In this article, we will look at some rare genesis cards and where their value is currently as well as where it could be in the future. There seems to be a great opportunity to invest in these cards both for use in the game as well as for future value growth. Some of these cards are down more than 80% from their all time highs. Why did I use rare cards you may ask? Well that is due to the fact that most of the rare cards are in the average players budget in my opinion while also offering a higher possibility of being in the meta in the future. Rarity is also something to think about here as most of the rare cards in genesis have about 10,000 on the market on token trove compared to over 40,000 for divine order rare cards.
1. Pyramid Warden (down 86%)
This card was up as high as $500 at one point early in 2022. It is now sitting at $75 and what could be a very nice value point. The card is one of a kind with six health frontline at two mana. Getting this card out early in an aggro style can be game over for your opponent as you deal heavy damage with glass cannons that cant be removed due to the frontline.
2. Master Tactician (down 80%)
The tactician is down 80% sitting at around $20 right now. This card was found in almost every war deck especially aggro war decks. The protected makes it hard to remove early in game and can be a great card to buff up. The flank ability is also great once you have board control as it allows you to finish games even when a guild enforcer or other frontline creature is played in the mid game. These abilities together are again unique to only this card at such a low mana.
3. Revenant Lynx (down 90%)
The beautiful card art and usability make this card a great value in my opinion. The lynx saw a lot of play with aggro nature decks due to the refresh two mana ability. This allowed you to get out a lynx and black jaguar on mana 3 with a pip. That is some big monsters to begin the game especially if you have board control at the time with a few wild hogs out already.
All of these cards have had their time in the meta already and will see time there again in my opinion. With the potential to improve your deck as well as 5-7x your money, I think these cards present a great opportunity for the future if you believe in the long term potential of this game.
