With that in mind, here’s a curated list of cards worth picking up. These aren’t necessarily the most expensive cards, but they’re wishlist staples that make sense to grab when you’re getting credit back.

The Best MTG Cards to Buy at TCGplayer This Black Friday

Sol Ring

### Magic: The Gathering Sol Ring

Look, it’s not exactly rare—you’ll find a Sol Ring in 90% of preconstructed decks—but is it a Pip Boy Sol Ring? I think not.

Add some radioactive flair to your ramp with this Universes Beyond card, available for around $30.

The Ur-Dragon

### Magic: The Gathering The Ur-Dragon

Dragon decks aren’t new, but the Ur-Dragon is a 10/10 powerhouse with a hefty mana cost that turns every dragon attack into card draw. Its price has been dipping, making now a solid time to pick it up for around $30.

Play it as your Commander, and you can build a five-color deck with ease.

Sauron, the Dark Lord

### Magic: The Gathering Sauron, the Dark Lord

“Oh, you want to attack me? Better sacrifice something legendary.” That’s the kind of intimidation Sauron, the Dark Lord brings. A 7/6 on its own, it spawns Orcs whenever your opponents cast spells.

You can grab it for around $10 right now.

The One Ring

### Magic: The Gathering The One Ring

Sure, Post Malone has the “One of One Ring,” but this legendary artifact is yours for around $80.

The One Ring is indestructible, fuels card draw, and grants full protection for an entire turn.

Stoneforge Mystic

### Magic: The Gathering Stoneforge Mystic

I went with this stunning Special Guests version of Stoneforge Mystic for its incredible artwork—priced around $30.

When Stoneforge Mystic enters, you can search for an Equipment and put it into your hand. You can also tap it and pay two mana to put that Equipment directly onto the battlefield, making it perfect for Equipment-focused decks (we’re looking at you, Cloud Strife).

Omniscience

### Magic: The Gathering Omniscience

Playing Blue? Omniscience is basically a cheat code. Spend ten mana to cast it, then play any nonland card from your hand for free.

This anime-style version from Wilds of Eldraine is just $25—and it’s still Standard legal.

Wan Shi Tong, Librarian

### Magic: The Gathering Wan Shi Tong, Librarian

0See it at TCGPlayer

The newest addition to this list, from the Avatar: The Last Airbender set, this 1/1 bird can be flashed in at higher power for card advantage—and grows stronger when opponents search their libraries.

Wan Shi Tong, Librarian is currently priced around $60, so you’d earn $6 back in store credit.

Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation

### Magic: The Gathering Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation

0See it at TCGPlayer

Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation is a 6/6 with vigilance that triples your creature tokens instead of doubling them. Even better—when it dies, it becomes a land that taps for mana.

It’s now down to around $22.

Quantum Riddler

### Magic: The Gathering Quantum Riddler

0See it at TCGPlayer

One of the stars of Edge of Eternities, Quantum Riddler still hovers around $40. A 4/6 flyer with flying, it delivers extra card advantage and features a warp cost.

What’s not to love—especially with $4 in store credit back?

Ugin, Eye of the Storms

### Magic: The Gathering Ugin, Eye of the Storms

0See it at TCGPlayer

Ugin, Eye of the Storms is a Planeswalker from this year’s Tarkir: Dragonstorm, and this stunning Showcase version is now around $70.

He adds three colorless mana, gains you life, and lets you cast nonland cards without paying their mana costs.
