If you have one, it's rare, if you have six, it's not.

Nah, with MtG I have a bunch of "rare" cards, because it just means they printed fewer in the set compared to the commons. But those can still be plentiful. If I wanted to spend $1.50 each on six copies I totally could, that's not hard to afford.

But I like Commander, which is a singleton format, so I only need one copy each.

The actual rare $10k+ cards are either super old from the early days of the game or special numbered collectors' prints.
