Sludge Titan lands and immediately locks down the board — every creature an opponent controls gets a -1/-1 counter, and anything that dies while Sludge Titan is in play feeds you a 3/3 Horror token. The cost is seven mana, which is steep, but the enter-the-battlefield effect plus the death-trigger economy means it pays for itself fast in a multiplayer game.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | not legal |
| pioneer | not legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Commander is where Sludge Titan belongs — three opponents means the enters-the-battlefield effect hits three boards at once, and any wrath or combat step immediately starts producing Horror tokens. Legacy and Vintage are legal on paper, but seven-mana creatures with no protection and no immediate win condition don't survive those formats long enough to matter. Sludge Titan is a multiplayer card through and through, and Oathbreaker gives it a similar multi-opponent context where the math on tokens-per-death works in your favor.

Price Context
Current price
$2.26 cheap tier
At $2.26, Sludge Titan sits in impulse-buy territory — low enough to slot into any budget build without deliberation. It's a new-enough card with narrow-enough appeal that the price is unlikely to climb, but it's not going to zero either; the effect is strong enough that dedicated black or -1/-1 counter decks will keep demand steady.
