Search the One Piece Card Game database for “Loki” before August 22, 2026, and you’d have come up empty. OP-17: The World’s Strongest Warriors changed that with a single card — OP17-119, a Black Secret Rare printed with the Giant / Elbaph type that puts Loki on cardboard for the first time.
He’s not the set’s only new face — OP-17 also introduced Rocks D. Xebec as a Leader and Secret Rare. Both of the set’s native Secret Rares debuted brand-new characters, which makes Loki one of the more closely watched pulls of the release.
OP-17: The World’s Strongest Warriors is built around the Elbaf arc and the Four Emperors, and released in Japan on August 22, 2026 (the English version released on August 28, 2026, at an MSRP of $4.99 per pack). Loki’s card slots directly into that arc’s theme through his Giant / Elbaph type tag and Black color.
This guide covers everything verified about OP17-119: both confirmed printings, what the card’s ability text actually says, how the numbers on it compare to a typical Cost 6 character, how it stacks up against OP-17’s other Secret Rare, and where to find the sealed product that contains it.
Loki has exactly one verified card number so far — OP17-119, a Black Secret Rare from OP-17: The World’s Strongest Warriors — confirmed in two versions: the base print and an alternate art (AA) parallel. It’s a Cost 6 / 8000 Power character with a Giant / Elbaph type tag, a Strike attribute, and an ability whose text states its own Cost is +12, while granting +3000 Power on the opponent’s turn, plus an on-play effect that K.O.s up to one opponent’s character with a total Cost of 4 or less. We don’t currently carry a single Loki card; the way to pull one is the OP-17 booster box, currently listed at ¥17,000 (~$116) (update: currently sold out — restock requests via Quick Order).

Every Verified Loki Card
As of this writing, Limitless TCG’s database lists exactly one Loki card number, confirmed in two versions:
| Card # | Version | Type / Rarity | Set | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| OP17-119 | Base | Character, Secret Rare | OP-17 — The World’s Strongest Warriors | Black, Cost 6 / Power 8000, Strike, Giant / Elbaph type |
| OP17-119 | Alternate Art (AA) | Character, Secret Rare | OP-17 — The World’s Strongest Warriors | Same stats and text as the base print, different artwork |
That’s a short list compared to established characters with years of prior sets behind them — but that’s expected for a character making his first appearance in the card game. As of this writing, Limitless lists a single printing plus its AA parallel; that could change with future sets, but it hasn’t yet.
One detail worth flagging up front: Loki is printed in Black, with a Giant / Elbaph type tag that ties directly into the Elbaf storyline thread running through the set.
Because both confirmed prints share the same card number, they’re functionally identical on the table — the base and AA versions play exactly the same way, with the same Cost, Power, and ability text. The only decision for a collector is which artwork you want in your binder, not which one performs better in a match.
The Base Secret Rare: OP17-119
The base print of OP17-119 is a Black character card with a Cost of 6 and 8000 Power, carrying the Strike attribute and a Giant / Elbaph type tag. It’s confirmed as a Secret Rare — the top rarity tier in the set, alongside just one other card (covered below).
The illustration is credited to Akanegumo. Beyond the artwork, what sets this printing apart from a typical Cost 6 character is the ability text, which we break down in detail in the next two sections — a self-imposed cost tax paired with a hard removal effect.
The Strike attribute puts Loki in the same combat-attribute bucket as many of the game’s brawler-type characters, which matters for any card effect that specifically checks for or boosts Strike-attribute characters. The Giant / Elbaph type tag is separate from the attribute — it identifies Loki’s in-story affiliation, and it’s the tag any future card built around the Giant or Elbaph type would need to reference to interact with him specifically.
The Alternate Art Parallel
Limitless TCG’s card page also lists an alternate art version of OP17-119, tagged ?v=1 on the source page. Stats and ability text are identical to the base print — only the artwork changes. This is the standard pattern for parallel prints in the One Piece Card Game: same card, same function on the table, different illustration.
Unlike Rocks D. Xebec’s OP17-118, which we cover below and which carries a third, manga-style parallel on top of its base and AA versions, Loki’s confirmed print run stops at two. If a manga-style Loki print exists, it hasn’t turned up on Limitless’s individual card page as of this writing.
What Loki’s Card Text Actually Does
OP17-119’s ability, translated from the card text, reads:
“This character’s Cost is +12. During your opponent’s turn, this character gets +3000 Power. [On Play] K.O. up to one of your opponent’s characters with a total Cost of 4 or less.”
