Host: James Chillcott

Card: Unnatural Growth FEA

Buy Price: $6-10

Sell Target: $20+

Timeline: 12 months

Host: James Chillcott

Card: Prosper, Tome-Bound EA

Buy Price: $12

Sell Target: $26

Timeline: 6+ months

Logic: #1 Commander. Best version of card. Low Inventory/steep ramp. TGC has a nice stash.

Host: James Chillcott

Card: Atraxa, Praetors' Voice DXM

Buy Price: $20

Sell Target: $35

Timeline: 0-6 months

Logic: #2 Commander. Borderless foils already high. Basics down to 40ish listings NM, and original printing was CMD foil. Unlikely reprint during 2022.

Host: Travis Allen

Card: Overgrown Tomb Expedition, BFZ

Buy Price: $150

Sell Target: $300

Timeline: 12+ months

Logic: 85k EDHREC, multif format play. Original is $250 and low supply. Will these become the 2nd most sought after version?

Host: Travis Allen

Card: Flooded Grove Expedition, BFZ

Buy Price: $25

Sell Target: $45

Timeline: 12+ months

Logic: 20k, only good version of these, will always be the first, best looking premium (and true originals are $25 so that's an option too)

Host: Travis Allen

Card: Misty Rainforest, OBF, MH2+

Buy Price: $45

Sell Target: $100

Timeline: 12+ months

Logic: Huge multi-format staple, arguably coolest version other than ZNR pack foils. Should be close to the floor.

Segment 3: Cards to Watch

Host: James Chillcott

Card: Rankle, Master of Pranks (Pack Foil)

Buy Price: $8

Sell Target: $20+

Timeline: 12 months

Logic: 8k EDHREC, unique mythic, unlikely to be a reprint priority, sells one/day on TCG

Host: James Chillcott

Card: Xorn (Showcase Foil)

Buy Price: $3

Sell Target: $12

Timeline: 6-12+ months

Logic: 3550 EDHREC/9% of red decks, treasure token synergy is a building theme

Host: James Chillcott

Card: Klauth, Unrivaled Ancient (Extended Art)

Buy Price: $20

Sell Target: $40

Timeline: 0-6 months

Logic: 2400 decks/14% of GR decks, mostly in Dragon decks, mythic EA from a summer set

Host: Travis Allen

Card: Undead Augur (Old Border Foil)

Buy Price: $1.50

Sell Target: $5

Timeline: 12+ months

Logic: 7.3k, MH1 Retro reprint in MH2 so supply surprisingly low (36 vendors, no double digit holders). Hang on a year or two, trade in for solid credit gains

Host: Travis Allen

Card: Blasphemous Act (Foil Extended Art)

Buy Price: $13

Sell Target: $30

Timeline: 6-12+ months

Logic: 82k decks, second most popular red card this week. CML foils kind of suck but people don't care
