Cetavolver is a kicker-dependent creature that tops out at a 3/3 first strike, flying, trample body — respectable stats, but only if you pay the full kicker cost on top of an already steep base. Without kicker, you're deploying a vanilla 1/1 for two mana, which no Commander table will fear.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | not legal |
| pioneer | not legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Cetavolver is legal in Commander, Legacy, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but sees virtually no competitive play in any of them. In Commander, the kicker payoff isn't worth the mana investment when threats like this are expected to generate immediate board impact or combo potential — a 3/3 with evasion for five-plus mana doesn't move the needle. Legacy and Vintage have access to far more efficient threats, and Cetavolver's ceiling simply doesn't compete. It's a bulk curiosity, not a format staple in any context.

Price Context
Current price
$0.26 bulk tier
At $0.26, Cetavolver sits firmly in bulk territory, and there's no pressure driving that price upward — demand is low and copies are plentiful. Buy it if a specific kicker-matters build needs the slot, but don't expect the price to move.
