Dark Ascension is a Magic: The Gathering standard-legal expansion released on 3 February 2012 (15 years ago) with 158 cards in the set, using the set code DKA. A standard-legal expansion - the main type of Magic release, with its own world, mechanics and draft environment. On this page you can browse every Dark Ascension product we track - booster packs, booster boxes and preconstructed decks - and jump straight into the full Dark Ascension card list with daily updated prices.
The most valuable Dark Ascension cards right now are Mikaeus, the Unhallowed, Zombie Apocalypse, Gravecrawler, Beguiler of Wills, Elbrus, the Binding Blade // Withengar Unbound and Grafdigger's Cage. Mikaeus, the Unhallowed leads the set at around €24,51 for a near-mint copy. Prices for every Dark Ascension single are refreshed daily from Cardmarket, TCGplayer and Cardhoarder, so the DKA value list you see here reflects the current market rather than an old price guide.

Most popular Dark Ascension cards with players
The Dark Ascension cards players build with most often include Evolving Wilds, Faithless Looting, Vault of the Archangel, Tragic Slip, Fling and Thought Scour. These are the DKA staples that show up in Commander, Standard and constructed decks, and steady demand is usually what keeps their price from dropping after the set rotates out of print.
Opening Dark Ascension boosters and booster boxes
A sealed Dark Ascension booster box is the cheapest way to open DKA cards in bulk, while collector boosters concentrate the foil and extended-art treatments. In Dark Ascension the chase treatments include Zombie Apocalypse and Gravecrawler, which only appear in the collector print run - worth knowing before you decide between draft, play and collector boosters. 3 of the ten most valuable Dark Ascension cards are mythic rares, which is a good indicator of where the box value sits.
Dark Ascension card prices and how we track them
Every DKA single on Magicmark.io carries a market price in EUR and USD, a price trend, and 1-day, 7-day and 30-day averages, rebuilt daily from Cardmarket "from" prices plus other marketplaces. That means the Dark Ascension price you see is what a near-mint copy actually sells for today, not the value it had at release in 2012. Foils, etched foils and special treatments are priced separately, so you never compare a non-foil DKA rare to its foil version by accident.
Looking for a specific Dark Ascension printing? Use the Dark Ascension card database to filter DKA singles by rarity, colour, mana value, foil treatment, language and price, browse Dark Ascension booster boxes and Dark Ascension boosters, compare it with the other Magic expansions, or scan a card with the MTG card scanner to identify the exact Dark Ascension printing you are holding and see what it is worth in 2026.
