Nimbus Maze Spike (Why)

Economics forum

Posted on June 23, 2016, 9:37 p.m. by Emarean

Does anyone know why Nimbus Maze Spiked from a 5 to 6 dollar card to a 24 to 25 Dollar card? Is this a buy out? Or is there some deck it is seeing play in?

I knew something wasn't right when it was at $7!

It hasn't quite joined it's FUT companions like Horizon Canopy or Grove of the Burnwillows at ~$80, but it's a start!

Atony1400 It's not likely to hit $80....it's not played in anything.

Bant Eldrazi in Modern playing it? It is a painless Adarkar Wastes.

Boza Nope, not even that. I've looked at every modern list for the last few months, and search for Maze. I think it could just be a buyout of an old card with a limited print. Some EDH decks play it.

Could it be that it's because it didn't get a reprint in eternal masters

Or maybe some guy felt like it. There's always that.

"Well I think I'm going to buy out Titan of Eternal Fire today!"

Things just happen.

Last week, it was Moat (not updated on the site yet, but this has doubled) and The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale, this time the random Nimbus Maze, the least played land of the cycle.

And the fact that is hardly played mean some guy hardcore speculated and was like "MINE!"

MrSEB1205 Thanks for the link. Again, there is literally ZERO reason to spec on this. It's terrible.
