Thran Weaponry gives all creatures +2/+2 on your upkeep unless an opponent pays 2 — a repeating anthem that opponents either let through or spend mana to stop. The political friction is the point, but any deck with opponents who consistently pay the cost should look elsewhere.

Thran Weaponry is a Commander card through and through: the political texture of a repeating opponent choice matters in a four-player game in a way it never would in a one-on-one format. In Legacy and Vintage, where it's technically legal, no competitive deck wants a four-mana enchantment with a trivially payable opt-out. Commander is where Thran Weaponry actually functions — specifically in aggressive or go-wide strategies where the cumulative pressure of each upkeep either grows your board or drains opponents' mana over multiple turns. In Oathbreaker the same logic applies at a smaller scale, though the two-player-adjacent nature of the format blunts the political angle considerably.

Price Context
Current price
$0.37 bulk tier
At $0.37, Thran Weaponry is deep bulk — a sub-dollar pickup with essentially no buy-in risk. It's been inexpensive for years and nothing about its demand profile suggests that changes, so grab it if the slot fits and don't think twice about the cost.
