Yoked Plowbeast card art
Yoked Plowbeast is a 6/5 with cycling for six mana — the body is fine, but six mana for a vanilla creature with no evasion and no enters-the-battlefield effect is unplayable in any competitive context. The cycling cost of two makes it a slightly less embarrassing topdeck, but there are better cyclers and better six-drops at every turn.

Yoked Plowbeast is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Vintage, Pauper, and Oathbreaker, but legal doesn't mean playable. In Pauper, the cycling tag gives it the most plausible home — cycling synergy decks can use it as a filler piece, though even there the two-mana cycle cost is on the expensive side. In Commander, a 6/5 vanilla with no text does nothing at a table where every other card has an effect stapled to it. Modern and Legacy have zero interest in this card.

Price Context

Current price

$0.06 bulk tier

At $0.06, Yoked Plowbeast sits firmly in bulk territory — the kind of card you find at the bottom of a draft chaff box. It holds no value and is unlikely to, so buy it only if a cycling-matters build genuinely needs a sixth or seventh redundant cycler at the lowest possible price.
