Citanul Stalwart card art
Citanul Stalwart lands as a 3/3 with vigilance for three mana and immediately puts a +1/+1 counter on a creature you control — relevant board presence and a counter payload in one card. Kona, Rescue Beastie decks run it because that upfront counter fuels Kona's adopt triggers without spending any additional resources.

Citanul Stalwart enters and immediately delivers the +1/+1 counter that Kona, Rescue Beastie wants on adopted creatures, making it one of the more efficient filler pieces in the 99 — a 3/3 body with vigilance is just the bonus.

Citanul Stalwart is a Commander card through and through — the counter-on-entry effect scales with aristocrats, counters-matter, and blink strategies that show up constantly in the format. In Pauper it's legal but competes with stronger three-drop commons that either go wider or trade more efficiently. Modern, Pioneer, Legacy, and Vintage have no interest: a 3/3 for three with a single counter attached doesn't clear the bar in any of those formats. Stick to Commander if you're sleeving up Citanul Stalwart.

Price Context

Current price

$0.18 bulk tier

At $0.18, Citanul Stalwart is pure bulk — you're acquiring it out of a commons box, not a singles order. Bulk rares with narrow roles rarely climb in price, so don't expect it to move unless a future Kona reprint or precon drives a sudden spike in counters-matters Commander decks.
