Forgotten Ancient Price

Updated 2026-09-02

Forgotten Ancient from Scourge is a Commander staple creature that accumulates a plus-one-plus-one counter for each spell cast by any player, then can redistribute those counters to any number of creatures at the beginning of each upkeep. The card is one of Commander's most efficient counter engines, growing to enormous size in multiplayer games and distributing that power across a team. The 90-day price decline is meaningful, suggesting the card is settling to a lower equilibrium from earlier elevated pricing. Forgotten Ancient has received reprints in Commander product, which has expanded supply and likely contributed to the price compression. Buyers considering this card should compare pricing across all available printings before choosing which version to acquire. The core Commander demand provides a durable floor, but the reprint history limits the ceiling for any specific printing including the Scourge original.
