Stonewright
Creature — Human Shaman
Soulbond (You may pair this creature with another unpaired creature when either enters. They remain paired for as long as you control both of them.)
As long as Stonewright is paired with another creature, each of those creatures has ": This creature gets +1/+0 until end of turn."

Stonewright lets you spend two mana to give any red creature you control +1/+0 and first strike until end of turn, as long as you control a Mountain — serviceable in the abstract, but the soulbond mechanic means it does nothing the turn it enters without a partner. A narrow, low-ceiling card that earns a slot only in dedicated soulbond or Mountain-matters shells.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | legal |
| pioneer | not legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Stonewright is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but sees virtually no competitive play in any of them. In Commander it's the most plausible home — red creature decks with a Mountain sub-theme, like Zirilan of the Claw or Magda, Brazen Outlaw builds, can activate it repeatedly, though the two-mana activation rarely competes with better uses of a turn. Legacy and Vintage have access to far more efficient combat tricks and lord effects, so Stonewright never surfaces there. Modern's red aggro decks move too fast for a soulbond payoff that requires a Mountain on board and a mana sink each combat.

Price Context
Current price
$0.06 bulk tier
At $0.06, Stonewright is deep bulk — you're picking it out of a commons box, not buying it. That price is a ceiling as much as a floor; demand isn't coming, so don't expect it to move.
