About Cauldron Familiar

Cauldron Familiar, Creature — cat, designed by Milivoj Ćeran first released in Sep, 2019 in the set Throne of Eldraine and was printed exactly in 5 different ways. It see play in 2 formats: Commander and Pauper. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 13.96. It's a key card in 14 combos.

A deck that focuses on sacrificing and recurring creatures, such as a sacrifice or aristocrats deck, would benefit from including Cauldron Familiar. While it provides incremental life gain and loss for opponents, its ability to return from the graveyard by sacrificing a Food token can create a loop that generates value over time. However, there are potentially better cards like Blood Artist or Carrion Feeder that offer more impactful effects in similar strategies, so Cauldron Familiar may not always be the optimal choice depending on the specific build of the deck.

If an effect refers to a Food, it means any Food artifact, not just a Food artifact token. For example, you can sacrifice Gingerbrute to activate the last ability of Tempting Witch.

You can’t activate Cauldron Familiar’s last ability unless it’s in your graveyard.
