Resilient Khenra enters, pumps a creature, and when it dies it can come back and do it again — the eternalize cost is steep at six mana, but the floor is a two-mana 2/2 that permanently boosts your best attacker. It earns its slot anywhere that wants repeated +1/+1 counter payoffs without spending a spell slot on an Aura.

In Commander, Resilient Khenra fits cleanly into +1/+1 counter decks and go-wide aggro lists that want cheap, recurring threats — the eternalize trigger after a board wipe is a genuine late-game reset button. In Modern and Pioneer it's too slow: a 2/2 for two with a six-mana activated ability can't keep pace with the format's removal density and tempo demands. Legacy and Vintage are total non-starters. Oathbreaker mirrors the Commander read — if your planeswalker wants to stack counters, Resilient Khenra provides two separate triggers for one card.

Price Context
Current price
$0.12 bulk tier
At $0.12, Resilient Khenra is deep bulk — you're picking it out of a commons box, not the singles binder. That price is stable; it was a draft uncommon with no competitive demand, so don't expect movement in either direction.
