Venomsac Lagac puts a repeatable poison-counter threat on the board — every time it deals combat damage to a player, that player gets a poison counter — for three mana on a 3/2 body. The rate is passable in dedicated infect or poison strategies, but outside those shells it does nothing a better three-drop couldn't do faster.

In Commander, Venomsac Lagac earns a slot almost exclusively in poison-counter builds — Atraxa, Praetors' Voice, Ixhel, Scion of Atraxa, or any shell trying to stack all ten counters on a single opponent. Pauper is the format where it could see the most real play, since the poison-counter toolbox is thin at common and a repeatable source has genuine value in a dedicated aggro list. In Standard, Pioneer, and Modern, Venomsac Lagac competes against faster, harder-hitting infect threats and won't make most cuts.

Price Context
Current price
$0.08 bulk tier
At $0.08, Venomsac Lagac is deep bulk — grab a playset without thinking twice if you're building around poison. Bulk commons rarely climb unless a mechanic breaks out in a competitive format, and poison isn't there yet.
