Kaya, Intangible Slayer card art
Kaya, Intangible Slayer enters and immediately drains each opponent for 3 while drawing cards — seven mana buys a board-impacting threat, not just a planeswalker that sits there. The Luxior, Giada's Gift line aside, she earns her slot on raw enters-the-battlefield value alone.

Commander is where Kaya, Intangible Slayer actually belongs — the drain-and-draw trigger hits every opponent simultaneously, turning a single cast into a 9-life swing in a four-player pod while replacing herself in hand. In competitive 60-card formats like Modern, Pioneer, and Legacy, seven mana is a death sentence for a card that doesn't win the game on the spot, and she sees essentially no play there. Oathbreaker is a narrow exception where she can serve as the planeswalker commander herself, giving her a natural home that sidesteps the cost problem by making her the centerpiece.

Price Context

Current price

$0.38 bulk tier

At $0.38, Kaya, Intangible Slayer is firmly bulk — a seven-mana planeswalker with limited competitive reach rarely climbs out of that tier. The price is stable and unlikely to move without a Commander precon reprint or a sudden spike in Orzhov superfriends popularity.
