Rakdos the Defiler Price

Updated 2026-10-11

Rakdos the Defiler from Dissension is one of the original Ravnica legendary Demons, a colossal flying creature whose attack forces its controller to sacrifice half their permanents while compelling the defending player to sacrifice half their non-Demon permanents. The asymmetric sacrifice requirement makes it a dramatic centerpiece in Commander builds that welcome self-sacrifice or that blank the cost through specific permanent types. The Dissension printing is the original and only core printing of Rakdos the Defiler, making it the definitive version for collectors and players alike. Price data shows a positive gain in both the 7-day and 30-day windows, with those figures identical, pointing to a concentrated recent move. The 90-day figure shows a net decline, meaning the card was priced higher at the start of the quarter before retreating. The current pricing reflects a partial recovery from that earlier high.
