Yamato (079) (Alternate Art) Price
MARKET NOTE: YAMATO (079) (ALTERNATE ART)
Updated 2026-08-06
Yamato in its 079 Alternate Art Leader version from The Time of Battle trades at $77.51 near-mint and has declined on both short and medium timeframes. The seven-day window shows a $2.12 loss, and the thirty-day view accumulates to a $9.59 decline, indicating persistent sell pressure rather than a brief correction. The card is part of the One Piece card game's premium Leader category, where alternate art versions command premiums over standard printings. The steady bleed at this price level suggests the release-period premium for The Time of Battle is unwinding toward a new equilibrium as market supply expands and speculative holders exit. No ban or format-level shift has been announced that would explain an accelerating decline in card value. Buyers who believe Yamato retains format relevance may find the entry improving, but the consistent $10 monthly loss argues for patience rather than immediate position-taking at current levels.
