Long Feng, Grand Secretariat card art
Long Feng, Grand Secretariat puts a +1/+1 counter on every creature you control the moment it enters — no hoops, no triggers to chase. The cost is a three-mana 2/4 body that does nothing else on its own, so it earns its slot only in decks that can exploit mass counter placement, most cleanly as the engine piece that goes infinite alongside Basking Broodscale.

Format Analysis

Where it lives, where it can’t

FormatVerdict
commander
legacy

oathbreaker

Long Feng, Grand Secretariat is legal everywhere from Standard to Vintage, but competitive non-Commander formats have no interest in a three-mana 2/4 whose payoff requires a board of creatures. Commander is where it actually lives: the 100-card singleton environment naturally produces the wide boards that make a blanket +1/+1 counter distribution meaningful, and the format's tolerance for combo lines gives Long Feng a second identity as an infinite-loop enabler. Oathbreaker is a plausible home for similar reasons, though the tighter card pool makes assembling the supporting pieces harder.

Price Context

Current price

$0.16 bulk tier

At $0.16, Long Feng, Grand Secretariat is deep bulk — the kind of card you pull from a box or grab as a throw-in without thinking. Given that it anchors real combo lines, that price is unlikely to climb significantly since it has no competitive demand outside Commander, but it also means there's zero financial barrier to picking one up right now.
