How a player climbs the Pulse

A player climbs the Pulse when more cards are selling, prices are moving up and deal hunters keep spotting bargains. The most valuable card on the board right now is the Fernando Mendoza · 2026 Topps Chrome RC / 2026 Prizm RC, around $2.39.

What demand means

Demand means how many people want a card compared with how many exist. Big games, drafts and news send more collectors after the same few cards, so prices rise; when the buzz fades they drift back. That is why the list changes every week.
