Sighted-Caste Sorcerer gives your exalted creatures evasion — specifically, the ability to be blocked only by white and artifact creatures — which converts Rafiq of the Many's massive single-attacker damage into guaranteed hits against most boards. The cost is a two-mana 1/1 with no other upsides, so you're running it purely as a support piece in a dedicated exalted shell.

Rafiq of the Many
Rafiq of the Many already doubles down on exalted triggers and pumps a single attacker to enormous power; Sighted-Caste Sorcerer adds the evasion layer that makes those attacks connect, turning a threatening board state into an unblockable kill.

Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |

Sighted-Caste Sorcerer is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Vintage, Pauper, and Oathbreaker, but its playability is almost entirely Commander-specific — exalted as a theme has the critical mass it needs only in a 99-card singleton environment. In Pauper it's technically viable but exalted tempo decks don't have a real competitive foothold there. Modern and Legacy have enough interaction and speed that a 1/1 support creature with no enters-the-battlefield effect and no immediate board impact simply doesn't survive long enough to matter. Commander is where Sighted-Caste Sorcerer lives and dies.

Price Context
Current price
$0.11 bulk tier
At $0.11, Sighted-Caste Sorcerer is deep bulk — you're paying for cardboard and postage, not the card itself. Don't expect that to change; this is a narrow, tribe-specific support piece with no competitive crossover driving demand.
