Valkyrie's Sword equips for three mana and grants +2/+1 plus flying — a modest stat boost at a cost that doesn't justify the slot in most decks. Unless you're in a dedicated Aura or Equipment synergy shell that cares about the subtype, there are stronger options at every price point.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | legal |
| pioneer | legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Valkyrie's Sword is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Pioneer, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but competitive play in any of those formats has no interest in a three-mana equip that trades raw efficiency for flying. In Commander, it finds the narrowest home in voltron builds that specifically want Equipment count — think Sram, Senior Edificer or Danitha Capashen, Paragon, where the card draw or cost reduction makes the low power ceiling tolerable. Outside that niche, Colossus Hammer, Shadowspear, or Sword of Fire and Ice outclass it at every table.

Price Context
Current price
$0.20 bulk tier
At $0.20, Valkyrie's Sword sits firmly in bulk territory, and that price is unlikely to move — the card sees no competitive demand to push it higher. Pick it up if a budget voltron build genuinely needs the Equipment count, but don't expect it to appreciate.
