Pumpkin Bombardment turns every token or expendable creature into a repeatable damage source, and it does it at a cost low enough that Norman Osborn decks slot it in without a second thought. This is a payoff card, not a support card — run it when you're already generating the fuel, cut it when you're not.

Norman Osborn
Norman Osborn's Goblin tokens are exactly the cheap, throwaway bodies Pumpkin Bombardment wants to fling, letting you convert the natural churn of the Osborn engine into direct damage and closing out games that might otherwise stall on board.

In Commander, Pumpkin Bombardment earns its slot in token-heavy and sacrifice-matters builds, where the redundancy of a 100-card format makes it easy to assemble the engine it needs. It's legal across every major format, but the card's power scales with density of sacrifice fodder — a dynamic that Commander supports far better than any 60-card format. In Standard, Modern, or Pioneer, dedicated sacrifice shells might find a narrow use case, but Pumpkin Bombardment competes with faster, more focused payoffs and rarely makes the cut. Pauper is the one 60-card home worth watching: if token generators align, the low floor matters less.
