Puca's Eye enters as a 1/1, and if you control the most lands, it grows into a 3/3 flier — a reasonable threat for one mana. The catch is that "most lands" condition is rarely guaranteed in Commander, making this a win-more card that underperforms exactly when you need it most.

In Commander, Puca's Eye is a fringe inclusion at best — the four-player table almost always has a dedicated lands player who outpaces you, and a 1/1 that never upgrades is a wasted slot. Competitive 60-card formats like Modern and Pioneer have no interest in a conditional 3/3 for one mana when Delver of Secrets and Monastery Swiftspear set the baseline. Legacy and Vintage ignore it entirely. Standard is the one context where Puca's Eye could briefly see play in a land-heavy green shell during a weak format window, but even there the condition is too matchup-dependent to rely on.

At $0.11, Puca's Eye is deep bulk — you're paying for cardboard, not power. Nothing about its design trajectory suggests it moves out of this tier.
