Badgermole card art
Badgermole turns every land you control into a creature — a game-warping effect that floods combat math and feeds landfall loops without spending your land drops. The cost is a six-mana sorcery with no immediate protection, which means Ashaya, Soul of the Wild and Toph, Earthbending Master shells get the most mileage by going wide before the spell resolves.

Bumi, Unleashed rewards chaotic board states and big splashy permanents, and Badgermole delivering a sudden army of land-creatures fits squarely in that gameplan.

Badgermole is legal everywhere, but Commander is where it actually earns a slot. In a 100-card singleton format with a commander that cares about lands as creatures, the card can single-handedly close games — nowhere else does a six-mana sorcery with that effect hit a critical mass of lands reliably. In competitive constructed formats like Modern and Pioneer, six mana is too slow for the effect you get, and the creature tokens don't persist past the turn unless you have a continuous animator, making it irrelevant in those queues. Pauper has access to it on paper, but the same cost ceiling applies. Treat Badgermole as a Commander-exclusive piece and you'll never be disappointed by it.

Price Context

Current price

$0.14 bulk tier

At $0.14, Badgermole is deep bulk — you're paying almost nothing for a card with a 67% inclusion rate in its best home. That price is unlikely to move much given the card's narrow applicable formats, so pick up copies freely without worrying about timing.
