Borrowed Grace pumps your entire team by +2/+0 or +0/+2 until end of turn, with the choice made on cast — straightforward combat math that can steal a game or survive an alpha strike. It's a fine finisher in token-heavy white decks and strictly a combat trick; don't expect it to do anything outside that lane.

In Commander, Borrowed Grace is a budget slot in token-centric go-wide decks — it does real work when you're swinging thirty creatures at once, but it's a one-turn trick with no lasting board impact, so it competes with anthems that stick. In Pauper, it's legal and occasionally sees fringe use in white weenie or token shells where instant-speed pump matters for combat tricks. Modern, Pioneer, Legacy, and Vintage have no interest — those formats have access to better mass-pump effects at the same or lower cost, and Borrowed Grace's ceiling doesn't justify the slot.

Price Context
Current price
$0.07 bulk tier
At $0.07, Borrowed Grace is deep bulk — you're paying for cardboard and shipping, not the effect. It holds that floor permanently; there's no version of events where this becomes a chase card.
