Daru Encampment taps for colorless and can pump a Soldier you control for W — that's the entire value proposition, and it's thin. A land that enters untapped and does nothing without a creature on board is a slot better spent on a land that just produces white mana.

In Commander, Daru Encampment belongs only in Soldier tribal decks, and even there it competes with stronger utility lands that produce colored mana. Legacy and Vintage are legal but irrelevant — no competitive deck wants this effect at this cost. Daru Encampment is effectively a Commander-only card, and a narrow one at that, slotting into go-wide Soldier strategies where squeezing +1/+1 onto an attacker at instant speed has at least marginal relevance.

Price Context
Current price
$0.22 bulk tier
At $0.22, Daru Encampment is bulk, and it earns that price honestly. Demand is too narrow and the effect too replaceable for it to appreciate.
