Edge whitening, corner wear, and centering (how even the borders are on each side) are the raw ingredients of the condition estimate, so cropped edges mean a vaguer value range
These are very flavorful cards that are evocative not just of Final Fantasy , but of role-playing games in general, and they've been translated beautifully to Magic: The Gathering
English is typically the most popular and valuable, but Japanese sets tend to follow close behind, with some rare offerings even exceeding their English peers
Arms Scavenger is in this pile because its an average creature that can be removed very easily, and its spellbook only has mediocre equipment
You can counterbalance that risk by reanimating Bahamut instead, and thats where I expect the card to shine the brightest
