When Venari Crystalsmith came out, I was hoping to get them through chests but soon figured it will take forever to get to the level I want to so I ended up getting some gold versions of it first and then work my way up for the regular foil.
Then I was very lucky/fortunate, because nowadays I am in the Bronze league, and I received this card one month ago (in the middle of September):
I received a Venari Crystalsmith (Rare Life Monster) as a daily quest reward (2021.09.14).
Its value is greatly decreased since then. As you can see in my above mentioned post, it was worth $3.50 USD on that day, but today (on 2021.10.26) it is worth only $1.60 USD.
All cards when they first come out, the price would have been skyrocketed so which is why I start to look at buying them a few weeks in cos there are more on the market ....
