Arcane Maelstrom: decklist, contents and value

Where the value sits

The single most valuable card in Arcane Maelstrom is Deflecting Swat, at $65.08 — 47% of everything the deck is worth. That is a concentrated deck: most of what you paid for sits in one card, so the deck’s value stands or falls with it.

By singles value it is the 48th most valuable of the 177 precon decks we price, and the 2nd most valuable of the 5 decks in Commander 2020.

This deck has been out of print for years, so shops no longer sell it at its release price. Whatever a sealed copy costs today has moved away from that figure — in one direction or the other — and the comparison above is about what the deck cost when it was on shelves, not what it costs now.
