Finance Update w/ Saffron Olive |
|
This week in the world of Magic finance, the biggest winner is a Fallout card in Lumbering Megasloth. At the beginning of the week the twelve-drop was under $1, today it will set you back closer to $10. The reason for the huge price spike was Legacy. Lumbering Megasloth's ability - costing one less for each counter among players and permanents - works really well with Dark Depths (borderless), which comes into play with enough counters to make the Sloth Mutant a two-mana 8/8 trampler. Unfortunately it's going to be difficult to figure out just how good Lumbering Megasloth is in Depths because Fallout isn't on Magic Online, which means we'll have to wait until more paper Legacy results slowly roll in to see if Lumbering Megasloth is a real Legacy playable card.
Meanwhile in Modern Goryo's Vengeance is on the rise, shooting up more than 150% this week to a massive $40. Since the banning of Violent Outburst, Goryo's Vengeance Reanimator has risen to the very top of the Modern meta. This new demand was enough to spike the price of Goryo's Vengeance despite an Ultimate Masters reprint a few years ago. A word of warning: before Ultimate Masters in 2019, Goryo's Vengeance was up near $50. After it was reprinted it dropped as low as $4. Expect this to happen again in the future once the black instant gets another reprinting. Add in the potential for a metagame shift away from the graveyard strategy and I'd be looking to sell my extra copies of Goryo's Vengeance now while prices are high.
Last but not least, The One Ring (bundle) is slowly climbing. The pack version gained 8% this week to just under $80 while the cheapest version - the bundle promo - is up to $62 after being under $40 in December. This might be a problem. As far as we know Wizards can sell Lord of the Rings cards for two years, and we're approaching a year after the set first released. As The One Ring (bundle) continues to prove itself to be one of the strongest cards printed in the last decade, it's hard to see the price dropping anytime soon barring a banning. Minus a banning, the price will likely continue to grow and it's not even clear that Wizards has a mechanism to fix this issue by reprinting the artifact, which is a scary place to be.
