I had the same feeling. The "extra" Cards I have could become useful once Survival Mode is back. Burning only a few Cards should be fine. The problem is low Level Abilities are not that powerful.

Same i needed all mine for land i just bouht them and they doubled lol so i ended up selling my land cards now since id rather get another runi than what i had it would make more of a impact and im guessing prices will come down or if they dont RUNI basically does what the land cards do for most plots and are less expensive now. The only thing is if you had cheap cards you bought and could burn then there worth it to mint and sell and that i thinhk is what many of the large players are doing makes total sense for them to burn excess cheap cards and sell them at a huge profit especially with dec low that will prob change to. Also hive is relatively low but there is a lot more supply now to but might be a pump after year end after tax loss harvesting hopefully we get a nice 5x pump like usual so i can offload hive to HBD or what ever gets me the largest gain then move that off into stables to earn a nice 10-15% rate used to fund SPL purchases without links to the market figure growing a gaming endowment for my own personal purchases and only using half the earnings will be a good way to buy over time and keep things growing and eventually it will purchase more and more with little risk.
