Cavern is seeing far less play than its 20 dollar price tag would suggest. Should definitely be at 10-15.

Maybe the price has stayed high because everybody knows it's a powerful but we're not sure if we need it right now. Maybe it's a couple dollars too high but in general I think it's a card that should be in that $18-20 range.

lucky for me, i got mine for MODO when no one played them and then they started going up when people realized that they should be playing them in decks with creatures.

LOL

"Shouldn't be $20. Only playable in decks with creatures."


I would have killed, literally ended someones life, to NOT have Arrogant Bloodlord riding a giant ant...

Good times:

but where DID the other fork come from?

Lord_Zed:   
I was at my friends house when this happened. He's married and his wife was an excellent baker. She had baked a homemade apple pie the night before.

I was hungry, and my friend convinced me to try those low carb monster drinks. Before this day, I had never triend energy drinks before.

Boy was I in for a treat.

When I tried that first monster, I really enjoyed the flavor, but the taste that it left in my mouth wasn't so good. What was my solution? Drink another!

before I could finish drinking that 2nd monster, I felt it already kicking in(these drinks were not very far apart, we're talking minutes here) my friend decided that it was a good idea to whip out that fresh pie his wife made the night before. I didn't know what to do, since I felt incredibly invigorated, and at the same time, freaked out by the rush I was feeling, but I was also hungry, and my friend have me an entire plate with a fork and said "help yourself." He extended his saucer to me, and I cut him a piece of the pie and handed it to him, then I looked at the pie, noticed that the pie was in an aluminum holder, and dumped the entire pie onto my plate and started eating it with 2 forks. I don't know where I found that other fork, it probably came from my friend. Anyhow, his wife wasn't happy, and I was already in magical christmas land. 2 days later, I was in my friends bed and I slept for 14 hours.

His wife outlawed my from having any of her baked goods for a while(which sucked because I could just show up at there house, steal some sweets, and leave) and said I couldn't have any energy drinks at her house, unless under close watch.

My friend, on the other hand, had to take me out to a steak dinner, because apparently I won a bet where I climbed a tree and didn't die.

The great land debate:

upfront, note this isn't me complaining or whining about some loss to cavern, quite the contrary.

cavern has really shifted the rock-paper-scissors of magic.  things that are beating certain things are things that should not be winning against those decks, as in, deck A is beating deck B, even though traditionally, B should nearly always beat A.  cavern is allowing things to happen that should not be allowed to happen.

it's sad, really.
