Flameshadow Conjuring

Enchantment

Whenever a nontoken creature you control enters, you may pay {R}. If you do, create a token that's a copy of that creature. That token gains haste. Exile it at the beginning of the next end step.

Flameshadow Conjuring card art
Flameshadow Conjuring turns every nontoken creature you cast into a two-for-one — pay one red mana and get a hasty copy until end of turn, no other setup required. The tax is real but the ceiling is absurd, and when you pair it with something like Worldgorger Dragon or slot it into a The Master, Multiplied shell, it stops being a value engine and starts being a win condition.

Commanders with the highest synergy

01
The Master, Multiplied

The Master, Multiplied

69.2% of decks · synergy 0.66

The Master, Multiplied is the defining home for Flameshadow Conjuring — copying The Master on cast means the token trigger fires immediately, generating a Dalek swarm before the turn even ends, and the haste means those tokens are threatening combat damage right away.

02
Obeka, Brute Chronologist

Obeka, Brute Chronologist

60.2% of decks · synergy 0.58

Flameshadow Conjuring's tokens normally exile at end of turn, but Obeka, Brute Chronologist can end the turn before that trigger resolves, converting every hasty copy into a permanent body at the cost of a tap.

03
Ghired, Mirror of the Wilds

Ghired, Mirror of the Wilds

41.7% of decks · synergy 0.40

Ghired, Mirror of the Wilds copies creatures it deals damage with, and Flameshadow Conjuring supplies a free haste vehicle for any high-value nontoken creature in the deck — swing with the copy, trigger Ghired, get a third body.

04
Herigast, Erupting Nullkite

Herigast, Erupting Nullkite

37.8% of decks · synergy 0.34

Herigast, Erupting Nullkite cares about casting creatures from exile, and Flameshadow Conjuring gives those creatures an immediate hasted double — every impulsively drawn creature becomes two attackers the same turn.

05
Deadpool, Trading Card

Deadpool, Trading Card

30.6% of decks · synergy 0.28

Deadpool, Trading Card rewards casting creatures repeatedly, and Flameshadow Conjuring essentially doubles the cast triggers by putting a hasted copy on board, accelerating the point accumulation that Deadpool runs on.

Format Analysis

Where it lives, where it can’t

FormatVerdict
commander
legacy
modern
pioneer
standard
vintage
pauper
oathbreaker

Flameshadow Conjuring is a Commander card through and through — the single-copy singleton format is exactly where a repeatable, enchantment-based creature doubler earns its keep over multiple turns. In Modern and Legacy it's legal but finds no traction; four mana for a do-nothing enchantment is too slow and too conditional in formats where games end on turn three or four. Pioneer has similar issues: the format's threats are too linear for a value engine that needs creatures to keep flowing. Commander is where Flameshadow Conjuring is genuinely strong, particularly in red-heavy creature-combo and ETB-value shells where it operates as a one-card engine for the remainder of the game.

Price Context

Current price

$3.84 cheap tier

At $3.84, Flameshadow Conjuring sits in the cheap tier — low enough to include on budget builds, high enough that it's not a bulk throwaway. It holds that price because demand is narrow but consistent, concentrated almost entirely in Commander combo shells that have no real substitute for what it does.
