What to expect from Black Friday Magic: The Gathering deals 2025

Despite being better known for reductions on electrical goods like laptops or TVs, Black Friday savings go far beyond the world of tech. Along with the best board games, the best Lego sets, and D&D books, MTG sets of all kinds are included. That means both new and old expansions will be up for grabs for a fraction of the price.

Here's a better idea of what you can expect.

👑 Commander decks new and old get eyecatching price cuts
MTG's most popular format always enjoys a price cut or two when Black Friday rolls around. Although you're less likely to get big reductions on brand-new, fresh-off-the-press sets, most Commander decks will be a few months old by the time the sales arrive. That means we should be able to expect $10 or more off the sticker price (or beyond, if it's an older release).

🕐 Some of the best offers will be on old sets
While most eyes will be on the many Universes Beyond sets launched in 2025, it's worth checking out older sets as well like Aetherdrift. These commonly enjoy some of the biggest reductions.

⭐ The best savings are on booster boxes
This won't surprise MTG veterans, but the best Black Friday Magic: The Gathering deals tend to be on booster boxes. You can save $40 or more on these booster collections if you're lucky, providing far better value for money than you'd usually find.

Will we get price cuts on newer releases like MTG Spider-Man and Avatar: The Last Airbender? Possibly, but I wouldn't count on them being the best and most appealing discounts. It's far more likely that we'll see big reductions on sets launched in the first half of 2025, which means Aetherdrift and Tarkir and prime candidates for a saving.

When will the Black Friday Magic: The Gathering deals start?

MTG might change sets every couple of months, but Black Friday is more predictable. It occurs after Thanksgiving and on the final Friday of November, which means this year's Black Friday Magic: The Gathering deals are arriving on November 28, 2025.

However, that isn't to say the discounts will be limited to a single day. They start at least a week beforehand and cling on into December!

Where will the best Black Friday Magic: The Gathering deals be?

Finding the 'best' offers will depend on what you're looking for. Although the big retailers will be well worth watching during this year's Black Friday Magic: The Gathering deals, they tend to emphasize bundles, Commander decks, and massive booster boxes from the latest sets. That's why smaller, independent stores are great options to keep up your sleeve - they often provide discounts on individual cards and are competitive in terms of price.

USA
- Amazon: Good for bundles
- Walmart: Surprisingly wide range
- Best Buy: Stocks the latest sets
- Miniature Market: Great for discounts
- Target: Offers MTG merch

UK
- Amazon: Most reliable source
- Magic Madhouse: Great for individual cards
- Zatu: Good source for single booster packs
- Wayland Games: Offers regular discounts

Modern Horizons 3 Graveyard Overdrive Commander Deck | $69.99 $35.99 at Amazon
Save $34 - Sitting at just a dollar above its lowest-ever price on Amazon and at Best Buy, the Modern Horizons 3 commander deck was an excellent snag this Black Friday season. Don't be fooled by the "typical price" estimate on Amazon; the full RRP of this MTG pack was about 70 bucks, meaning you were netting a pretty penny here and an uncommon one to boot.

⭐ UK price: £65 £39.95 at The Card Vault

Fallout Science! Commander Deck | $60 $31.99 at Amazon
Save $28 - That's a record-low price on the Science Commander deck, which is a darn sight better than the $38 or so this pack normally sells for. A good start to last year's Black Friday MTG deals, in other words.

⭐ UK price: £39.95 £37.95 at Magic Madhouse

Clue Ravnica Edition | $69.99 $34.91 at Amazon
Save $35 - It's not listed as a deal, but it definitely was one considering the full MSRP. And yes, it may not be as exciting as a box full of boosters or a Commander precon set. Yet this MTG spin on Clue was just a couple of dollars away from its lowest-ever price.

⭐ UK price: £54.99 £47.09 at Zatu

Foundations Play Booster Box | $189 $122.49 at Walmart
Save $66 - Even though it's not listed as a deal, Amazon had the MSRP at $189 so, as far as I can tell, this was a record-low price on the then-upcoming Foundations set. It'd get you a ton of new cards for far less than usual.

⭐ UK price: £169.45 £128.95 at Zatu

Innistrad Remastered Collector Booster Box | $329.99 $309.99 at Miniature Market
Save $30 - It was a pre-order for an upcoming set, but hey; a bargain's a bargain. Even though Miniature Market wasn't listing the full price, I don't believe this pack of Collector Boosters had ever been cheaper than it was here.

⭐ UK price: £289.99 £284.95 at Magic Madhouse
