Price watch
Know when to buy
Add the cards you own or want, set a target price, and get flagged the moment it's hit. Track what your collection is worth as prices move.
Reprint risk
Buy now, or wait?
Every card gets a reprint-risk score from its price, popularity and how long it's been since a regular reprint, so you don't buy right before the price drops.
Questions
How it works
How does Manawise pick upgrades?
It counts the lands, ramp, card draw, removal, board wipes and protection in your deck and compares them with a standard Commander template (about 36 lands, 10 ramp, 10 draw, 8 removal). It then searches the most-played cards in your commander's colors that fill those gaps or match your deck's themes (tokens, artifacts, +1/+1 counters and so on) and fits them to your budget. Cuts are the least-played, highest-cost cards that don't support the plan.
Are the prices live?
Prices are TCGplayer market prices supplied by Scryfall and refreshed once a day. The cost you see is for the cheapest regular printing of each card.
What does "keep it casual" do?
It leaves out cards on the official Commander Game Changers list, so an upgraded precon stays close to its original power level (Bracket 2). Turn it off to allow up to three Game Changers (Bracket 3).
Do I need an account?
No. Everything runs in your browser. Your watchlist is saved on your device, and you can export a backup any time.
Is it free?
Yes. Manawise is supported by affiliate links: if you buy cards through our TCGplayer or Card Kingdom links we may earn a small commission, at no extra cost to you.
