Commander Masters Draft Booster EV, Pull Rates & Chase Cards

Right now: the best rip in Commander Masters is the Draft Booster Box (24 packs) at $536.74 against $280.66 of expected pulls — a −56% margin after ~15% selling fees, and a 0% chance it actually pays for itself. Figures refresh every two hours.

Commander Masters (August 4, 2023) is a premium Commander reprint set sold in 20-card Draft Boosters: two legendary cards, one rare or mythic, one traditional foil of any rarity and a run of commons and uncommons, 24 packs to a box. It's built for Commander draft, but its sealed price is set by the reprint list rather than by play.

The top of the price list is Collector Booster–only: Textured Foil Jeweled Lotus and The Ur-Dragon, plus Foil Etched and Borderless versions of Deflecting Swat, Fierce Guardianship and Demonic Tutor. A Draft Booster can't contain those. Its realistic chases are the regular Demonic Tutor, Deflecting Swat, Fierce Guardianship, The Great Henge, Smothering Tithe and Jeweled Lotus. Each is a Commander staple in its regular frame.

Loose packs and the 24-pack Draft Booster Box are tracked; Set and Collector Boosters aren't modeled. With over 600 rare and mythic listings the pool is deep and individual hits are scarce. Legend slots are priced from whole rarity buckets because TCGPlayer doesn't tag legendaries, and rarity splits are community estimates. Live numbers are in the table below.

FAQ

How many packs are in a Commander Masters booster box?

What are the chase cards in Commander Masters?

Are Commander Masters pull rates official?

No. The slot structure is published, but the rarity splits are community estimates, and the two legend slots are priced from the set's whole rarity buckets, so the EV is approximate.
