Is Flooded Grove good in Commander?

Flooded Grove in Commander — Combos, Decks & Price

Flooded Grove enters untapped and taps for either green or blue on its own — and when you need the other color, it converts any Forest or Island mana into the one you're short. For Tidus, Yuna's Guardian decks juggling UG mana across multiple spell types, that flexibility is worth the slot every time.

Tidus, Yuna's Guardian

Commander is where Flooded Grove does its best work — UG is one of the most common two-color combinations in the format, and a land that enters untapped, taps for either color, and filters surplus mana is exactly what those decks want. In Legacy and Vintage it's legal but rarely played, since Tropical Island outclasses it wherever raw dual land quality matters and those formats move too fast to trade mana for filtering. Modern has better options in the Triome cycle for three-color shells and shock lands for pure efficiency, so Flooded Grove doesn't see meaningful play there either. Oathbreaker follows the same logic as Commander — if your pairing is UG, the card earns its spot.

Current price

$0.78 bulk tier
