Withered Wretch Price

Updated 2026-08-23

Withered Wretch from Legions is one of the original repeatable graveyard exile effects on a creature body, and its appeal to Commander deckbuilders has kept it relevant long past the competitive era that gave rise to it. As a 2/2 Zombie Cleric that exiles a card from any graveyard for one black mana at instant speed, the Wretch hits the threshold of usefulness that keeps Commander players returning to it in graveyard-heavy metas. Legions was a short-printed set with a smaller player base than core Magic releases of its era, giving originals a supply constraint that most players underestimate. The price data shows consistent mild negative pressure across all three windows: a slow, steady contraction rather than a sharp event. That pattern is consistent with casual selling from older collectors rather than a demand-side collapse. The Wretch has no Reserved List protection, so any reprint cycle remains a latent risk.
