Magic: The Gathering Singles — Individual Cards for Your Perfect Deck

Singles are MTG cards bought individually, without opening boosters — exactly the cards you need for your deck, at market price. At Arcana Inn you'll find a wide range of Magic: The Gathering singles for every format, from Standard to Commander, Modern and Legacy, with real stock and competitive prices.

Why buy singles instead of boosters:

Boosters are fun because you don't know what you'll get — but if you want a specific card, singles are far more efficient:

• The real cost, no surprises — you see exactly how much you pay for each card
• You get exactly what you want — without opening 20 boosters hoping to find a specific mythic rare
• You build optimized decks — combining cards from different sets for the perfect strategy
• A smart investment — popular singles hold their value or increase over time

MTG singles for every format:

• Standard Singles — cards from the last 2–3 years, legal in the Standard format. Perfect for FNM and competitive players
• Commander Singles (EDH) — the essential cards for any Commander deck: ramp, draw, removal, win conditions
• Modern Singles — cards from 2003 onward, for the competitive Modern format
• Pioneer Singles — an alternative to Modern, a format introduced in 2019
• Legacy & Vintage Singles — rare and powerful cards for the eternal formats
• Pauper Singles — an ultra-budget format using only commons

Which categories of singles you'll find at Arcana Inn:

• Mythic Rares — the most powerful cards in each set, the ones sought after for competitive decks
• Rares — powerful cards, frequently used in decks
• Useful uncommons and commons — many decks rely on specific uncommons and commons
• Foils — the premium, glossy versions, perfect for a collection or showcase decks
• Showcase and Alternate Art — versions with special artwork, the most sought after by collectors
• Extended Art and Borderless — premium versions with full artwork across the card
• Promos and Prerelease — cards with special stamps from events

How to find the right singles:

• By card name — use the search bar if you know exactly what you're looking for
• By set — filter by the set the card comes from
• By rarity — a filter for mythic, rare, uncommon, common
• By color — for those building mono-color or two-color decks
• By price — filter by your budget

Popular singles for each format:

For Commander, the essential cards (staples) include: Sol Ring, Arcane Signet, Command Tower, Lightning Greaves, Swords to Plowshares, Counterspell, Cyclonic Rift, Demonic Tutor, Mana Crypt, Smothering Tithe — and many more.

For Standard, keep an eye on the mythics from recent sets that form the backbone of meta decks.

For Modern, classic cards such as Lightning Bolt, Force of Will (in Legacy), Thoughtseize, Snapcaster Mage and fetchlands are eternal staples.

Why buy singles from Arcana Inn:

• Real stock, updated in real time — what you see on the site is what you get in your cart
• Competitive prices — aligned with the Romanian and international market
• 100% genuine cards — no proxies, no illegal reprints
• Verified condition — every card is inspected before being listed
• Secure packaging — valuable cards are sleeved and packed with extra protection
• Fast delivery in Romania — orders processed quickly, with tracking
• A team of players — real recommendations for deck-building, not copy-paste from the internet

Tips for buying singles:

1. Track prices — singles fluctuate depending on the meta. A card that costs 50 RON today can reach 200 RON if it becomes popular in a competitive deck
2. Buy playsets — for Standard/Modern you need 4 copies. Buy them all at once and save on shipping
3. Invest in staples — cards like Sol Ring or fetchlands are used in dozens of decks and are good long-term investments
4. Sleeves are a must — cards over 30 RON should be sleeved immediately for protection
5. Check legality — make sure the cards you buy are legal in your preferred format

Whether you're building your first Commander deck, optimizing a Standard deck for FNM, or collecting rare cards, you'll find here the largest base of MTG singles in Romania.
