Finance: Price Shakes in PT Week

Via MTGGoldfish, here are the cards that went up in value this week:

These are all cards that saw play at the Pro Tour. Voice of Resurgence was identified before last weekend as the best card in the set, but the "verification" of dominating games on camera boosted it from 29 to 38 tix.

(Only two of top 8, Wescoe and Castellon, actually played GW and got to use Voice of Resurgence. GW might not make it in standard, so maybe the value is to do with eternal formats and Birthing Pod Voice in Modern.)

8 of the 10 winners on this list are from the RTR block. A couple of them (Maze's End and Jace Architect of Thought) are unlikely to matter much outside of block constructed.

Ral Zarek takes the same drop Vraska and Domri Rade took after the release hype. New Planeswalker turns out not to be powerful. The other losers are mostly cards rotating from standard after this summer, plus Sphinx's Revelation.

LSV's top 16 report claims Sphinx's Revelation wasn't overpowered in the PT format. There were 18 Sphinx's Revelation in the PT top 8, but they were sort of kept in check by Aetherling, Dispel, and Sin Collector. Probably Sphinx's Revelation (and Rakdos's Return) will hold value; the PT results just reflect a format without mana acceleration.
