# Super Energy Removal #108/130 — Base Set 2

## Summary

Super Energy Removal was among the sharpest disruption tools in the Wizards era, and discarding your own energy to fire it made every use a real decision. As a Base Set 2 rare it reads as a competitive relic rather than a chase slot. The modelled guide sits at $3.13 with 15 copies traded in 30 days; a PSA 10 brings $88, 28 times raw, but a 30% gem rate against $85 of fees makes grading a losing trade, and the slabbed population is growing 3% a month, faster than 88% of tracked cards.
