About Esgaroth Garrison

Esgaroth Garrison, Creature — human soldier, designed by Leonardo Santanna first released in July 2026 in the set The Hobbit. It see play in 1 format: Vintage. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 0.01.

Esgaroth Garrison belongs in a mono-white or Boros go-wide Humans/Soldiers deck, especially Commander builds that want a creature-count payoff and enough token production to make its variable power meaningful; recruit also supports discard or reanimation synergies, though at five mana it is slow for an effect that only replaces itself and sometimes makes one token. `Adeline, Resplendent Cathar` is generally the better card: for `2W` she has the same scaling power, higher reliability, and makes a Human token every time you attack, while `Myrel, Shield of Argive` is a stronger five-mana Soldiers payoff because she protects your turn and produces a token army. Esgaroth Garrison is playable as a thematic, casual Humans/Soldiers inclusion or a budget redundancy piece, but it is unlikely to merit play in optimized lists where cheaper threats and repeatable token makers outperform it.

Rules

06/29/2026

Once a spell or ability that causes you to recruit begins to resolve, no player may take any other actions until it's done. Any responses made to the spell or ability must be made before you draw, discard, and potentially create a token.

06/29/2026

The ability that defines Esgaroth Garrison's power works in all zones, not just the battlefield. As long as Esgaroth Garrison is on the battlefield (and still a creature), that ability will count Esgaroth Garrison itself.
