Witch-king, Bringer of Ruin (Borderless) (Surge Foil) Price

Updated 2026-08-15

Witch-king, Bringer of Ruin in the Borderless Surge Foil frame is a Mythic from The Hobbit: Eternal-Legal, Magic's second major Tolkien collaboration following The Lord of the Rings set. The Witch-king is among the most recognizable antagonists in the Tolkien canon, and Mythic status limits this card's pull rate from The Hobbit product relative to lower rarities. The Surge Foil treatment distinguishes this from standard and foil copies, with a prismatic wave effect that marks it as the prestige version of this particular printing. Licensed sets introduce an IP-driven collector base that often includes fans who value the character's significance independently of card power level. Reprint potential within the licensed IP frame is constrained by whatever Tolkien licensing terms govern the product line. Secondary market supply is fixed at retail opening and thins over time as copies get graded. Demand here is anchored by Tolkien enthusiasts and borderless foil collectors.
