So with more powerful cards to come in reprints.  What do you guys think of a {wasteland} reprint?  I do not believe it is on the reserve list.  On one hand I know it will shake the hell out of modern on the other hand won't modern just become too much like Legacy at that point?

I just don't see it. Maybe in supplemental product. I don't think land destruction is a thing wizards wants anymore. Although it would give a boost to mono colored decks and take the greedy mana bases away.

Land Destruction still a thing, but it isn't as easy
{Demolish}
{Desecration Plague}
{Peak Eruption}
{Spiteful Blow}

Possible. Is not on Reserved List did to being Uncommon. Only Rares are on the list. That said, it's possible though highly unlikely.

For Modern they printed {Wasteland}

It's called {Tectonic Edge} and {Ghost Quarter} I'm pretty sure that's about as close as we will see ever for Modern

We know the alternatives.  Thank you Mr. Obvious 😜

Wasteland wouldn't turn modern into legacy. I think it would be good for the format, punish the stupid goodstuff decks a little bit.

I don't think it will be reprinted in a modern/standard legal set, most likely just another judge foil if they really want to. Price/supply isn't really a problem with it, so there probably is little need in wotc's mind.

They wouldn't double up on a judge foil. It already has a judge foil printing

No reserved list = anything is possible!

Most likely during a slump in sales

Lol :P but I mean that somebody from WotC said that these would be the closest we get for wasteland options

Well, slap me around and call me silly then. I stand corrected. Maybe they could then...
