Greater Stone Spirit is a 4/4 for six mana that can pump any of your Earth Elementals or Mountain-walking creatures and survive a fight with most ground blockers — but six mana for a conditional anthem effect stapled to a vanilla body is a bad deal in any powered environment. There are stronger six-drops in virtually every deck that wants this effect.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | legal |
| pioneer | not legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Greater Stone Spirit is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but legal doesn't mean playable. In Commander, the closest argument for it is a mono-red or Elemental tribal shell where the pump ability has multiple targets, but even there the six-mana price tag competes against far more impactful options. In Legacy and Vintage, the card is simply not on the radar — the formats are too fast and too efficient for a vanilla-adjacent six-drop. Modern has enough quality Elemental payoffs that Greater Stone Spirit still doesn't make the cut.

Price Context
Current price
$0.05 bulk tier
At $0.05, Greater Stone Spirit is deep bulk — the price reflects exactly how little demand exists for it. Don't expect that floor to move; this is a card you pull out of a common box, not one you track.
