Set 8 Disney Lorcana cannot avoid the same bullet that most others have

Summary

Set 7 was strengthened by a sapphire with powerful legends such as Scrooge McDuck, which significantly influenced the meta.
Despite recent bans, Sapphire remains strong; Amber urgently needs an alternative to Rapunzel.
The introduction of new engines for Amber in Set 8 could solve the problem of dominance and high rapunzel prices.

2025 has already been an incredibly impressive year for Disney LorcanaThe state of the game so far, when in March the island of arrest fell and transformed meta in different key ways. Set 7 has created an already powerful Sapphire ink color even stronger thanks to the big new one Lorcana Legendary on the island of array, such as Scrooge McDuck – inventive Miser and Tamatoa – Happy as Cleans, all, while further seizes color using Belle – teaching inventor and other cards. All other ink colors probably need the same level of attention to Set 8, but one of them needs a great upgrade to which the game avoids Set 2.

Even with the recent Lorcana Hiram Flaversham – Toymaker and Fortisphere, Sapphire remains an extremely strong color, which now makes amazing pairing with Ruby over steel. The decks are now very diverse compared to the ban, but some card archetypes are simply not yet supported by certain color combinations or on -board strategies. In the case of amber, this color of ink has been served several times in the past when it was paired with steel, mainly and then with other colors, to a lesser extent. Now, however, it is clear that desperately needs a replacement or at least an alternative to Rapunzel – gifted by recovery.

Best Set 7 Deck Disney Lorcana is the most expensive ever

Meta Disney Lorcana has heavily shifted with the expansion of the island of Army and the new best package is also the most expensive.

Why Lorcana's Rapunzel – talented by recovery needs an alternative

Rapunzel – gifted with recovery is probably one of the best cards in the game taken in the vacuum as as legendary from LorcanaThe first set, which also has enchanted version, can be too expensive to buy or trading in 2025. This card can go for about $ 50 to $ 60, depending on its condition and seller, with the foil version is usually much more expensive and enchanted by $ 190-200.

There are different factors that contribute to such a high price. One is that Rapunzel – gifted by recovery is simply very strong Lorcana card; It costs 4, it is incab, it is 1/5, tasks for two and most importantly has the ability of flash and glow that allows players to heal up to 3 damage from their characters and draw so many cards. Another reason is that it is legendary and it is from the least printed and precious settings, which is difficult to get. Finally, because of these two factors, it is also very sought after for most amber deck, which is where the problem lies.

Rapunzel – gifted by recovery is so widely used, because in Amber simply has no real alternatives. There are engines in this color, but there are few between them and none of them are close to what Rapunzel can offer. Ravensburger should add a new draw or two for Amber under the reign of the Jafar expansion instead. If it was good, it would solve two problems at once.

Lorcana can kill two birds with one stone in set 8

Having alternatives to Rapunzel – gifted with recovery would make it less oppressed and widely used, which also reduced its price in the process and relieves the pressure on Ravensburger to overwhelm the first chapter. This is a mutually advantageous situation, but this can only be possible if Set 8 actually does something unprecedented and includes one or two powerful traction engines for Amber. They could even be LorcanaCards with dual ink rather than common, because these color combinations should then use to draw cards, which is not rapunzel. It remains to see if this will be the case, but it is something that Ravensburger should at least consider.
