Proper storage and buying from reputable sources can help maintain the value of your collection
Our mana rocks like Astral Cornucopia, Everflowing Chalice, Empowered Autogenerator, Mindsplice Apparatus all generate more mana as we proliferate, our storage lands like Dreadship Reef also become huge rituals, Vat of Rebirth and Lux Cannon get way more effective, we can speedrun through sagas like Phyrexian Scriptures and so much more
Not only is he expensive to play, but he's also expensive to buy
