Attendant of Vraska puts a 1/1 white Soldier token with lifelink onto the battlefield when it enters, then replaces itself by drawing a card when it dies — three functions stapled to a single three-mana body. The rate isn't impressive enough for most 100-card lists, but in sacrifice or Planeswalker-loyalty shells that want cheap, disposable creatures with upside, it earns its slot.

In Commander, Attendant of Vraska is a role-player, not a staple — it shows up in Vraska-helmed Oathbreaker builds and sacrifice-value Commander decks that want bodies that do something on the way out. Constructed formats like Modern and Pioneer have no realistic path for it; the rate is simply too low when you can run creatures that generate more immediate pressure for the same cost. Legacy and Vintage don't want it either. Oathbreaker is its most natural home, where Vraska synergies are literal and the extra card on death smooths out the resource math.

Price Context
Current price
$0.13 bulk tier
At $0.13, Attendant of Vraska is deep bulk — the kind of card you pull from a bulk box rather than order individually. It's unlikely to climb in price given its narrow application, so grab it as an incidental pickup if it fits your list rather than treating it as a deliberate acquisition.
