Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger card art
Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger doubles your mana and cuts your opponents' in half simultaneously — that asymmetry wins games on its own, and it staples a hard-lock threat onto any green mana-sink shell running Ashaya, Soul of the Wild or Omnath, Locus of Mana. Eight mana is real, but the payoff is immediate and board-warping the turn it lands.

Commanders with the highest synergy

01
Omnath, Locus of Mana

Omnath, Locus of Mana

41.9% of decks · synergy 0.33

Omnath, Locus of Mana banks green mana between turns, and Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger doubles every land tap that feeds that pool — the two together produce a mana total that becomes lethal with any spell-based outlet.

02
Kona, Rescue Beastie

Kona, Rescue Beastie

40.8% of decks · synergy 0.31

Kona, Rescue Beastie cheats large creatures into play repeatedly, and Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger is exactly the kind of oppressive eight-drop that rewards a free deployment, locking opponents out before they can answer it.

03
Mayael the Anima

Mayael the Anima

29.0% of decks · synergy 0.28

Mayael the Anima digs for power-5-or-greater creatures at end of turn, and Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger qualifies at 7/6 while ensuring the mana to reactivate Mayael the following turn far outpaces anything opponents can muster.

04
Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider

Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider

32.9% of decks · synergy 0.24

Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider doubles counters and already punishes counter-based strategies, so pairing it with Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger adds a mana-denial layer that makes the deck nearly impossible to race once both are in play.

05
Kruphix, God of Horizons

Kruphix, God of Horizons

18.9% of decks · synergy 0.16

Kruphix, God of Horizons converts unused mana into a permanent colorless reservoir, and Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger accelerates that stockpile so aggressively that the deck routinely hits double-digit mana banks by mid-game.

Format Analysis

Where it lives, where it can’t

FormatVerdict
commander
legacy
modern
pioneer
standard
vintage
pauper
oathbreaker

Commander is where Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger lives — the singleton format's slower, multiplayer pace gives it time to land, and the mana-denial effect is maximally punishing when it hits three opponents at once rather than one. In Legacy and Vintage it's technically legal but never played; eight mana is a non-starter in formats where the game often ends on turn one or two, and the effect doesn't close out a game fast enough to justify the cost. Oathbreaker offers a slightly friendlier home in big-green shells, though the smaller life totals and faster games mean it needs to arrive with protection. Across every format, the honest assessment is the same: Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger is a Commander card through and through.

Budget Alternatives

Cheaper options that do most of the same work

Selvala, Heart of the Wilds and Mighty Servant of Leuk-o both generate outsized mana for far less investment, but neither taxes opponents — the mana-denial half of Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger has no true budget replacement. Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider at a similar price point captures some of the oppressive feel with a different axis, and Mana Flare or Vorinclex-adjacent effects like Infernal Darkness exist but either help the table or require a different color entirely; if halving opponents' mana is the goal, there's no honest substitute under five dollars.

Price Context

Current price

$15.29 mid tier

At $15.29, Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger sits in the mid tier — expensive enough to feel like a deliberate include, cheap enough that any serious green stompy or big-mana deck should own a copy. It has reprints that keep the ceiling suppressed, so don't expect the price to spike dramatically, but demand is steady enough that it won't crater either.
