Is Murmuring Bosk good in Commander?

Murmuring Bosk in Commander — Combos, Decks & Price

Murmuring Bosk is a Forest that taps for white and black mana — a land doing the work of a dual while remaining fetchable by any Forest-tutor in the game. The only cost is a Treefolk tribal identity that rarely matters outside Doran, the Siege Tower builds, making it a near-free slot in any Abzan or Sultai shell that wants its mana fixed.

Commanders with the highest synergy

01

Doran, the Siege Tower

63.0% of decks · synergy 0.45

Murmuring Bosk is an automatic inclusion in Doran, the Siege Tower decks — it's a Forest that fixes all three colors and is a Treefolk itself, feeding synergy with every tribal payoff the deck runs.

02

Frodo, Adventurous Hobbit // Sam, Loyal Attendant

51.0% of decks · synergy 0.33

Frodo, Adventurous Hobbit // Sam, Loyal Attendant runs Abzan colors and needs clean three-color fixing early; Murmuring Bosk slots in as a fetchable dual that never enters tapped.

03

Merry, Warden of Isengard // Pippin, Warden of Isengard

40.1% of decks · synergy 0.22

Merry, Warden of Isengard // Pippin, Warden of Isengard leans on consistent white-black-green mana to suit up creatures quickly, and Murmuring Bosk provides that fixing without costing a tempo hit on entry.

04

Doran, Besieged by Time

34.4% of decks · synergy 0.16

Doran, Besieged by Time demands the same three-color base and shares the Treefolk tribal axis, so Murmuring Bosk does double duty as both a mana fixer and a synergy piece.

In Commander, Murmuring Bosk earns its slot in any Abzan or Sultai deck that can search it out with Cultivate, Crop Rotation, or fetchlands — being a Forest is the whole game. Legacy and Vintage both have it legal, but dedicated dual lands and fetchland packages make Murmuring Bosk a fringe consideration there outside niche Treefolk tribal shells. Modern is the format where it sees the most competitive daylight beyond Commander, specifically in Treefolk strategies that want as many Forest-typed duals as possible. Pioneer and Standard have never had access to it, and Pauper is out given its rarity.
