Overview

Rivals of Ixalan is a Magic: The Gathering expansion set in the Ixalan block, released January 19, 2018 with 205 cards. Use the checklist below to track which cards you own, and scan any Rivals of Ixalan 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 Rivals of Ixalan (205 cards, code rix)
  • singles buyers focused on Rivals / Ixalan

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 Rivals of Ixalan, the usual miss is rotating format value without checking current legality. Money still clusters around Rivals / Ixalan; treating the whole list like one price tier is how people overpay bulk. Also: Rivals of Ixalan (2018, 2010s Standard sets) gets mixed into lots that are not the same product — match set code rix before the art.

What to check first

First: format demand vs pure collectible demand. On Rivals / Ixalan, do condition under light before grade talk. Then use the Rivals of Ixalan checklist for gaps — sealed is not a plan for the expensive row.
