I am excited and booked a package for 1 EMA sealed and draft at GP Prague
I am not convinced that modern and legacy are as expensive as people make them out to be. Sure the initial investment is high. But maintenance is fairly low. Whereas for Standard you always have to
acquire the new goods and to be honest most ppl are not able to transition without losing money (or they are lying to themselves). Standard right now is fairly cheap as compared to last season with the top decks about 400-500 USD on mtggoldfish. There are good modern decks to be had for under 1000 USD (such as Merfolg, Tron,
Scapeshift or Affinity). The expensive decks are basically the ones playing
Tarmogoyf or expensive manabases. For legacy a lot of tier1 decks are available from 1300-2000 USD such as Death & Taxes, Eldrazi, Elves and Reanimator. The real expensive ones are the 3-4 color delver decks. But keep in mind, once you have acquired the fetches, duals etc. and also most of the other expensive cards that they will retain value (especially if on the reserved list). I basically converted everything to eternal formats nowadays and do not play standard anymore unless forced to (and given a deck). And if I need to buy newer cards they usually are not that expensive and even if so will retain value if played in modern/legacy (vintage can be discounted for that).
