Plow Through clears a blocker and draws a card on the same line — that combination on an instant at two mana is legitimately good. It's the kind of removal-cantrip hybrid that belongs in any aggressive white Commander deck that wants to push damage through.

In Commander, Plow Through earns its slot in go-wide or voltron strategies that need to close games through blockers without spending a full card to do it — the cantrip means the tempo loss is near zero. In competitive 1v1 formats like Modern and Pioneer, it competes against a crowded field of cheaper interaction, and the sorcery-speed exile clause on the card draw keeps it off the main in most lists. Legacy and Vintage have even less patience for two-mana combat tricks regardless of the upside. Plow Through is at its best in Commander, where card advantage matters more and the single-target combat trick is underplayed relative to its actual impact.
