Woodland Stream enters tapped and produces blue or green — it does exactly one thing, and the cost is a full tempo loss on the turn you play it. In lists like Galadriel, Elven-Queen that need both colors on a tight budget, it earns a slot, but any untapped dual upgrades it immediately.
Best Commanders
Commanders with the highest synergy
Galadriel, Elven-Queen
Galadriel, Elven-Queen sits in Simic and needs reliable access to both blue and green in the early turns to fuel her scry-and-draw engine, making Woodland Stream a natural filler slot — 58% of her decks run it precisely because budget duals are scarce and she can't afford color inconsistency.
Elrond, Master of Healing
Elrond, Master of Healing runs a wide multicolor suite that demands green and blue fixing across a large card pool, and Woodland Stream fills that role cheaply — though at only 22% inclusion, most Elrond pilots are finding better options at a modest price premium.
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 | legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Woodland Stream is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Pioneer, Vintage, Pauper, and Oathbreaker, but the only format where it sees real play is Commander. In Pauper it's technically an option, but Simic color fixing at common has better representatives in Evolving Wilds and Thornwood Falls variants. In Modern and Pioneer the bar for lands is high enough that a tapped dual with no upside doesn't compete. Commander is its home because 100-card singleton decks need every dual they can find, and at bulk pricing, Woodland Stream is a placeholder that works until you find a Hinterland Harbor or Breeding Pool.

Price Context
Current price
$0.12 bulk tier
At $0.12, Woodland Stream is deep bulk — you're not buying it, you're finding it in a draft chaff pile. It holds no financial value and will stay at floor pricing indefinitely, but that's exactly the point: it's a free color fix while you assemble better lands.
