The single most expensive MTG card is an Alpha copy of Black Lotus (rated PSA 10 gem mint), which sold for $3,000,000 in 2023
Here you can toss in a deck with 5 or 6 planeswalkers and nothing else counter-wise and still use it for mana, with only the tapped ETB ability the thing the only cost to care about
Command Zone One of the less important zones defined in the rules, the Command Zone primarily acts as a display area for cards or objects which are technically in the game, but should not usually be interacted with, like planeswalker emblems
I managed to win with it, I managed to beat it, and I never got tired of how much it alters the game when you suddenly have extra creatures to play and attack with
Its also synergistic with cards that want you to lose life like Death's Shadow and Vilis, Broker of Blood to enable some powerful synergies as soon as it hits the battlefield
