Miss Fortune Overnumbered dropped $46.80 and Riftbound's losers outnumbered gainers
Only 16 of the 125 cards rose, and the median card lost 3.5%. A brand-new Radiance card posted the steepest percentage drop of the 12 big moves.
From October 23 to October 30, 109 of the 125 Riftbound cards worth $20 or more that trade often got cheaper. Sixteen got more expensive. The median card lost 3.5%, and 87% of the cards ended the week below where they started.
Twelve cards moved 10% or more: six fell and six rose. The largest move in dollars was a drop.
Miss Fortune lost $46.80
Miss Fortune, Bounty Hunter (Overnumbered) from Origins went from $156.84 to $110.04, a loss of 29.8%. On October 30 the cheapest copy for sale was $100.00, so sellers are already asking less than the market price.
Another Origins card, Teemo, Swift Scout (Overnumbered), slid from $137.29 to $108.87, down $28.42. Its cheapest listing was $82.85, a long way under the market price.
Akali fell 62.8% in launch week
The steepest percentage drop of the 12 big moves belongs to a card from the newest set. Akali, Brash (K/DA Special Art Card) from Radiance, which came out October 23, dropped from $58.26 to $21.68, a loss of $36.58. Launch prices are set before boxes are opened at scale, and they often have to adjust once supply shows up.
The cheapest listing on October 30 was $20.89, close to the new price. Three more cards fell between 21% and 25%: Ahri, Inquisitive to $46.00, Dazzling Aurora to $20.21, and Kayle, Justified (Champion) to $60.47.
Unleashed supplied four of the six gains
Baron Nashor rose 64.7%, from $26.46 to $43.58. The Alternate Art version gained 34.4%, to $50.59. Vex, Apathetic (Alternate Art) and Rengar, Trophy Hunter also rose, by 17.6% and 12.1%.
The largest gain in dollars came from Origins. Time Warp went from $44.14 to $63.37, up $19.23. An earlier piece on Time Warp foil from Origins covers its rise. The sixth gainer, Blade of the Exile from Radiance, climbed 38.5% to $38.39.
