If you want the sealed product, the OP-16 The Time of Battle booster box (aggiornamento: esaurito — richiedi il riassortimento via Quick Order) is the starting point. The buying section below covers the rest.

Which Ace OP16 cards exist in the set?

The official card list shows four Portgas.D.Ace card numbers in OP-16, and two of them also have a parallel art version. Here is how they compare, using the printed data from the official card list.

All five share the name Portgas.D.Ace and the Special attribute. Three colors appear across them: Red, Blue and Black.

What does Ace OP16-001 Leader do?

Ace OP16-001 is a red Leader with Life 5 and 5000 power, and it gives Rush to a big Whitebeard Pirates or Monkey.D.Luffy Character. Its type is Whitebeard Pirates.

The printed effect is [Activate: Main] [Once Per Turn]: up to 1 of your [Monkey.D.Luffy] Characters, or up to 1 of your Characters with a type including “Whitebeard Pirates” that has 8000 power or more, gains [Rush] during this turn.

How to read it: the effect picks one target each turn. The Leader’s printed stats are 5000 power and no counter value, and the effect works on your Characters. The 8000-power condition applies only to the Whitebeard Pirates branch. The Luffy branch has no power requirement. For the other OP-16 Leaders, see the OP-16 Leaders Guide.

What do Ace OP16-049 and OP16-094 do?

OP16-049 is a Blue Common that draws a card by resting itself, and OP16-094 is a Black Uncommon that makes your opponent trash 2 cards when it is K.O.’d.

OP16-049 (C, Blue, Cost 3). Its types are Impel Down and Whitebeard Pirates. The effect is [Activate: Main]: you may rest this Character, then draw 1 card. It has no printed power and a 1000 counter.

OP16-094 (UC, Black, Cost 4). Its types are Land of Wano and Spade Pirates, with 5000 power and a 1000 counter. [On K.O.] makes your opponent trash 2 cards from their hand. [Activate: Main] [Once Per Turn] gives up to 1 rested DON!! card to 1 of your {Land of Wano} type Leader or Character cards.

These two are lower-rarity prints of the same character. They are the Ace cards for collectors who want each card number, not only the top rarity.

What does the Ace OP16-118 Secret Rare do?

OP16-118 is a red Cost 5 Character with 6000 power that boosts counters and digs for Luffy or Whitebeard Pirates cards. It is listed as the debut of this Ace in the official English product page as OP16-118 Portgas.D.Ace (SEC).

Printed effect: the counter of all your Character cards with 8000 power in your hand becomes +2000. [On Play]/[On K.O.]: look at 5 cards from the top of your deck, reveal up to 1 [Monkey.D.Luffy] or up to 1 card with a type including “Whitebeard Pirates”, add it to your hand, then place the rest at the bottom of your deck in any order. Its type is Whitebeard Pirates, with a 1000 counter.

The 8000-power wording appears on both the Leader OP16-001 and OP16-118, and both refer to Whitebeard Pirates. OP16-118 sits next to OP16-119 Marshall.D.Teach as the featured Secret Rares on the official Asia-English page.

Which Ace versions exist: parallel art and SP?

The official card list shows parallel art versions for OP16-001 and OP16-118, plus a parallel-art SP CARD numbered ST15-005 that is listed in the OP-16 series.

A parallel version shares its card number and printed effect with the regular card, so the effect text does not tell them apart. The official list gives no separate rarity name for the parallel versions beyond the base rarity, so use the card image to tell versions apart.

ST15-005 is different: it has its own number and its own effect. If your Leader’s type includes “Whitebeard Pirates”, it gains [Rush]. Once per turn, if it would be removed from the field by your opponent’s effect, you may give it -2000 power during this turn instead. It is Red, Cost 5, 6000 power and a 1000 counter. The parallel art listings are collected in One Piece OP-16 The Time of Battle: Parallel, SP and Secret Rare List.

How do you check an Ace OP16 listing?

Match four things to the official list: the card number, the rarity, the version, and the language edition.

• Card number: OP16-001, OP16-049, OP16-094, OP16-118 or ST15-005 are the Ace numbers in the official card list.
• Rarity: L, C, UC, SEC or SP CARD must match the table above.
• Version: regular or parallel art. The card number is the same for both, so the listing must state which one.
• Edition: this guide covers the Japanese edition. The English version is a separate release.
• Stats: color, cost and power should match the printed data, for example Blue Cost 3 for OP16-049 and Black Cost 4 for OP16-094.

Where does Ace sit in the OP16 set?

Ace has a Leader card, OP16-001 (L), and a Secret Rare, OP16-118 (SEC). The set has 126 card types plus 1 DON!! card, and six Leaders: OP16-001 Portgas.D.Ace, OP16-022 Monkey.D.Luffy, OP16-041 Buggy, OP16-060 Sengoku, OP16-079 Yamato and OP16-080 Marshall.D.Teach, according to the official Asia-English page. The rarity breakdown is Special Card 6, Treasure Rare 1, Leader 6, Secret Rare 2, Super Rare 10, Rare 26, Uncommon 30, Common 45 and DON!! 1. Ace appears at the rarities L, C, UC and SEC, plus the SP CARD numbered ST15-005. For the broader chase picture, see The Time of Battle One Piece Chase Cards.
