Gran Pulse Ochu lands as a 5/4 with reach and deathtouch for five mana — that combination answers flying threats and trades up with anything on the ground. It's a role-player, not a finisher, and Fynn, the Fangbearer is the reason you'd ever build around it rather than slot in a cheaper deathtoucher.
Best Commanders
Commanders with the highest synergy
Fynn, the Fangbearer
Fynn, the Fangbearer wins through deathtouch creatures dealing combat damage, and Gran Pulse Ochu's built-in deathtouch means it poisons an opponent on contact without any equipment or aura support — it's one of the bigger bodies in that slot and pulls 30% inclusion for a reason.
Kirri, Talented Sprout
Kirri, Talented Sprout rewards going wide with +1/+1 counter synergies, and Gran Pulse Ochu's size and deathtouch make it a credible threat that demands an answer before Kirri's counters spiral out of control.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | legal |
| pioneer | legal |
| standard | legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Gran Pulse Ochu is legal across every major format but sees essentially zero competitive play outside Commander — a five-mana 5/4 with deathtouch and reach doesn't move the needle in Modern or Legacy, where the bar for five-mana creatures is a game-ending threat. In Pioneer and Standard it's similarly outclassed by creatures that offer more immediate impact at the same cost. Commander is where Gran Pulse Ochu earns its slot: the deathtouch-matters theme built around Fynn, the Fangbearer gives it a clear home, reach patches a real gap in green's defense against fliers, and the format's slower pace lets a 5/4 do meaningful work.

Price Context
Current price
$0.15 bulk tier
At $0.15, Gran Pulse Ochu is deep bulk — you're paying for a functional creature, not a scarce one. Bulk commons and uncommons at this price point rarely appreciate unless a breakout deck drives sudden demand, so grab copies for the cost of a sleeve and don't expect the number to move.
