Bull Cerodon hits the board as a 5/5 with vigilance and haste for five mana — it attacks the turn it arrives and holds back blockers simultaneously. The cost is real: six mana total puts it in a slot crowded with creatures that do more for the same investment.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |

| oathbreaker | legal |
Bull Cerodon is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but sees essentially no competitive play in any of them. In Commander, a 5/5 with vigilance and haste for six mana is a fine rate on a body with no enter-the-battlefield effect, no evasion, and no text that interacts with the board beyond combat — it's a threat that doesn't threaten anything a more synergistic creature wouldn't handle better. In Legacy, Modern, and Vintage, the bar for a six-mana vanilla-adjacent creature is prohibitively high; Bull Cerodon never appears in those formats for good reason.

Price Context
Current price
$0.13 bulk tier
At $0.13, Bull Cerodon is deep bulk — the kind of card that never climbs because there's no competitive demand pulling it up. If you need it for a casual build, it costs almost nothing; don't expect that to change.
