Selhoff Entomber enters the battlefield and forces an opponent to mill two cards or return a creature card from their graveyard to your hand — that's a two-mode ETB stapled to a 2/2 flash body for three mana. The flash clause is the real hook, letting you leave up interaction and drop this at end of turn, but three mana for this rate is middling unless you're looping the ETB.

In Commander, Selhoff Entomber fits narrowest in zombie tribal or reanimator shells that can abuse the ETB through blink or sacrifice loops — outside those contexts, a 2/2 flash for three that mills two is too low-impact for a 100-card singleton format. In Pauper, the flash body at common makes it worth a second look in self-mill or graveyard-value strategies, where the creature-return mode doubles as hand refill. Modern and Pioneer have enough efficient three-drops that Selhoff Entomber doesn't clear the bar in any competitive archetype. Legacy and Vintage are non-starters for a card at this rate.

Price Context
Current price
$0.16 bulk tier
At $0.16, Selhoff Entomber is deep bulk — easy to acquire, zero financial risk. Bulk commons and uncommons at this price floor don't move unless a combo or format shift pushes demand, and nothing on the horizon suggests that here.
