TheYu-Gi-Oh! TCG’sRage of the Abyss contains some hard-to-find and valuable cards once you reach the higher rarities. These cards are not only gorgeous to look at with their special quarter-century foiling and 25th-anniversary watermark on the body, but many of them are also very useful as upgrades to your existing deck.
Card values are often dictated by their usefulness. If a card shows potential, then the highest rarity will bloat in price. Meanwhile, some cards have less of a use, so even the quarter-century printings won’t be so expensive. So which do you want to pull? From omni negates to amazing hand traps, these are the ten most valuable cards in Rage of the Abyss.
Card values reflect the market value as seen onTCGPlayer.comand may be subject to fluctuation with time.
10Red-Eyes Black Fullmetal Dragon Quarter Century Rare $86.58
The Red-Eyes Archetype Continues
The Red-Eyes archetypehas never really had a consistent game strategy. Many times, they either act as support for other dragon decks or can be used as tech to burn your opponent’s life points.
Red-Eyes Black Fullmetal Dragon is already a good addition to any dragon deck due to the omni negate that comes with it. However, this only makes the quarter-century printing of the card increase in value as well. So if you happen to hit this card when pulling a quarter-century card from a pack, you’re in good hands.
9Azamina Mu Rcielago Quarter Century Rare $89.39
Multiple Searches With One Card
The Sinful Spoils archetype is one of the most useful sets of cards that first saw print inAge of Overlord. In Rage of the Abyss, the archetype gets even more support, and it just so happens to have a sleek and sparkling presentation.
This extra deck monster acts as a fantastic extender by fetching cards from the deck when it is Fusion Summoned. It can fetch both Azamina and Sinful Spoils cards this way, but can also do a second search if it gets destroyed by battle or card effect.
8Poseidra Abyss, The Atlantean Dragon Lord Quarter Century Rare $93.43
A Powerful Sea Serpent
Extra deck monsters tend to be some ofthe most valuable cards in the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG. This is because most decks rely heavily on using the extra deck to bring out utility or setting up a strong board to stop your opponent.
Poseidra Abyss, The Atlantean Dragon Lord is a fantastic support for water and Sea Serpent-type decks. It is easy to summon, can bounce back cards, and will float into smaller monsters if it hits the graveyard. So, as far as extra deck monsters go, it has every reason to be worth the price.
7Azamina Moa Regina Quarter Century Rare $94.01
Card Destruction Galore
Azamina Moa Regina is another extra deck monster that supports your Sinful Spoils engine. What’s good about this card is that the effects can activate while you’re using your other Azamina or Sinful Spoils cards.
So it’s not too difficult to use the effect to destroy two cards during your and your opponent’s turn. As an extra deck monster and card that helps Sinful Spoils, it is only natural that players gravitate toward this card. While a cheaper alternative is available, there will always be those rarity hunters who want the shiniest version.
6Fire King Courtier Ulcanix $112.46
The Hottest Card
Rage of the Abyss may market itself as a water-centric expansion to the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG, but one of the hottest cards you can pull is the quarter-century printing of Fire King Courtier Ulcanix. The Fire Kings make common appearances in fire-based decks and even havea pretty decent structure deckavailable.
Fire King Courtier Ulcanix can destroy cards in your hand or on the field. This is excellent for an archetype that likes to destroy itself to trigger its most powerful effects. Naturally, any card that becomes a staple for their decks becomes a hot ticket item.
5Deception Of The Sinful Spoils Quarter Century Rare $136.35
An Azamina Searcher
Deception of the Sinful Spoils has many reasons that see it go up in price. For starters, it is a searcher for your Azamina cards allowing you to jump from Sinful Spoils directly into the Azamina engine.
It’s also a Continuous Spell, so if you have an Azamina monster on the field and one of your opponent’s monsters touches the grave, you can burn them for 1,500 life points. This is excellent for time rules, since monsters are bound to go to the grave in the process of setting up a field or if you personally destroy them.
4Mulcharmy Fuwalos Secret Rare $142.31
When A Secret Rare Soars In Price
The idea that you can potentially draw multiple cards from your deck during your opponent’s turn and get to use them if they’re hand traps, is something that players will immediately swarm to if given the opportunity.
Mulcharmy Fuwalos starts off as a secret rare in Rage of the Abyss. With most boxes containing only two of these rarities, the odds of hitting Mulcharmy Fuwalos are already low enough as it is. The fact that you need three of these also makes the price go up. It’s a simple case of supply and demand.
3Dominus Impulse Quarter Century Rare $147.41
An Extra Interruption
A good deck always hasa healthy number of hand trapsavailable to negate effects, stop searches, or get rid of boards. Dominus Impulse may have a steep cost that locks you out of using the effects of three attributes, but it is a powerful tool in decks that can use it.
Like other hand traps, higher-rarity printings are greatly sought after due to their usability. Plus, anything that can stop a Special Summon from the deck is a fantastic effect for a card to have.
2Lacrima The Crimson Tears Quarter Century Rare $204.94
Multi-Purpose Fiendsmith
Lacrima the Crimson Tears may be one of the more expensive cards in Rage of the Abyss, but luckily, it is not one that you need three of. Only one of these will suffice, so if you want to flex, then there is a quarter-century rare printing you’re able to slide into your deck.
This card can send a Fiendsmith card from your deck to the grave and bring back Fiendsmith Link monsters during your opponent’s turn. It can also shuffle itself back to the deck allowing you to recycle it.
1Mulcharmy Fuwalos Quarter Century Rare $476.69
Go Big Or Go Home
As if Mullcharmy isn’t expensive enough as it is, the quarter-century rare printing of Mulcharmy Fuwalos is the most valuable card you can pull from Rage of the Abyss. Already one of the greatest hand traps, it is only made more elusive by the scarcity of this specific printing.
If you happen to pull this card, you are in for a payday. However, pulling it from a pack also means that you can flex on your opponent if you add it to your deck.
