Woodwraith Corrupter turns any Forest into a 3/3 Forest Deathrattle creature — a genuinely threatening board presence — but asking six mana for a 3/3 that requires additional lands to snowball is a hard sell in any competitive context. Bulk rare for a reason.

| Format | Verdict |

Woodwraith Corrupter is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but it sees essentially zero play in any of them. In Commander, the six-mana investment for a single 3/3 token and an activated ability that demands tapping the Corrupter plus additional Forests is too slow without dedicated land-animation support — decks like Yedora, Grave Gardener can generate enough Forest creatures to make the chain meaningful, but even there better payoffs exist. In Legacy and Vintage, the card is simply outclassed by everything available at that mana cost. Modern's creature density and efficient threats make a six-mana 3/3 with a conditional tap ability unplayable.

Price Context
Current price
$0.30 bulk tier
At $0.30, Woodwraith Corrupter is firmly bulk, and that price reflects its playability ceiling accurately. Don't expect movement — niche land-animation decks aren't driving demand, and reprints aren't a concern for a card nobody is seeking out.
