One sweeper can erase three opponents&#8217; worth of creatures, unstick a hopeless board, and hand you the game on the spot \u2014 which is exactly why every serious Commander deck runs a few. This guide ranks the <strong>best board wipes in MTG<\/strong> for 2026, from the premium one-sided blowouts to budget sweepers under a dollar, plus how many you should actually run and when to fire them.<\/p>\n\n<p>Every card below was checked for current Commander legality and price at the time of writing.

Fewer than three and you&#8217;ll lose to the table&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/krakenthemeta.com\/blog\/best-token-generators-mtg\/\">go-wide token decks<\/a> before you ever stabilize; more than five and you start wiping your own board too often and slowing your game plan to a crawl. The exact number flexes with your archetype:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Control \/ midrange:<\/strong> 4\u20135 wipes. You want to be the one who resets the table.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Aggro \/ go-wide \/ tokens:<\/strong> 1\u20133, ideally <em>one-sided<\/em> ones, so you don&#8217;t blow up your own army.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Voltron \/ single big threat:<\/strong> 4\u20136 \u2014 your one commander survives the wipe while everyone else&#8217;s board evaporates.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>This is the same math our deck-building guides use.

Cyclonic Rift \u2014 the one-sided king<\/h3>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cards.scryfall.io\/normal\/front\/d\/f\/dfb7c4b9-f2f4-4d4e-baf2-86551c8150fe.jpg\" alt=\"Cyclonic Rift \u2014 the best one-sided board wipe in MTG Commander\" width=\"488\" height=\"680\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n<p><strong>{1}{U} (overload {6}{U}) \u00b7 ~$41.55<\/strong>. The most feared blue card in the format. Cast it for two mana to bounce a single problem permanent, or overload it for seven to return <em>every<\/em> nonland permanent your opponents control to their hands \u2014 while yours stay untouched. It&#8217;s an instant, so you do it on their end step and untap into a wide-open board. It&#8217;s pricey and a touch controversial, but it remains fully Commander-legal and is the single best board wipe in the format for blue decks.<\/p>\n\n<h3>2. Toxic Deluge \u2014 the indestructible-proof sweeper<\/h3>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cards.scryfall.io\/normal\/front\/d\/e\/de5afccc-8d42-4bd6-b068-b9ea2361655e.jpg\" alt=\"Toxic Deluge \u2014 black board wipe that kills indestructible creatures in MTG\" width=\"488\" height=\"680\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n<p><strong>{2}{B} + X life \u00b7 ~$5.18<\/strong>. Pay X life and give every creature -X\/-X. Because it&#8217;s a toughness reduction rather than destruction, it sails right past indestructible, regeneration, and &#8220;can&#8217;t be destroyed&#8221; effects that stop Wrath of God cold. Scalable, cheap to cast, and black&#8217;s premier sweeper.<\/p>\n\n<h3>3. Blasphemous Act \u2014 near-free with a full board<\/h3>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cards.scryfall.io\/normal\/front\/7\/d\/7d4b1d44-126e-4987-9a9f-f0f9627a09cb.jpg\" alt=\"Blasphemous Act \u2014 cheap red board wipe that deals 13 damage to all creatures\" width=\"488\" height=\"680\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n<p><strong>{8}{R}, costs {1} less per creature on the battlefield \u00b7 ~$0.63<\/strong>. With a crowded table it routinely costs just {R}. Thirteen damage to every creature kills almost anything that isn&#8217;t a giant. One of the best budget board wipes ever printed and an auto-include in red decks.<\/p>\n\n<h3>4. Farewell \u2014 total, modal annihilation<\/h3>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cards.scryfall.io\/normal\/front\/1\/1\/114d2180-093b-4838-97ad-badbc8ee50b0.jpg\" alt=\"Farewell \u2014 modal white board wipe that exiles creatures, artifacts and enchantments\" width=\"488\" height=\"680\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n<p><strong>{4}{W}{W} \u00b7 ~$6.17<\/strong>. Pick any combination of four modes: exile all artifacts, creatures, enchantments, and\/or graveyards. It <em>exiles<\/em>, so death triggers and recursion get nothing, and you choose only the categories you don&#8217;t care about. The most flexible reset in the game.<\/p>\n\n<h3>5. Wrath of God \u2014 the original four-mana reset<\/h3>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cards.scryfall.io\/normal\/front\/5\/3\/537d2b05-3f52-45d6-8fe3-26282085d0c6.jpg\" alt=\"Wrath of God \u2014 the classic four-mana white board wipe in MTG\" width=\"488\" height=\"680\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n<p><strong>{2}{W}{W} \u00b7 ~$4.00<\/strong>. Destroy all creatures; they can&#8217;t be regenerated. The card that defined the category back in 1993 and still does its job at a clean four mana. If you play white and want a no-frills sweeper, this is the baseline.