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.
Magic: The Gathering's Commander format includes a vast carpool dating back to 1993's Alpha set. As such, players have the opportunity to build a multitude of Commander decks focused on one or more strategies. Winning a game of Commander can be achieved through a handful of achievements including milling out your opponents' libraries, dropping their life points to zero, cards that win the game through a special ability, and even lethal commander damage. To succeed at one of the above win conditions, players often execute infinite combo loops using two or more synergistic cards. While many two-card combos such as Thassa's Oracle and Demonic Consultation or Dualcaster Mage and Twinflame are popular choices for deck inclusion, a number of three-card combos are also worth your consideration. My TCGplayer Infinite article titled 5 Budget Friendly Three-card MTG Combos for Commander explores several potent three-card combos for various Commander decks. Find out which three-card combo is right for you by reading the article.
Ravnica Remastered is Magic: The Gathering's first set release for 2024. Ravnica Remastered is a reprint set comprised of hundreds of cards from older Magic sets based on the plane of Ravnica. A few examples of past MTG Ravnica sets include Ravnica Allegiance, Guilds of Ravnica, Gatecrash, and Return to Ravnica. There are plenty of exciting cards for MTG players of all formats in Ravnica Remastered. For example, players can open in-demand cards like Karn, the Great Creator, Crypt Ghast, Utvara Hellkite, and Chord of Calling from Ravnica Remastered Draft and Collector Boosters. My TCGplayer Infinite article, The Best Steals and Deals from Ravnica Remastered, highlights several outstanding reprints from Ravnica Remastered available to purchase at budget friendly prices.
