Ebony Treefolk is a 2/2 for three mana that requires both black and green to cast — the stat line is unplayable by any competitive standard. There is no effect attached to justify the slot, and no deck that needs a vanilla 2/2 at three mana.
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 |
Ebony Treefolk is legal in Commander, Legacy, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but legality and playability are different conversations. In Legacy and Vintage, a vanilla 2/2 for three mana with a two-color pip requirement has never been relevant and never will be. Commander is the only format where bulk creatures occasionally find homes through tribal or thematic builds, but Treefolk tribal has far better options at every point on the curve — Treefolk Harbinger, Timber Protector, and Doran, the Siege Tower all do real work where Ebony Treefolk does none.

Price Context
Current price
$0.18 bulk tier
At $0.18, Ebony Treefolk is deep bulk — the kind of card that ends up in a box, not a deck. That price will hold in the sense that it cannot meaningfully fall further, but there is no demand pressure to push it upward.
