Infuse untaps a permanent for a single blue mana — cheap enough to run in any shell that wants to recycle a tapped creature or land on demand. It's a niche role-player, but in Orvar, the All-Form decks it doubles as a copy trigger, which is the only context where it punches above its weight class.

Orvar, the All-Form
Orvar, the All-Form triggers off any spell that targets your own permanents, so Infuse becomes a one-mana 'copy target permanent' with the untap as a bonus — that's the entire reason it shows up in roughly 14% of Orvar lists.
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 | legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Infuse is legal in Commander, Legacy, Vintage, Pauper, and Oathbreaker, but Commander is the only format where it sees meaningful play. In Pauper it's technically available but too narrow — there are better cantrips and untap effects competing for that slot. Legacy and Vintage have access to far more efficient blue spells, so Infuse never registers there. In Commander, the card lives almost entirely in Orvar, the All-Form lists, where the copy-trigger upside transforms a marginal effect into a real engine piece.

Price Context
Current price
$0.13 bulk tier
At $0.13, Infuse is deep bulk — pick it up from any common bin or order it as a throw-in. Demand is too narrow for the price to move meaningfully in either direction.
