    I'd get this only for Rashmi. I need Rashmi. I really need Rashmi. @Brigby can you get the devs to give me a Rashmi? I want Rashmi.

    I'd only get it for Padeem. Masterpieces are meh. Have rest. I'm also accepting donations for Padeem.

    Yeah no kidding... not worth it to me to risk getting any of the other mythics (already have Padeem)

    Not sure even Rashmi is worth it for me.... I already have Waterveil combo in Kiora for green nodes. I have Padeem; I liked him for a while, then I went off him for Sigiled Starfish (Jace 2 can play him in with 1 single blue match, which is great), and then I got Baral.

    I wish I had the uno..mo..ta.. Euh.. Pink currency. Getting a masterpiece out of this set would be a bad deal!

    So I don't have any of these mythics.  Chrome Mox seems good, but not game winning.

    Is it worth 400 of my pink thingies for a chance at Padeem or Skysovereign?  or should i just get the two mythic packs?

    AKH is coming. Who'd waste their jewels on a KLD pack at this stage?

    It's possible that we won't get AKH Elite packs from the getgo, but do we any of us want to risk being down 2 mythics which the new set objectives turn up?

    But why? I've opened 3 of them and wish I'd opened none... 

    Finally got to 400 unobotainium, excitedly went to see what was in the new pack, and discovered I'll have to wait 2 weeks for the next one. Only need padeem or the masterpieces (my bad luck, the last several packs only had 1 mythic I already had). Could we maybe get older mythics in these packs though? We've been on KLD for AGES, a lot of us have significant numbers of these mythics.

    An additional idea, why not have a "Hall of Fame" of mythics that can be purchased for 600 jewels a piece. I know you like to rake us over the coals with prices, but I'd be willing to drop the exorbitant amount of 600 for any one of: Olivia, Ulrich, Pig, Startled Awake, Behold the Beyond, Day's Undoing, etc. We can vote as a community every 3 months on additions to the Hall of Fame.

    I'm not sure the Hall of Fame mythics would be a good idea.  i kinda don't like that Olivia is an auto-add to any black or red deck.  and if i had startled awake, i know it'd go in EVERY blue deck i had.  giving the option of buying any auto-add cards to players would just mean every deck runs them.  i think purchasing specific cards is okay, but it can't be these cards.  almost has to be 2nd tier mythics.  maybe ones that help achieve secondary objectives...

    edit: weird typo.  who in the world types secondary as 2ndary?  i do not know what i was thinking.  i apologize.

    Out of this list I only have Ulrich .. If I had the chance I'd also save my cristal for these cards..but I would not want them coming into sale. I am sure that it's better for me that no one can directly target these cards, including myself..having them for the price of facing them more frequently? No, thanks.

    I only have 2 of the mythics.  But once again there is no way in tinykitty tinykitty that I risk 400 jewels on a dupe.

    are these mythics worth it though?  only padeem or boomship looks good...  everything's cmc seems a little high to risk this gamble...

    Because I have Rishkars Expertise and I like making loops. Panharmonicon + Prism Array is nice, but I want Rashmi.

    This mythic pool is so bad I only wanted Skysovereign from it (and of course any masterpiece). Chances were so much against me so I decided to go for 2 Mythic packs instead (each is ~60% for a new card)

    Got 2 dupes anyway... 

    Makes me want to uninstall and stop worrying about nonsense like this in my life ever.

    ahahahahahahaha....ohh.....   i opted for the mythic packs instead of of masterpiece.  i got architect of the untamed anyways.  this has been the worst trade deal ever.

    +Dreadwaters.  bleh.  i guess at least i'm flushing out my missing mythics..

    I kina want the MOX. 
    Most of those mythics don't fit into my deck so I won't purchase.

    First try: Architect of the Untamed. Was a dupe, so Support gave me another chance.
    Second try: Skysovereign, Consul Flagship. I'm OK with that!
