Hello, I would like to ask you which rarities you think are most cost efficient to craft for the price?

    Depends on the cards you really really want, and how much  cards of the given set you already have. So no easy answer.

    Origins is the most cost-efficient.
    This set is permanently in Standard, and it's the cheapest one, too.
    So I started with crafting all of the Origins mythics.
    Thank you, it is a good point that cards from Origins are the best thanks to the cost efficiency and permanent presence in standard.

    I completed Origins first. Now I just go after stuff I want -- mostly legacy.

    I'm crafting origins at the moment. As said above they will always be useful, mythics especially. Next I'm working on the recent release of set of rares as they'll be in standard longer than other sets.

    Depending on your collection, I think crafting rares is your best bet.

    I finished origins as well. The set is not only cost efficient, it really has great cards.
    Since then I mostly crafted legacy.. I miss some power cards, plus.. I don't like waiting. 2k orbs is a huge difference

    I finished origins . Then I crafted all of the craftable rares . Now I'm working on legacy mythics. They're a big , gaping wound in my collection. Only 58 to go . At the rate I'm going, that's another year.

    I'm crafting Origins mythics as well. Only 5 left to go. Then I'll craft the remaining 11 Origins rares.

    From there, I'll probably skip Legacy because I don't care about it and go for current set rares. Maybe dip a toe into HoD mythics and hope for Hour of Devastation.

    started with origins when it came out finished that and been working on other sets mostly ones that would stay in standard (i thought) so got all of kaladesh except exclusives from the invite challenge and aether revolt is almost done and all i have left is mythics and the ix sets and a buttload left from zen and soi barely even bothered honestly mostly because other than pig and deploy just arent that useful to me for the few event i can use them in.

    I tend to collect rares before going for mythics.  Rares tend to form a backbone for most decks moreso than mythics.

    I go for rares before mythics and start with Origins then other standard sets.

    I really want Hour of Devastation so I'm going for that. I try to go for the set that has the most cards I want that I need to craft.

    AKH rares
    Origins rares
    Origins Mythics (1 left, Erebos's Titan, but that's a low priority target for me)
    HOU rares (after the cost dropped)
    going to target XLN rares and mythics next, after the cost drops.  Just saving orbs for now.
    I did a few KLD/AER/Legacy rare and mythic pulls, but those are lower priority targets as well.  I might go after those last 4 Standard legal Uncommons that I'm missing sometime too.

    I don’t craft Legacy.  I have all the rares I want and I’m missing 81 mythics so it’s too much of a long shot to get the good ones.

    hear you there so many gold and mythics missing from legacy and so many i just could not use(and a few i could abuse like a readheaded stepchild lol)

    +1
    No point crafting Legacy since Legacy will always have cycling, and cycling already beats everything.

    I stopped crafting legacy too. Origins had been my first choice, now I'm actually already saving for the time when crafting costs for RIX drop

    I had some poor luck with XLN and RIX drops from.my purchases so have crafted Rares from these sets to have a better standard collection.

    Although I completed Origins, AKH and HOU with my hoarded dupes when crafting was introduced so I was prettty set set with the other standard sets.

    I have over 80 mythics to craft from Legacy as of now so won't bother unless I amass alot of orbs without better stuf to craft.

    I crafted: Origins, Legacy, KLD/AER (before rotation), HOU and am now tackling AKH. Then it’s IXL...
