Mistfire Weaver card art
Mistfire Weaver puts a morph creature back in your hand and replaces itself with a card draw the moment it hits play face-down under Kadena, Slinking Sorcerer — that's a free bounce and a free card stapled to a 2/2. The four-mana unmorph cost is the ceiling, not the floor; you're playing it for the flip trigger, not the body.

Kadena, Slinking Sorcerer draws a card off the first morph each turn, which means Mistfire Weaver entering face-down is already a cantrip before you ever pay the unmorph — bounce a morph to hand, redeploy it, and run the engine again.

Mistfire Weaver is a Commander card through and through. In 60-card formats like Modern and Pioneer it's legal but competes against tempo pieces that generate far more immediate impact for the same or less mana, so it sees essentially no play there. Legacy and Vintage offer no morph synergy infrastructure that would make it worthwhile. Commander is where Mistfire Weaver earns its slot: morph-matters builds, especially under Kadena, Slinking Sorcerer, use the bounce effect as repeatable setup — flicker a morph, retrigger an enters-the-battlefield ability, or protect a key creature from a wrath.

Price Context

Current price

$0.13 bulk tier

At $0.13, Mistfire Weaver is deep bulk — the kind of card you pick out of a dollar box or grab as a throw-in. That price is stable because demand is narrow and supply is plentiful; don't expect movement in either direction.
