Mishra's Domination permanently steals any artifact or creature on the board — no sacrifice clause, no end-of-turn return — for five mana. That's a clean two-for-one at a cost that's only slightly above rate, and it's the kind of unconditional effect that wins games on the spot.

In Commander, Mishra's Domination is a legitimate threat-answer hybrid — stealing a Blightsteel Colossus or a Seedborn Muse and keeping it permanently is the kind of play that reshapes a game. The five-mana cost is comfortable in a format where games go long and value matters more than speed. In Legacy and Vintage the competition for five-mana sorceries is brutal and this doesn't make the cut, but in Pauper the unconditional permanent theft at common rarity is genuinely exceptional and worth building around.

Price Context
Current price
$0.07 bulk tier
At $0.07, Mishra's Domination sits firmly in bulk territory — you're paying for cardboard, not demand. That price is unlikely to spike unless a specific combo or commander archetype puts it on the radar, so picking up copies now costs essentially nothing.
