Havoc Demon hits the board and immediately strips every creature your opponents control of all their power and toughness until end of turn — a one-sided Damnation that leaves your own board intact. The catch is the six-mana cost and the fact that it only survives if you built around that fragility.
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 |
Commander is where Havoc Demon earns its slot — sacrifice-focused and Demon-tribal decks use the enters-the-battlefield trigger repeatedly, and six mana is reachable in a format that actively supports ramp. In Legacy and Vintage, six mana for a conditional effect with no protection stapled to it is simply uncompetitive; neither format will ever cast this with serious intent. Oathbreaker follows the same logic as Commander at a smaller scale: it can fit, but the six-mana ask is steeper when games end faster.

Price Context
Current price
$0.13 bulk tier
At $0.13, Havoc Demon is deep bulk — the kind of card you pull from a box rather than buy. That price is stable because demand is narrow and supply is plentiful, so don't expect it to move in either direction.
