Woodland Wanderer lands as a 4/4 with vigilance and trample in a two-color deck, and grows larger with every additional color in your commander's identity. The convergence cost rewards exactly the kind of mana bases Commander already builds, making this a quietly efficient threat in four- and five-color shells.

Woodland Wanderer is a Commander card through and through — convergence scales directly with the number of colors in your mana base, and four- or five-color Commander decks routinely have the fixing to cast it at full power on curve. In Modern and Pioneer it's unplayed; paying five mana across five colors for a vanilla 6/6 with keywords is not competitive in formats where your opponent untaps and kills it on turn three. Legacy and Vintage aren't interested either. Woodland Wanderer's home is a Jodah, Atraxa, or any five-color good-stuff Commander deck that can reliably produce WUBRG by turn five and wants a resilient, trampling body that demands an answer.

Price Context
Current price
$0.10 bulk tier
At $0.10, Woodland Wanderer is deep bulk — the kind of card that fills out a trade binder without moving markets. There's no meaningful demand outside casual Commander, so don't expect the price to move in either direction.
