Vithian Renegades destroys any artifact on entry — no targeting restriction, no mana sink, just a 3/2 body and a permanent gone. Three mana for unconditional artifact removal stapled to a creature is a clean rate, and the enter-the-battlefield trigger makes it flicker- and reanimate-friendly.

Commander is where Vithian Renegades earns its slot — artifact threats are everywhere, and any deck running red with a flicker or reanimation package gets repeatable removal from a single card. In Legacy and Vintage, it's outclassed by instants like Wear and By Force that don't ask you to tap out for a 3/2, so it doesn't see competitive play there. Modern is the same story: the format moves too fast for a three-mana sorcery-speed creature to do removal work. Oathbreaker follows Commander logic closely enough that the same flicker shells can use it, though the smaller game size makes the body less relevant.

Price Context
Current price
$0.18 bulk tier
At $0.18, Vithian Renegades is deep bulk — you're paying for cardboard and postage, not the effect. That price is stable because demand is narrow; it won't spike unless a popular flicker commander pulls it into the spotlight.
