However, because of their distribution and the way the hobby perceived them at the time, these cards have long been considered XRCs
Compare that to Dragon Vault at 21 cards and its not hard to see why the number of cards available is growing quicker and quicker
(I should also mention that this doesn't include reprints, so fetch lands are counted as Zendikar cards, not Modern Horizons 2 cards, so they aren't skewing the data.) While Modern Horizons sets add a lot of interesting new cards to the Modern format, at this point, it's clear that they also add a lot of expensive cards into the Modern format, which in turn ends up increasing the cost of playing the format
I don't feel confident about other formats - but Gisela will certainly find a competitive home in Standard
So why cant it see play here
The sweet spot for serious collectors
