The Biggest Magic: The Gathering Crashers and Climbers This Week – August 25 – IGN

Magic: The Gathering Need for Speed

0

Toph means all nontoken artifacts are counted as lands, while also taking cards, making them creatures, and bringing them back when they die or are exiled. This means a buffet of lands to get rid of and haste to pass around. It’s up to $7 from around a dollar as a result.

Magic: The Gathering Ugin’s Nexus

0

Toph’s also seen Ugin’s Nexus get some attention, but as the folks at Wargamer pointed out, a potential Toph/Ugin’s Nexus combo doesn’t work. The card has been climbing in value to around $5 because players think that Ugin’s Nexus will give them a bunch of extra turns, but the card actually says ‘If a player would begin an extra turn, that player skips that turn instead.’ It’s still a cool card, but be mindful before you buy.

Magic: The Gathering Terra Eternal

0

Terra Eternal is our final Toph synergy this week, and it’s seen a price spike up to $7 from $1 thanks to its ability to make lands indestructible. With Toph’s ability to make artifacts into lands, that means they’re indestructible, too.

Magic: The Gathering Scrapheap

0

Scrapheap has been around since 1999 (the good ol’ days) and gives you life for sacrificing your artifacts or enchantments. It’s simple, but it pairs nicely with Ragost, Deft Gastronaut (remember him?) because he’s chomping through artifacts all day long. Scrapheap is up to almost $8 from around ninety cents.

Magic: The Gathering Repurposing Bay

0

Repurposing Bay can work nicely with it, too, with this Aetherdrift card powersliding up to a dollar or two in the last few days, having been around 50 cents just a short time ago. It’s seeing some use in Standard right now, hence the popularity.

This Week’s Crashers

Once one of the most sought-after cards of Edge of Eternities, Breeding Pool (Borderless) is a looker, and it’s seeing a drop. Not long ago, it was well above $100, but has dropped to around $35 now and could drop further.

Ouroboroid has also seen a drop, and it’s now around $20 having been upwards of $25 in recent weeks, while Tannuk, Steadfast Second has trailed off to around $7 from double that not long ago.

If you’ve been looking for The Endstone, this card draw engine is now close to hitting $5, while Terrasymbiosis is a dollar or so less, with both cards commanding around double those fees recently.
