Overview

Explorer Anthology 1 is a Magic: The Gathering box set, released July 28, 2022 with 20 cards. It is a digital-only release for MTG Arena. Use the checklist below to track which cards you own, and scan any Explorer Anthology 1 card with Tappr to read a Scryfall market estimate synced about every 24 hours.

Best for

  • people who know digital ≠ paper markets
  • people completing or pricing Explorer Anthology 1 (20 cards, code ea1)
  • singles buyers focused on Explorer Anthology

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 Explorer Anthology 1, the usual miss is mixing Alchemy balance changes into paper value. Money still clusters around Explorer Anthology; treating the whole list like one price tier is how people overpay bulk. Also: Explorer Anthology 1 (2022, digital / Arena-adjacent) gets mixed into lots that are not the same product — match set code ea1 before the art.

What to check first

First: set code carefully. On Explorer Anthology, do condition under light before grade talk. Then use the Explorer Anthology 1 checklist for gaps — sealed is not a plan for the expensive row.
