Alternate special rarity cards drive the early interest in One Piece Card Game’s upcoming OP-08 expansion, Two Legends, with one Whole Cake Island villain and a Rogers Pirate among the top-billed chase cards.
As we prepare for the release of One Piece’s eighth set, Two Legends, we can take a look at all the cards worth serious money on the secondary market. These are, of course, subject to price changes as OP-08 hits shelves (and we’ll update accordingly when it does) but most high-rarity cards will hold high demand.
This One Piece set, which is themed around Silvers Rayleigh and Edward Newgate, has several big chase cards you’re going to want to crack packs to find.
Best One Piece Two Legends cards to pull
11) Black Maria Alt-Art — $89

She may be one of only a few character alt-arts to make the list, but Black Maria being an early Two Legends chase card makes total sense. Not only is she a popular Animal Kingdom Pirates crew member, but her OP-08 card will instantly become a must-play metagame staple in any Purple deck.
She’s one of the main reasons Trafalgar Law’s Red/Purple Leader card was banned, with the Law/Black Maria combo too strong in the Eastern metagame.
10) Marco Alt-Art Leader — $97

Two Legends has several Leaders that should squeeze into the One Piece competitive landscape, and Marco ranks near top among them. Red and Blue are a popular color combo and Marco is one of the all-time faves for anyone who loves the Whitebeard Pirates. His frankly handsome full-card art is just gravy.
9) Charlotte Pudding Alt-Art Leaders — $107

Not only is Yellow/Purple an interesting color combination for any One Piece leader, but Emperor of the Sea Charlotte Linlin’s daughter Pudding is simply a very popular character from the series. She’s one of the central characters who appears in the Sanji-focused Whole Cake Island arc and plays a crucial role as a secret enemy who then eventually flips sides to help the fleeing Straw Hats.
8) Nami Alt-Art — $141
![Nami from One Piece appears on a Yellow Character card from the Bandai card game.](https://dotesports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/nami-alt.jpg?w=640)
Unsurprisingly, one of the most popular Straw Hat crew members has another alt-art card that costs a dime to collect. This one depicts Nami in her Egghead outfit, which will drive up the price because that well-received future-themed arc is currently airing in the anime and literally just ended its manga run after several years.
7) Tashigi Special Rare — $142

We’ll keep Tashigi on the list for now, but this Dot Esports writer suspects the Navy swordswoman’s place in the list may disappear once Two Legends lands in the West; much of her price right now is propped up by Eastern interest in the character.
6) Queen Special Rare — $149
![Queen from One Piece appears on a Purple Treasure Character card from the Bandai card game.](https://dotesports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/treasure-queen.jpg?w=640)
Queen’s five-cost blocker card from the Animal Kingdom Pirates Starter deck originally released in 2022 has stayed relevant through three years of metagame shifts, and so a Special Rare reprint was always going to fetch a pretty penny. Queen is also a popular character from the Wano Country arc.
5) Gecko Moria Special Rare — $156
![Gecko Moria from One Piece appears on a Blue Treasure Character card from the Bandai card game.](https://dotesports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/treasure-moria.jpg?w=640)
Like Queen, this Gecko Moria card still sees play in the metagame (in Blue Warlords Doflamingo) and was first released in a Starter Deck way back in 2022.
4) Portgas D. Ace Special Rare — $189

This version of Ace’s much-played Paramount War card from back in early 2023 leapfrogs several playable cards because of how popular Luffy’s brother is. It also helps that this still sees some play in any Red Whitebeard rush decks.
3) Jewelry Bonney Special Rare — $189
![Jewelry Bonney from One Piece appears on a Green Treasure Character card from the Bandai card game.](https://dotesports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/treasure-bonney.jpg?w=640)
Bonney’s special card has three reasons for its price: 1) It’s still played in one of the top metagame decks, Bonney’s OP-07 Leader, 2) She’s a key character from the currently-airing One Piece anime arc, 3) It’s easily one of the best looking Special Rares we’ve seen in recent times, which helps a lot here.
2) Charlotte Pudding Special Rare — $203

As mentioned in her Leader section above, Pudding is a super popular character from the Big Mom Pirates. This, paired with the Special Rarity pull rates, put this squarely as one of the best hits in Two Legends.
1) Silvers Rayleigh Alt-Art (Manga Rare) — $1,552
![Silvers Rayleigh from One Piece appears on a Red Manga Rare Character card from the Bandai card game.](https://dotesports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/manga-rayleigh.jpg?w=640)
This is the big one: Gol D. Roger’s right-hand man graces the cover art for Two Legends and is the big chase card of the expansion. Even the cheapest Manga rares go for at least $500 at the moment and Rayleighs is a very popular character for anyone who loves the old generation pirates in One Piece.
This article will be updated after Two Legends releases in September.
