Disney Lorcana's Best Set 7 Deck is The Most Expensive Ever

Summary

  • Set 7 made Sapphire/Steel the best, most expensive deck in Disney Lorcana’s history.
  • Most of the top Sapphire/Steel lists run the same, pricey cards like Tamatoa – Happy as a Clam.
  • Blue/Steel is the strongest, most costly deck, averaging around $500 to create from scratch.

With the game being relatively new, initially releasing its first-ever set in August of 2023, Disney Lorcana can have some cheap decks to jump into the competitive scene, but it’s not uncommon for some of them to go above the $200 mark, if not over $300. This can be especially true for some Ink color combinations, as popular Lorcana cards like Rapunzel – Gifted With Healing or Maui – Half-Shark still retain a very high value despite being from sets before the newest one. A Steel Song deck (Amber/Steel) can be quite expensive, for example, but the current best deck in set 7 is setting a new record, just not necessarily a good one.

Lorcana‘s new Archazia’s Island set added Dual-Ink cards, which can only be used in decks featuring those two specific colors, but usually come with better-than-average abilities or stats. Yet, these haven’t had a massive impact on the game’s meta yet, unlike some other quite potent cards released in set 7. Even before the expansion came out, many players were theorizing that Sapphire would be the strongest Ink color in the game with Archazia’s Island, and that very much came true. Now, the strongest deck in the game is Sapphire/Steel, and it can cost an eye-watering $500-600 to make from scratch.

Set 7 Made Sapphire/Steel The Best Deck in Lorcana at a Steep Price

Most of the best Sapphire/Steel lists run 4 copies of the exact same cards, with some variations for the rest of the deck. These cards are the following:

  • 4x Tipo – Growing Son ($1.87 each)
  • 4x Belle – Apprentice Inventor ($0.20 each)
  • 4x Hiram Flaversham – Toymaker ($5.75 each)
  • 4x Tamatoa – Happy as a Clam ($55.03 each)
  • 4x Sail The Azurite Sea ($0.69 each)
  • 4x Let The Storm Rage On ($0.95 each)
  • 4x Strength of a Raging Fire ($21.22 each)
  • 4x Pawpsicle ($0.34 each)
  • 4x Fortisphere ($0.25 each)
  • 2-3x Lucky Dime ($9.45 each)

Some of these decks also use multiple copies of Lorcana‘s Oswald – The Lucky Rabbit, which spiked in value after the release of set 7, much like other cards on the list. An example is Strength of a Raging Fire, which went for around half its current price before.

Prices are based on TCGPlayer’s current offers for Lorcana cards.

On top of that, most Sapphire/Steel decks in Disney Lorcana use four copies of Scrooge McDuck – Resourceful Miser, which can in some rare cases be played for free, but more importantly, it’s a powerful 4-cost character to play with a great statline of 4 Strength and Willpower. It also has Item synergy built into it, making it a very powerful card to play. However, being a Legendary Lorcana card from Archazia’s Island, it is also quite rare and expensive, sitting at $25.80 on TCGPlayer for one copy.

Another big staple of the deck is Fishbone Quill, which is often played in 2-to-4 copies depending on the list, as it’s not only an Item that Hiram Flaversham can sacrifice to draw two cards, but it can also ramp up pretty fast. Each copy goes for $7.70 on TCGPlayer at the moment. Just with the base list and these extra cards, the price of the deck is currently around $500, and it includes a total of 44-47 cards when a Lorcana deck needs at least 60.

Blue/Steel is Lorcana’s Best and Most Expensive Deck

As such, given its performance and the current average price of must-have cards, this has become the most expensive Lorcana deck in the game’s history – and prices are not even set in stone yet, meaning they may increase before they finally drop in a few weeks. Yet, one of the single best cards in the deck is Lorcana‘s new Belle – Apprentice Inventor Common, which can be used on turn one and sing songs on turn two, destroying the competition. Despite this cheap card’s power, the rest of the deck is equally important to function, and cards like Tamatoa – Happy as a Clam take it to the next level.
