Anyone think  {Mantis Rider} Will ever go back up?

No. He is rare in a set that is the most opened set ever, will continued to be opened for as long as it is in print for its fetchlands, has fringe applications in modern, and isn't even doing much in standard because many Jeskai decks have gone the tokens route. I think his cap is $3, but because of how low he is right now it wouldn't be a horrible idea to grab some in case something puts Jeskai and Rider over the top.

I think each new first set in each block gains that title. RTR then Theros then Knans....

{ugin, the spirit dragon}

Clearly he's good, he's slowly rising

And if you play with him, it's just absurd how easy it is to ultimate

Has anybody else noticed that frf is roughly 5% more expensive at stores like Target?

I do know wizards raised the price this year a a bunch of things.  Prerelease jumped up $5.

Also 1 lgs is charging $1 for 3 packs.  Their box prices went up too from distributors.

Huh? Why would prices going up mean he's selling 3 packs for one dollar?

most likely he forgot the second digit

I'm assuming he's talking about what he pays as a dealer. But I could be wrong too.
