Magnetic Snuffler card art
Magnetic Snuffler enters the battlefield and immediately searches out any artifact with a counter on it, stapling a tutor onto a body for four mana. The cost is real — four mana for a 2/2 is a steep rate — but pairing it with Nim Deathmantle turns that enters-the-battlefield trigger into a repeatable toolbox engine that justifies the slot.

Magnetic Snuffler is a Commander card through and through — the format's slower pace and artifact-counter synergies give the tutor trigger room to matter, and the toolbox value compounds across a long game. In Legacy, Modern, or Pioneer, a 2/2 for four mana that doesn't affect the board immediately is unplayable on rate, and the artifact-counter niche is too narrow to compete. Standard and Vintage are legal but irrelevant; no deck in those formats wants this effect at this cost.

Price Context

Current price

$0.11 bulk tier

At $0.11, Magnetic Snuffler is pure bulk — easy to acquire and easy to cut without financial regret. Deep synergy picks like this rarely move off bulk pricing unless a new artifact-counter commander breaks out and drives demand.
