Skybeast Tracker puts a 3/3 flying token into play every turn you control a creature with the greatest power on the battlefield — that's a repeating air force for three mana. The condition is more achievable than it looks in go-wide or stompy builds, and the payoff is immediate board presence.

In Commander, Skybeast Tracker occupies a narrow but real niche in green stompy builds that reliably field the biggest creature on the table — Xenagos, Ghalta, or Vorinclex shells will trigger it every upkeep without jumping through hoops. Outside Commander, the card sees essentially no competitive play: Modern and Pioneer run faster clocks where a three-mana do-nothing-until-your-next-upkeep enchantment can't compete, and Standard environments move too quickly for a conditional token generator to find a home. Pauper is where Skybeast Tracker is legal but still irrelevant, since the format's aggro and tempo decks don't want a slow enchantment reliant on winning a power race.

Price Context
Current price
$0.06 bulk tier
At $0.06, Skybeast Tracker is deep bulk — the kind of card you pull from a box rather than buy. There's no price pressure on the horizon; it sees minimal competitive play across formats, so the floor is the floor.
