City of Traitors Price

Updated 2026-07-26

City of Traitors is one of the most powerful lands in competitive Magic, functioning as a fast-mana accelerant that defined Legacy and Vintage Prison strategies for decades. The card's history runs through Exodus (1998), where its original printing gave it the classic late-90s Magic aesthetic that collectors prize. Supply has historically been constrained: the card is not on the Reserved List, but its reprint history is sparse relative to the sustained demand from competitive players. Blue-less Prison strategies continue to use it, which creates a floor of competitive demand beneath the collector bid. Exodus is a small set from the Tempest block, which limits the original print run compared to core sets of the era. Price here is sensitive to Legacy metagame health. When Prison strategies gain tournament share, this card is one of the first to see renewed demand. Watch Legacy event coverage for the signal.
