Why is Azorius Signet by far the most expensive of the signets?

I noticed recently that Azorius Signet is sitting around $4-5 while all the others are complete bulk. Why is that?

I see a lot of other stores with bulk prices for it. That may just be weird TCG pricings being weird

I think it's because the other ones have so many printings, wherein Azorius was printed only twice, and one of the printings is part of a set that was super popular. The Archenemy one is worth more than twice the Dissention one.

It is also played in gifttron.

Gifttron plays Talisman of Progress over signet, since it can activate without the need for another land

Err, my statement should be, 'Wasn't super popular.' I must be tired.

nayrash5 I must be even more tired, because I actually read it as "wasn't super popular" to begin with, lol

All of these are equally as important reasons....even the illuminati remark.

Yeah, it's still played in UW Tron.

@Scouty I'm pretty sure that most lists play A-Sig because it lets tron lands tap for .

But the tron lands never need to tap for both at once. They tap for blue at the end of the opponent's turn, and tap for white during their turn.

Activating Colonnade requires both, and so does casting a white spell (or U Rites) with counter backup.

Fair enough. I actually wasn't aware that giftstron played colonnade, in all honesty

Ya the reason you play U/W Tron is for Celestial Colonnade and Sphinx's Revelation.

"The Azorius payed an exorbitant sum to ensure their signet was the most expensive."
