How did  {Archangel of Thune} drop so much?

Makes me sad

How do you speculate this card will value after rotation
$15 tops.
Here's why:
3/4 should cost 4cmc
Flying, lifelink +1 (maybe +2)cmc
Counters ability +1 cmc (on a creature, +2 for an enchantment because of kill spells)
That brings us to 6cmc
-1 because she is very color specific ({W}{W})

There now you have an average creature. She should cost 5cmc. Since when is average ever worth more than $10? However the main thing that will likely hold her price up is one very important trait, she is an angel and players love angels.

The last factor is actual impact of game, she has no protection and no haste or flash, you can see her coming and plan accordingly. If we get some passive lifegain (ex:{ajani's mantra}) and no comparable bombs in theros she could hold high, but that would be a sad day if it came.

I guess you're right, maybe I should have sold mine when I could.
Talking about another card, why is {Kalonian Hydra} going to the same fate?
