Crosis, the Purger Price

Updated 2026-07-18

Crosis, the Purger is one of the five elder dragons from the Invasion block, a legendary creature that triggers discard from an opponent's hand when it deals combat damage. The original Invasion dragon cycle occupied a formative place in Magic lore from 2000, appearing during the climax of the Phyrexian invasion narrative that defined years of Magic storyline. Crosis remains a viable Commander option for Grixis (blue-black-red) players who build around evasion-based discard themes. No price-change data is available, consistent with slow-moving older cards that trade irregularly. The Invasion printing carries collector preference for players who prize the original artwork over later reprints. Price stability for Invasion elder dragons is primarily a function of Commander demand, which for these creatures is modest but consistent. The narrative and aesthetic legacy of the five-dragon cycle sustains collector interest independent of competitive utility.
