Is Ascended Heroes worth completing?#
$3,672.23 completes it. The base set is cheap for its size (the commons, uncommons and rares are about $30, and 217 of the 295 cards are under $1), so the cost is the Special Illustration Rares. Prices have fallen hard in our history: $6,545.73 in April 2026, $7,741.18 at the late June high and $3,917.16 by late October, down 40%, and the Elite Trainer Box is down 33% over 180 days. Verdict: a big project, cheaper now than at any point since April; without the top three it is about $1,936.
