Hi all,

Introduction

Another post in this series. Thank you for your support in the previous posts 😊

This series intends to determine if there are other aspects of cards that may contribute to increasing its value. Based on your feedback I can focus on more/other things – so feel free to tell me where you want me to go into further detail.
I include some analysis on where the cards fit in terms of strategy and a market analysis of the price of the card in previous months. Feel free to suggest what more do you want me to look into.
In this edition I will be looking at the Highland Archer.

Card stats

Strategy

I will be focusing my analysis on the usefulness of this card in lower leagues (i.e. bronze to gold).
This card’s main advantages are its low mana cost (3), being ranged and from the neutral splinter. I would say this card is currently overshadowed by others in the game. Although it costs low mana, there are currently other even less expensive options in terms of mana cost doing the same at lower levels, such as the Xenith Archer. Unless you are going for a collection approach to the game, I would say this is currently a skippable card for bronze-gold leagues.

Market Analysis

A skippable card, which currently costs about 0.15$.
Let’s look at the last 6 months.

Looking at the graphs, the following can be concluded:

• in regular foil, a downward trend can be observed, and card is currently priced at 0.15$.
• in gold foil, the card is also on a downward trend. A long-standing resistance can be seen at around 6$ which is about be tested in the following weeks

Please let me know in the comments if there is any further information you would like me to include in future analysis.
Thank you for reading this post.
Stay safe!
