Charge of the Forever-Beast deals damage equal to the greatest power among creatures you control directly to any target — a Fling-style payoff that scales with your biggest threat rather than sacrificing it. At two mana, it's a clean finisher in any green deck already building toward a single massive creature.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | legal |
| pioneer | legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Charge of the Forever-Beast is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Pioneer, Vintage, and Oathbreaker. Commander is where it earns its slot — green decks routinely clock creatures with 10, 15, or 20 power, and Charge converts that board presence into a one-shot kill on a player or planeswalker without sacrificing anything. In competitive non-rotating formats like Modern and Legacy, the ceiling is lower: two mana for conditional damage that requires a built board doesn't compete with the raw efficiency available, and it sees virtually no play there. Pioneer is the same story — the card is legal but irrelevant outside of niche Timmy-style strategies.

Price Context
Current price
$0.11 bulk tier
At $0.11, Charge of the Forever-Beast is deep bulk — the kind of card you pull from a dollar box without thinking twice. Bulk rares with narrow applications don't climb without a breakout decklist pushing demand, so there's no reason to expect movement.
