Finance Update w/ Saffron Olive |
|
This week Magic finance is once again all about Modern Horizons 3. Some of the biggest gainers are from the set itself including Ajani, Nacatl Pariah (up 56% to $23), Phlage, Titan of Fire's Fury (up 93% to $37), and Kozilek's Command (up 181% to $17). While the prices of many cards are dropping, overall the set actually gained value this week, with the big gainers outweighing the slow fallers. Long term prices should drop a bit more, so if you are waiting to get the cheapest possible price, give it a couple more weeks. But at this point most of the big price drops from presales are priced in, so if you need some cards, snagging singles is fine.
Meanwhile in Commander, Ashes of the Fallen jumped almost 100% this week to $17 thanks to Disa the Restless (extended). Turning all of the creatures in your graveyard into Lhurgoyfs allows every creature to trigger Disa the Restless (extended)'s ability, which is quite powerful. If you're trying to build Disa but don't want to spend $20 on a narrow card like Ashes of the Fallen, cards like Maskwood Nexus and the freshly reprinted Conspiracy do the same thing for a much cheaper price, although they do cost a bit more mana.
Finally, thanks to a combination of Modern and Commander, Eldrazi are still on the rise. Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre, All Is Dust, Kozilek, Butcher of Truth, and even Decimator of the Provinces all posted big gains this week. The lesson here seems to be that players really love Eldrazi. We've gotten two Eldrazi-focused Commander precons in the past year. Next time the theme pops up, make sure to snag your cards early, because prices are going to snowball.
