Barrow Naughty puts a 1/1 flying Faerie token onto the battlefield the moment it enters, and then replaces itself by drawing a card — real, immediate value on a two-mana body. In Obyra, Dreaming Duelist builds specifically, that token triggers Obyra before you've even untapped, making this one of the most efficient pieces in the deck.

Obyra, Dreaming Duelist
Obyra, Dreaming Duelist deals damage whenever a Faerie enters under your control, so Barrow Naughty effectively reads 'deal damage, draw a card, leave a flier' for two mana — that's the entire engine in one card.

Barrow Naughty is legal everywhere but earns its slot almost exclusively in Commander, where the Faerie tribal synergies that make it matter are concentrated. In 60-card formats it competes against faster, more powerful two-drops and the token plus cantrip package rarely clears that bar. Pauper is where it has the most theoretical room in non-Commander formats, since card-drawing creatures at common are always worth a look, but Faeries already have stronger options there. Stick to Commander.

Price Context
Current price
$0.04 bulk tier
At $0.04, Barrow Naughty is deep bulk — you'll pay more in shipping than for the card itself. Bulk rares and commons with narrow tribal homes rarely climb without a reprint or a breakout deck, so treat this as a free inclusion, not a spec.
