Mischievous Sneakling copies the triggered abilities of every nontoken creature you control — for three mana — which means it multiplies your engine without adding redundant pieces. The ask is minimal; the ceiling is enormous in any deck that chains triggered abilities.

In Commander, Mischievous Sneakling earns its slot in any deck whose creatures generate triggered abilities — attack triggers, death triggers, ETB-adjacent chains — because three mana for a blanket copy effect scales with every creature you add. Outside Commander, the card is legal across every major format but hasn't found a competitive home; triggered-ability-matters strategies in Modern and Pioneer tend to want more redundancy than a single three-drop copy effect provides. In Standard it's a fringe build-around at best, dependent on the current card pool delivering enough density to justify the slot. Pauper is the one non-Commander format worth watching — if a triggered-ability engine emerges at common, Mischievous Sneakling is already there and waiting.

Price Context
Current price
$0.23 bulk tier
At $0.23, Mischievous Sneakling sits firmly in bulk territory — easy to pick up as a throw-in or cheap singles order. The effect is unique enough that if triggered-ability commanders continue to appear in new sets, demand could nudge it out of bulk, but buy it now for the deck rather than the price.
