Thrun is a Jace answer. Gatekeeper is not terribly relevant.

Tezz is the most powerful walker since Jace 2.0.

Inkmoth Nexus will see enormous play across several formats.

Blightsteel Colossus is playable off Tinker and Shape Anew, not hardcast.

Thanks for you insight, i didn’t consider Thrun because it’s legendary so on it’s own it won’t make that much of a difference i feel (and isn’t immune to having to sac a creature to malakir or so); i never would have named Blightsteel because of the 12 mana cost, but perhaps in an eldrazitype deck… allthough would really surprise me to see that one go above 5 tic after one month. Tezzeret will be worth something because it’s a pw but in my opinion not very playable (so low demand for it) in standard. I really like Glissa; also inkmoth will get some value i think (it’s allready in lots of standard decks).
I fear consecrated sphinx won’t be as high valued as i think, but when i first saw it i thought it might replace frost titan in some decks… stupid thoughts perhaps

It is hard to predict prices so early but if I would have to guess the most expensive cards will be
(in no particular order):

Green Sun’s Zenith
Thrun, the Last Troll
Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas
Inkmoth Nexus
Blightsteel Colossus
Glissa, the Traitor

Would like to know what you think will be the moneycards ? Normally i’m just plain wrong about those… for this set i’d say green zenith and consecrated sphinx….

Just off hand the cards I want to have 4 of are the creeping corrosion, green sun zenith, phyrexian hydra looks str8 broken to me on a cost to cast infect spell basis, thrun will be a nice sideboard for control matches versus my valukut, ill oboly add zenith to my vally ramp, might even work with uni green eldrazi to bring in some other situtanal casting options for some of the less popular 7-9 cost eldrazi critters. Darksteel plate looks well costed to me, knowledge pool/mirrorworks look possibly playable or formed into some addon to some archetype as yet undetermined, disapointed in the lands, they seem to have alot of ways to sweep weenie critters, so red and white/arti decks look to be hurt by this interation of standard meta, probably is enough decent infect options for a black green infect deck to compete to some degree in standard, like galvanath, and red sun zenith (targeted exile for red ftw), red green are my faves in general so ill leave my opinions primarily to those cheers

I can’t wait to see Karn next set. There is no way he is not going to be awesome.
