Mogis's Marauder

Creature — Human Berserker

When this creature enters, up to X target creatures each gain intimidate and haste until end of turn, where X is your devotion to black. (A creature with intimidate can't be blocked except by artifact creatures and/or creatures that share a color with it. Each {B} in the mana costs of permanents you control counts toward your devotion to black.)

Mogis's Marauder card art
Mogis's Marauder enters and immediately grants up to X creatures intimidate and haste, where X is your devotion to black — that's a full alpha strike out of nowhere for the cost of a three-mana 2/2. Outside of Horobi, Death's Wail and similarly black-heavy shells, the body is irrelevant, but the enters-the-battlefield effect is the whole point.

Horobi, Death's Wail runs mono-black with high devotion almost by definition, which means Mogis's Marauder reliably pumps four, five, or six creatures with haste and intimidate the turn it lands — exactly the kind of one-shot alpha strike a Horobi deck needs to close games before opponents stabilize.

Mogis's Marauder is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Pioneer, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but sees virtually no play outside Commander. In eternal formats it competes with faster, more consistent haste enablers and can't justify the three-mana investment for a 2/2 body. In Commander, devotion scales naturally — black decks routinely hit five or six pips by mid-game, turning Mogis's Marauder into a game-ending swing enabler that doubles as a finisher rather than just a support piece.

Price Context

Current price

$0.26 bulk tier

At $0.26, Mogis's Marauder sits firmly in bulk territory and is unlikely to move — it's a niche role-player with a narrow home. Grab a copy freely; there's no financial argument against owning one if you're building a black-devotion Commander deck.
