Flying
At the beginning of your end step, draw a card. Then each opponent faces a villainous choice — That player discards a card, or you may put a Construct, Robot, or Vehicle card from your hand onto the battlefield.

Dr. Eggman enters with a Treasure token and a Clue token, meaning he replaces his own mana cost and draws you a card — that's two resources stapled to a single ETB. At four mana for a 3/3, the body is incidental; the real ask is whether your deck can abuse that enter-the-battlefield event repeatedly.
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 | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Commander is the natural home for Dr. Eggman — ETB-abuse strategies with Yarok, the Desecrated, Panharmonicon, or blink commanders like Brago, King Eternal multiply both triggers, netting you mana and cards at scale. In Legacy and Vintage, four mana for a 3/3 with two slow-value tokens doesn't compete with the raw speed of those formats, and Dr. Eggman will almost never see a competitive sleeve there. Oathbreaker is the sleeper format where he shines as a signature spell target or support piece in artifact-heavy shells.

Price Context
Current price
$1.48 cheap tier
At $1.48, Dr. Eggman sits in impulse-buy territory — easy to slot in and easy to cut without regret. Demand from casual ETB and artifact decks should keep the floor stable, but don't expect significant movement either direction.
