Amelia and Boot to the Head are also trading crazy high right now...Amelia is especially huge.

Enemy is the *generic* money card - but how many Generic money cards have there been in the last few sets...? System Failure and NTZ were about it for Avengers. Secret Origins and maybe Crisis fo JLA...and the other big rares like Straight to the Grave are all team-stamped.

Every set has big cards that are team-stamped...for this set, as usual, it will take a little while to sort out which decks will smash the metagame - the set's not even LEGAL yet ferchrissakes! - and when those decks start coming out, certain cards will rise...

don't bash the art too harshly, thats one of the hardest parts of design to control.

also, as previously stated, its highly subjective.

Where are the monkies in space ships?
Where are the terrible characters being used as blunt objects?

MXM really is terrible compared to JLA.

well, i wasn't referring to the creativity in which the art is written, i was leaning more toward the creativity in which the art is rendered.

but yes, where are the monkeys?

Don't look at me on that one - there WEREN'T any monkeys in the set. Get Marvel to put a monkey on the X-Men and next time the reqs will have more monkeys =)

Dont worry metagamer.. im with u LoL... In my opinion o preferd MSM, DSM, MMK more than MXM...

i think MXM is akin to DGL. the set is synergistic in it's self, but try to put the cards into an older deck and you fail(with a couple x-ceptions-Dr. Light and Sinestro). Also, the rares are truly crappy in this set, almost as bad as the MAV rares(how many do YOU play in Avengers or SQS Rush?) Does every team need rare 8 drops? NO. So why do they make them? Because they fill up one of the rare slots for the team, without adding anything to the team play wise. bugger this set.

madking2- I kinda agree with you but UDE addressed this a long time ago, they make 8 drops rares so its harder for them to show up in sealed play where you almost never go to turn 8.

u have ur opinions i have mine
but don't get so serious about this
its just a card game
unless this is like ur life or something
then you could get serious

Isn't that how all cards get priced high? :)

You wrote me a poem!

Nah, I'm just having a discussion with you man. Saying Enemy of my Enemy is the only good rare in this set is pretty... narrow minded.

VS FOR LIFE!

I dont mind opinions and some of your points are valid

execpt this one

This set is far too easy to play sealed...At my pre-release a guy who had been playing a month took first in the second flight...these decks build themselves...people I stomp all the time had strong builds...Same thing at last weeks PCQ...unless my skills have diminished...but I doubt that...

I havent drafted it yet, so I cant argue that...

Does APE not count?

Nope. Ape isn't a monkey, he just acts like one sometimes =)

Ape is like Metamorpho but with the brains of Zero from Beetle Bailey;)

What I don't like about MXM is that they have pretty few non-team stamped plot twists that are good, I didn't get too many usable cards for my older decks... Most of the non-team stamped are trait stamped...
