Overview

Aether Revolt is a Magic: The Gathering expansion set in the Kaladesh block, released January 20, 2017 with 197 cards. Use the checklist below to track which cards you own, and scan any Aether Revolt card with Tappr to read a Scryfall market estimate synced about every 24 hours.

Best for

  • players tracking rotating and eternal demand together
  • people completing or pricing Aether Revolt (197 cards, code aer)
  • singles buyers focused on Aether Revolt / Heroic Intervention

Skip if

  • you will not check edition/treatment and still want “NM mythic” prices
  • you expect every rare in the set to hold similar resale

Common mistakes

On Aether Revolt, the usual miss is masterpiece / expedition / showcase foils treated like regular rares. Money still clusters around Aether Revolt / Heroic Intervention; treating the whole list like one price tier is how people overpay bulk. Also: Aether Revolt (2017, 2010s Standard sets) gets mixed into lots that are not the same product — match set code aer before the art.

What to check first

First: frame type and treatment. On Aether Revolt / Heroic Intervention, do condition under light before grade talk. Then use the Aether Revolt checklist for gaps — sealed is not a plan for the expensive row.
