Drannith Magistrate

Creature · Human Wizard Game Changer
TLE set symbol, MythicAvatar: The Last Airbender Eternal#2Mythic

Most players read Drannith Magistrate as a cute hate bear. The real job is simpler and meaner: your opponents' commanders stop being castable. In a format built around one repeatable card in the command zone, that is a lot of tempo for {1}{W}.

The take

A two-drop that taxes the entire format's default plan, and it's much better in white stax than its price tag suggests.

Ranked around 769 on EDHRec at roughly $9.80

Plays well with

  • Archon of Emeria

    Both are cheap bodies that restrict what opponents can do, and Lavinia-style stax lists stack them so one shuts off the command zone while the other taxes the rest of the table's plays.

  • Heliod, Sun-Crowned

    Heliod often leads staxy decks built from disruptive creatures, and Magistrate is exactly the kind of cheap restriction piece those lists want to pile up.

  • Vesperlark

    Vesperlark can bring Magistrate back from the graveyard, so a removed copy comes back and the casting restriction returns.

Drannith Magistrate Price Summary

The benchmark price (cheapest playable nonfoil) is $9.86, down 0.2% over 7 days, up 4.6% over 30 days, up 1.9% over 90 days.