<\/p>\n\n<h3>6. Damnation \u2014 Wrath in black<\/h3>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cards.scryfall.io\/normal\/front\/d\/3\/d3c0aac5-b9f1-4446-bfea-3e1dd1cf1f2f.jpg\" alt=\"Damnation \u2014 black four-mana board wipe, the black Wrath of God\" width=\"488\" height=\"680\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n<p><strong>{2}{B}{B} \u00b7 ~$21.09<\/strong>. Functionally Wrath of God in black: destroy all creatures, no regeneration. Essential for heavy-black decks that can&#8217;t cast double white, though reprints have kept demand (and price) high.<\/p>\n\n<h3>7. Austere Command \u2014 choose your blowout<\/h3>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cards.scryfall.io\/normal\/front\/a\/8\/a8bc7912-e201-468a-b251-140205cb741c.jpg\" alt=\"Austere Command \u2014 modal white board wipe for MTG Commander\" width=\"488\" height=\"680\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n<p><strong>{4}{W}{W} \u00b7 ~$0.40<\/strong>. Choose two: destroy all artifacts, all enchantments, all creatures with mana value 3 or greater, or all creatures with mana value 3 or less. The split-by-cost modes let you wipe the table while keeping your own small creatures or mana dorks. Incredible value for the price.<\/p>\n\n<h3>8. Supreme Verdict \u2014 can&#8217;t be countered<\/h3>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cards.scryfall.io\/normal\/front\/3\/8\/3892f1c5-937e-4ef4-b6f9-e0c0ded070d0.jpg\" alt=\"Supreme Verdict \u2014 uncounterable Azorius board wipe in MTG\" width=\"488\" height=\"680\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n<p><strong>{1}{W}{W}{U} \u00b7 ~$2.61<\/strong>. Destroy all creatures, and it <em>can&#8217;t be countered<\/em>. For Azorius (white-blue) control decks staring down a wall of counterspells, that clause is everything. A staple sweeper in any deck running both colors.<\/p>\n\n<h3>9. Vanquish the Horde \u2014 the budget token-killer<\/h3>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cards.scryfall.io\/normal\/front\/f\/3\/f392782b-7464-4617-b421-6b5d0e2880fc.jpg\" alt=\"Vanquish the Horde \u2014 budget white board wipe that scales against token decks\" width=\"488\" height=\"680\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n<p><strong>{6}{W}{W}, costs {1} less per creature \u00b7 ~$0.28<\/strong>. The white answer to Blasphemous Act. Against a go-wide table it often costs just two or three mana and destroys every creature. Pennies on the dollar and exactly the wipe a beginner budget deck wants.<\/p>\n\n<h3>10. Brotherhood&#8217;s End \u2014 modal budget sweeper<\/h3>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cards.scryfall.io\/normal\/front\/5\/0\/50f7666d-0d60-4fe5-b144-286d4e47b704.jpg\" alt=\"Brotherhood's End \u2014 budget red board wipe that hits creatures and artifacts\" width=\"488\" height=\"680\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n<p><strong>{1}{R}{R} \u00b7 ~$1.28<\/strong>. Choose one or both: 3 damage to each creature, or destroy each nonland artifact with mana value 3 or less. The rare red wipe that also answers artifact decks and mana rocks. A budget all-star that punches well above its price.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Best budget board wipes (under $1)<\/h2>\n\n<p>You do not need to spend $40 to reset a board. These sweepers cost less than a booster pack and pull their weight in any deck:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Shatter the Sky<\/strong> (~$0.22) \u2014 {2}{W}{W}, destroy all creatures; the opponent may draw a card if they had no creatures. Wrath of God&#8217;s cheaper twin.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vanquish the Horde<\/strong> (~$0.28) \u2014 scales down hard against tokens.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Austere Command<\/strong> (~$0.40) \u2014 modal flexibility at a budget price.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Blasphemous Act<\/strong> (~$0.63) \u2014 effectively {R} with a full board.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Brotherhood&#8217;s End<\/strong> (~$1.28) \u2014 hits creatures <em>and<\/em> artifacts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Building on a budget? Pair these with our picks for the <a href=\"https:\/\/krakenthemeta.com\/blog\/best-budget-commanders\/\">best budget commanders in 2026<\/a>, and check live prices any time with the <a href=\"https:\/\/krakenthemeta.com\/cards-pricing.php\">card pricing tool<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p>One more budget sweeper deserves a line of its own, because it is the only Wrath you can pay for in two instalments. <strong>Doomskar<\/strong> (~$0.74) is {3}{W}{W}, destroy all creatures &mdash; or {2} on turn three to <a href=\"https:\/\/krakenthemeta.com\/blog\/mtg-foretell\/\">foretell<\/a> it, and {1}{W}{W} on any later turn to cast it from exile. That leaves you mana to develop on both turns, and while it sits face down in exile no discard spell can touch it. Its blue cousin <strong>Spectral Deluge<\/strong> does the same trick one-sidedly, bouncing every opposing creature with toughness up to your Island count for {1}{U}{U} once foretold.