Scourgemark slaps a creature with intimidate and leaves behind a +1/+1 counter when it hits the graveyard — two effects stapled to a two-mana enchantment. It's narrow enough that only dedicated graveyard-recursion or enchantment-matters builds will want it, but in those shells it punches above its price.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | legal |
| pioneer | legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
In Commander, Scourgemark earns its slot in enchantress decks that care about the graveyard — recursion loops turn the death trigger into a repeatable counter engine. Pauper is where Scourgemark actually sees competitive air: intimidate is a real evasion keyword at common, and the lingering counter matters in a format where small creatures trade constantly. Modern and Legacy have far better aura options, so Scourgemark doesn't make the cut there. Pioneer and Oathbreaker are effectively the same story — too many superior alternatives at the same mana cost.

Price Context
Current price
$0.09 bulk tier
At $0.09, Scourgemark is deep bulk — grab a playset for under fifty cents and don't think twice about it. The price reflects honest demand: it's a niche role-player, not a card that's likely to spike.
