It's surprising to realize we're already deep into the Final Fantasy set release, yet Edge of Eternities will arrive soon thanks to Magic: The Gathering's rapid release schedule.
Meanwhile, significant card price fluctuations continue, with many revolving around the community's newest favorite: Vivi Ornitier.
Climbers: The Vivi Ornitier Phenomenon
Vivi has captivated players since his debut, proving that great things come in small packages.
While currently settling near $50 (down from peaks), his popularity keeps driving up prices for synergistic cards.
Savor the Moment (+50% this month to $9.10 market price) enables devastating double turns when paired with Vivi.
