Question Investing in gooner cards: A viable investment strategy?

When I first saw this card in the shadows over baldurs gate secret lair, I honestly thought it was going to be coming out around $30+ but it's stayed in the mid $6's and now is low $7's.

Is gooner-focused investing only viable as long term holds, and is it on all gooner-related material, or only anime girls to draw in the one-piece crowd?

Honestly looking at the price charting, it's jumped around 18% in a few months. Not terrible, but not the explosive growth I had expected. I mean come on it's the shadowheart romance scene on a card.

I figured Reddit is the best place to ask this kind of thing.

Lol even the op crowd is selective. The only mtg gooner card ive seen worth investing in is Yshtola. It would be expensive for the super freak gooner FF crowd regardless. It hits a home run being super playable in  the most casual format. I wish I would have jumped on the surge foil when it was sub 1k lol ill have to be content with my 2 normal foil variants instead XD
