card for control decks. I don't understand how people keep calling her bad.  I can see her being a 2of at the very least in the best control decks to come, possibly 3of.

I'd be fine picking them up at $18 each. Starcity has them at $30, which is way too much, since when packs are cracked she will undoubtedly drop in price from there. The fact that she's unlikely to be a 4of anywhere is what will keep the price lower than instant 4of cards like Voice of Resurgence or JTMS, also that she's in what will be the most opened card pool of Theros.

$10? Don't get your hopes up.

EDIT: For the record, I expect her to settle around the $15-20 range. I'd be shocked to see her settle lower than that and equally shocked if she went above $25.

Anything on my tradelist is up for grabs!

Cool, post what you've got and I'll check it out!

Looking for specific cards for my cube.

I'd rather not buy unless you make an offer I couldn't refuse. Would like to stick to trades. Do note that cards listed as 99x are low priority, generally foil versions for EDH bling that I'm in no rush to acquire but is fine to throw in to balance out bigger trades.

I have no idea. I hope the shipping costs aren't insane

Thank you so much everyone for the offers so far! I understand how it can be a pain in the ass to scrounge up random junk from your boxes and I really do appreciate the time you took for me. I can't go through all of the offers right now but I'll try to respond to everyone in the next day or two.
