Bloodborn Scoundrels card art
Bloodborn Scoundrels enters as a 4/4 with two Outlaw creature tokens — three bodies for one card, with the option to bargain away the extras for value later. Six mana is the real cost of admission, and that price tag keeps it squarely in Commander rather than any faster format.

Bloodborn Scoundrels is legal in Commander, Legacy, Vintage, Pauper, and Oathbreaker, but only Pauper and Commander give it a realistic home. In Legacy and Vintage the six-mana asking price is disqualifying — those formats close out games before this resolves with any impact. Pauper is the sweet spot for non-Commander play: three bodies at common rarity is real card advantage in a format where tempo and board presence matter at every mana step. In Commander, Bloodborn Scoundrels fits token-go-wide and sacrifice strategies, where flooding the board with Outlaws and feeding them to altars or aristocrats engines is exactly the plan.

$0.06 bulk tier

At $0.06, Bloodborn Scoundrels is deep bulk — buy a playset without thinking twice. Bulk commons rarely climb unless a format breaks them wide open, so don't expect the price to move.
