Erosword Vol1 - Top
Title: Erosword Vol. 1 – Top
Tagline: “To hold the sword that pierces heaven, you must first be pierced by desire.”
Individual Singles
If you are a player, buy singles. The base rarity of chase cards (like Lysandra, Final Form) is affordable at around $15–$20. Only the Topaz Foil and Signature variants carry the high price tags. For investors, graded PSA 10 Topaz Foils have outperformed the S&P 500 over the past 12 months by 8%, making them an unconventional but interesting alternative asset.
Sealed Boxes
As of the last quarter, a sealed Erosword Vol.1 Top display box (containing 24 packs) has risen from an MSRP of $149.99 to a market average of $375–$450. This is driven by the limited print run and the fact that the Top edition will not be reprinted, according to a statement from the publisher, Hobby Japan. erosword vol1 top
Pro tip: The "God Rare" pull rate is exactly 1 per box, so the expected value (EV) of a sealed box is currently around $320 in singles. You are paying a premium for the thrill of the chase and the long-term hold potential.
Breaking Down "Erosword Vol.1"
To understand the "Top," you must first understand the base set. Erosword Vol.1 was released in early 2022 (or a similar timeframe depending on the market) and contains 150 base cards, 25 foil variants, and 5 "Mythic" cards. The theme of Volume 1 is "The Crimson Oath," focusing on the conflict between the Valkyrie Legion and the Succubi Swarm. Title: Erosword Vol
Key features of Vol.1 include:
- The Protagonist Card (The Nexus): A unique card representing the player's avatar.
- The "Bond Level" System: Cards evolve in artwork and stats based on in-game achievements.
- Physical Collectibles: Each box of Vol.1 includes a QR code to redeem a digital version on the blockchain (NFT integration was a major selling point).

1. Lysandra, Final Form (Topaz Foil - #001/T)
This is the poster child of the set. While the base Vol.1 includes a common Lysandra, the Top edition features her "ascended" artwork. The card boasts a 7/7 body with Flying and Vorpal Strike (excess damage carries over to the opponent’s life total). The Topaz Foil variant has seen graded PSA 10 copies sell for upwards of $1,200.
2. Altered Rarity Distribution
A standard Erosword Vol.1 booster contains 1-2 foils per pack. In contrast, Erosword Vol.1 Top guarantees:
- 4 Foils per pack (3 standard foil, 1 "Topaz Foil" exclusive)
- 1 "God Rare" per box (replacing the typical rare slot)
- A chance at a signature card (hand-signed by the lead illustrator, "Mitsuki Seiga")
