so she is hovering clsoe to 40 dollars now do we predict that she will level at that price or go down?

It is certain to go down at some point. Referring back to how Chandra, Pyromaster was at one point a $45-50 card that saw modern and legacy play, and is now $5, I think we're pretty safe in that this one will follow a similar route.

That thread is meant to be discussing why there is demand for nissa, whereas this thread is speculation on where her price will be going in the future. I don't see a problem with having this one.

But if you read all the comments, that topic was discussed quite a bit.

So would you recommend I wait on buying one if it is sure to go down ThatBlueMage? and thank you for the replies!

Yep, there's no reason to buy into the hype.
Give it two weeks. If it doesn't make any major appearances in the SCG Opens, then it'll go down quite a bit. Unless you absolutely need your copies now, then buy some, but if you can wait, you should.

There is always one hyped-up card per set that goes for huge bucks for about one-to-three weeks, then loses at least half that value in no time. With Conspiracy, it was Dack Fayden , who started prerelease hype at $50 (TCGplayer.com) low and as of me typing this he is 16.50. I see Nissa, Worldwaker hitting about $15 as her bottom, maybe a bit lower. Garruk, Apex Predator will be a bit lower because he will really only see play in EDH/Commander format I believe.
My personal thoughts.

Nissa, Worldwaker is now 34 on TCG, so if anybody was planning on selling at the peak, get a move on haha I would recommend checking other sites first though.

If you want all your lands killed or sent back to your hand, Nissa is pretty awesome.

What you mean with all that efficient removal in M15... oh right....
People are kind of underestimating her ulti. She doesn't turn all your lands into beaters, only those you choose to search for and turn into elementals. You will still have land you played previously, land you can untap with Nissa to have efficient enough mana for anything. Plus if they're boardwiping to kill your lands, you don't need to worry about protecting Nissa since our opponent won't have mana to cast anything else. (unless they In Garruks Wake, then you lose Nissa anyway and your Opponent should be able to win if by some chance they got to that mana in the first place. Probably with their own Nissa.)

The price is somewhat hyped up currently since the set officially released today. We won't know what the price will do until after the first week and the first round of tournaments. If Nissa, Worldwaker does well in the upcoming SCG tournament then you could imagine the price will spike at least for some time, if it turns out she is a flop then the price will plummet. Standard card prices are always dependent on the flavor of the week so to speak, what's bad one week could be the hot item the week after and then go back to being worth nothing.
