Haze of Rage card art
Haze of Rage gives every creature you control +1/+0 until end of turn for each time it's been cast this turn — storm that pumps your board instead of burning faces. At one red mana base cost with buyback for two generic, it scales absurdly in the same shells that run Storm-Kiln Artist and Vadrik, Astral Archmage, where casting it four or five times in a turn ends the game on the spot.

Best Commanders

Commanders with the highest synergy

01
Vadrik, Astral Archmage

Vadrik, Astral Archmage

57.7% of decks · synergy 0.53

Vadrik, Astral Archmage reduces instant and sorcery costs based on his power, which means Haze of Rage can reach zero or one mana per cast — storm count climbs fast, buyback becomes trivial, and a single turn can pump your board by +5/+0 or more.

02
Balmor, Battlemage Captain

Balmor, Battlemage Captain

39.3% of decks · synergy 0.35

Balmor, Battlemage Captain gives creatures +1/+0 and trample whenever you cast an instant or sorcery, so each copy of Haze of Rage you cast stacks both Balmor's trigger and the spell's own pump — a short storm chain turns a modest board into a lethal alpha strike.

03
Bria, Riptide Rogue

Bria, Riptide Rogue

26.2% of decks · synergy 0.22

Bria, Riptide Rogue cares about casting instants and sorceries to grow her own power and enable connive effects, and Haze of Rage slots in as a late-game closer that converts a full hand of spells into a one-shot board-wide buff.

04
Magnus the Red

Magnus the Red

25.8% of decks · synergy 0.21

Magnus the Red creates Astartes Warrior tokens whenever you cast an instant or sorcery, so Haze of Rage does double duty — it generates bodies on the way up the storm count, then pumps all of them for a lethal swing on the same turn.

05
Narset, Enlightened Exile

Narset, Enlightened Exile

18.6% of decks · synergy 0.17

Narset, Enlightened Exile copies instants and sorceries she casts onto attacking creatures, meaning Haze of Rage cast off her ability can trigger its pump effect through every copy she generates, turning a wide attack into a self-reinforcing lethal threat.

Format Analysis

Where it lives, where it can’t

FormatVerdict
commander
legacy
modern
pioneer
standard
vintage
pauper
oathbreaker

Commander is where Haze of Rage actually lives — storm-count payoffs scale harder in a multiplayer game where you're incentivized to go off in one explosive turn, and the buyback clause means you never run out of ammunition mid-chain. In Legacy and Vintage it's legal but sees essentially no play, because those formats demand storm pieces that close the game outright rather than pump creatures that still need to connect. Modern is the same story: the card is legal but too slow and conditional compared to dedicated storm finishers. Haze of Rage is a Commander card wearing a Legacy legal stamp.

Price Context

Current price

$1.91 cheap tier

At $1.91, Haze of Rage sits in the cheap tier — low enough that there's no budget excuse to skip it in any deck that wants it. It sees narrow but dedicated play, so the price is stable rather than climbing; don't expect it to move much in either direction.
