The 001/001 One Ring is truly the chasest card of this collection, and in MTG overall.Which creatures did Tolkien invent and which were already in real-world legends? Not even extremely rare cards like Black Lotus are in this level, since there are a couple copies around the world. Quite frankly the card might be worth even 5-10 times more than this. People on the internet have already put a 2 million Euro bounty on this card, roughly 2,158 million dollars. The moment we were all waiting for! By now everyone and their mothers know that MTG will have a unique card, and that’s The One Ring serialized 001/001. These don’t have a price on TCGPlayer yet, but I believe that they’ll easily hit the 1,000$+ mark judging by other serialized cards WotC has released in past sets. 900 double serialized foil Human Sol Rings.700 double serialized foil Dwarven Sol Rings.300 double serialized foil Elven Sol Rings.Here are how many of each were made in total (the total count is proportional to the amount of Rings in LotR): The text on these ring cards is in Quenya, the language of the high elves. Clearly, The One Ring is carrying the value of the bundle promo, as you can see the values below:īased on the LotR lore, “3 rings given to the elven kings, 7 rings given to the dwarven kings, and 9 rings given to human kings,” WotC made special serialized Sol Ring cards. The Dead Marshes ( Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth): $38.61Įach bundle promo comes with the same four cards depicting a scene where Gollum “helps” Frodo to get rid of the One Ring once and for all.Glittering Caves of Aglarond ( Gemstone Caverns): $46.33.The Party Tree ( The Great Henge): $50.42.Paths of the Dead ( Cavern of Souls): $56.21.Here’s a small list of the most valuable Realms and Relics cards with their prices as listed on TCGPlayer: Those will fetch a pretty penny, with The Great Henge and Cavern of Souls already hitting over $50. These Realms and Relics can be found in collector boosters and as a box toppers in surge foil versions across all kinds of booster boxes. This set has a selection of 30 lands and artifacts that are all desired reprints, going from important lands like Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth, Karakas, and Cavern of Souls to staple artifacts like The Great Henge, Shadowspear, and Ensnaring Bridge. We can expect the value of showcase cards to be at least 30% more expensive than the normal version, and that’s being conservative. These special cards can appear in all boosters, and I’d expect these to be really valuable due to the popularity of EDH.įor a quick comparison, right now the showcase version of Gandalf the White is selling for over 30$, the foil showcase version is around 70$, and the normal version is listed at just shy of 20$. Showcase Ring Treatmentģ0 legendary characters are getting the showcase ring treatment in this set, and those range from heroes like Gandalf, Gimli, and Legolas to villains like Sauron, Saruman, and the Witch-king of Angmar. LTR is no exception, so let's go over the main ones from this set. Promos, Alternate Art, and MoreĮach MTG set nowadays has lots and lots of different card arts, alternate arts, and foil treatments. It’s also colorless and goes in any EDH deck. What’s more, you can use the black ability to draw cards and lose life in every color, and you’ll draw even more cards if you have proliferate or counter synergies. You get protection the turn you cast it, so you get a nice advantage even if you cast this card in the late game. The One Ring is going to be a new EDH staple. The One Ring is still that good, and you can get it in a normal, cheaper version if you want it. We’re talking about the normal version and not the unique, serialized 001/001. Quick note: The prices listed are based on TCGPlayer Market Price at the time of writing and will fluctuate over time. Let’s dive deep into Tolkien's world adapted to MTG’s cardboard pieces and see where the dollar bills lie! I’ll be focusing heavily on EDH playability, since EDH has become the most played MTG format and affects card prices a lot.Īnd if you haven’t heard, there’s a small (less than 0.0001%) chance of opening the only copy of a card in MTG’s existence, so we’ll surely talk about that. I’m covering all there is to know about Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth’s most expensive and must-have cards, including the Commander set. Today I’m focusing on the money aspect after all, MTG is an expensive hobby, and one of the ways to stay on it is to open and sell expensive cards. WotC has another hit on their hands, both in gameplay and financially. Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth is upon us, and I can’t wait to open those packs, be it draft, set, or collector boosters. Dawn of a New Age | Illustration by Anato Finnstark
