Hey mtg Modern players! So I am poised this summer to buy in-paper my homebrew Death and Taxes adaptation. I say "Death and Taxes", but it's really an Orzhov control meta-deck. Nonetheless, I am on the cusp of dropping $500+ on it and keeping it forever. It also seems like a really good time to buy: Thoughtseize, Spirit of the Labyrinth, Eidolon of Rhetoric, and Brimaz are all being printed still, plus MM2015 would hopefully be bringing down the price of Modern staples like Path to Exile and Dismember. My quandry is this: I just had the idea for a really sweet deck, but I don't think that all the cards it needs are in print. The new deck idea is a Temur Seismic Swans deck ft. Life from the Loam. The problem is that I don't think it can work without UR and GU manlands (which I desperately hope will be printed in Battle for Zendikar). Temur Seismic Swans ft. Loam would need Courser of Kruphix and Wrath of the Gods, and it would make sense to buy them now while they're in Standard, but I don't know if I want to add them to what I'm already spending on the Death and Taxes deck. Both Courser and Wrath are definitely eternal cards and worth the investment while they're still in print, but I don't know if I want to get them if I'm only interested in a potential deck and not a definitive one. Anyone have any advice?
