Gliding Licid turns itself into a flying enchantment on a creature you control — a fragile, mana-hungry trick that demands two mana to attach and can be broken by any instant-speed removal on the host. Outside of niche Licid synergy builds, the payoff doesn't justify the setup cost.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | not legal |
| pioneer | not legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Gliding Licid is legal in Commander, Legacy, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but sees essentially no play in any of them. In Commander, the flying-granting effect is so cheap to replicate with Auras or equipment that Gliding Licid's cumbersome activation and vulnerability to removal make it a non-starter. Legacy and Vintage have no interest — the effect is irrelevant at those power levels. Oathbreaker follows the same logic as Commander: better options exist at lower opportunity cost.

Price Context
Current price
$0.16 bulk tier
At $0.16, Gliding Licid sits firmly in bulk territory — you're paying for cardboard, not power. That price is unlikely to move; there's no competitive demand pulling it upward, and it will stay a quarter-bin card indefinitely.
