Settle Beyond Reality exiles a creature and puts a token onto the battlefield — two board-state moves stapled to one spell, which is the whole argument for running it. The cost is real: five mana at sorcery speed is slow, and Preston, the Vanisher is the commander that makes this worthwhile by turning the enters-the-battlefield trigger into a free 2/2 illusion.

Settle Beyond Reality is a Commander card — the five-mana sorcery speed that would get it laughed out of Legacy and Modern is tolerable in a 40-life multiplayer game where tempo trades are less punishing. In Pauper it's legal but outclassed by cheaper common removal that doesn't ask you to tap out on turn five. Commander is where the enters-the-battlefield synergies and the value of a tuck effect justify the investment, particularly in white blink and flicker shells that can extract extra mileage from the creature you put into play.

Current price
$0.13 bulk tier
At $0.13, Settle Beyond Reality is deep bulk — the kind of card you pull from a box rather than order. That price is stable by default; there's no meaningful demand spike coming unless a high-profile Preston, the Vanisher list pushes it into the spotlight.
