I think the overall price movements of KTK will be comparable with that of RTR. Like the shocklands, KTK fetchlands are currently high priced but will drop later. People cracking the packs for profit will eventually over-extract the cards. What happening along the cracking and selling is an overabundance of all other Mythics and rares. I expect the non-staple Mythics to drop like those from RTR. Not until the fetches rest at 4-5 tix a piece should we consider collecting the low cost Mythics.
The better Mythics dominating the meta don't drop as much as the weaker ones. But we must always remind ourselves: MTGO trading is a game of patient. I found every past standard staple had several buy-in points to chase throughout its course of two year Standard life. Reckless buying results in only huge losses.
We should rate a card's position in Standard meta by the mana/power/deck types. Wise players would have foreseen the rise of Goblin Rabblemaster and the fall of Eidolon of the Great Revel( I missed both cards, sad ). As KTK's multi color block, we logically believe the next block will be mono color or at least less multi-color. I think the best bets are mono color cards in KTK. The better Mythics are Wingmate Roc, Sarkhan the Dragonspeaker, Clever Impersonator and Ashcloud Phoenix. I think Sarkhan, Roc and Phoenix have higher potential of appearing in decks as 4 copies than Impersonator. For Hooded Hydra, See the Unwritten and Empty the Pits, I recommend collecting each of them 100 copies when cheap. They are conditional cards. Once the missing keys are found in the future standard, some of the cards may spike shoot right to the moon.
