Creature — Angel

Flying
Will of the council — When this creature enters, starting with you, each player votes for grace or condemnation. If grace gets more votes, each player returns each creature card from their graveyard to the battlefield. If condemnation gets more votes or the vote is tied, destroy all creatures other than this creature.

Magister of Worth card art
Magister of Worth lands and immediately forces a will vote — wrath the board or bring back everything from graveyards — and with Illusion of Choice or Tivit, Seller of Secrets on the battlefield, you control which outcome actually happens. Six mana for a 4/4 flyer with a guaranteed board-defining trigger is the kind of rate that earns its slot.

Tivit, Seller of Secrets

23.9% of decks · synergy 0.23

Tivit, Seller of Secrets generates multiple vote triggers per combat, and Magister of Worth becomes a one-sided board wipe or mass recursion engine when you're stacking three votes in your favor before opponents cast a single ballot.

Breena, the Demagogue

Breena, the Demagogue

18.0% of decks · synergy 0.17

Breena, the Demagogue thrives in a political table where vote manipulation wins games, and Magister of Worth provides a high-stakes swing moment — either clearing threats that outpace Breena's counters or refilling your board after a prior wrath.

11.8% of decks · synergy 0.11

Shadrix Silverquill decks lean on Orzhov value engines and flying threats, and Magister of Worth fits cleanly as both a finisher and a reset button that can clear the board before Shadrix closes out a stalled game.

Commander is where Magister of Worth actually lives — the will mechanic is designed for multiplayer politics, and the payoff scales directly with how many opponents are sitting across the table. In a vacuum the vote is fair, but any deck running Illusion of Choice or a second copy of the trigger via Tivit, Seller of Secrets turns it into a one-sided effect, which is exactly the kind of political leverage Commander rewards. Legacy and Vintage legality is technically on the books, but a six-mana 4/4 with a conditional trigger has no path to those formats when the competition is measured in two-mana cantrips and free spells. Oathbreaker is the one non-Commander format where it's worth a look, though the smaller starting hand size and faster clock make the six-mana investment harder to justify outside dedicated will-matters builds.
