With the current rewards cards market drop in prices I thought it maybe a good time to discuss what cards are good to invest in. All the recommendations to follow are my own opinion and not in no way are they universal. Someone else may have a different opinion on what cards are better.
My first choices would be the legendary for a few good reasons. First it only requires 11 cards to max a regular making it quite easy to max if one is patient enough to snag the cards at low prices. As of now both Djinn Biljka and Harklaw are under $2 per bcx, as legendary cards this won't last long. Another reason is that legends tend to have stats advantageous in battles which makes them primary go to cards in matches. For instance in water splinter if magic is of focus Djinn Oshannus would fit well for a high mana match.
Similar to legend but slightly cheaper would be rewards epics currently still in print. It takes 46 cards to max so do not be deceived thinking $0.40 or less per a card makes it as easy to max level as legendary. Look at Uraeus leading the pack in my opinion since its a neutral monster and low mana can be use in many different kinds of rank battles.
For rares I would go with Gargoya Devil and Venari Crystalsmith.
Neutral card and healing ability is always useful in battles. Coming in close second Naga Assassin and Venari Wavesmith are good adds to enhance dragon and water splinters respectively. Both cards low in mana but but have stats that benefit in specific rule sets.
I recommend Pelacor Mercenary if one wants to build up commons. The card by level 6 will include self heal which closely resembles that of the Flesh Golem.
Gargoya Lion and Pelacor Conjurer are good seconds to add as they can be useful in specific rule sets. Pelacor Bandit also nice add as base level includes sneak and flying abilities.
For a meager $245 one can grab a whole max level set of Chaos rewards cards. That goes to show if you are specific on cards you like to add to your collection you will be best spending your $ in Chaos rewards.
I will end it here by mentioning if you want to go with gold foil to earn extra 10% DEC earnings per card used it is at an overall value of $1,586. Comparing total collection power between gold foil and regular you will be having 5x more in power with gold foil but at around 7x the price.
Until next time thanks for reading!!!
