Most Expensive Final Fantasy Bonus Sheet MTG Cards

Share

The spoiler season for the Final Fantasy MTG set has finally come to a close. This set features a boatload of iconic characters from the Final Fantasy franchise reimagined as MTG cards. In addition to new designs in the main set, you can also find skinned reprints of cards from throughout Magic’s history in the Through the Ages bonus sheet.

This collection of 64 cards, dubbed Through the Ages, should add some suspense to the pack-cracking experience. After all, a handful of bonus sheet cards are quite expensive. With this in mind, today, we’re going to highlight the most expensive bonus sheet cards this set has to offer.

Notably, for this list, we’ll be looking at the cheapest available printing of each card, not the Through the Ages variant specifically. This is due to presale prices currently being incredibly inflated, since the set is still a couple of weeks from release.

Now, without further ado, here are the most expensive Final Fantasy MTG bonus sheet cards.

5 | Nyxbloom Ancient: $33

Nyxbloom Ancient

Nyxbloom Ancient is a card that has Commander written all over it. It doesn’t have any built-in protection and doesn’t have any brutal enters-the-battlefield effect of any kind.

Instead, what it does is it gives you an absurd amount of mana to work with. It doesn’t just triple the mana you make with your Lands, as any of your mana rocks also tap for additional mana, too. As such, Nyxbloom Ancient makes it trivial to win games with mana-hungry spells like Genesis Wave or Finale of Devastation.

Prior to the release of the Final Fantasy MTG set, this mythic rare had only been printed in Theros Beyond Death and a Secret Lair product. Due to the limited printings and the card’s EDH applications, Nyxbloom Ancient commands a hefty price tag of $33 in its cheapest form, according to TCGplayer’s market price.

4 | Ranger-Captain of Eos: $35

Ranger-Captain of Eos

Ranger-Captain of Eos was originally printed in the first Modern Horizons set and has had a big impact on Modern and competitive Commander ever since.

This creature has a decent stat line, but it’s at its best in creature combo shells. Archetypes like Devoted Druid combo or Heliod, Sun-Crowned combo often make use of Ranger-Captain of Eos for a few reasons. First, Ranger-Captain can tutor up Walking Ballista, which serves as the win condition in both combo strategies.

Second, from there, you’re free to sacrifice Ranger-Captain of Eos to prevent your opponent from countering Walking Ballista or messing with your combo in any other way. This ability can also be used reactively versus opposing combo decks like Storm, hence why it’s a staple of cEDH.

Despite the fact that the best Modern combo shells for Ranger-Captain of Eos aren’t as popular as they used to be, this potent mythic rare still maintains a $35 price tag. The card has only been printed as part of Modern Horizons and The List in paper, so it’s well deserving of a reprint in this bonus sheet.

3 | Tymna, the Weaver: $43

Tymna the Weaver Final Fantasy

Tymna, the Weaver is is one of the format-defining pieces of cEDH. Its second ability is capable of generating lots of card advantage, and you don’t even need to attack with Tymna at all to do so. In a four-player environment, something as simple as attacking with Voice of Victory and sending the two tokens at different players can net you three extra cards with Tymna.

On top of that, thanks to the Partner mechanic, you get to pair Tymna with another Partner Commander of your choice. In cEDH Tymna and Kraum, Ludevic’s Opus are by far the most popular Commander duo. Kraum may be a bit on the expensive side. Nonetheless, opening yourself up to four colors worth of cards is a huge deal on its own.

Tymna currently sits at $43 in its cheapest form. One thing to note about Tymna compared to the other four cards on this list, though, is that Tymna appears as a rare in the Through the Ages bonus sheet, not a mythic.

There’s a good chance the rare bonus sheet cards are in higher supply. As more and more players open Final Fantasy MTG Play Boosters and Collector Boosters, Tymna could drop a lot in value compared to the mythics.

2 | Rhystic Study: $49

Rhystic Study

Rhystic Study is an infamous staple that has been known to bring a lot of frustration to Commander games.

The fact that it affects every spell any opponent plays is brutal. Either you delay each of your opponent’s game plans significantly, or you get to draw a ton of cards. Neither choice is appealing for opponents, so it’s no surprise that Rhystic Study was added to the Game Changers List, which features some of Commander’s strongest options.

Unlike many of the other cards on this list, Rhystic Study has been reprinted many times. The enchantment debuted way back in Prophecy and has been reprinted in multiple Jumpstart sets as well as the Enchanting Tales bonus sheet from Wilds of Eldraine. Yet, thanks to its high demand, Rhystic Study holds a reprint value of $49.

1 | Ancient Copper Dragon: $89

Dragon of Mount Gulg | Ancient Copper Dragon

Ancient Copper Dragon is an absurdly expensive Magic card that has been in desperate need of a reprint.

This six-mana Elder Dragon can completely shift an EDH game in your favor if you ever connect in combat. It’s hard to go wrong making a bunch of Treasures, regardless of the associated variance of leaving your fate to a die roll.

Dragons in general have only gotten more popular thanks to all the support from Tarkir: Dragonstorm. Ancient Copper Dragon was printed in Commander Legends: Battle for Baldur’s Gate, and this bonus sheet printing is the card’s first ever reprint.

Ancient Copper Dragon is undoubtedly the chase mythic of the bonus sheet. Valued at $89, Ancient Copper Dragon easily earns the title of most expensive Final Fantasy MTG bonus sheet card.
