Teferi's Protection — from Commander 2017 to reprints and why it still costs a bundle

Teferi's Protection is a three-mana white instant: until your next turn your life total can't change, you gain protection from everything, and all permanents you control phase out. It was printed once in Commander 2017 — no foil in that set — and has since appeared in a handful of reprint products. It's one of the most requested cards in the format: a one-card reset that blanks wraths, combat, and targeted removal. EDHREC ranks it among the top white cards in Commander. Below: the card, a short reprint history, and a price chart for the C17 printing.

Reprint history

Commander 2017 was the only standard booster-style source for years. Wizards has since put Teferi's Protection in Secret Lair products and other premium releases, which added supply but also gave collectors and foil chasers new options. The original C17 copy remains the reference for many players; nonfoil only from that set means foil demand is satisfied by later printings. The chart below reflects the C17 version. We're not calling a top or a bottom — we're presenting the data so you can see how the card has moved. Toggle other printings on your preferred marketplace if you're comparing versions.

Why it matters

Teferi's Protection does something almost no other card does: it makes you and your board temporarily untouchable. That kind of effect will always have demand in Commander. When new reprints drop, they can shift where players buy; the chart shows you the trajectory of the original. We'll keep an eye on future reprints. Happy building.
