Expedited Inheritance turns a board wipe like Blasphemous Act into a draw engine — every opponent who loses a creature replaces it with a card for you. The catch is a three-mana sorcery-speed setup, which means it's a pre-combat investment, not a reactive tool; Wayta, Trainer Prodigy lists run it because the payoff in creature-heavy pods is immediate and lopsided.

Wayta, Trainer Prodigy triggers constantly off fight mechanics, and Expedited Inheritance converts every opponent's creature death — from fights, pings, and incidental board wipes — into raw card advantage that snowballs the engine further.

Expedited Inheritance is a Commander card through and through — the effect scales directly with the number of opponents and the density of creatures on a shared board, neither of which exists in one-on-one formats. In Legacy, Modern, Pioneer, and Standard it's a three-mana sorcery that draws zero cards until an opponent's creature dies, which is a losing proposition against a clock. Commander is where the math flips: three opponents losing five creatures each in response to a single board wipe can net eight or more cards off one setup piece. Oathbreaker sits somewhere in between, and whether it's worth the slot depends entirely on how creature-heavy the local meta runs.

Current price
$0.33 bulk tier
At $0.33, Expedited Inheritance is firmly bulk — an easy inclusion that asks nothing of your budget. Bulk enchantments with narrow applications rarely climb unless a new commander warps the metagame around them, so don't expect movement; just pick one up and slot it in.
