Modern Horizons 3 is doing Modern Horizons things and turning the meta upside down. At the current moment, Nadu is dominating everything, which was what everyone assumed was happening while Modo's decklist reporting was down.
Now that the decklists are revealed now, we can actually see that Nadu, while still powerful, is not alone.
Once Nadu gets the ban hammer, the best decks will be Jeskai Control, Boros Energy, Esper Reanimator, and Eldrazi. Which leads me to my speculations:
• Ocelot Pride is currently $20 and sees play in Boros Energy decks to increase aggro. I speculate this will go up to 25-30.
• Ugin's Labrinth is currently $30, and is a mandatory 4 of in literally every deck that plays colorless, and Affinity. I predict it will drop to $25, then people will realize its broken and gradually increase to 35-40.
• Phlage sees play in a lot of decks and is currently at $31. It briefly spiked to $40, but went down after people realized Nadu blew up Amsterdam. Once Nadu is out of the way, this will rapidly go up to about $50.
• Tamiyo is currently $21 and will likely go down just a little. She's good, but none of the top decks actually play her. The only deck that uses her is Izzet Wizards. She will likely go down and sit at about $16.
• Ajani sees play in multiple decks, especially alongside Ocelot Pride. He is currently $20, but once Nadu is gone, will likely go to $25.
• Ripples of Death is currently about $1.50. This card doesn't see play anywhere, but I've been playtesting it in reanimator and it is broken. This card could easily spike up to $8.
• The ally fetchlands are all sub $10, so its kind of a no brainer to buy as many as you can wince they will obviously go back up in 4 years, like the enemy fetches in MH2.
• Devourer of Destiny and Kozilek's Command see play alongside Ugin's Labrinth and are $1 and $5 respectively. Devourer will settle at $1 and just chill. If Eldrazi becomes broken, it will become $5ish. Kozilek's Command sees a bit less play, so it will likely either hold its value, or go down.
• Ral is currently $9, and should will either hold its value, or go down, since Storm is, unsurprisingly, over-hyped.
• All the Eldrazi titans in MH3 will go down. They don't see that much play in Modern, and are likely just Commander all-stars. Ulamog sees a some play in Creativity because of his silly rules interaction that causes him to enter with 10 1/ 1 counters. Emrakul sees limited play in Tron decks that also run cookbook solely to play her. There is also a Through the Breach deck that plays Ulamog. All in all, Ulamog will probably hold his value at $40 because of Commander, Emrakul will slowly go down and settle at $10, and Kozilek will continue to go down and be a bulk mythic.
I will revisit this post in 6 months.
What do you think of Sorin? I keep waiting for his price to drop but the price appears to have stabilized at $9
