Sultai Runemark gives a creature +2/+2 and deathtouch as long as you control a black, green, or blue permanent — which in a Sultai shell is always. Three mana for a conditional aura is too slow when equipment and creatures do the same job without the enchantment risk.

Sultai Runemark is a bulk common in every format that matters, and the competition at three mana is brutal in all of them. In Commander, creature auras are already a liability since any removal on the enchanted creature turns your card into a two-for-one loss against you, and Sultai Runemark offers no protection against that. In Pauper it sees no meaningful play — deathtouch is available on the creatures themselves, and combat tricks outperform static auras at common. Competitive formats like Legacy and Modern simply don't want this effect at this cost.

At $0.07, Sultai Runemark is deep bulk — you'll find it in a common box before you find it on a wishlist. There's no price floor to worry about here; it holds its value the way any bulk common does, which is to say it doesn't.
