Cloudblazer card art
Cloudblazer enters and immediately replaces itself plus some — two life and two cards is a substantial enter-the-battlefield payload on a 2/2 flier. The five-mana cost is the ceiling on its power level outside of blink loops, but pair it with Deadeye Navigator or slot it into a Ranar the Ever-Watchful shell and that cost stops mattering almost immediately.

Commanders with the highest synergy

01
Ranar the Ever-Watchful

Ranar the Ever-Watchful

61.4% of decks · synergy 0.52

Ranar the Ever-Watchful triggers off the first token created each turn, and every blink of Cloudblazer refills your hand while draining the opponent's life total — the loop generates both cards and board presence simultaneously.

02
Roon of the Hidden Realm

Roon of the Hidden Realm

52.0% of decks · synergy 0.50

Roon of the Hidden Realm's activated ability exists to blink value creatures at end of turn, and Cloudblazer is exactly the kind of ETB engine Roon wants — two cards and two life every turn cycle adds up faster than most tables expect.

03
Brago, King Eternal

Brago, King Eternal

54.1% of decks · synergy 0.45

Brago, King Eternal blinks every nonland permanent it deals combat damage through, which means a single hit resets Cloudblazer and nets two cards and two life before you even untap — at 54% inclusion, it's one of Brago's most-run pieces for a reason.

04
Yorion, Sky Nomad

Yorion, Sky Nomad

46.1% of decks · synergy 0.37

Yorion, Sky Nomad's enter-the-battlefield effect flickers your whole board, and Cloudblazer is one of the cleaner hits in that mass-blink payload — raw card advantage stapled to a flier plays well in the wide, ETB-dense builds Yorion demands.

05
Aminatou, the Fateshifter

Aminatou, the Fateshifter

35.0% of decks · synergy 0.34

Aminatou, the Fateshifter's minus ability blinks a permanent you control at will, and Cloudblazer converts each activation into two cards and two life — it's a repeatable draw engine on a commander that wants exactly that kind of incremental value.

Format Analysis

Where it lives, where it can’t

FormatVerdict
commander
legacy
modern
pioneer
standard
vintage
pauper
oathbreaker

Commander is where Cloudblazer lives — the format's longer games and blink-heavy archetypes give it room to fire multiple times and snowball card advantage. In constructed formats like Modern and Pioneer it's too slow and too fair; a five-mana 2/2 with no immediate board impact gets outpaced by turn three. Legacy and Vintage are out of the question for anything that doesn't break the game on arrival. Standard legality makes Cloudblazer occasionally relevant in Limited, where two cards and two life on an evasive body is a genuine bomb, but it rarely makes constructed 60-card cuts there either. Bottom line: Cloudblazer is a Commander card, and specifically a blink-commander card.

Price Context

Current price

$0.23 bulk tier

At $0.23, Cloudblazer is deep bulk — you're paying almost nothing for a card that does real work in the right shell. Supply is high enough that the price isn't going anywhere, which makes it an easy include to pick up and hold for any ETB or blink build you're assembling.
