Most base cards are cheap and easy to grab, but the chase cards are a whole different story. Serialized prints and top-tier SR*** cards can fetch jaw dropping prices once collectors start bidding.
10. Cha Hae-in – 058 (SR***)
This top-rarity card shows off the deadly S-Rank hunter from Solo Leveling in full glory. The artwork covers the whole card and the foil work is next level compared to lower rarities. Fans of the series love her character, so this triple-star pull is always in demand. That popularity keeps her price sitting comfortably above the average chase card.
9. Asuna – 042 (SR***)
Asuna is basically anime royalty, and her spot in Sword Art Online Vol. 2 makes this a must-have. The triple-star treatment gives her fresh, high-energy art built for serious binder collections. SAO fans chase this one hard to complete their master sets, which keeps the price well above normal cards. It has held its value nicely, making it a safe long-term pickup for collectors.
8. Asta – 075 (SR***)
Black Clover’s magic-less hero gets a bold action shot on this card that really pops. The triple-star foil makes his wild Anti-Magic energy look even more intense. Asta is such a franchise icon that even people who never touch the actual game want this card. That crossover appeal between players and pure fans is what keeps the value strong.
7. Lelouch Lamperouge – 017 (SR***) (Serial Numbered)
This one is a Code Geass grail and one of the first big chase hits in the English release. It takes the already rare triple-star design and stamps a serial number right on the border. Code Geass fans treat this card like a trophy since the series is a classic favorite. Raw copies in good shape regularly sell for four figures thanks to how limited the print run was.
6. Tanjiro Kamado – 008 (SR***)
As the face of Demon Slayer, Tanjiro cards always pull serious attention from collectors. This version skips the usual template for a custom, high-impact background that stands out. Being triple-star rarity means it barely ever shows up in normal packs. For Demon Slayer collectors, it is basically the centerpiece card to chase.
5. Chihiro Rokuhira – 060 (SR***)
Chihiro comes from Kagurabachi, the breakout manga that blew up almost overnight, and his debut card rode that hype wave hard. The art nails his dark sword aesthetic with some nice textured foil work. Kagurabachi fans are intensely loyal, so demand shot up fast right after release. It shows how quickly a hyped new series can push a non-serialized card into elite pricing territory.
4. Nezuko Kamado – 021 (SR***) (Serial Numbered)
Nezuko is already massively popular, and pairing that with a tight serial number print run makes this card a serious flex. The special texturing plus the physical serial stamp make it one of the biggest status symbols in the game. Very few boxes worldwide even contain this exact print, so collectors pay big premiums to land one. It is one of the priciest and most competitive targets in the whole Demon Slayer lineup.
3. Sung Jinwoo – 022 (SR***)
As the main character of Solo Leveling, Jinwoo hits peak value with this triple-star card. The design leans into his Shadow Monarch transformation with striking dark and purple foil accents. Since he is the definitive face of the franchise, both manhwa readers and anime fans chase this one hard. It works as the top non-serialized card to grab from the whole Solo Leveling set.
2. Action Point Card – AP02* (Serial Numbered)
This card ditches the usual gameplay function entirely and goes for pure prestige on the table. Being a strictly limited, serial-numbered Action Point card, only a tiny fraction of the set includes it. The English version even carries real hand-signed autographs from the official dub cast, setting it apart from any standard variant. Collectors routinely pay thousands for it, making it one of the top two chase cards in the whole game.
1. Action Point Card – AP01* (Serial Numbered)
This card sits at the very top of the English release and is basically the ultimate grail. It carries its own serial number plus a genuine hand signature from Aleks Le, the voice actor behind Sung Jinwoo. Pulling this card is an insane long shot, and it is easily the biggest talking point of the whole Solo Leveling release. Pristine copies have sold for well over ten thousand dollars, putting it firmly at the top of the Union Arena food chain.
Pull rates on these cards are brutal, so patience is key. A normal booster box usually gives you three to five SR cards plus a couple AP cards, but the true triple-star SR*** hits only show up once every two to five full cases. Serial numbered cards are even rarer, capped at just 100 copies worldwide, meaning you might need to crack dozens of cases before ever seeing one.
