Iridescent Tiger card art
Iridescent Tiger puts four 1/1 cat tokens on the board the turn it enters — that's immediate, wide pressure at five mana. The cost is that without a bounce engine like Temur Sabertooth, it's a one-shot token dump with no staying power.

Iridescent Tiger is a bulk rare in every format it's legal in, and that's the honest read. In Commander, token-wide strategies can use it as a one-time board contribution, but five mana for four 1/1s is a poor rate against the card density of a 99-card field. Constructed formats like Modern and Pioneer have long since outpaced this effect — token production at this price point needs immediate impact or a combo hook to matter, and Iridescent Tiger rarely delivers either outside of niche ETB loops.

Price Context

Current price

$0.14 bulk tier

At $0.14, Iridescent Tiger is deep bulk — buy it for a combo shell without hesitation, because the financial floor is already the floor. Don't expect the price to move; casual demand for five-mana token producers is thin and supply is abundant.
