Ledger Shredder will probably go up. It's already second most expensive on MTGO which is always far ahead of the paper meta. Ledger Shredder is insanely good in older formats: It's blue which is the strongest color and allows it to be pitched to Force of Will and Force of Negation. It has a low casting cost. It provides card selection and turns excess land draws into spells which is important in formats where decks don't want/need more than 4-5. It fills the graveyard which is important in many deck archetypes, especially when threats like Uro and Murktide Regent are so prevalent. It's a flying blocker that trades well or blocks favorably against many of the early game threats, especially after it's had a counter put on it, and can force the opponent to play around the possibility of you triggering it as a combat trick.
With Bootleggers stash it is far worse than you think if you combine it with the enchantment Stimulus Package you can turn those treasure tokens into 1/1 citizens and in a prerelease dual I made 11 1/1's in one turn.
the lands are the things most likely to hold their value or rise long term. the ikoria triomes have all risen in value since release, and i dont see these being different
Bootleggers stash I can see holding value for other formats just because it has every land has tap create a treasure and all it takes is another card that says untap tapped land and can get massive ridiculous amounts of treasure and mana .
I did have the option to grab some of these new cards but I decided on building a mono green elves deck. Modern elves are actually fairly affordable. Way more happy with that lol.
No idea on most of these, but I can only assume that the reason for Luxior being so high priced is due to the infinite mana generating feedbackloop with it and Devoted Druid. Devoted Druid is a 0/2 for 2 that can tap for green, but can then be untapped by putting a -1/-1 counter on it... however, Luxior gives a +1/+1 for EACH counter on the creature it's equiped too, effectivly making Devoted Druid able to untap for free and since there is no "once per turn" stipulation, it can just keep going.
Like you supposed, Raffine is trashing Commander/Brawl. It's basically Raffine and 2 black cards, a creature that when you discard you draw, and another where when you draw you gain 1 life and the opponent loses 1. Takes 4 mana to win, the deck is basically that, a shit ton of tutors and boardwipes. It's ridiculous.
Remember when double lands were not a thing and we all ( me) despised having double lands as a possibility..
Now triple
What’s next quad lands
Ledger shredder is the most shock i get, i bought it at 1$ during release and boom.
Wouldn't be surprised if leger shredder is the card people remember from this set 10-15 +years from now
I play full Ob set in Grixis control and a full of Ob in Rakdos Sac Control 😈💯
This set had some interesting stuff but yeah totally felt like it was made for commander.
Face breaker ia a value engine on commander where you can generate up to 3 treasures per combat
I got the phyrexian script urabrask. Can't read it but it looks cool

yea i saw it was seeing play in izzet phoenix. part of the price tag being high.
Ob is played in explorer. And is good. Except against blood in the snow
Face breaker is higher cause of edh along with scheming seer and bootleggers stash. Shredded is modern, cedh, and legacy
Ledger Shredder is played in Legacy Izzet Delver may go up
Luxior is played in modern. makes infinite mana with Devoted Druid on turn 3

Generally, if you can't figure out why a card is expensive, you can safely blame Commander.
I keep forgetting 60 card exists.

Its a kamigawa lore that the ruler is the emperor and empress is reserved for the ruling persons wife.

You would think since it's hard to draw a land in arena it would be a basic land.

More than half is definitely commander

i've seen Luxior only once in arena, and i kept killing the creature that was attached with it XD
Vivian is a modern or legacy piece
I've ran into a ton of Raffine decks the last couple of days. Not surprising to see that have some value.
Vivien is played in modern,commander and some fringe standard for “birthing pod lines”

You're not seeing those cards get played because the matchmaking is rigged. It depends on what deck you're playing.
