Crag Puca lets you swap its power and toughness for a single blue or red mana — useful for pushing through damage or surviving a trade, but that's a narrow effect stapled to a 3/3 body for three mana. It sees play almost exclusively in niche combo or shapeshifter-tribal shells that specifically exploit the swap mechanic.

Crag Puca is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but sees essentially no competitive play in any of them. In Commander, it finds a home in Puca-specific combo lines or Shapeshifter tribal decks where the repeated power-toughness swap is either a mechanical requirement or a synergy piece — outside those contexts, a three-mana 3/3 with a marginal activated ability doesn't clear the bar. Legacy, Modern, and Vintage have no shell that wants what Crag Puca does; the effect simply isn't powerful enough to matter in formats where every card has to pull serious weight.

Price Context
Current price
$0.11 bulk tier
At $0.11, Crag Puca is deep bulk — pick it up without a second thought if you need it. Demand is narrow enough that the price has nowhere to go, so don't expect it to budge.
