Ummm. Are you sure about this list? I mean your missing key cards. And graveyard eill be valuable after rotation because there is a card somewhat like unburial rites but a little better ( {Obzedat's Aid}) and your missing cards like rakdos return, and others.

I think most of the cards on the list will probably go down, especially {Sphinx's Revelation}.  Also, if someone could explain how {Advent of the Wurm} is "terrible," please do.  Is it the most amazing card ever?  Probably not, we play in a format that has a lot of bounce, so tokens are always going to be a bit weaker than actual creature cards, but there's pretty much no way to call the card terrible.  I guess, though, that everyone is entitled to their own opinion.  Yay, pre-release this weekend!
its not terrible. People just haven't realized it gives them a huge fat token they can populate yet

Lol  {Unburial Rites} is a million times better than  {Obzedat's Aid} name 1 situation where  {Obzedat's Aid} is better than  {Unburial Rites} and I will tell you how its not.

The only thing {Obzedat's Aid} is better then {Unburial Rites} at is that it gets a permenat from your graveyard. Which could be a plainswalker, but with that said everything else makes it worse then {Unburial Rites}. Rites is easier to splash into decks and is reusable.

That's why no body plays  {Rise from the Grave} it dosnt have flash back so you can't get a turn 3 reanimate

Plus the dream of  {Obzedat's Aid} on  {Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker} is farfetched because you either had him in play already and should have won or milled him and you probably milled  {Obzedat's Aid} as well

That's why they call it "Magical Christmas Land", because that's only where something like that can happen.

Yep

{Growing Ranks} + {Advent of the Wurm}
{Advent of the Wurm} + {Rootborn Defenses}
Unfortunately the two best mana dorks in standard at the momet, are rotating soon. I'd say if they weren't, Advent's price would be higher. I personally made a small investment, as I believe the price will rise, I'm thinking at least by half. I pre ordered 8 at 2.99 each. It's already at about 4.50, I think it could go to 6,7, even 8. Higher if Selesnya mid range is played "on camera" so to speak. Can't see it going any higher than 8, and that'll be for a week at the peak.
But can't complain about a 5/5 flash trampler for 4 anyway ya look at it.
