Top Selling Magic: The Gathering Cards on TCGplayer: December 2025
By Peter Day •
The first step to serving customer demand is to understand it. So to help you follow what’s currently popular with players and collectors, we’ve put together a pair of downloadable CSV reports of the top-selling Magic: The Gathering cards of the past month.
These reports show the name and set of the Magic cards with the highest total number of copies sold on the TCGplayer Marketplace between December 1 and 31, 2025. The reports consider cards from different sets to be distinct (even if they have the same name), but do not distinguish copies sold by condition (Near Mint, Lightly Played, etc.) or by printing (Foil, etc.).
The two reports cover cards that had an average sale price in November within two ranges: $50.00 or more, and $1.00 to $49.99.
Here are five highlights from each report.
Top Selling Magic Cards: $50 or More
#1 Badgermole Cub
Set: Avatar: The Last Airbender
Average Sale Price: $54.88
Badgermole’s mountain-sized popularity made it the bestselling Magic card over $50 for the second month in a row.
It all comes down to the card’s power. With no additional support, Badgermole Cub puts 3/3 worth of stats into play and accelerates you one mana—not bad at all. But with any kind of mana dorks (like Llanowar Elves) or lands that sacrifice themselves (like fetch lands), the cub quickly builds an overwhelming mana advantage. It even stacks with itself!
We’ve seen Badgermole Cub burrow its way into Standard, Modern, Commander, and even Legacy. You should expect it to keep popping up in any format where it’s legal for the foreseeable future.
#2 The Soul Stone
Set: Marvel's Spider-Man
Average Sale Price: $60.74
In Commander, The Soul Stone is an efficient, indestructible mana rock that offers recurring value once you harness it—a no-brainer for almost any black deck.
The other Infinity Stones are expected to make their cardboard debuts in later Marvel sets like Marvel Super Heroes, likely along with some payoff for assembling them all, so any players with the means to do so are picking up their copies of The Soul Stone now while it’s relatively inexpensive.
#3 Yuna, Grand Summoner (Borderless)
Set: WPN & Gateway Promos
Average Sale Price: $76.06
This promo with original art was distributed to promote the WPN Holiday Commander Box League in December 2025. Since it was tied to an in-person play event, that distribution was extremely limited, which has made the card popular with the same crowd of collectors and investors who routinely target Reserved List cards.
#4 Badgermole Cub (Borderless)
Set: Avatar: The Last Airbender
Average Sale Price: $82.64
Not to be left out, the borderless version of Badgermole Cub has sold well for the same reason as its base version: pure power. Note that the premium for the borderless version isn’t especially high (compared to say, the normal and borderless versions of Fire Lord Azula) since players are after whichever version they can get.
#5 Wan Shi Tong, Librarian (Borderless)
Set: Avatar: The Last Airbender
Average Sale Price: $90.97
Wan Shi Tong, Librarian almost gives Badgermole Cub a run for its money as the top mythic in Avatar: The Last Airbender. The jealous owl spirit naturally scales in power according to the format—the more searching there is, the better it gets—so players have been eager to test it out in Standard, Modern, and even Vintage.
Top Selling Magic Cards: $1.00 to $49.99
#1 Boomerang Basics
Set: Avatar: The Last Airbender
Average Sale Price: $1.96
Players rushed to pick up red and blue Lesson cards from Avatar: The Last Airbender after Seth Manfield won Magic World Championship 31 with an innovative Izzet Lessons deck in early December. Boomerang Basics was one such Lesson…
#2 Accumulate Wisdom
Set: Avatar: The Last Airbender
Average Sale Price: $1.51
…And Accumulate Wisdom was another. With Gran-Gran and enough Lessons in your graveyard, Accumulate Wisdom does a nice impression of Ancestral Recall. It’s hard to pass up a Power Nine card that’s Standard-legal.
#3 Snap
Set: Dominaria Remastered
Average Sale Price: $2.09
On December 1, somebody bought enough copies of this classic Common from the reprint set Dominaria Remastered to raise the average number of copies per buyer to 44.1. A few other buyouts followed, but none were on that scale, and none of them managed to bring Snap’s price back to its all-time high of ~$3. So far, this buyout looks like it was just as inconsequential as it was mysterious.
#4 Plains (Chocobo Track Foil)
Set: Commander: FINAL FANTASY
Average Sale Price: $3.08
December was the first month that Magic players could get the Chocobo-themed basic lands that released in the FINAL FANTASY Chocobo Bundle, which released on December 5. Players who want all their lands to match each other won’t find enough copies in one bundle, so these lands have been selling fast on the secondary market.
#5 Swamp (Chocobo Track Foil)
Set: Commander: FINAL FANTASY
Average Sale Price: $1.85
That goes for all five of the Chocobo-themed basic lands, the other three of which claim spots #6-#8 in the full report.
