Strike It Rich card art
Strike It Rich makes a Treasure on the spot for one red mana, then flashbacks for one red mana — two artifacts, two spell-count triggers, one card. Spell-copy decks like Krark, the Thumbless // Sakashima of a Thousand Faces and storm engines like Thousand-Year Storm treat it as a two-for-one that costs effectively nothing, and that's exactly as broken as it sounds.

01
Krark, the ThumblessSakashima of a Thousand Faces

Krark, the Thumbless // Sakashima of a Thousand Faces

71.7% of decks · synergy 0.59

Strike It Rich is a staple here because each cast — original and flashback — is a fresh flip for Krark, the Thumbless // Sakashima of a Thousand Faces, meaning two cheap spells become up to four Treasure triggers and a pile of copies before you've spent significant mana.

02

Ral, Monsoon Mage

65.7% of decks · synergy 0.53

Ral, Monsoon Mage cares about the third spell each turn, and Strike It Rich with flashback is effectively two spells on the cheap, reliably pushing Ral's storm count toward the threshold that flips him and starts dishing out free damage.

03
Rionya, Fire Dancer

Rionya, Fire Dancer

58.9% of decks · synergy 0.52

Rionya, Fire Dancer rewards stacking instant and sorcery casts before combat, and Strike It Rich contributes two spell triggers at minimal cost while leaving behind Treasures to pay for the creature copies Rionya makes.

04
Prismari, the Inspiration

Prismari, the Inspiration

58.6% of decks · synergy 0.46

Prismari, the Inspiration wants cheap spells that keep the instant-and-sorcery count climbing, and Strike It Rich fills both roles — it's a mana-positive spell early and a storm-count booster late when you flashback it for free value.

05

Urabrask

51.4% of decks · synergy 0.44

Urabrask taxes opponents on every spell while rewarding you for casting cheaply and often; Strike It Rich slides under that tax entirely and converts into Treasures that fund the next impulsive draw trigger without bleeding resources.

In Commander, Strike It Rich is a build-around piece, not a general-include — it earns its slot in spell-copy, storm, and artifact-token decks where every cast matters and Treasures convert directly into more spells. In Legacy and Vintage, the card is legal but sees almost no play; those formats have faster and more powerful storm infrastructure, and a single Treasure doesn't move the needle against Force of Will. Modern is where Strike It Rich has seen the most competitive exploration, slotting into Breach-style combo and storm shells that need cheap, graveyard-accessible red spells to fuel their counts. Pioneer and Standard legality is absent, so those player bases can stop here.
