Hstracker meta1/1/2023 ![]() Meanwhile, the IRL price of the card keeps trending up with online listings topping $40 this morning. The price of the card spiked at over $60 in the online market yesterday, and WotC emergency announced that they'd drastically increase the drop rate in chests for the next 2 weeks in an attempt to create a real supply. Because the promo standard cards released outside of packs don't have an easy way to make it on to MTGO other than through random rewards in treasure chests the supply of Nexus of Fate online is minimal. Yesterday evening I saw this tweet floating to the top of reddit. I was impressed and thought "hey, that looks fun, maybe I'll build that deck". But my opponent here certainly used it to good effect, taking *full* advantage of the card's speed to put me in a really bad spot. It looks exactly like what shitty promos usually look like. I'd passed over the card in the M19 spoiler because, well, "take an extra turn" effects generally need to be 5-mana to be even hypothetically standard playable. I was playing Arena the other day and got my ass kicked by a card I'd never seen cast before - Nexus of Fate. It's not a huge sticking point at any given time in standard there are ~10 cards from different sources which are legal and not available in boosters, but these cards are always developed for casual play: explicitly too weak to possibly effect the format. So WotC also does the "you can only get this card if you buy a box" thing and occasionally catch some flak for it as well. (note: the cost of a FoW box in USD is somewhere near $80 I think, for 360 cards? More expensive elsewhere though.) This "reward" is being panned by pretty much the entire community, in addition to the chance of getting a ruler in a box being lowered from 1 per box to 70% chance of a box having one. Spinning Witch is not found in booster packs of any set, but rather is essentially a "reward" for people who buy three boxes. ![]()
