Did  {Glimmervoid} Jump or was it always around $20?
it jumped
Why?
Reasons

Affinity win anything recently?
No wins, just a solid Aggro deck and several affinity pieces are spiking that are 3/4 of's. eg Ravager. Next big spike is {steel overseer} IMO

I cut the numbers down in my deck because it was really sub optimal. I haven't played Affinity for months, not since Delver was a thing. Might be better now but it had the "does nothing then dies" problem. I liked it better than {Signal Pest} though. Besides all this, not many people agree with my take on affinity anyways.

Overseer has always been good, bob can also "do nothing and die" but both share the thought that "I need to answer this or it will get out of hand." I like him as a 4-of but affinity is very flexible and it's a terrible card on its own, plenty of affinity cards are. 1 main deck welding jar can be helpful, however I don't expect affinity to put up any significant results with all these k commands running around. Prices will still increase because people have their opals, champions and citadels but need their ravagers, et al.

But you gotta drop mad mana into its activation....
Collected Company doesn't really care. You can hold up mana for CoCo if necessary, and if it doesn't end up being necessary you can sink all of that mana into Township. Mike probably drops for a similar amount of mana as a Township activation and then immediately eats a Path.

Wait so is {Arcbound Ravager} up?
Yes it is

MuggyWuggy

If it wasnt printed in mm2 or last year: it's gonna go up if its a staple

Buying a few {goblin rabblemaster}s would probably be a good idea.

The glimmervoid jump was partially due to the lantern control deck

Am I going to regret unloading three at $22 for {Jeskai Ascendancy} among other things?

22 doesn't seem so bad, especially since it's rotating soon. I feel like that's about the highest it will jump up to again.

But {Heskai Ascendancy} is 99 cents and I picked them up at $8 each. T_T
