About Muddle, the Ever-Changing

Muddle, the Ever-Changing, Legendary creature — elemental otter shapeshifter, designed by Andrew Mar first released in Apr, 2026 in the set Secrets of Strixhaven Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 1.39.

Muddle, the Ever-Changing would fit best in a **UR (Izzet) spellslinger tempo or midrange deck** that plays a high density of instants and sorceries while also running a suite of strong nonlegendary creatures with powerful attack triggers, combat damage triggers, or static abilities worth copying—think creatures like Combat Celebrant, Inferno Titan, Dockside Extortionist (if nonlegendary were possible, though it isn’t), or value engines like Young Pyromancer–style bodies that scale with combat. The key is abusing the temporary copy plus myriad to multiply powerful attack triggers across multiple opponents, making it particularly appealing in **Commander**, where myriad scales best. However, at four mana in competitive formats, it’s likely too slow and setup-dependent compared to more efficient threats like Murktide Regent, Seasoned Pyromancer, or even Saheeli, Sublime Artificer in spellslinger shells; in Commander, it competes with stronger, more consistent copy engines like Sakashima
