Meteorite card art
Meteorite enters the battlefield tapped, produces any color of mana, and deals 2 damage to any target — five mana for a mana rock that doubles as a ping is a real cost. In fair Commander lists it's a slot that usually loses to cheaper rocks, but Ghostly Flicker loops and other blink engines turn each recast into repeatable damage, which is the only context where Meteorite earns its seat.

Format Analysis

Where it lives, where it can’t

FormatVerdict
commander
legacy
modern
pioneer
standard
vintage
pauper
oathbreaker

Meteorite is legal in Commander, Pauper, Pioneer, Modern, Legacy, Vintage, and Oathbreaker — but realistically it belongs to exactly two of those. In Pauper it sees niche play in blink-based control shells where the damage trigger is a win condition, not an afterthought. In Commander it shows up in Mizzix of the Izmagnus or Brago, King Eternal decks that loop artifacts for incremental value, and almost nowhere else — five mana is too steep for a vanilla rock in a format with Sol Ring on turn one. Everywhere else, Meteorite doesn't compete.

Price Context

Current price

$0.07 bulk tier

At $0.07, Meteorite is pure bulk — pick it up from a common box, not a store listing. There's no price floor to speak of, and its narrow application means demand will never push it out of that tier.
