Root Maze Price

Updated 2026-08-04

Root Maze from 10th Edition is a Rare enchantment that causes all lands and artifacts to enter the battlefield tapped, slowing decks that depend on efficient mana development. The card is a Legacy fringe piece in green hate strategies and a Commander staple in prison-style decks that tax opposing mana. The card is up over 10% in the past month with no week-over-week movement, suggesting a repricing event followed by consolidation at the new level. Root Maze has not been frequently reprinted, which keeps supply tighter than most core set rares from this era. The 10th Edition printing uses the white-border core set treatment; the black-border Tempest original commands a higher collector premium, but both have benefited from the same underlying demand driver. Commander and Legacy demand for taxing effects remains consistent, and Root Maze occupies a specific niche within that category that few other cards can replicate at the same mana cost. Watch for any supplemental reprint as the primary headwind to the current price level.
