The new expansion for “Magic: The Gathering” featured a variety of new archetypes and spells that are still undoubtedly some of the best cards out there. ..
Rise of the Duelist featured some of the most expensive and sought-after cards in the game.
Naturally, this made collecting a few choice picks on this list pretty difficult and costly. ..
The best way to track down the best card to track down is by looking below and seeing what grabs your attention.
10. D.D Crow
Many people enjoy playing D.D Crow, which is still a popular card when it was first released.
D.D. Crow can be used to discard a card from your opponent’s graveyard and banish it.
This card is amazing because almost every deck out there uses effects that involve cards in the graveyard.
Eldlich the Golden Lord is infamous for his constant return to the graveyard and destroying cards on your field.
With D.D Crow, you can easily take care of that problem by just banningishing Edlich.
9. Ice Dragon’s Prison
Ice Dragon’s Prison can help turn the tide of a game, since it lets you steal and banish a monster.
Activating Ice Dragon’s Prison allows you to target a monster in your opponent’s graveyard and special summon it with its effects negated. Then you can banish a monster your opponent controls, as well as a monster you control.
The trade is essentially a one-for-one swap, with the player receiving a free monster in return. ..
The only problem is that both monsters need to have the same type.
Zombie World is a card that allows players to make all their cards of the same type. DNA Surgery is a card that allows players to make all their cards of the same type, but with different effects.
8. Chaos Ruler, the Chaotic Magical Dragon
This is a statement about any monster with an effect that easily brings itself back from the graveyard, which is especially annoying to deal with because it can easily bring itself back to the battlefield again and again.
Chaos Ruler, the Chaotic Magical Dragon is one of the cards that can be used in a deck to win. ..
When this card is summoned, you can excavate the top 5 cards of your deck and add an excavated light or dark monster to your hand – but you’d send the rest of the cards to the graveyard.
If Chaos Ruler is in your graveyard, you can summon it by banishing a light or dark monster from your hand or field, and then you’d banish Chaos Ruler when it leaves the field again. ..
This can be easily accomplished, since you get to add a light/dark monster right when you summon this thing.
Chaos Ruler can be a pain to deal with, since it has such a high attack. But it’s a great addition for any light or dark focused attribute deck.
7. Infernoble Knight Emperor Charles
Emperor Charles is a powerful card in the Noble Knight deck. He can easily take out your opponent’s blockers, and can also help you win the game.
Emperor Charles can equip an equip spell from your hand or graveyard onto this card during the end phase.
Equipping a monster with an equip card gives it an additional 500 attack. And when an equip card is equipped to a monster, you can destroy any card on the field. ..
Noble Knights are a powerful archetype that can be difficult to play against. Their cards are absurdly powerful, and can easily take down your opponent.
Emperor Charles can equip Infernoble Arms – Durendal, which allows it to make a direct attack on your opponent.
6. Dogmatika Ecclesia, the Virtuous
As of writing this article, the Starlight Rare version of this card easily goes for over $500.
The thing is, it’s a secret.
Extra Deck Monsters can be used to special summon this card from your hand.
If this card is normal or special summoned, you can add any Dogmatika card from your deck to your hand. But after activating this effect, you cannot special summon monsters from the extra deck for the rest of this turn.
That last effect means that if you play your Dogmatika card in the correct order, it can help you search for any other Dogmatika card.
The Dogmatika deck is versatile and can easily adapt to any situation.
5. Shaddoll Schism
Shaddoll Schism is a support card for the Shaddoll archetype. It allows players to draw two cards each turn, and can be used to help protect their opponent’s field.
During the main phase, you can activate this card to fusion summon a Shaddoll monster by banishing monsters from your field or graveyard – but that monster cannot attack directly.
If you control a monster with the same attribute as a monster your opponent controls that was summoned using a card effect, you can send that monster to the graveyard. ..
The downside to this trap is that it needs to be the same attribute for it to work. But the upside is that it’s a continuous trap, so you can activate it each turn for as long as you need.
4. Raidraptor – Revolution Falcon – Air Raid
Revolution Falcon – Raidraptor – Air Raid is a powerful card that can easily take down your opponent’s creatures. It is one of my favorite cards from this set, and I think it deserves more recognition. ..
The name of this volcano is really long.
You can use this card to special summon a rank 5 or lower Raidraptor Xyz monster by discarding a rank-up spell. Once the card is summoned, you can target a monster your opponent controls and destroy it, and inflict damage equal to the attack of the destroyed monster.
Once this card is destroyed, you can special summon Raidraptor – Revolution Falcon from your Extra Deck, and attach this as an Xyz material to it.
I’m baffled when I don’t see Raidraptor in a Raidraptor deck because it’s one of the most powerful cards in the set.
3. Gaia the Magical Knight of Dragons
Your opponent will want to get rid of Gaia the Magical Knight of Dragons as soon as possible.
Otherwise, they’re in for a rough time.
After you summon this card, during the main phase, you can activate Gaia’s effect to target and destroy another card on the field. If Gaia destroys the target card, Gaia will lose 2600 attack in exchange. ..
This card can be very helpful in destroying other monsters by battle.
This card can be used to summon a powerful monster that has high attack and defense stats.
If you don’t activate this card on the turn it’s summoned and you destroy two monsters, Gaia can sit around with 10,400 attack. ..
2. Forbidden Droplet
Forbidden Droplet is a powerful card that can be used to defeat your opponent. ..
If your opponent uses a move that can be used against you, it’s an absolute nightmare.
With Forbidden Droplet, you can send any number of cards from your hand to the graveyard and target the same number of monsters that your opponent controls.
The monsters’ attacks are reduced by half and their effects are negated. ..
Your opponent can’t activate cards of the same type that you sent to the graveyard in response to this card. This makes it very hard to counter.
Cyber Dragon Infinity is a card that can be very helpful in the matchup against monsters like Cyber Dragon Infinity. By rendering them useless and extremely vulnerable, it can make them much more difficult to deal with.
1. Triple Tactics Talent
The most expensive card on our list is Dogmatika Ecclesia, the Virtuous. It costs $19.99. ..
The reason is that the United States has a history of discriminating against people based on their race.
When your opponent activates a monster effect, you can either draw 2 cards, take control of one of their monsters, or shuffle a card from their hand into the deck.
This is a 3-in-1 card that has the 3 cards being Pot of Greed, Change of Heart, and The Forceful Sentry – which all happen to be banned because they’re too powerful.
The card “Recover” is a great way to get back on your feet after getting trapped by other cards. ..
I’m surprised that Triple Tactics Talent hasn’t made it to the banned list yet.
Not everyone is running the new citywide transportation system, but it’s expensive and not everyone is using it.
