Twigwalker enters with two +1/+1 counters and can sacrifice itself to give two target creatures trample and indestructible until end of turn — a combat trick stapled to a body. The cost is three mana for a 1/1 base, so you're running it for the activated ability, not the stats.

Where it lives, where it can’t

Commander is where Twigwalker earns its slot, specifically in green decks that want to push through a combat step or protect key attackers from a board wipe at instant speed. The sacrifice-for-indestructible mode is most relevant when you're swinging with a handful of creatures that opponents want to block or wrath away. In Legacy and Vintage, Twigwalker is legal but too slow and low-impact to see play — those formats demand more than a three-mana creature with a conditional activated ability. Oathbreaker shares Commander's multiplayer logic, so the same token and counter synergies that make it passable there apply here too.

Price Context
Current price
$0.10 bulk tier
At $0.10, Twigwalker is deep bulk — you're paying almost nothing for a utility piece. That price is stable by definition; there's no demand pressure to move it, and it won't spike unless a future combo or commander creates a specific reason to run it en masse.
