Smothering Tithe Price
MARKET NOTE: SMOTHERING TITHE
Updated 2026-10-09
Smothering Tithe from Ravnica Allegiance is one of the most played white Commander cards in Magic's history. The enchantment forces opponents to pay two mana each time they draw a card or generates a Treasure token for its controller, making it both a mana accelerant and a tax effect that punishes the format's high card draw environment. Commander is a four-player format where opponents draw dozens of cards per game, which makes Smothering Tithe one of the most impactful white enchantments available. Original Ravnica Allegiance printings carry a first-print premium among collectors, and the card has been reprinted but demand has consistently absorbed new supply. This is a card with a Commander demand floor that shows no signs of softening: white Commander decks universally consider it, and the format's growth directly expands the buyer pool. Track Commander deck census data and format growth statistics as the primary demand indicators.
