Approach of the Second Sun (JP Alternate Art) Price

Updated 2026-09-20

Approach of the Second Sun in Japanese Alternate Art treatment from Strixhaven: Mystical Archive is a premium version of a unique win condition from Amonkhet, distributed as part of the Mystical Archive bonus sheet that gave Strixhaven its secondary card pool. The card wins the game if the player casts it when it is already in the graveyard from a previous cast, making it the centerpiece of Approach-specific Commander and casual combo decks. The Japanese Alternate Art version is the most aesthetically premium version available, targeting collectors who want the best-looking copy and the Mystical Archive collector audience that developed a following for the JP art style. Mild and consistent negative drift across all time periods suggests the initial Mystical Archive launch premium is still slowly normalizing. The pace of decline is modest, and the card will find a floor where true collector demand for JP Mystical Archive mythics meets available supply at a lower equilibrium.
