Drag to the Bottom is a board wipe that scales with your domain count, hitting every non-land permanent with -X/-X where X equals the number of basic land types you control — up to -5/-5 at full domain, which clears nearly every creature on the board. The cost is real: you need a five-color or near-five-color mana base to maximize it, and it does nothing to indestructible creatures or planeswalkers.

Drag to the Bottom is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Pioneer, Vintage, and Oathbreaker. Commander is where it does the most work — five-color decks and domain-matters builds like Atraxa, Praetors' Voice or The Prismatic Piper can routinely hit -5/-5, making it a one-sided sweeper in the right shell. In Modern and Pioneer, domain strategies exist but the competition from cheaper, more reliable sweepers is stiff, so Drag to the Bottom is a fringe consideration rather than a staple. Legacy and Vintage have access to so many faster, more efficient answers that it rarely sees play there.

Given its narrow home in domain-heavy decks, it tends to sit in budget-friendly territory — worth picking up if you're building toward full domain, but not a card that commands a premium.
