Finance Update w/ Saffron Olive |
|
The biggest finance news of the week is Standard prices as players prepare for rotation and the new Standard starting in less than two weeks. The biggest winners this week were the Battle for Zendikar dual lands which were each up between 13 and 21 percent and are now sitting in the $4 to $5 range. This isn't really surprising as the best land cycle in Standard always spikes at rotation when the old best land cycle in Standard rotates. If you don't have your copies yet, you might as well get them now because it's possible that at least some heavily played members of the cycle increase even more over the next few weeks.
Players also appear to be excited for some of the Shadows over Innistrad tribes. Sidisi, Undead Vizier has quietly climbed from $1.30 to $3.00 over the past few week thanks to some strong Zombie synergies. Avaricious Dragon is up 13 percent on the week to $3.50 on madness hype and even Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit got in on the action jumping 9 percent to over $1 (she's a Spirit). Are these cards and archetypes good? We'll find out over the next few weeks, but they definitely have more potential in Shadows over Innistrad Standard than they do today.
Finally, there's a Banned and Restricted List Update coming out in about a week. This time people seem to be betting that Ancestral Vision will come off the banned list in Modern. While its price increased in the paper world a few weeks back, this week on Magic Online it jumped between 50 and 71 percent (depending on the printing) to nearly 11 tix. I'd sell into the hype. While I think Ancestral Vision will be unbanned eventually, I wouldn't be surprised if the upcoming announcement focused almost exclusively on Eldrazi. Even if it is unbanned, how much higher can it go than 11 tix on Magic Online and $18 in paper?
