Undercity Scavenger enters, lets you sacrifice a creature to grow itself and scry 2 — solid value stapled onto a reasonable body. The cost is that it needs a sacrifice target on entry to do anything beyond vanilla, which makes it dependent on board state.

Undercity Scavenger is a Pauper-legal common, and that's where it sees the most legitimate consideration — sacrifice synergies at common rarity are scarce, and the built-in scry 2 keeps the value real. In Commander, it competes against a deep pool of sacrifice outlets that either cost less mana, don't eat a slot, or do more when the creature dies. Legacy, Modern, and Pioneer have faster clocks and tighter curves that leave no room for a four-mana creature doing this little at rate. Treat this as a Pauper role-player, not a cross-format staple.

Price Context
Current price
$0.03 bulk tier
At $0.03, Undercity Scavenger is pure bulk — you're picking it out of a common box, not a store inventory. That price reflects the ceiling accurately; the card does what it does, but demand will never push it off the bulk floor.
