Sky Terror lands as a 2/2 with flying and menace for two mana — that combination of evasion and combat resistance on a Boros creature is the whole pitch. It's a clean two-drop for General Ferrous Rokiric decks and anywhere else Boros aggro needs a cheap, annoying attacker that actually sticks.

General Ferrous Rokiric
Sky Terror is a multicolored Boros creature, so it triggers General Ferrous Rokiric's Golem-generating ability the turn it's cast — flying and menace mean the Terror pressures the air while the 4/4 Golem it spawns holds the ground.

In Commander, Sky Terror earns its slot almost exclusively in Boros or multicolor aggro builds — it's a cheap, evasive threat that punishes stumbling opponents in the early game, and the menace clause makes it annoying to block even once the table stabilizes. In Modern and Pioneer, Sky Terror competes with a much deeper pool of two-drops and rarely makes the cut outside of niche Boros tribal shells where the multicolor typing matters. Legacy and Vintage have no meaningful use for a vanilla-statted 2/2, regardless of keywords. Sky Terror is a Commander card through and through — specifically a General Ferrous Rokiric card.

Price Context
Current price
$0.27 bulk tier
At $0.27, Sky Terror is deep bulk — easy to acquire as a throw-in or cheap single. It won't appreciate; it's a commons-tier role-player with a narrow home, so grab a copy for the Rokiric build and don't think twice about the price.
