Wilds of Eldraine releases a week today, and while the power level is much tamer compared to Throne of Eldraine, there are cards from the upcoming Standard expansion that are bound to see play in Standard, Pioneer, and Modern upon release. With exciting Adventure cards and a slew of new mechanics geared towards Limited play, Wilds of Eldraine hopes to offer plenty for casual and competitive players.

Encompassing this Standard release is your usual array of Draft, Set, and Collector Boosters, but there’s also two Commander Precons — Fae Dominion and Virtue and Valor — that offer a Faerie and Enchantment theme if you want to take a diverse approach to playing the singleton format. With Wilds of Eldraine previews kicking off August 15 and only finishing last Thursday, many players are beginning to snap up cards to secure a reasonable price before the September 8 release. While we’ll go through some of the bestselling Wilds of Eldraine cards sold so far, there’s a handful of cards that didn’t make the cut but are worth discussing.

Copies of Mosswood Dreadknight are seeing decent sales as it looks to be a notable role-player for Golgari Midrange builds in Standard and Pioneer. In addition, it’s also one of the more elegantly designed Adventure cards that’s also a nod to the Green Knight of the Arthurian lore. Then, Ashiok, Wicked Manipulator is a card many players missed during previews, and the hype is beginning to manifest as it’s a decent Planeswalker card in Standard with the potential to see play in Commander also. And finally, Obyra, Dreaming Duelist is an excellent Faerie Uncommon as the creature type is seeing a return in Wilds of Eldriane, where players will look to incorporate Sleep-Cursed Faerie and Spell Stutter into Standard builds upon release.

With Wilds of Eldraine previews behind us, let’s see which cards from the upcoming Standard expansion sold best, with the data starting when previews began on August 15.

10 Beseech the Mirror

A card that caught the eyes of many competitive Magic players is Beseech the Mirror, a Sorcery that offers some rather silly effects if you can meet the Bargain cost, which is an improvised variant of Kicker that sacrifices permanents as part of the cost instead of adding mana. In formats such as Modern, Beseech the Mirror can find a swathe of powerful cards such as The One Ring, where you can sacrifice the Legendary Artifact to find another one, and as you’re casting the card, the “protection from everything” clause will trigger. Even in Standard and Pioneer, there are rumblings of using Beseech the Mirror to find and cast Sheoldred, the Apocalypse since you can Bargain away a Blood token created by Bloodtithe Harvester.

Then there’s Legacy, where Beseech the Mirror will likely be the most broken since you can win on turn one if you have a hand that features Swamp, two Dark Ritual, Lotus Petal (or a Lion’s Eye Diamond), and Beseech the Mirror. Through ramping with the rituals to cast Beseech the Mirror (with Bargain, thanks to Lotus Petal) to find Gaea’s Will, cast it, and then recast the cards in from your graveyard, cast Beseech the Mirror again to find Tendrils of Agony and cast it with enough Storm to kill the opponent. Even in Commander, Beseech the Mirror is strong in any Black strategy as it’s effectively a tutor with an upside, and tutors remain a popular yet polarizing aspect of the singleton format. In terms of eternal applications, Beseech the Mirror is one the best cards from Wilds of Eldraine and it isn’t close.
