Wolfbat card art
Wolfbat enters as a 3/3 flyer with haste for five mana — the stats are below rate, but Zoraline, Cosmos Caller turns every nightbound flip into a trigger, and Wolfbat's day/night dependency makes it a reliable engine piece in that shell. Outside dedicated day/night decks, it's a vanilla beater that won't make the cut.

Zoraline, Cosmos Caller rewards you for forcing day/night transitions, and Wolfbat's daybound/nightbound identity means it naturally feeds that cycle while providing a haste-enabled threat that can attack immediately after flipping.

In Commander, Wolfbat is a niche include that belongs only in dedicated day/night decks built around Zoraline, Cosmos Caller — it has no business in generic green or black creature strategies. Across constructed formats like Standard, Pioneer, and Modern, Wolfbat doesn't meet the efficiency bar; a five-mana 3/3 flyer with haste is the kind of rate that gets ignored when stronger options exist on the same axis. Legacy and Vintage are strictly out of the question. Wolfbat is a Commander-only card, and even there it's conditional.

Price Context

Current price

$0.13 bulk tier

At $0.13, Wolfbat sits firmly in bulk territory, which accurately reflects its narrow application. It's not a card that holds or climbs in value — pick it up freely if you're building the archetype, and don't think twice about it otherwise.
