Future Price of Dromoka's Command?

Economics forum

Posted on Oct. 12, 2015, 12:25 a.m. by MADMatt7777

So at the most recent Standard SCG open, GW Megamorphs 4 of the top 8, and 10 out of the top 32. Dromoka's Command is run as a four of in GW Megamorphs, and looks to be seated well for the Pro Tour. Atarka's Command trippled in price when RG Landfall got first at an SCG Event, and there was only 1 RG Landfall deck in that top 8. what are the chances of Dromoka's Command spiking like Atarka's Command? should i pick up a playset now or not?

I'm not sure how much it will spike, though there seems to be some big movement going on with it on TCG, as we speak 76 total prices, it was at 81 a minute and a half ago. Den Protector also only has a 11 sellers right now, so that is seeing the biggest movement next to that command.

Also I don't see it reaching prices of Atarka's Command since Atarka's is strictly better and is used as a 4 of in modern Burn in addition to its use in Standard. So all in all if your going to play with it get it now otherwise it may be a 3-5.00 increase for a short while unless it continues winning and being a 4of.

Autarkies' command is not strictly better, it is also not played in a lot of modern burn decks.

Also dromoka's command is one of the strongest sideboard options for GW decks in modern because it stops burn and Keranos, God of Storms.

Well, Dromoka's Command was included in a Clash Pack (Magic Origin's, I believe), so this would seem to indicate that its price will be somewhat less than Atarka's Command. Both are highly playable in Standard and very reasonably so, too, in Modern. Both of them will continue to fetch prices between $5 and $9, I expect. Atarka's Command is the higher of the two, but I think it should drop below $10 in the future.

I expect both to stay between $5 to $10.

It should be noted that Atarka's Command has far more eternal value due to modern burn alone. It definitely sees more play in modern than Dromoka.

Definitely. For sure. But the point is that dromoka's command is still really solid and does work.

True. Now if only I could find my Den Protector from the DTK prerelease... :(
