This is a continuation on my series monitoring card prices.
Power is derived from the below table:
Pro tip: Promo cards can't be distinguished according to their border styles, but CP value is that of an Alpha card. Always double check a card before putting it on the market to see if it is not by chance a Promo card!
These prices are derived from lvl 1 cards, you might get better prices if you search for higher level cards!
Lowest Regular Foil card prices in the category:
| Price | Alpha/Promo | Beta/1st Reward | Dice/Untamed/2nd Reward | Chaos/3rd Reward |

| Rare | $2.84 | $0.94 | $0.5 | $0.12 |

And here is the overview of Power/Price, which means how much power you get for a dollar (the higher the number the better).

So what cards are the best buys now. We have a restructuration of the market, let's look into it:
1st place goes to Regular foil Common,Rare and Epic Chaos/3rd Reward cards
2nd place goes to Gold foil Epic Chaos/3rd Reward cards
3rd place goes to Gold foil Common 3rd Reward cards
The impact of the Chaos Legion cards on the Power/Price ration:
| Date | Best power/$ ratio |
|---|---|
| 9/24 | 86.4 Power/$ |
| 9/29 | 80 Power/$ |
| 10/7 | 58.8 Power/$ |
| 11/08 | 31.7 Power/$ |
| 12/30 | 90.9 Power/$ |
| 01/04 | 125.0 Power/$ |
| 01/10 | 128.2 Power/$ |
| 01/19 | 167.0 Power/$ |
| 01/25 | 167.0 Power/$ |
| 02/01 | 167.0 Power/$ |
Summary:
The prices keep falling on the market, but we found a sweet spot for investors, which is 2x burn value of cards. This can be clearly seen in the Power/$ chart as well as more and more card types get a halt at this price.
The end of season and the inflow of new cards made the market extremely good for cheap deals. A lot of common reward cards were sold for just below 7 DEC, which is just 2 power over their burn value. This was an easy way to convert DEC to Power (while your Resource Power let you). The drop of packs in chests might also bring down all card prices in the next days as well as well as pack prices.
I see this as a very bullish sign for buyers and a good strategy to get on new players with cheap cards. I hope the crypto market will support this as well.
The game is on, a new season started, this is the best time for investors. Good luck everyone with your investments and in game.
Happy Buying

Upvoted 👌 (Mana: 22/82) Liquid rewards.
True, I am buying cards of the market and that is my sweet spot at least 2x burn value of cards, we cannot never get a deal greater than that, especially on epics/legendaries, or gold foil cards.
Great breakdown and it deserves a !1UP
