Black Friday weekend is here, and if you're looking for Magic: The Gathering products, you've come to the right place.
I've been scouring retailers across the internet all week to find savings across preconstructed Commander Decks, Booster Boxes (including the elusive Collector Boosters) and much, much more - including 10% cashback when buying singles.
Here are our picks for the best Black Friday Magic: The Gathering deals, whatever it is you're hoping to find.
Looking to buy single cards you need? This might just be the place to do it. TCGPlayer has long been one of our preferred ways to buy cards, and its 10% Cashback Event, which runs from November 28 to December 1, can net you a portion of your purchases back in your pocket.
The best part is that everything is eligible, so you can use it on sealed products, too. I've put together a list of recommended buys which you can find right here, including fun Universes Beyond collaborations.
Amazon’s discounts on Booster Boxes aren’t filed under its Black Friday deals, but there’s plenty to like about them. For one, Avatar: The Last Airbender, the game’s latest set, has seen its price drop from the ludicrous price of $209 to a more reasonable fee for a box of 30 packs. It’s now $149.45.
Sticking with Universes Beyond, the Marvel Spider-Man box has dropped from the same price down to $127.77, while you can pick up a box of the Final Fantasy set for $162.57.
This year’s Tarkir: Dragonstorm set’s Booster Box is down to $99.99, more than a third off of its MSRP.
Collector Boosters are contentious within the Magic community because they're the easiest way to get rare cards, but you can expect to pay out the nose for them.
Case in point, Avatar Collector Booster Boxes are down to $399.99, and that's considered a saving.
Spider-Man cards are cheaper than that, but still not what you'd consider 'cheap'.
Commander remains the most popular way to play Magic: The Gathering, and with plenty of Commander Decks released each year, it's likely to stay that way for a while yet.
Amazon has a ton of savings on them, too, particularly if you’re looking for Universes Beyond options.
Final Fantasy’s Counter Blitz deck (our pick of the bunch) is down to $48.99, as is Scions & Spellcraft. Limit Break, which used to be massively overpriced, is now down to $56.99, while Revival Trance is $32.70 (even lower than its usual discount).
Away from Final Fantasy, Bloomburrow is a great set, and you can snag two of its adorable Commander Decks for under MSRP. Animated Army is 20% off at $37.94, while the Mrs. Bumbleflower-helmed Peace Offering is $38.60.
The Fallout Commander Decks are also great, and the Scrappy Survivors one, starring Dogmeat, Ever Loyal, is down to $49.94.
Not only is the Sultai Arisen Commander Deck down to $44.95, but you can grab a bundle of every Commander Deck from the Tarkir: Dragonstorm set for $149.99. That makes each $30, including Temur Roar and Sultai Arisen, which were both very popular at launch.
One of my personal favorites, Draconic Destruction, is just $25.

Bundles make a great option for building out collections, and the Spider-Man Gift Edition one is well worth a look. It contains an exclusive Alternate Art card, 9 Play Boosters, and a Collector Booster full of foils and special treatments.
It was already reduced, but it's got even cheaper this week, with a 25% saving.
