Delina, Wild Mage

Legendary Creature — Elf Shaman

Whenever Delina attacks, choose target creature you control, then roll a d20.

15—20 | Create one of those tokens. You may roll again.

Delina, Wild Mage card art
Delina, Wild Mage creates nonlegendary copies of creatures when she attacks, and with the right dice roll she chains into unlimited tokens — the same axis as Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker but stapled to a combat trigger and a built-in infinite loop with untap creatures. The cost is relying on a d20 roll to extend the chain, which Wyll, Blade of Frontiers // Sword Coast Sailor's +1 bonus makes dramatically more consistent.

Wyll, Blade of Frontiers // Sword Coast Sailor

90.9% of decks · synergy 0.89

Wyll, Blade of Frontiers // Sword Coast Sailor adds +1 to every die roll, which directly widens the window on Delina, Wild Mage's 15–20 trigger — turning a 30% chance into a 35% chance per copy, compounding fast when tokens are already on the stack.

02
Mr. House, President and CEO

Mr. House, President and CEO

81.5% of decks · synergy 0.74

Mr. House, President and CEO rewards dice rolls with Treasure tokens, so every attack with Delina, Wild Mage that spins the d20 is also accelerating mana — making the loop economically efficient even when it fails to go infinite.

03
The Master, Multiplied

The Master, Multiplied

64.9% of decks · synergy 0.61

The Master, Multiplied copies itself whenever a nontoken copy enters, so Delina, Wild Mage attacking creates a cascade of The Master triggers that can spiral into a token army before combat even resolves.

04
Deadpool, Trading Card

Deadpool, Trading Card

60.9% of decks · synergy 0.57

Deadpool, Trading Card cares about rolling dice and dealing damage in unconventional ways, and Delina, Wild Mage supplies both — each attack generates a d20 roll while tokens pile up to swing for lethal.

05
Vrondiss, Rage of Ancients

Vrondiss, Rage of Ancients

53.8% of decks · synergy 0.50

Vrondiss, Rage of Ancients pops off a 5/4 Dragon Spirit token whenever a spell or ability deals damage to it, and Delina, Wild Mage copying Vrondiss creates a loop where each token enters, triggers enrage, and fuels the next copy.

FormatVerdict
commander

oathbreaker

Delina, Wild Mage is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Pioneer, Vintage, and Oathbreaker — but Commander is the only format where she consistently earns a slot. In constructed formats like Modern and Pioneer, a four-mana 3/2 with a combat trigger and a dice-roll dependency is too slow and fragile against interaction to be competitive. Legacy and Vintage have better combo pieces at lower costs, so she doesn't show up there either. Commander is her home: the singleton environment rewards unique loop potential over raw efficiency, and the 40-life clock gives her enough time to set up the conditions she needs.

Budget Alternatives

Cheaper options that do most of the same work

Splinter Twin and Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker accomplish similar infinite-copy goals but cost more and require specific creature targets — Delina, Wild Mage is already the budget option in that design space. For players who want copying without the dice-roll variance, Reflection of Kiki-Jiki offers a close functional substitute at a lower price point, though it loses the built-in infinite potential and the synergy with dice-roll commanders entirely.

Price Context

Current price

$6.18 mid tier

At $6.18, Delina, Wild Mage sits in the mid tier — reasonable for a card with a built-in infinite combo and strong demand from multiple popular commander archetypes. That price is unlikely to erode significantly given her unique role in dice-roll decks, but she's not a card you need to chase at a premium.
