How we price these cards

Prices are the live TCGplayer market price for each card's best variant (holofoil first, then normal), refreshed daily; cards TCGplayer hasn't priced fall back to Cardmarket's European trend price and are shown in €. A dash means no feed has priced that card yet. Prices are indicative of ungraded, near-mint copies and are a starting point, not an appraisal. Artist credits come from the official card data.
