Cunning Breezedancer enters as a 4/4 flier and gives your next instant or sorcery +4/+4 pump for free — meaningful stats stapled to a meaningful effect. The ask is five mana, which is steep in most shells, but in a spellslinger or Auras-matters deck it earns every pip.

Cunning Breezedancer is a Commander card through and through — the five-mana slot in 60-card formats is too contested for a creature whose payoff is a single triggered buff. In Commander, it finds a home in spellslinger decks that are already casting instants and sorceries every turn, where the +4/+4 rider turns a cantrip into a combat swing. Oathbreaker works similarly given the spell-heavy environment built around signature spells. Legacy, Modern, and Pioneer are non-starters; the rate simply doesn't compete.
