Preorders are now open for Magic: The Gathering's next Marvel crossover, Darkhold Destiny. Amazon has already listed the Darkhold Destiny Arcanum Bundle for $99.99, sold directly by the retailer, which is quickly becoming one of the most popular items from the new set.
For comparison, trading card marketplace TCGplayer is asking $200 for the same bundle, meaning Amazon is $100.01 cheaper. On the other hand, you shouldn’t take TCGplayer’s lowest price as the best listing available on the site in the short term, as there are currently only two sellers at this time; we expect more to appear as time goes on.
In the meantime, the Darkhold Destiny Arcanum Bundle has an interesting collection content-wise, and whether it’s worth the price tag or not more or less depends on what you’re looking for.
Along with a Collector Booster (alt-art Arcanum promo cards and Full-Art Lands), you’ll also get eight regular Booster Packs inside Darkhold Destiny’s Arcanum Bundle.
If you’re the type of Magic: The Gathering collector who usually likes going after the fancier treatments — like source-material cards, silver foil versions, and Midnight Raised Foils, that’s already a nice extra bang for your hundred bucks.
On the other hand, don’t go into this thinking you’re guaranteed one of the rarest pulls from the get-go, as the headliner Mythic Rares only have a 1% chance of appearing in Collector Boosters.
Personally, I think it’s the promos that will make this one more worth grabbing. You get three altogether: one traditional foil Mythic Rare, and two of six traditional foil promos — the latter being Arcanum cards with alternate art that’s exclusive to the bundle.
