Gatecrash worth buying?

Run run run as fast as you can from Gatecrash. The allure of the Shocklands is not enough to make up for the playset of {Assemble the Legion} or {Rubblebelt Raiders}. There are so many junk rares in this set, that with the exception of the shocks and a few mythics - you could buy every card in the set for $100.

Listen to this man. Do some sample boosters of GTC with this app, see how often you pull a junk rare like the ones he mentioned, or one of the prerelease promos, or one of the Primordials cycle, or any of the other junk stuff. Dragon's Maze better be awesome, because the only cards I've been able to find uses for in Gatecrash are the charms and {Skullcrack}. Not including mythics because most of them are good in this set.

Here's why Avacyn:  {Avacyn, Angel of Hope} {Bonfire of the Damned} {Cavern of Souls} {Craterhoof Behemoth} {Entreat the Angels} {Gisela, Blade of Goldnight} {Griselbrand} {Restoration Angel} {Silverblade Paladin} {Sigarda, Host of Herons} {Vexing Devil} {Tamiyo, the Moon Sage} {Terminus} {Temporal Mastery}

Not to mention there are a bunch of other useful cards and  {Blood Artist} is a great uncommon. Just remember you can always trade away what you don't want:)

Of course u r right but after rotation those cards will have 30 percent of their value... Except of caverns that will have 50%... And take a look on cards in Inni... Snappy and Lilly are played towards all formats their value will be the same or bigger...;) and there is a lot of other cards of same or similar value as in Avacyn...;) of course it is only matter of point of view... Besides for example enemy lands that are colors of gtc are almost more expensive than shocklands....:D
