Fangren Pathcutter turns every attacking creature into a trample threat, which in a wide green board means your opponents' blockers become irrelevant. Six mana for a 4/4 is a steep rate, but the trample anthem effect is on-board and immediate the turn it attacks.

Fangren Pathcutter is a Commander card through and through — the effect scales with creature count, and the format's longer games give you time to assemble a board that makes the trample grant meaningful. In competitive 60-card formats like Legacy or Modern it's simply too slow and too expensive at six mana for a marginal body, and it sees no play there. Oathbreaker shares enough of Commander's go-wide creature dynamics that Fangren Pathcutter can pull weight in the right shell, but the smaller deck size means you'll find more efficient trample enablers faster.
