As copies are relisted, vendors are incentivized to undercut their competitors' prices to sell their copies, which causes prices to fall. This is normal when a card is bought out. On the other hand, last week's hot Ragavan land - Shinka, the Bloodsoaked Keep - is trending back down, losing 16% this week to fall back under $40 after briefly peaking at $65. Ragavan, Nimble Pilferer has been one of the biggest influences of late, with Shizo, Death's Storehouse jumping 72% to $55 this week as a way to make sure the Monkey can keep attacking even through a board full of blockers. Meanwhile Modern is still adjusting to the presence of Modern Horizons 2 cards. Once the set officially releases in a week or two and people start cracking boxes, prices are going to drop and drop a lot. As such, rather than splurging on $42 copies of Tiamat or $20 Circle of Dreams Druid during presales, a bit of patience will save you a lot of money. For unlimited supply Standard sets, the expected value always drops down near or below the cost of a box (for example, the current EV of Strixhaven is $96 for a draft booster and $89 for a set booster), which means cards from Adventures in the Forgotten Realms need to lose roughly half of their value (on average) over the next month or so. The expected value calculation is up on the prices page (minus collector boosters which will be coming soon once we add in the Commander Precon cards that were just previewed) and the biggest takeaway is that the set is currently massively overpriced with the expected value of a draft booster box coming in at $208 and a set booster box at $305. This week our biggest finance new is the impending release of Adventures in the Forgotten Realms.
