Shadowborn Apostle (685) Price

Updated 2026-07-08

Shadowborn Apostle in its numbered Secret Lair printing carries a dedicated Commander-driven demand base that few single-card positions can replicate. Shadowborn Apostle is a one-mana Human Cleric with a unique deckbuilding rule: any number may be included in a Commander deck. Players running Shadowborn Apostle tribal strategies need six or more copies in a single deck, which concentrates buying demand from a specific and enthusiastic Commander audience. Serial number 685 places this in the numbered tier of Secret Lair production, adding collector premium above the general run. Thirty-day price data shows a meaningful upward move, consistent with ongoing Commander demand and collector interest in the premium version of a card with unusual deckbuilding rules. Supply is fixed from the original Secret Lair release. The overlap of competitive Commander play demand and numbered collector status creates a resilient demand base for this version.
