Sky Scourer is a 2/1 flier for two mana that gets +1/+0 for each opponent you have — in a four-player Commander pod, that's a 5/1 flier on turn two. The stat line is real, but it tops out there: no evasion beyond flying, no enters-the-battlefield effect, no upside past the headcount bonus.

Sky Scourer's scaling clause is built for Commander — three opponents means it enters as a 5/1, which is an absurd body for two mana in a multiplayer context. Outside of Commander, the bonus collapses to +1/+0 in 1v1 formats, leaving you with a vanilla 3/1 flier for two, which is uncompetitive in Modern, Pioneer, or Legacy. Pauper is the one exception worth noting: commons with above-rate stats see play there, and a 3/1 flier for two occupies a reasonable slot in aggressive blue or Dimir skies lists. Oathbreaker mirrors Commander's multiplayer math, so the same four-player math applies.

Price Context
Current price
$0.03 bulk tier
Sky Scourer is deep bulk at $0.03 — you're paying for cardboard and shipping, not the card. At that price there's no floor left to drop through, so it holds its non-value indefinitely; pick it up in bulk lots or grab four copies for pocket change if the Pauper skies build calls for it.
