Short answer: the number of Light and Dark nat 5 monsters (LD5) sets the price of a Summoners War account. Across 1,133 completed account sales, each extra LD5 added about 50% to the price, and an account with 4–5 LD5 sold for about 4 times one with one or two. Lucifer alone roughly tripled the price of a comparable account, and Global server accounts sold for about 44% more than Europe ones, though they took twice as long to sell.
This is METAMMO research based on 1,133 completed Summoners War account sales across major marketplaces, April to October 2026. Every figure is relative: it says how much more or less an account sells for, not what it costs. Published 20 October 2026. Accounts for sale are in the Summoners War catalog.
Factors ranked by effect on price
Each effect is measured with the other factors held equal: the server effect compares accounts with the same LD5 count and the same named monsters. The 95% range shows how sure the estimate is.
| Factor | Effect on price | 95% range | Sales in group |
|---|---|---|---|
| Each extra LD5 (listings stating a count) | +50% | +44% to +56% | 421 |
| 6–9 LD5 (vs 1–2) | +1,285% (about 14x) | +924% to +1,773% | 43 |
| 4–5 LD5 (vs 1–2) | +300% (about 4x) | +209% to +418% | 69 |
| 3 LD5 (vs 1–2) | +112% | +70% to +164% | 123 |
| Lucifer (Light Demon) on the account | +206% (about 3x) | +162% to +257% | 169 |
| Velaska on the account | +56% | +14% to +114% | 45 |
| Arena or RTA rank stated | +51% | +17% to +96% | 76 |
| Global server (vs Europe) | +44% | +22% to +71% | 155 |
| Asia server (vs Europe) | No measurable difference | −33% to +33% | 29 |
| Sold as a "starter" or fresh account | −41% | −50% to −31% | 117 |
| Summoning scrolls listed | No measurable effect (+6%) | −9% to +23% | 194 |
Ranked by strength: the LD5 count first, then Lucifer, then the server, arena rank and Velaska. Scrolls listed in the title did not raise the price.
LD5 count: each one adds about half
Among listings that state how many LD5 the account has, each extra one added about 50%; among accounts with three or more the step was about 42%. Accounts with ten or more LD5 were rare (22 sales) and sold for around 20 times a one-or-two LD5 account, but that group is too small for a precise figure. Our monster list shows which LD5 matter in the current meta.
Server: Global pays more, Europe sells faster
Most accounts sold were on Europe (84%), with Global at 14%. Global accounts sold for about 44% more with the same monsters, but the median Global account took 26 days to sell against 13 days on Europe. Asia showed no clear price difference from Europe on 29 sales.
How fast Summoners War accounts sell
The median account sold about two weeks after it was listed. Accounts with 4–5 LD5 and with ten or more sold fastest, in about 8 days; accounts with one to three or with six to nine LD5 took 14–16 days.
Methodology
- Sample. 1,133 completed Summoners War account sales with a known server, 2 April – 19 October 2026. 37% of the listings stated an LD5 count; the per-LD5 effect uses those 421.
- What counts as a sale. A single-account listing that closed and was not relisted by the same seller within ten days.
- Removed. Services, random-account and bundle offers, and placeholder prices.
- Parsing. LD5 count, server, Lucifer and Velaska, arena or RTA rank, starter wording, scrolls, nat 5 counts and rune mentions were read from listing titles in English and Russian.
- Model. Log-linear regression of sale price on these factors plus the month of sale, with heteroskedasticity-robust (HC3) standard errors. An effect is exp(coefficient) − 1. The model explains about half of the variation in price (R² 0.49): titles describe a Summoners War account less fully than its rune and monster screens.
- Reporting rule. We state an effect as a finding only when p < 0.05 and the group has at least 30 sales.
- Limitations. Prices are the listed price when the sale closed, not any discount agreed in chat. Rune quality and speed are rarely stated in titles, so they are not measured here even though buyers judge them. Some closed listings were withdrawn rather than sold. The effects show association, not cause.
What we could not confirm
- Rune quality and speed: only 22 sales mentioned runes at all. They pointed to a large premium, but the group is too small to state one.
- Nat 5 counts (such as "100+ nat 5"): stated in too few listings.
- Arena rank held in the full sample but was not firm among listings that also state an LD5 count, so treat the +51% with care.
What to check when buying a Summoners War account
- The LD5 count, in the monster box. It is what the price rests on. Ask for a recording of the box filtered to Light and Dark nat 5s.
- Lucifer, if claimed. He moves the price more than any other single monster in the data.
- The server. Global, Europe and Asia accounts are separate. Pick the one you will play on.
- Runes and speed. Not priced in titles, but they decide how usable the monsters are. Ask for rune screens and the speed of key monsters.
- The Hive account. Email change and removal of any old logins. See the Summoners War buying guide.

Frequently asked questions
What affects the value of a Summoners War account the most?
The number of Light and Dark nat 5 monsters. In 1,133 completed sales each extra LD5 added about 50%, and 4–5 LD5 sold for about 4 times a one-or-two LD5 account.
Is Lucifer worth more on a Summoners War account?
Yes. Accounts with Lucifer sold for about 3 times comparable accounts without him, the largest effect of any single monster we measured.
Are Global accounts worth more than Europe accounts?
Yes, about 44% more with the same monsters. They also took longer to sell: a median of 26 days against 13 on Europe.
Do summoning scrolls add value to a starter account?
Not measurably. Accounts listing scrolls sold for about the same as those without, and accounts sold as "starter" or fresh sold for about 41% less than comparable played accounts.
