Why the Price is Soaring: Investment Analysis
The intense market value of the “Mega Lucario ex MUR” card is fueled by a powerful combination of competitive play viability and its unique, ultra-premium collector status.
1. A Powerhouse in the Competitive Meta
Mega Lucario ex is a highly anticipated card among competitive players. It boasts a high HP and features two formidable attacks:
- Aura Jab: Deals 130 damage for only one Fighting Energy, while also offering essential Energy acceleration by attaching Energy from the discard pile to your Benched Pokémon.
- Mega Brave: A massive hit for 270 damage.
Although it is weak to Psychic-type Pokémon (which includes the currently dominant Gardevoir ex in the meta), Lucario’s immense popularity and the card’s potential to become a top-tier attacker as the competitive landscape evolves is driving high demand from the player base.
2. The Introduction of the Special “MUR” Rarity
The main driver of its collector value is the introduction of a brand-new, ultra-exclusive rarity: MUR (Mega Ultra Rare).
- What is MUR? MUR is a special rarity, similar to the past “BWR (Black & White Rare)” introduced in older Japanese sets.
- Unique Aesthetic: MUR cards are characterized by a lavish, full-card gold foil treatment and special texture effects, making them highly distinct and visually appealing.
- Extreme Pull Rate: Because the new MUR rarity has a very low pull rate, it immediately draws major attention from high-end collectors and investors, leading to the rapid appreciation of the market price.
