Gang of Devils enters and deals 3 damage split any way across any targets — immediate board presence stapled to a 3/3 body for six mana. The rate is too slow for competitive formats, but in casual Commander it chips away a blocker, pings a planeswalker, or just drains a face while replacing itself with a creature.

Gang of Devils is a Commander card through and through — six mana is fine when you're playing a 40-life multiplayer game and the free 3 damage on entry can pick off mana dorks or close out a weakened opponent. In Legacy, Modern, and Vintage it's unplayable; nothing at six mana competes when the format's threats end games on turn two or three. Oathbreaker shares Commander's casual DNA, so the same logic applies there on a smaller scale, though the 20-life total makes the entry damage marginally more meaningful.

Price Context
Current price
$0.18 bulk tier
At $0.18, Gang of Devils is deep bulk — you'll find copies in any commons box or thrown into trade binders for free. Don't expect that to move; there's no competitive demand pulling the price up, so it stays a quarter-or-less pickup indefinitely.
