Wilds of Eldraine brought with it a sweet new Standard format thanks to an all-new rotation that occurred with the set. However, it also brought with it something a little more fun: a bonus sheet! Bonus sheets started to become all the rage starting with Strixhaven: School of Mages' Mystical Archives and it continued through up to here.

With this set, there was a minor focus on enchantments thanks to the innovation of roles and the bargain mechanic that coincided with them. Thanks to this, Wizards opted to innovate with the bonus sheet and stuff it full of powerful enchantments. There was no shortage of great choices, which included 15 awesome mythics. This set provided an absolute murderer's row of epic enchantments, so it's going to be extra fun getting to rank them all this time around.

Let's not waste any time and get right to the rankings!

15. Greater Auramancy

Greater Auramancy has the same problem many cards from the Lorwyn-Shadowmoor era do: there simply wasn't very much of them to go around. As a result, this made any remotely Commander playable cards rather unobtainable. This printing helped bring Greater Auramancy's price down a solid amount, but it's quite easily the least substantial on this list. That just goes to show you how strong this list is, though, when a card that happens to be this strong is in dead last!

14. Repercussion

Yet another victim of low supply driving price pretty heavily, Repercussion had only really seen one major printing in Urza's Destiny. There was a Secret Lair drop as well, but those are largely minor in their impact. In combination with those two reprints pretty close to one another, though, Repercussion's priced crashed as its demand settled, making it a more niche card among this list of greats.

13. Kindred Discovery

This card remains a pretty huge option for Commander. Sadly, though, it wasn't quite so in demand when it was reprinted here. You see, it had just seen a substantial reprint in Commander Legends: Battle for Baldur's Gate the year before. As a result, it wasn't as hot as many other cards on this list, though it was still great for players to get more copies.

12. Bitterblossom

Now we get into some of the real heat, where it's just hit after hit all the way down from here! Bitterblossom - once the bane of Standard and banned for a time in Modern - looks a lot more tame nowadays. Nevertheless, its high playability in Commander and Cube has kept its demand pretty high for years, and getting more copies into players' hands is always welcome.

11. Sneak Attack

Speaking of Commander and Cube favorites, it's hard to not mention just how awesome the Sneak Attack experience is - at least for the one casting it. It lets you put huge creatures into play for next to nothing and massacre your opponents with it. Not only is it a casual all-star, but it's a classic favorite of Legacy as well. The only thing keeping it a bit lower on this list is the fact that it was printed earlier in the year with Dominaria Remastered, but even then it's still an excellent inclusion.

10. Blood Moon

Blood Moon remains about as evergreen of a Constructed staple as you could hope for. If you play formats like Modern and Legacy, you pretty much need copies of it for certain decks. This has led to it receiving no shortage of reprints, but another here is excellent. Both versions of the reprint here provided some great new art, which proved quite welcome as the card hadn't received fresh art in a few years and the options here were excellent.

9. Grave Pact

This is the first of several cards on this list that sadly get knocked down a peg or two because of their inclusion in Commander Masters. The proximity to this release really undermined how cool some of these reprints ultimately were. Grave Pact in particular really suffered perhaps the most from this. The card was useful pretty much exclusively in sacrifice decks, and the double whammy of reprints massacred the price thanks to a rise in availability. Still, in the right deck, it's hugely useful and the price has since rebounded, but at the time it felt like a much more ho-hum inclusion than it might otherwise have been.

8. Omniscience

By this point, Omniscience had managed to be printed enough times that it didn't seem to be that impressive when it was printed once more here. It's too expensive to be a serious staple and most competitive decks only ran singleton copies for decks like Pioneer Lotus Field Combo. However, it proved to be a blessing when Omniscience was reprinted again in Foundations and raised demand as players found new ways to abuse it in Standard. As a result, the additional injection here turned out to be extremely timely, even it seemed underwhelming at the start.

7. Defense of the Heart

This is probably one of the least high profile cards of the set that was begging for a reprint. Past this point, we're going to get into some real heavy hitters, but there's no denying that there was some real demand for this card at the time. With only a handful of small reprints from a judge promo, The List, and a Secret Lair drop since its original printing in Urza's Legacy, this sweet way to cheat big creatures into play was hurting for a real reprint. Putting more copies in players' hands only fueled the demand further, making it absolutely one of the better options, even if it was seen as somewhat lesser at the time.

6. Necropotence

I remember a time where Necropotence could be had for about $5. Even when it was reprinted in Eternal Masters and Iconic Masters, the card rarely went over $10. Those days are long behind us, though, and the constant demand for powerful Commander cards is strong - particularly among the cEDH crowd who love to abuse this card. As a result, it was quite expensive prior to the reprint here, making it super timely - and extra fun for Arena players once the Timeless format was introduced.

5. Land Tax

Land Tax represented another of the cards doubled up on from Commander Legends. Unlike Grave Pact, however, this card is quite a bit more universally useful so long as the deck it's used in is playing basic lands. Despite the regular play in Commander and Cube, this one felt a bit rough as the card had seen numerous reprints prior to this one. Nevertheless, the high casual demand still kept it a chase card from the set and a great inclusion, even if the reprints came a bit too close to one another for some players' liking.

4. Smothering Tithe

Alongside another major card which may or may not be coming up next, Smothering Tithe was the poster child for the issues of doubling up with Commander Masters. No one was complaining about getting more copies into players' hands - it's a staple for a reason, after all! However, Commander Masters already was going over like a lead balloon upon release, and several of the high profile cards like this being reprinted here made it look so much worse. But hey, who can complain about more copies of Smothering Tithe being put into the hands of players? Their local playgroups, maybe, but that's a them problem.

3. Doubling Season

Doubling Season was the card that made people groan the most among the Commander Masters double-ups. Prior to its reprint in that set, Doubling Season was creeping up over $100 a pop. It still held pretty strong with the Commander Masters reprint but this one made it really sting when players felt the expensive cost of those boosters. Absolutely not a soul complained about the shocking amount of price decrease that came with this card's reprint here given how red hot it is in Commander. Still, it felt weird, even if it was one of the hottest cards of the set by a wide margin.

2. Parallel Lives

It feels weird and somewhat surreal to put Parallel Lives above Doubling Season, but here we are. Doubling Season had several printings even before the Commander Masters reprint, but its demand was simply that high. By contrast, though, Parallel Lives hadn't seen a serious reprint aside from the judge promo released the year prior in low quantities. This left the card's price sky high due to insatiable demand - even higher than Doubling Season's! As a result, this reprint was massive in getting more copies into players' hands and a critical reprint for token lovers everywhere.

1. Rhystic Study

Love it or hate it, the proliferation of Commander has made Rhystic Study only get more and more expensive as the years have gone on. That's taking into consideration the fact that it's received reprints in Jumpstart, Jumpstart 2022, a print-to-demand Secret Lair, The List, and more. It's almost a wonder this one wasn't one of the ones in Commander Masters as well. It only gets more expensive and harder to acquire, making this Commander staple far and away the number one needed reprint for this set.
