Did you know Edge of Eternities is Magic: The Gathering’s 106th expansion? While Universes Beyond: Final Fantasy undoubtedly put a lot more eyes on the long-running card game, Wizards of the Coast is taking us back to one of its own universes… sort of.
In case you missed it, Edge of Eternities is a sci-fi, space opera set that’s packed with cool cards, and since it just launched, we thought we’d take a look at the priciest cards in the set so you can keep an eye out when you’re cracking packs.
The Most Valuable Edge of Eternities Cards Right Now
That includes one card, Sothera, the Supervoid (Singularity Foil), that's already going for over $2000 on resale sites like TCGPlayer and eBay.
But first! It's worth noting that these prices are taken around launch day, so they’ll fluctuate considerably as more product floods the market. We’ll update this page in a few days’ time, but expect big swings either way.
With that said, let’s get into it. Here are the most valuable cards for MTG's latest expansion, Edge of Eternities (at least so far).
Starfield Vocalist (Showcase) – $114.43
Starfield Vocalist (Showcase) is our first entry, and offers a handy double trigger for ETB effects, while also being playable for its warp cost.
This Showcase version looks great, with plenty of color and personality.
Breeding Pool (Borderless – Galaxy Foil) – $142.83
There’s a big jump up for Breeding Pool (Borderless – Galaxy Foil), and this great-looking version was already featured in our list of the most popular cards from the set.
It taps for Blue or Green, but you’ll need to pay life or it’ll enter tapped.
Devastating Onslaught (Showcase – Fracture Foil) – $155
Devastating Onslaught (Showcase) has some slick, cockpit-perspective artwork, and can give you an overwhelming numerical advantage in the late game.
It’s only ten dollars or so more than Breeding Pool, at the time of writing.
The Dominion Bracelet (Showcase – Fracture Foil) – $165.24
Possibly my favorite artwork on this list, The Dominion Bracelet (Showcase – Fracture Foil) looks like an anime scene come to life.
It’s also a really fun card, letting you control a rival’s card, but with it being cheaper depending on how much more powerful that card is. It was pushing $200 during pre-release, but is settling closer to $160 right now.
The Endstone (Showcase – Fracture Foil) – $204.74
The most recent sale in pre-release for The Endstone (Showcase – Fracture Foil) was for $274.23, but it's drifting around $200 right now post release.
This powerful artifact not only gives you a whole host of card advantage, but it can keep you alive in the late game, or slice your life total in half in the early game.
Prices are changing fast on this one, so it's worth keeping an eye on.
Anticausal Vestige (Showcase – Fracture Foil) – $203.86
Anticausal Vestige (Showcase – Fracture Foil) is a big ol’ Eldrazi, and was just shy of $300 during pre-release sales, but similar to Endstone, has drifted closer to $200 post release day.
This Fracture Foil treatment looks great, and when it leaves the battlefield, you can pull something from your hand right onto the board.
Starfield Vocalist (Showcase – Fracture Foil) – $311.64
Functionally the same as the card that started this list, this Starfield Vocalist (Showcase – Fracture Foil) is even more colorful and even more expensive.
In fact, it’s the first of four cards on this list to exceed $300.
Icetill Explorer (Showcase – Fracture Foil) – $474.85
Can we crack $500, I hear you ask? Spoiler alert, yes, and then some, but for now, Icetill Explorer (Showcase – Fracture Foil) is around $475 market price right now and allows you to play lands from your graveyard AND lands on your turn.
This artwork is awesome, too, looking like a comic book drawing, and it’d fit perfectly in the World Shaper deck. Do I dare to buy this one myself?
Exalted Sunborn (Showcase – Fracture Foil) – $499.95
Another card with a volatile market value (for now), the most recent sale of Exalted Sunborn (Showcase – Fracture Foil) was five cents short of half a grand.
If you’ve been looking for the coolest-looking Angel Wizard in the universe, you’ve found it, with double tokens, flying, and lifelink. Just, be prepared to pay out big if you're looking to pick it standalone this week rather than chasing in boosters.
Sothera, the Supervoid (Singularity Foil) – $2399
Oh boy, this is the big one. This card is funny to me, not just because it’s drastically pricier than anything else in the set, but because in the pursuit of that gorgeous Singularity Foil, it doesn’t show you what the card does.
Sothera, the Supervoid (Singularity Foil), in case you’re wondering, exiles your opponents’ creatures when your creatures die, until a player has no creatures. When that happens, you sacrifice Sothera and can take control of a creature exiled in this way. Spicy.
Where to Buy MTG Edge of Eternities Sealed Boosters
Play Boosters have become the de facto way to open packs now, replacing Set Boosters and Draft Boosters. If you're on the hunt for rare cards, this is the way to go.
These packs are draftable for sealed play, and contain 15 cards each (although the last one in the pack is usually an advert, art card, or token). Cards 1 to 6 are commons, while card 7 is a common card that can be a reprint.
Quite surprisingly, Amazon is fairly low on stock for most Edge of Eternities boosters right now, but you can still find plenty at trusted sites like TCGPlayer who either have a better deal, or just stock in general.
