Baloth Gorger is a 4/4 for four mana with no enters-the-battlefield effect, no keywords, and no text — a vanilla creature that's been outclassed by nearly every green four-drop printed in the last decade. The competition at this slot is too deep to justify it.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | legal |
| pioneer | legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Baloth Gorger is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Pioneer, Vintage, Pauper, and Oathbreaker, but legal doesn't mean playable. In Pauper it's the most relevant format to even consider it, and even there a 4/4 for four with no abilities sits well below the power floor of what green can do at common. In Commander, green has access to Cultivate, Rampant Growth, and dozens of four-mana creatures that generate immediate value — a vanilla body at this slot is a dead draw at any table. Across every 60-card format, it simply doesn't meet the bar.

Current price
$0.11 bulk tier
