Magic: The Gathering players open booster packs with the intention of unveiling pricy Rares and Mythic Rares. In reality, the summation of value for cards found in a booster pack is often less than the retail price of it. Although, hope is not entirely lost for players pulling Rares and Mythic Rares worth less than $1. In several recent Standard sets, a handful of Commons and Uncommons command prices that exceed the majority of Rares from the same set.
In my recent article, 6 Crazy Valuable Standard-legal MTG Cards You Probably Own, I highlight six Commons and Uncommons worth over $2 each. Finding a copy of Gleeful Demolition or Slime Against Humanity in a booster pack is an excellent consolation prize. Read the article to learn what other pricy Commons and Uncommons you may have sitting in bulk boxes. Magic: The Gathering's Murders at Karlov Manor is a murder mystery-themed set that released in February 2024. Murders at Karlov Manor includes returning and new characters to the MTG universe and follows an investigation of multiple murders on the plane of Ravnica. Also, exciting new-to-MTG cards and reprints like Lightning Helix are found in the set.
TCGplayer Infinite's fascinating article, The Best Steals and Deals from Murders at Karlov Manor, dives into some of Murders at Karlov Manor's best singles bargain buys. This article is worth your time if you are aware of the Archdruid's Charm's versatility or No More Lies impact on Constructed formats, among other low-priced cards. Green is one of the main colors in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Green is known by players as being the most synergistic with color fixing, land ramp, gigantic creatures, and +1/+1 counters. Decks looking to win the game by attacking with large threats tend to rely on green. Also, players use green cards as to destroy artifacts and enchantments, draw cards, and even protect their battlefield from a board wipe.
My latest TCGplayer Infinite article, 5 More Green MTG Commander Cards You Should Be Playing, discusses five green cards worth playing in the 99 of a Commander deck. Recently released Standard sets like Murders at Karlov Manor and The Lost Caverns of Ixalan contain some outstanding green cards for Commander players to consider for deck inclusion. Check out the article if you enjoy Commander and want to improve the power level of your green decks. Magic: The Gathering's Commander format is immensely popular with players. In Commander, players build 100-card decks led by a legendary creature or planeswalker capable of being a commander. In addition, almost every card printed in MTG over the past 30 years can be added to a potential commander deck, making possible configurations nearly endless.
Over the lifespan of the Commander, certain cards have proven to be excellent in many decks. Players often look to add particular cards to decks identifying with their aligned color. For example, players tend to include Cultivate and Beast Within in Green Commander decks. However, some popular card choices have become more cost prohibitive for players to add to a deck or their collection. In my TCGplayer Infinite article, 6 MTG Commander Playable Cards in Need of Reprinting, I highlight several expensive Commander playable cards that players would be thrilled to see reprinted in 2024. Reprinting Chrome Mox or Gemstone Caverns should lower their average market prices since more supply would become available on the secondary market. For now, players can only hope that a few of the most sought-after MTG cards get reprinted this year. |
