In reply to ExpletiveDelete. My thoughts as well. I don't ever trade these out.

In reply to desymond. So far at least. The crazy thing about Cruise is that I think it could cost 2 more mana and still be busted. To me, the only question is if we get to Worlds with it legal.

In reply to Phil Ulrich. If (when) it spikes, it's going to do so hard. My guess is $20. We don't typically see steady climbs with things like this. Things continue for a bit... then they hit a breaking point and double.

In reply to Wes. Interesting to note, SCG has conflux Path's at 19.99 as opposed to 11.99 for MMA.

In reply to Justin. Yeah but nobody plays cruise in standard. Dig is just a better card in that format.

Do you think that the banning of Treasure Cruise might reduce the number of Delver decks, reducing the potential upside on foil Vapor Snag?

In reply to thehordling. Keyword being actionable. The most useful articles are the ones that earn you tangible dollars. Too many articles make me feel like I'm back in ECON 104.

I’ll bite. Just bought six copies of PtE for just under $60, four conflux and two WPN. Which version do you guys think will be worth more long term? My bet’s on WPN because let’s face it, Rebecca Guay > Therese Nielson > everyone else.

In reply to Dave. I think they (WotC) made treasure cruise a common in standard for one major reason; when it is banned in eternal formats people will not get butt sore about buying a playset. Imagine the price if it was a rare or a mythic, the foils would be $200 :). Printed as a common, everyone gets to have a set, it does not break standard and we look back at a brilliant move by R&D at wizards for giving us "ancestral recall" in standard, without it breaking the meta.

All the players that aren’t playing blue are Talking about cruiser and ban, but it Will be a possibility to unban something, i don’t know what…probably deathrite shaman can manage a lot of ship or a BBE Who knows?! Or ban cruiser and unban Ponder or Preordian.
I’ll see a modern with less ban…

So where could you see the judge foil path ending up? I totally agree with your thoughts on it and think that the alternate art may also be a factor in how high it may go. My personal opinion is it could go as high as $15-$18…thoughts?
