Loamcrafter Faun puts a land from your graveyard directly onto the battlefield — not into your hand — the moment it enters, which is the whole reason to run it. The cost is a 2/1 body for three mana that does nothing else, so outside of Szarel, Genesis Shepherd and similar graveyard-land engines, it's a one-trick creature competing for slots with better ramp.

Commanders with the highest synergy
Szarel, Genesis Shepherd
Szarel, Genesis Shepherd mills your library aggressively, stocking the graveyard with lands that Loamcrafter Faun can immediately cash in for real mana acceleration — the enters-the-battlefield trigger lines up perfectly with Szarel's repeated reanimation loops.
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 Loamcrafter Faun actually belongs — graveyard-land synergies are common enough in green that the enters-the-battlefield trigger generates real value, especially in decks running self-mill or landfall payoffs. Legacy and Vintage permit it, but neither format is looking for a 2/1 that recovers one land at sorcery speed when faster, more redundant options exist. Oathbreaker is the only other constructed format where it's legal, and the same Commander logic applies at smaller scale: pair it with a self-mill planeswalker strategy and the trigger earns its slot, otherwise cut it.

Price Context
Current price
$0.11 bulk tier
At $0.11, Loamcrafter Faun is bulk — you're not making a financial decision here, you're making a deckbuilding one. Bulk rares rarely spike unless a new commander breaks them wide open, so don't hold copies expecting movement; just buy the single if the deck wants it.
