So me and some of my buddy's at my lgs are going to buy a box and do a draft. So my question for all you lovely people is which set should we get a box from? We don't want to spend anymore than like 200 so nothing like alpha or anything silly. We also would like to possibly get some money cards out of it to so we can atleast get some money back from it so nothing like worldwake that only has one money card and its very rare to get. Any help would be awesome.
It really wasn't that hard to get jace from worldwake. I bought 3 boxes, a fat pack, and all 5 decks. Pulled 5 Jaces. One from each box and the other 2 were in the decks. So I'd go with worldwake. Besides there are a few other decent priced cards in WW. {Dragonmaster Outcast}, {Avenger of Zenikar}, {Abyssal Persecutor}, {Kalastria Highborn}, {Eye of Ugin}, {Admonition Angel}, and {Basilisk Collar}.
For the most part that's as good as gets price wise unless you go with a standard set for your draft.
You've seen WW boxes under $200 recently?
DARKSTEEL. Very high card prices for EDH.

Well not quite under 200, the owner of my lgs has one box of worldwake and he said he would sale it to us for $220.
Do 2 drafts? :o

Pfft!! Don't take that kind of retail abuse! Tell him you want it for 200 and that's it. Frankly if he still has it laying around, it's priced too high or nobody wants it! 200 bucks or bust! Damn the man!

Bad thing about WW is the huge gap in value between Jace and every other card. Haha.
This is very true, very glad I was in Afghanistan when it came out so I didn't buy any!
I loved onslaught. That set was fun and tons of money cards.I was stupid and sold my fetch lands a year to early.
