This week, Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty continues to influence the market. The new set is creating hype around several new Commanders and driving up prices of older supporting cards.

Weekly Winners
Shrines
Old Shrine cards are spiking in price due to a new Shrine Commander plus an additional cycle of Shrine from Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty. Sanctum of All spiked last week. This week, it’s the Champions of Kamigawa Shrines.
Honden of Seeing Winds went from $2.00 to about $8.00 this week. This is one of the strongest Shrines you can play. It lets you draw a card for each Shrine you control in your upkeep, which can help you find more Shrines!
Honden of Cleansing Fire is about $7.00 at the time of writing. That’s a big jump from its $2.00 mark before Neon Dynasty.
Honden of Life’s Web rose from $1.00 to $2.50 this week. This Shrine provides a solid defense of tokens that buy you time while you play more Shrines.
Honden of Night’s Reach doubled in price this week from $1.00 to $2.00. With enough Shrines on the battlefield, you can strip your opponents of all the card in their hand.
Honden of Infinite Rage went from $1.00 to $2.00 at the beginning of the week. But its price continued to rise. Now the red Honden is about $3.00.

Fervent Charge is pretty crazy inside an Isshin Commander deck. It’ll trigger twice when Isshin is on the battlefield, granting +4/+4 to all of your attacking creatures.
