Concealed Weapon card art
Concealed Weapon puts a +1/+1 counter and deathtouch on any creature at instant speed for two mana — that's a combat trick, a pump, and a keyword stapled together. In Yarus, Roar of the Old Gods decks specifically, the deathtouch clause turns every trampling Dinosaur into a forced trade the opponent can't afford to take.

Yarus, Roar of the Old Gods wants massive creatures swinging through — Concealed Weapon makes blocking any of them a losing proposition, since deathtouch plus trample means your opponent either takes the full damage or loses their blocker and takes the excess.

Concealed Weapon is legal across every major constructed format, but it hasn't found a competitive home in Modern, Pioneer, or Standard, where two-mana combat tricks need to win games outright or generate card advantage to earn a slot. Commander is the natural habitat: one-for-one spells carry more weight in a singleton format, and the combination of counter, deathtouch, and flash is genuinely useful in combat-heavy creature decks. In Legacy and Vintage, the card is too slow and too low-impact to compete with the raw power of those formats. Stick to Commander, and specifically to aggressive creature strategies where making a single attacker or blocker threatening can swing a board stall.

Price Context

Current price

$0.09 bulk tier

At $0.09, Concealed Weapon is bulk — the kind of card you pull from a bulk box rather than order individually. Bulk commons and uncommons that see niche Commander play rarely climb without a breakout moment, so don't expect the price to move.
