Recurring characters, like Mirei Mikagura, get their time in the spotlight with amazing card art. Just like in most popular card games, beautiful art in cardboard form sells high. Such is the case in Digimon Card Game. Many of the pricey cards available in BT11 are the coveted alternate art cards.
These prices all come fromTCGplayer’s Market Valueand are subject to change.
10Mervamon (Alternate Art) - $24.32
Mervamon is the newest addition to the Minervamon deck introduced in BT10 Xros Encounter. Just like her BT10 counterpart, Mervamon’s Alternate Art managed to climb the ranks of price with its stunning art. Mervamon is probably one of the sleeper hits from the set since her deck is a bit harder to master than others, and it takes a while to truly perfect it, but once fans do, the price of this will skyrocket.
While the regular art of the card is still an incredible card to look at, the alternate art version feels a bit more dynamic in its movement, and the waifu tax is definitely working overtime on this card.
9Galacticmon (Alternate Art) -$26.01
The big bad villain from Digimon World 3 looks even more menacing in its alternate art version of the coveted Secret Rare Digimon. Towering over the Digimon World 3 heroes, Galacticmon is ready to strike down Marsmon with its Ragnarok Cannon and assimilate the Digimon back toa cute baby Digimon.
Galacticmon is a great new deck with an interesting gimmick. Fans of the game will be interested in picking up a playset of the space goliath, especially one featuring the incredible alternate art.
8LadyDevimon (Alternate Art) - $27.95
As one of the new cards added in BT11 to upgrade the Mastemon deck, LadyDevimon is one of the must-own cards for any Mastemon fan. With devilish looks, paired with beautiful artwork featuring Mirei Mikagura, this new LadyDevimon card can help you recover missing pieces from the trash that you might have put there through other effects.

The only problem with this gorgeous card is that you not only have to buy a playset of them, you will also have to buy a playset of Angewomon. Why have peanut butter if you don’t have jelly?
7Yuuya Kuga (Alternate Art) - $29.74
Hands down the best Tamer card in the set, Yuuya Kuga is a powerhouse in itself. Its dark and edgy artwork comes paired with an incredible effect to boot. Not only can he disregard any Option effects that may target your BlackWarGreymon stack, but it is the memory setter for the deck.
Usually, BlackWarGreymon ran acommon staple like the BT1 Tai Kamiya, but with Yuuya giving a more useful effect for the deck, it’s a no-brainer to include this card in any BlackWarGreymon deck moving forward.
6Angewomon (Alternate Art) - $31.80
Paired nicely with the LadyDevimon alternate art, this Angewomon is the winner of the two. Rather than a static sitting pose as the LadyDevimon has, Angemon’s alternate art poses a bit more graceful and fluidly as if she was flying into the skies.
The best thing about all the new alternate arts in the BT11 set is that, not only are they incredible artworks, but they also pair them up with their Tamers in the frame. Plus, Angewomon being the better card from the duo helps out in terms of value.
5BlackWarGreymon (X Antibody) (Alternate Art) -$33.70
Being the boogeyman of the BT11 format, you would expect the boss card of the strongest deck to be the most expensive. Whether it is because people expect the deck to be nerfed in some capacity in the next Restricted and Limited List, or that the BlackWarGreymon X alternate art is basically a Yuuya Kuga card, it doesn’t take away from the fact that the card still looks incredible.

Subtle details in Digimon cards are a fans' favorite thing to spot. Especially when it’s small Easter eggs like Yggdrasil floating in the background.
4Mirei Mikagura (Alternate Art) - $41.86
As the first Super Rare Tamer card ever printed in the Digimon Card Game, it would be wrong ifBandaididn’t give this great card an even better alternate art. Bandai delivered with stunning artwork for Mirei Mikagura.
Featuring a Dodomon and the iconic Jijimon from Digimon World, Mirei stands in a green pasture with her signature coy look on her face. Being some of the best Mastemon support in the set makes this card especially desirable.
3Rina Shinomiya - $45.06
Tamers have always been printed as a Rare or lower rarity, but in BT11, Bandai came out the door swinging with not only a Super Rare Tamer but also the first-ever Secret Rare Tamer in the Veemon Tamer Rina Shinomiya.
Rina had gotten her own card in the past to pair with any Veemon cards, but it was merely a search card with a small DP boost. With the new Rina, the UlforceVeedramon deck becomes way more powerful and has an easier way to One-Turn-Kill your opponent.
2Rina Shinomiya (Alternate Art) - $57.59
It’s only natural that the alternate art of one of the two Secret Rare cards found in the set is one of the most expensive cards. The Rina Shinomiya alternate art is well worth the money, not because her strong effect can protect your Veemon cards from deletion, but also because her hugging her partner Veemon is just outright adorable.
Rina is one of those cards that, although they are mostly fixed on one archetype rather than being generically good, will hold its value due to it being a Secret Rare will a low pull rate.
1Gold Cards - $142 - $328
Just like the chase cards in BT10, There are three gold cards found in BT11 that were older cards reprinted with special foiling. Although Bandai didn’t release official pull rates for the cards, people have narrowed down the odds of finding one in every two booster cases. Meaning if you buy 24 booster boxes, you’ll probably find one.
These will be the cards to chase for if you are collecting or are trying to make some money off of your pulls. You’ll need all the luck in the world though, especially since they all vary in value — the UlforceVeedramon card isn’t even the max rarity version of the card, making its value significantly lower than the rest.
