Will of the Naga taps all creatures an opponent controls and prevents them from untapping next turn — a two-turn lockout on a single player for five mana. That effect is real, but five mana for single-target stasis that does nothing to the board state permanently makes it a fringe include at best.

In Commander, Will of the Naga is a niche combat trick — it blanks one player's board for two attack steps, which matters most in decks that need a specific window to close out a game. Pauper is the format where it has the most realistic home, since the card pool for this effect is shallower and five mana is more acceptable in a slower environment. In Legacy, Modern, and Pioneer, it's simply too slow and too narrow; no competitive deck is spending five mana on a sorcery that doesn't advance the board or generate card advantage. Vintage follows the same logic — the format is too fast for Will of the Naga to matter.

Price Context
Current price
$0.04 bulk tier
At $0.04, Will of the Naga is deep bulk — you're paying for the cardboard, not the effect. It holds no meaningful financial value and never will, so the only reason to pick it up is if the effect fits your specific deck.
