Daemogoth Titan lands as an 11/10 trampler for four mana — one of the most efficient bodies in the format — and the cost is real: you sacrifice a creature every time you want to attack with it. In The Gitrog, Ravenous Ride shells, that drawback flips into an engine, making Daemogoth Titan a staple rather than a liability.
Best Commanders
Commanders with the highest synergy
The Gitrog, Ravenous Ride
The Gitrog, Ravenous Ride turns the mandatory sacrifice into pure upside — pitching a creature to attack with Daemogoth Titan triggers Gitrog's Roads ability, converting the tax into card advantage and land drops every combat.
Ziatora, the Incinerator
Ziatora, the Incinerator wants the biggest creature on the board to fling for lethal damage, and Daemogoth Titan's 11 power makes it the ideal sacrifice target — clearing your attack obligation while dealing 11 to a player or planeswalker at end of combat.
Venom, Deadly Devourer
Venom, Deadly Devourer scales on creatures dying, so the forced sacrifice Daemogoth Titan demands each turn actively pumps Venom rather than costing you board presence.
Kresh the Bloodbraided
Kresh the Bloodbraided grows by the power of each creature that dies, and sacrificing a creature to swing with Daemogoth Titan puts Kresh into one-shot range faster than almost any other setup.
Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord
Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord can sacrifice Daemogoth Titan itself to drain the table for 11, and the self-sacrifice loop means the attack drawback is often irrelevant — Jarad just wants the power on the card, not the combat step.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | legal |
| pioneer | legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Daemogoth Titan is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Pioneer, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but it's fundamentally a Commander card. In Modern and Pioneer, a four-mana creature that can't attack freely without a sacrifice outlet is too slow and too conditional against interaction-heavy fields. Commander is where Daemogoth Titan thrives because the format is built around value loops, sacrifice synergies, and large-body payoffs — the drawback becomes a deckbuilding constraint you build around, not a weakness you suffer through. In Legacy and Vintage, the card is legal but irrelevant; those formats close games before a 11/10 ever matters.

Price Context
Current price
$1.38 cheap tier
At $1.38, Daemogoth Titan sits in the bulk-rare tier — cheap enough to throw into any sacrifice-themed list without thinking twice. Given its near-universal inclusion in The Gitrog, Ravenous Ride decks and strong uptake in Ziatora and Kresh builds, that price reflects supply rather than demand, and it's unlikely to drop further.
