A community deck guide for the ST30 Ace and Luffy build arrives with the deck's headline parallel down 7.7% on the week and less than half its all-time high.
ST30 and the $56.04 ceiling
A full deck guide for the ST30 Ace and Luffy build surfaced on r/ONEPIECETCG on October 2, covering the list, card selections, lines of play and the deck's general plan. Content like that tends to arrive after a product has already been priced by the market, and ST30 is no exception. The chase slot, Luffy & Ace (Parallel), sits at $56.04, down 7.7% over seven days and down 8.7% over thirty.
> $119.37 · the all-time high on ST30's parallel leader
That high is a long way above the current print. The card above is trading at less than half of where it peaked, which is the usual shape for a starter deck alt art once supply catches up with the launch-week scramble. The 90-day chart shows the drift rather than a cliff.
Inside the box
ST30 is a starter deck, so there is no sealed EV ratio on file for it and no box market print to compare against MSRP. What exists instead is a thin, legible card list where the top slot carries most of the value and everything underneath it is accessible. For reference on how sealed math works elsewhere, OP11 leads our board at a 0.76 EV ratio on a $568.55 box, which is still negative by design; see the full board on the EV page.
The gap between the leader and the second name is the story. Monkey.D.Luffy (Parallel) is at $14.47, off 1.8% on the week and effectively flat at 0.7% down across thirty days, with an all-time high of $22.35. Below that, the list drops into single digits fast.
One name is going the other way. Mr.3(Galdino) (Full Art) is up 9.5% over seven days to $4.48, even though it remains 5.5% lower across the month and well under its $8.38 peak. Small-dollar commons moving on playability is the most common signature of a deck guide cycle, though a single week of data proves nothing on its own.
The graded side
PSA population and gem rate are not on file for ST30 yet, which is normal for a recent starter product where most copies are being sleeved rather than submitted. What we do have is a graded print: a PSA 10 Luffy & Ace (Parallel) marks at $221.50, a 4x multiple on raw.
A 4x graded premium on a card that has already lost half its peak value is the tension in this set. The raw number has been falling while the graded number carries a wide spread, which usually reflects thin graded supply rather than conviction.
Long-term read
No Long-Term Score has been assigned to ST30, so the read is structural rather than scored. Starter decks are reprint-friendly and widely distributed, which caps upside on everything except the single headline parallel, and that parallel is currently the only ST30 card above $20.
What moves this set from here is tournament results, not guides. If the Ace and Luffy list converts attention into finishes, the mid-tier parallels around $14.47 and the $4.48 common are where demand lands first, since the top slot is already priced for the leader's role. Track the rest of the list on the screener.
