Coral Sword is a two-mana equipment that grants +2/+0 and first strike — straightforward stats, no enters-the-battlefield rider, no text box complexity. It earns its slot in exactly one kind of deck: Valduk, Keeper of the Flame, where every equipment attached to Valduk generates a 3/1 trample haste token, making the sword's low equip cost more relevant than its combat bonus.

Valduk, Keeper of the Flame
Valduk, Keeper of the Flame turns every attached equipment into a 3/1 token at combat, so Coral Sword's value isn't the +2/+0 — it's a cheap, low-equip-cost body on the count. At sixteen percent inclusion, it's a near-staple in that shell.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | legal |
| pioneer | legal |
| standard | legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Coral Sword is legal across every major constructed format, but it doesn't see meaningful play outside Commander. In Vintage, Legacy, Modern, and Pioneer, equipment needs to either win the game on its own (Colossus Hammer) or generate immediate card advantage (Sword of Fire and Ice) — Coral Sword does neither. In Commander, the math is simple: it's a role-player in Valduk, Keeper of the Flame and a cut in almost every other 99.

Price Context
Current price
$0.14 bulk tier
At $0.14, Coral Sword is deep bulk — grab it out of a common box rather than ordering it. Bulk equipment rarely climbs without a tournament breakout, and nothing in Coral Sword's text box points toward one.
