Sensei's Divining Top Price

Updated 2026-07-22

Sensei's Divining Top from Champions of Kamigawa is one of the most format-defining artifacts in Magic's history, a one-mana artifact that lets its controller look at the top three cards of their library and rearrange them, or draw a card and return the Top to the library. The card is banned in Legacy due to infinite loops it enables with Counterbalance and the time-consuming play patterns it creates. It remains a Commander staple for decks that want persistent library manipulation at minimal mana investment. The Kamigawa original printing is the prestige collector version, and the 30-day appreciation reflects steady Commander and collector demand for original copies. Kamigawa-block uncommons that became format staples occupy a unique position: the original printing carries collector premium over reprints while remaining the target of players who prefer the source set's aesthetic.
