Unlawful Entry gives a creature unblockable until end of turn for a single blue mana at instant speed — that's a clean, cheap combat trick that reliably converts an attack into a triggered ability or commander damage hit. It's a staple in any deck that cares about connecting with the opponent, and the cost makes it nearly free to slot.

Commander is where Unlawful Entry does its best work, slotting into any blue deck that needs guaranteed combat connections — whether that's enabling ninjutsu, stacking Voltron commander damage, or triggering saboteur abilities. In Pauper it's a legitimate tempo piece in aggressive or evasion-based builds where one unblocked creature can swing a game. Legacy and Vintage have access to it but rarely want a one-shot unblockable effect when cantripping threats and permission spells outclass it; the card doesn't see meaningful play in either format. Unlawful Entry is essentially a Commander and Pauper card — everywhere else, it's outclassed by the raw power of available alternatives.
