Built From Scratch (Commander Anthology Volume II): decklist, contents and value
A 100-card Commander precon from Commander Anthology Volume II, led by Daretti, Scrap Savant and released June 2018. Everything the box shipped, and what it is worth today.
Was Built From Scratch worth buying?
Yes, clearly — the singles are worth several times what the deck cost at release.
Built From Scratch cost $41.25 at release. Its singles are worth at least $123.44 today — at least 2.99× what you paid, over the 8 years since it was released. (Built From Scratch shipped in a box of 4 decks at $164.99; $41.25 is that box price divided by 4, which Wizards of the Coast never published as a per-deck figure.)
95 of this deck’s 100 cards have a market price, so the total and the multiple are floors rather than exact figures.
That is a return over time, not a judgment about the day it launched: the price on the left is from release day and the one on the right is from today. An older deck has had longer for its cards to move, which is why age is quoted alongside the multiple.
Card prices as of 2026-09-02. Release price: Wizards of the Coast, verified 2026-09-02.
Where the value sits
The single most valuable card in Built From Scratch is Goblin Welder, at $22.90 — 19% of everything the deck is worth. The value is led by that card but not dominated by it.
By singles value it is the 64th most valuable of the 177 precon decks we price, and the 3rd most valuable of the 4 decks in Commander Anthology Volume II.
This deck has been out of print for years, so shops no longer sell it at its release price. Whatever a sealed copy costs today has moved away from that figure — in one direction or the other — and the comparison above is about what the deck cost when it was on shelves, not what it costs now.
Buying it sealed instead? This deck was only ever sold inside Commander Anthology Volume II — that is a live market price, not the release price above. Affiliate link — we may earn a commission on purchases.
