Moonveil Regent card art
Moonveil Regent replaces your entire hand with fresh cards the moment you cast a spell — that's an immediate, on-board card advantage engine that scales with spell volume. The cost is four mana for a 4/4 with no protection, so it dies to any removal spell before you see a single card; think of it as a Flame Jab that refills your grip once before it needs to survive.

Moonveil Regent is a Commander card — the multicolored-matters trigger lines up cleanly with the format's naturally high density of gold spells, and four mana is a reasonable curve slot in a 100-card deck. In Modern and Pioneer it competes with cheaper, more resilient threats and sees essentially no competitive play; casual kitchen-table brews are its ceiling in those formats. Legacy and Vintage have no interest in a four-mana 4/4 with a conditional draw trigger. Stick to Commander, specifically spell-slinger or multicolor-matters builds where Moonveil Regent can fire its ability two or three times in a single turn.

Price Context

Current price

$0.49 bulk tier

At $0.49, Moonveil Regent is firmly bulk — easy to pick up as a throw-in or cheap singles order. Bulk mythics rarely climb without a competitive breakout, and this one has no realistic path to constructed relevance, so treat it as a low-cost inclusion rather than a hold.
