MTG Card Price Spikes By 545 Percent Due To Thunder Junction Infinite Combo

thegamer.com:

Magic: The Gathering's second-hand market can be pretty volatile at times, with outside factors sometimes playing a part in the prices of certain cards. For example, Karlach, Fury of Avernus saw a pretty significant price spike after the launch of Baldur's Gate 3 due to thirsty fans buying the card in droves. Prices can drop and spike all the time, especially when a newly released set manages to incorporate a previously worthless card into an infinite combo.

That's exactly what's happened over the past week with a card called Cerulean Wisps, which can be used to set up an infinite combo alongside newly released Thunder Junction Commander Stella Lee, Wildcard. According to TCG marketplace MTGGoldfish (thanks Wargamer), Cerulean Wisps' price has seen a 545 percent spike between April 12 and April 18, all thanks to the discovery of this new combo.

Before April 12, Cerulean Wisps was going for barely over a dollar ($1.10 to be precise), but now the card will set you back a not insignificant $7.10. It's also a spike that has occurred pretty recently, so there's every chance it could go up in value even more should more people catch on and find out about the infinite combo themselves.

Speaking of which, if you want to know how to utilize Cerulean Wisps and Stella Lee, Wildcard to get that infinite combo rolling yourself, then we've got you covered. For starters, you'll need to make sure you've cast at least two spells before you whip out Cerulean Wisps, then cast it while targeting Stella Lee. After that, you can then tap Stella Lee to copy Cerulean Wisps, which you can also use to also target Stella Lee.

The copied version of Cerulean Wisps then resolves, untapping Stella Lee and drawing you a card. You can then tap Stella Lee once again to copy the original Cerulean Wisps since it hasn't resolved yet, and repeat all the steps as many times as you want. With this combo, you can potentially draw your entire deck in a single turn, which should give you a good idea
