Choke Price

Updated 2026-09-27

Choke is one of green's most targeted hate cards against blue, an Island-punisher that has cycled through competitive sideboard rotation for two decades. The 8th Edition print is the most widely circulated version available in the non-foil market. This card holds value primarily as a metagame instrument. When blue decks dominate Legacy and Vintage, Choke demand ticks up. When the meta shifts, it retreats. The 30-day price has softened marginally, and the 90-day arc shows a more pronounced decline, consistent with reduced tournament demand rather than a fundamental shift in the card's utility. Supply is not scarce at this rarity tier. The collector appeal is modest because 8th Edition carries no premium frame or art variation. Think of this as a functional sideboard position with modest upside in a blue-heavy meta and limited floor support otherwise.
