Forum of Amity puts a +1/+1 counter on each creature you control at the start of your end step — no activation cost, just a land that scales your whole board every single turn. The catch is that it enters tapped, which means it competes directly with every other utility land asking the same price; run it when the incremental counters matter, cut it when tempo does.
Best Commanders
Commanders with the highest synergy
Killian, Decisive Mentor
Killian, Decisive Mentor reduces the cost of spells that target creatures, which means the deck is already built around stacking counters and Auras — Forum of Amity slots in as a free, repeating counter source that triggers on every end step without spending a spell slot or mana.

In Commander, Forum of Amity earns its slot in any deck that cares about +1/+1 counters at scale — the longer the game, the more free stats it generates across a wide board. Outside Commander, the bar is much higher: 60-card formats demand lands that either produce mana efficiently or win the game outright, and a tapped land that slowly grows creatures rarely clears that bar in Modern or Pioneer. Pauper creature-go-wide strategies could theoretically use it, but the enter-tapped penalty is brutal in a format defined by speed. Standard is the one exception worth watching if a dedicated counters deck emerges with enough redundancy to absorb the tempo loss.

Price Context
Current price
$0.20 bulk tier
At $0.20, Forum of Amity sits firmly in bulk territory — you're paying almost nothing for a repeatable effect that would cost mana on any other permanent. Bulk rares with narrow applications tend to stay cheap, so there's no reason to hesitate on picking up copies now if the deck calls for it.
