Obscura Storefront

Land

When this land enters, sacrifice it. When you do, search your library for a basic Plains, Island, or Swamp card, put it onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle and you gain 1 life.

Obscura Storefront card art
Obscura Storefront enters tapped and puts a land from your hand onto the battlefield tapped — netting you a free land drop at the cost of two slow turns. That tempo hit is real, but in blink and landfall strategies, particularly anything running Scaretiller or Aminatou, Veil Piercer, the repeated triggers make the drag worthwhile.

Best Commanders

Commanders with the highest synergy

01
Aminatou, Veil Piercer

Aminatou, Veil Piercer

44.6% of decks · synergy 0.35

Aminatou, Veil Piercer's blink effects reset Obscura Storefront's enters-tapped clause and retrigger the land-deposit ability repeatedly, turning a one-shot land cheat into a recurring engine.

02
Kamiz, Obscura Oculus

Kamiz, Obscura Oculus

37.3% of decks · synergy 0.28

Kamiz, Obscura Oculus runs the Obscura color identity by default, and Obscura Storefront slots in as a mana-fixer that smooths out the three-color base while supporting any landfall or ETB subtheme the deck leans on.

03
Minthara, Merciless Soul

Minthara, Merciless Soul

27.5% of decks · synergy 0.24

Minthara, Merciless Soul rewards permanents entering the battlefield, and Obscura Storefront triggers that payoff twice on the same turn — once for itself, once for the land it deposits.

04
Gogo, Master of Mimicry

Gogo, Master of Mimicry

23.9% of decks · synergy 0.23

Gogo, Master of Mimicry copies permanents and benefits from stacking ETB triggers, making Obscura Storefront a cheap, repeatable source of double-entry value whenever Gogo's copy effect resets it.

05
Bane, Lord of Darkness

Bane, Lord of Darkness

25.5% of decks · synergy 0.16

Bane, Lord of Darkness runs a wide Esper permanent base, and Obscura Storefront fills the dual role of color fixer and fodder for any trigger or sacrifice outlet that rewards permanents entering or leaving.

Format Analysis

Where it lives, where it can’t

FormatVerdict
commander legal
legacy legal
modern legal
pioneer legal
standard not legal
vintage legal
pauper legal
oathbreaker legal

Obscura Storefront is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Pioneer, Pauper, Vintage, and Oathbreaker — broad access, but it only earns a slot in Commander. In Pauper it's technically playable but too slow for a format where tempo is everything. In Modern and Pioneer, a land that costs two turns of full production is a non-starter outside of extremely narrow combo shells that almost certainly prefer fetchlands or other fixing. Commander is where Obscura Storefront actually lives: the 100-card singleton format needs fixing across three-color piles, the slower pace absorbs the tempo cost, and blink commanders turn the ETB into a repeatable effect rather than a one-off.

Price Context

Current price

$0.37 bulk tier

At $0.37, Obscura Storefront is bulk — you're picking it out of a commons box, not budgeting for it. That price is stable; it sees just enough Commander play to keep it from hitting pure bulk floor, but it will never be a financially significant card.
