The Vault Skirge

I remember seeing a foil Squadron Hawk selling for $10 a piece at a standard tournament back before Stoneforge Mystic got banned and Caw-blade was the dominant deck in the format. When I was digging through my girlfriends cards last night, I came across a foil Vault Skirge and immediately thought it had potential to hold a similar value for Affinity decks in modern.

Currently, a foil Vault Skirge can be bought on Card Kingdom for only $.75. Its seeing play in standard with some Tempered Steel based decks. I have noticed the card is really strong in Modern Affinity builds, sometimes making a 10+ point life swing with Cranial Plating. While the card is only at a 75 cent value currently, I would bet money that it is going to go up.

Why do I think that? With the recent ban list, Affinity has become one of the strongest decks in the Modern format. Anyone who is playing it should also be playing Vault Skirge. People who like to pimp out their decks will want foils. While I dont expect to see it hit $10 the way Squadron Hawk did, I could see it hitting a few dollars in value.

I know this is not exactly relevant information, but it was on my mind so I felt like writing about it.
