Guy 1 trades  {Stormbreath Dragon} and  {Elspeth, Sun's Champion}

For

Guy 2's 4 x  {Thundermaw Hellkite}

Who comes off better?
(I did this trade and in hindsight I'm trying to see if I did good or not)

Guy 2, unless he needs the playset for another format

I'd say guy 1. Storm breath is IMO better than thundermaw, and will only go up for the next 2 years.

Looking at monetary value, Guy 2. Stormbreath+Elspeth is $64 and 4 Thundermaws is only $52.

This probably didn't make sense. I thought this was post-trade. The person receiving the storm breath dragon got the better end IMO.

Are you guy 1 or guy 2?

Using straight up values you lost about $12 but if you value the cards you got higher (i.e. you'll actually use them) it was probably worth it.

$12 shortfall? I wouldn't worry about chump change, you got what you wanted for cards you're not interested in. I trade what I need, never look into long term investment and if I lose a couple of bucks so what. Enjoy the cards.

glad to hear what you do, but he asked who came out on top, in which case it is undebatably trader 2
