Crested Craghorn enters the battlefield with haste and provoke, forcing an opponent's creature to block it — a four-mana 3/1 that trades itself for a target and leaves nothing behind. It's a narrow combat trick stapled to an understatted body, and the effect isn't worth a card slot in any serious list.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | not legal |
| pioneer | not legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Crested Craghorn is legal in Commander, Legacy, Vintage, Pauper, and Oathbreaker, but it sees virtually no play in any of them. In Commander, a 3/1 haste-provoke creature at four mana is too low-impact for a 40-life multiplayer format where trading one-for-one on your own terms is rarely a priority. Pauper is its most plausible home — the format rewards efficient common creatures — but even there, four mana for a 3/1 with no sustained board presence doesn't clear the bar. Crested Craghorn is legal in Legacy and Vintage, where the bar is so high it's essentially invisible.

Price Context
Current price
$0.05 bulk tier
At $0.05, Crested Craghorn is deep bulk — the kind of card that rounds out a trade binder rather than a decklist. That price reflects its demand accurately, and there's no realistic scenario that changes it.
