Kruphix, God of Horizons
Legendary Enchantment Creature — God
Indestructible
As long as your devotion to green and blue is less than seven, Kruphix isn't a creature.
You have no maximum hand size.
If you would lose unspent mana, that mana becomes colorless instead.

Kruphix, God of Horizons converts every unspent mana into colorless mana that rolls over indefinitely — a permanent, uncapped mana bank that also shuts off maximum hand size. The cost is a five-mana god that does nothing the turn it lands and requires green and blue devotion to become a threat, but in any deck that already wants to stockpile mana, those drawbacks are background noise compared to what Jorn, God of Winter and similar engines do with the float.
Best Commanders
Commanders with the highest synergy
Jorn, God of Winter
Jorn, God of Winter untaps snow permanents on attack, generating mana surges that need somewhere to go — Kruphix, God of Horizons is the reservoir, banking that burst mana across turns so none of it bleeds into the end step.
Esika, God of the Tree
Esika, God of the Tree runs a legendary-dense, mana-hungry board, and Kruphix, God of Horizons lets that engine breathe by storing whatever mana Esika's gods and legends can't spend in a given turn rather than losing it.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |

| oathbreaker | legal |
Commander is where Kruphix, God of Horizons lives — 100-card games go long enough for a five-mana do-nothing-immediately enchantment creature to pay off, and the mana-banking effect compounds hard in the late game. Outside Commander, it sees negligible competitive play: Legacy, Vintage, Modern, and Pioneer all move too fast for a five-mana enchantment that requires two colors of devotion and provides no immediate board impact. Oathbreaker could theoretically use it as a planeswalker-support piece in a big-mana shell, but the format's compressed game length works against it the same way 60-card formats do.

Price Context
Current price
$4.09 cheap tier
At $4.09, Kruphix, God of Horizons sits at the low end of the mythic god cycle — accessible without a second thought for anyone building a Simic big-mana deck. Demand is steady enough that the price is unlikely to crater further, but it's not a card people are buying for speculation; it's just cheap enough that you grab a copy the moment you want it.
