# Ciphermaniac's Codebreaking #198/162 — Temporal Forces

## Summary

Ciphermaniac's Codebreaking is a Supporter built around a well-known player's deck-building mind, and in this era it served as a setup tool that let lists reach key cards with precision. At Ultra Rare it's a full-art Trainer, and Taira Akitsu's name on it adds a modest premium for artist collectors. At an $8.80 sold median, up 1% over 30 days on 213 copies traded, with only 12 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.18 out of Prismatic Evolutions; a CGC 10 brings $27, 3.0 times raw, but a 56% gem rate against $45 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
