Magic Online has a problem. A card value problem. In a recent Channel Fireball article, Florian Koch showed just how much card prices have fallen over the past few years: That's right.

Darksteel, the second set in Mirrodin block, is notorious for driving off more Magic players than any other set, even the Urza block.
