Patriarch's Bidding Price

Updated 2026-08-20

Patriarch's Bidding from Onslaught is a tribal reanimation spell that functions as a mass graveyard recursion engine in the right deck. At its power level, returning every creature of a named type from all graveyards to the battlefield at sorcery speed is a game-altering effect that tribal Commander builds prize for its ceiling as a one-sided bomb when the naming advantage is held. Onslaught is a set from 2002 and print runs from that era are not large by modern standards. The card has not seen a major standalone reprint, keeping the Onslaught version as the primary market copy. With flat 7-day and 30-day readings, this is a stable, low-velocity position. Price discovery happens through periodic spikes when a tribal archetype enters a popularity cycle. Zombie and Elf tribal surges have both moved this card in prior cycles. Watch tribal Commander support announcements for signals.
