Aether Inspector is a 3/2 for four mana that produces a single Servo token when it enters — a thoroughly unimpressive rate in any competitive context. Creatures that ask this much mana for this little board impact don't make the cut in Commander or any other format where the bar for a four-drop is much higher.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |

| standard | not legal |

| pauper | legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Aether Inspector is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Pioneer, Vintage, Pauper, and Oathbreaker, but legality is not the same as playability. In Commander, a 3/2 for four that makes one Servo token is too slow and too small to matter — token synergy decks have access to far more efficient enablers. Pauper is the one format where commons occasionally punch above their weight, but even there Aether Inspector's rate is below the threshold for competitive lists. Across the board, this card sits firmly in bulk-common territory with no format where it sees real play.

Price Context

unknown tier
Pricing data for Aether Inspector isn't available here, but as a bulk common from a heavily-opened set it almost certainly sits at or near zero — likely available for pennies in any bulk bin. There's no competitive demand driving the price up, so don't expect that to change.
