Forced Worship card art
Forced Worship locks a creature out of attacking or blocking permanently — and because it bounces back to hand rather than going to the graveyard when the creature leaves play, engines like Displacer Kitten can reset it onto a new target every turn. The one mana to reattach is a real cost, but the repeatable neutralization is the whole point.

In Commander, Forced Worship is a niche piece in blink and bounce loops rather than a general removal spell — most tables want unconditional answers, and this leaves the creature alive. Pauper is where it gets more serious, giving white a cheap repeatable way to neuter a threat in a format light on hard removal. Legacy and Vintage have enough efficient threats and combo lines that Forced Worship rarely warrants a slot. It's legal in both but competes with strictly faster answers.

Price Context

Current price

$0.12 bulk tier

At $0.12, Forced Worship is deep bulk — it costs less than a sleeve. That price won't move unless a combo line breaks it into relevance, so treat it as a free inclusion, not a spec.
