Value Cards: Saheeli, the Gifted Loyal Drake Treasure Nabber Varchild, Betrayer of Kjeldor Ancient Stone Idol Saheelis Directive Blasphemous Act Retrofitter Foundry Endless Atlas Unwinding Clock Blinkmoth Urn Forge of Heroes Great Furnace The deck has solid value (about $60 total), thanks mostly to Retrofitter Foundry ($17), for seeing play in eternal competitive formats, and Treasure Nabber ($11), for its role in a mana-rock-heavy format

This certainly wasnt the kind of thing that we wanted for our still-growing and fun-based format