Break that down piece by piece and a few things stand out:
- The cost line. The card is printed with a Cost of 6, but its own ability text states that this character’s Cost is +12. The card text doesn’t spell out beyond that what the adjusted Cost is used for — it’s a modifier to the character’s own Cost stat, not a description of extra DON!! paid from hand to play it.
- The defensive Power swing. 8000 Power on the board, rising to an effective 11000 during your opponent’s turn — a real jump for a card that’s already sitting at a Secret Rare power level.
- The removal effect. On play, it K.O.s up to one of your opponent’s characters, as long as that character’s total Cost is 4 or below. No trigger condition, no coin flip — if a qualifying target is in play, it’s gone.
Don’t take the “6 Cost” in the corner as the whole story. Loki’s own ability text also states this character’s Cost is +12 — the card carries both numbers.
Combined, the effect and the cost line define what kind of card this is: removal for up to one eligible target wrapped in a steep self-imposed cost penalty.
Put the numbers side by side and the design intent becomes easier to read. A vanilla Cost 6 character with no text would typically land in the 6000–7000 Power range with no built-in effect. Loki starts above that curve at 8000 Power and adds an on-play K.O. against up to one eligible opponent’s character — and the game balances that upside with the +12 cost line rather than with a coin flip, a resource cost paid from hand, or a condition on the removal target’s Power. It’s a straightforward trade: a steeper cost line for a card that does more once it’s down.
The removal condition itself is also worth reading precisely. “Total Cost of 4 or less” refers to the target’s own printed Cost, not the DON!! spent to play it or any temporary cost changes from other effects in play. That means Loki’s K.O. reliably answers early-game and mid-cost characters, but it has a hard ceiling — anything printed above Cost 4 is simply outside its range, no matter what else is happening on the board.
Loki vs. Rocks D. Xebec: OP-17’s Two Secret Rares
OP-17 shipped with exactly two native Secret Rares: OP17-118 (Rocks D. Xebec) and OP17-119 (Loki). Both debuted new characters in the same set, and both are worth knowing side by side if you’re deciding which chase card to build toward.
| Card | Color | Cost / Power | Confirmed versions |
|---|---|---|---|
| OP17-118 — Rocks D. Xebec | Blue | 10 / 12000 | Base + AA + manga/comic parallel (3 total) |
| OP17-119 — Loki | Black | 6 (+12 to play) / 8000 (+3000 on opponent’s turn) | Base + AA (2 total) |
Rocks D. Xebec also has his own Leader card in the same set (OP17-039), giving that side of the color spread two entry points into the same character. Loki, by contrast, is a character-only card with no matching Leader — his entire footprint in OP-17 is this one Secret Rare.
The two cards also solve different problems on the table. Xebec’s OP17-118 is a 10 Cost, 12000 Power finisher that draws a card and can put up to two Rocks Pirates characters into play on entry, so it’s built to close out a game once you’re already ahead on board and resources. Loki’s OP17-119 costs more relative to its own printed number but does its work immediately — removing a specific opposing character rather than building your own board. One is a payoff card; the other is an answer card, and OP-17 gave both of those roles a Secret Rare in the same set.
Print-run depth is the other clear difference: Xebec’s card has three confirmed versions against Loki’s two, meaning collectors chasing “every OP17-118” have one more target than collectors chasing “every OP17-119.” Neither number is unusual for a set’s Secret Rares — it’s simply a function of how many parallel treatments each card received.

How to Collect Loki Cards
As of this writing, we don’t have a single Loki card listed — OP17-119 is new enough that it hasn’t shown up as individual stock yet. The practical path right now is buying sealed OP-17 booster boxes and pulling your own copy, since that’s the only set that contains either the base or AA print.
That’s a different situation from most of the characters we cover in this series, where a card has had years and multiple sets to work its way into damaged-box or single-card listings. Loki has had one set and a few days on the market. If you’re specifically after this card rather than the box as a whole, understand that a sealed box is currently the only route we can point you to — there’s no shortcut through an older, cheaper printing the way there might be for a character with a longer print history.
If you’re chasing OP-17’s other headline pulls at the same time — Leader cards, Super Rares, or the manga-style parallels — our OP-17 chase cards guide rounds up the set’s other notable cards in one place. If a single Loki card isn’t listed when you check, you can request availability through our Quick Order page instead of waiting on a box pull.
