Simian Spirit Guide price seems to be spiking (it's still at a decent price level compared to most other cards).
What do you think? Is this a temporary rise or may it stick at this new price? (it's been climbing quite steadily over the years according to the tcg price chart)

I think it's because Grishoalcannon is the only combo left in modern.

The_Dragonmaster No, it's because the Eldrazi decks played 4 and would pitch them on T1 for a T1 chalice on 1. It's pretty dumb, but that's the reason.

The_Dragonmaster Scapeshift, Knightfall, Storm, and Ascendancy are still very relevant combos. lol I swear, everyone is so mad Twin got banned, there are more combos!

I had someone propose a trade to me yesterday for his Simian Spirit Guide and he wanted my Canopy Vista and Thoughtseize.. After I questioned him he pointed out the price spike.. I lol'd and said thanks anyways. Simian Spirit Guide is a good card but it is a good $5 card and will head back down that way soon enough

Temporary rise because of pro tour hype, it's a common it'll eventually go down a bit and stay at the 3-5 dolar range.
