Draco Price

Updated 2026-08-04

Draco from Planeshift is the highest casting-cost card ever printed in standard Magic, requiring sixteen mana of two each of every color. The card sees no competitive format play due to its prohibitive cost, but occupies a unique collector niche as a curiosity piece and as a component in cost-reduction combo decks that use effects to cheat Draco's enormous casting cost onto the battlefield. The card is up nearly 23% over the past month and added nearly 3.5% in the trailing week, a sustained move suggesting renewed speculative or collector interest. Planeshift was a small set printed in modest quantities, and Near Mint copies of this Rare are genuinely limited in circulation. The price movement may be linked to a specific combo discovery or Commander deck feature that uses Draco's high mana cost as a value driver. Watch buylist activity at major dealers and Commander content creation for any Draco-specific discussion that could be driving the renewed interest in this unusual card.
