Yasova Dragonclaw steals any creature with power 4 or less at the start of combat — no spell slot required, just mana and a target. The cost is real: you need at least one opponent running creatures in that range, and pumping Yasova's power to raise the threshold means dedicating resources that could go elsewhere.

Yasova Dragonclaw is a Commander card — the triggered theft ability is built for the long game of multiplayer, where opponents constantly present targets and a 4/2 trample body is relevant early. In Legacy, Modern, and Pioneer she's legal but sees essentially no play; three mana for a creature that demands a sacrifice outlet and mana investment just to convert a temporary steal into a permanent one is too situational against interaction-heavy two-player fields. Commander is where the math works: steal a creature, swing, sac it before end of combat, repeat every turn while opponents rebuild.
