Rusty is THE DUFF card of the Splinterlands canon - there is no more useless card than the Rusty Android, but for some reason someone's been on a buying spree and pushed the price up eight times overnight.

I know regular Rusties were selling for $0.02 a couple of days ago because I bought a couple having just written my Splinterlands challenge post for the week featuring Rusty- and I actually remember at the time thinkin '$0.02 cents, that's steep!'

Now the lowest listed single card is just under $0.16

I don't know whether the buyer is holding on to them or whether they've just burned them - Rusty has the highest burn rate of all the cards:

With almost 70% burned, that means he's well on the way to being as rare as rare card, so to speak!

My Gold Rusty is currently 'worth' almost $150

NB A maxed gold Alric water summoner will only set you back around $!60!

So I don't know if someone's just having a laff, or if burning has been REALLY lucrative, or whether someone knows something about how useful this card might be with the new LAND sale (it wouldn't surprise if suddenly certain cards become awesome 'workers') but that's a hell of an increase.

I might sell a couple of my regulars and one of my golds, this seems like an opportunity!

Oh, and err @slobberchops, remember those 100 Rusty Androids I accidentally sent you a couple of years ago, can I have them back now please?!?

Thanks to @abh12345 for alerting me to this! I've added you as a beneficiary!

If you don't yet play Splinterlands, why not give it a go?
