Capashen Unicorn destroys an artifact or enchantment the turn it attacks, but you're paying two mana to deploy a 2/2 that has to survive to combat before anything dies. Outside of Thurid, Mare of Destiny and dedicated Horse-tribal shells, that cost-to-payoff ratio puts it well below the bar for Commander removal.

Thurid, Mare of Destiny
Thurid, Mare of Destiny cares about Horses attacking, so Capashen Unicorn pulls double duty as a synergistic tribal piece and an answer to problem artifacts and enchantments — two functions in one creature slot.

Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |

In Commander, Capashen Unicorn is a role-player only in Horse-tribal decks; everywhere else, instant-speed removal that doesn't require a 2/2 to connect does the job cleaner. Pauper is the one format where the attack trigger attached to a common body might earn a look, since enchantment removal at common is thinner there. Legacy and Vintage are legal but irrelevant — Capashen Unicorn will never see those tables.