<\/p>\n<h3>The one-sided option: overloaded Mizzium Mortars<\/h3>\n<p><em>Mizzium Mortars<\/em> costs 43 cents and deals 4 damage to each creature you don&#8217;t control when you pay its <a href=\"https:\/\/krakenthemeta.com\/blog\/mtg-overload\/\">overload cost<\/a> of {3}{R}{R}{R} \u2014 a six-mana sweeper that leaves your own board completely untouched. Overload is the cheapest route to a one-sided wipe in red, and <em>Vandalblast<\/em> does the same job against artifacts for five mana.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Quick-pick board wipe table<\/h2>\n\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr><th>Card<\/th><th>Color<\/th><th>Mana Value<\/th><th>Price<\/th><th>Best For<\/th><\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr><td><strong>Cyclonic Rift<\/strong><\/td><td>Blue<\/td><td>2 \/ 7 overload<\/td><td>~$41.55<\/td><td>One-sided reset, instant speed<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td><strong>Toxic Deluge<\/strong><\/td><td>Black<\/td><td>3 + life<\/td><td>~$5.18<\/td><td>Killing indestructible creatures<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td><strong>Blasphemous Act<\/strong><\/td><td>Red<\/td><td>9 (often 1)<\/td><td>~$0.63<\/td><td>Cheap, crowded boards<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td><strong>Farewell<\/strong><\/td><td>White<\/td><td>6<\/td><td>~$6.17<\/td><td>Modal exile (artifacts\/enchants too)<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td><strong>Wrath of God<\/strong><\/td><td>White<\/td><td>4<\/td><td>~$4.00<\/td><td>Clean, reliable reset<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td><strong>Damnation<\/strong><\/td><td>Black<\/td><td>4<\/td><td>~$21.09<\/td><td>Mono-black \/ no-white decks<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td><strong>Austere Command<\/strong><\/td><td>White<\/td><td>6<\/td><td>~$0.40<\/td><td>Selective, keep your own board<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td><strong>Supreme Verdict<\/strong><\/td><td>W\/U<\/td><td>4<\/td><td>~$2.61<\/td><td>Beating counterspell decks<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td><strong>Vanquish the Horde<\/strong><\/td><td>White<\/td><td>8 (often 2\u20133)<\/td><td>~$0.28<\/td><td>Budget anti-token wipe<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td><strong>Brotherhood&#8217;s End<\/strong><\/td><td>Red<\/td><td>3<\/td><td>~$1.28<\/td><td>Creatures + artifacts on a budget<\/td><\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n<h2>How to play board wipes well<\/h2>\n\n<p>Owning the best sweepers means nothing if you fire them at the wrong time. A few rules of thumb:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Don&#8217;t wipe when you&#8217;re ahead.<\/strong> If your board is the biggest, a reset only helps your opponents. Hold it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wait for value.<\/strong> A wipe that kills two creatures is fine; one that kills nine is backbreaking. Patience usually pays.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Favor instant-speed and one-sided wipes<\/strong> (Cyclonic Rift, Toxic Deluge with the right setup) so you can untap into a clear board.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Protect your commander.<\/strong> Voltron and single-threat decks love wipes because their one big creature survives while everyone else starts over.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pair wipes with targeted removal and counterspells.<\/strong> Sweepers handle the swarm; <a href=\"https:\/\/krakenthemeta.com\/blog\/best-removal-spells-mtg\/\">spot removal<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/krakenthemeta.com\/blog\/magic-the-gathering-best-counterspells\/\">the best counterspells<\/a> handle the single haymaker.

If you want a destruction-based wipe instead, <strong>Toxic Deluge<\/strong> and <strong>Farewell<\/strong> are the top picks because they get around indestructible and recursion.<\/p>\n\n<h3>How many board wipes should I run in a Commander deck?<\/h3>\n<p>Run <strong>3 to 5 board wipes<\/strong> in a typical 100-card Commander deck. Control and midrange decks want 4\u20135; go-wide or aggressive decks want fewer and should prefer one-sided wipes. The free <a href=\"https:\/\/krakenthemeta.com\/mtg-deck-analyzer\">deck analyzer<\/a> will tell you how many your list currently has.<\/p>\n\n<h3>What is the cheapest board wipe?<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Shatter the Sky<\/strong> (~$0.22) and <strong>Vanquish the Horde<\/strong> (~$0.28) are among the cheapest effective board wipes, both well under a dollar. <strong>Blasphemous Act<\/strong> (~$0.63) is also a budget favorite and often costs only one red mana to cast.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Is Cyclonic Rift banned in Commander?<\/h3>\n<p>No. As of 2026, Cyclonic Rift is <strong>legal in Commander<\/strong>. It&#8217;s powerful and sometimes debated, but it is not on the banned list and remains one of the format&#8217;s premier blue cards.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"font-size:0.85em;color:#888;margin-top:2em;\">Card images courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/scryfall.com\" rel=\"nofollow\">Scryfall<\/a>.
