Myr Incubator turns every artifact in your library into a 1/1 Myr token on the spot — the floor is a dozen bodies, the ceiling is a game-ending board state. The six-mana activation is steep, but you only need to do it once.

Commander is where Myr Incubator actually lives — artifact-heavy decks like Breya, Etherium Shaper or Emry, Lurker of the Loch can flip it for fifteen or more tokens in a single activation, which closes games immediately. Legacy and Vintage have access to it but zero reason to run it; the activation cost is crippling in formats that win on turns one through three. Modern is technically legal but the same problem applies — six mana for a sorcery-speed effect gets you killed before the tokens matter. Stick to Commander, where the artifact density is high and the game goes long enough to make the payoff worthwhile.

Price Context
Current price
$0.38 bulk tier
At $0.38, Myr Incubator is firmly bulk — you're paying almost nothing for an effect that routinely wins Commander games. Bulk rares with genuine combo potential tend to stay cheap until they spike on a reprint or viral deck, so pick up copies now rather than later.
