Value Analysis
The value here is driven by a "double-squeeze" from two different types of buyers. On one side, you have the Marnie collectors who will pay a massive premium to see her on a Special Illustration Rare. On the other, you have top-tier players who need this card for the "Grimmsnarl-Froslass" deck—a strategy that has been crushing slow setup decks at the highest level of play.When you have both "Master Set" collectors and tournament winners fighting over the same 1-in-291-pack pull, the price floor tends to stay rock solid.
