The Last Ride

In Commander, The Last Ride fits sacrifice and recursion shells that want cheap, repeatable ways to cash out creatures — it's not a staple, but it finds a home in the right 99. Constructed formats like Modern and Pioneer have faster, more efficient sacrifice outlets that push it out of competitive consideration entirely. Legacy and Vintage have the same problem compounded: the card doesn't do enough on rate for those environments. Standard is where The Last Ride is most likely to see incidental play simply because the card pool is shallow enough that its flexibility matters.
