Morkrut Behemoth card art
Morkrut Behemoth lands as a 7/6 with menace for six mana — real stats, real keyword, zero setup required as long as a creature died this turn. The cost is that the condition isn't always guaranteed, and seven mana for vanilla power in Commander is a hard sell when your graveyard synergies aren't already online.

Morkrut Behemoth is a Pauper-legal common, and that's where it has the most plausible home — black sacrifice and aristocrats shells in that format can reliably trigger the undying evil clause and close games with a 7/6 menace. In Commander, the bar for a six-mana creature is high: it needs to either win the game on entry, protect itself, or enable a combo, and Morkrut Behemoth does none of those things reliably enough to compete with the format's density of threats. Legacy, Modern, and Pioneer are non-starters — the card doesn't interact with those formats' engines at any meaningful rate.

Price Context

Current price

$0.15 bulk tier

At $0.15, Morkrut Behemoth is deep bulk — you're paying for cardboard and shipping, not the card. That price is stable by definition: there's no demand pressure to push it up and no reprint risk to push it down.
