All Is Dust clears every colored permanent on the board — creatures, enchantments, artifacts with colored identity, planeswalkers — for seven mana, and colorless decks keep everything they own. Running it outside a colorless shell is a genuine board wipe; inside one, it's one-sided annihilation that Ulalek, Fused Atrocity can copy for free.
Best Commanders
Commanders with the highest synergy
Ulalek, Fused Atrocity
Ulalek, Fused Atrocity triggers whenever you cast an Eldrazi spell, copying each other Eldrazi spell cast that turn — so casting All Is Dust under Ulalek means the board wipes twice before opponents can respond.
Herigast, Erupting Nullkite
Herigast, Erupting Nullkite reduces the cost of your first Eldrazi each turn, making All Is Dust as cheap as four mana, and since Herigast's permanents are colorless, it survives the sweep while the rest of the table doesn't.
Daretti, Scrap Savant
Daretti, Scrap Savant runs an artifact-heavy, colorless-leaning shell where All Is Dust functions as a one-sided reset — artifacts with no color identity are untouched, and Daretti himself is unaffected as long as you rebuild faster than opponents.
Urtet, Remnant of Memnarch
Urtet, Remnant of Memnarch leads an all-Myr, all-colorless creature base, so All Is Dust sweeps the opposition while leaving your entire board intact — exactly the asymmetry the deck wants.
Kruphix, God of Horizons
Kruphix, God of Horizons stockpiles colorless mana in the bank, making the seven-mana ask for All Is Dust trivially easy to hit, and the deity's indestructibility means Kruphix itself shrugs off the wipe entirely.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | legal |
| pioneer | not legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
All Is Dust is a Commander staple first and foremost — the format's multiplayer dynamics make a seven-mana one-sided sweeper worth the cost, especially in colorless and Eldrazi builds where it reads "destroy all opponents' permanents." In Legacy and Vintage, it's legal but rarely played; those formats move too fast for a seven-mana sorcery without an immediate win attached, and cheaper, more precise interaction dominates. Modern sees occasional colorless Eldrazi builds where All Is Dust acts as a late-game reset button, but it's a fringe inclusion rather than a staple. Pauper, Pioneer, and Standard are off the table entirely.

Price Context
Current price
$3.51 cheap tier
At $3.51, All Is Dust sits squarely in budget staple territory for what it does — a near-unconditional board wipe at this price is a strong buy for any colorless or Eldrazi Commander deck. It has been reprinted enough times to keep the floor low, and that price is unlikely to spike unless a breakout colorless commander reshapes the meta.
