About Breaker of Armies

Breaker of Armies, Creature — eldrazi, designed by Richard Wright first released in Oct, 2015 in the set Battle for Zendikar and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It see play in 2 formats: Commander and Casual. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.67.

A deck focused on overwhelming the opponent with a large number of creatures would benefit from using Breaker of Armies, as it forces all opposing creatures to block it, potentially clearing a path for other creatures to attack freely. However, there are better options such as Emrakul, the Promised End, which not only has a powerful effect upon entering the battlefield but also offers more versatility and impact overall. While Breaker of Armies can be situationally useful, it may not be the most optimal choice for competitive play compared to other Eldrazi creatures available in Magic: The Gathering.

Rules

08/25/15

If more than one Breaker of Armies is attacking, the controller of each creature that could block them chooses which one that creature blocks. In this case, creatures that can block multiple creatures must block as many attacking Breaker of Armies as possible.

08/25/15

If, during its controller’s declare blockers step, a creature the defending player controls is tapped or is affected by a spell or ability that says it can’t block, then it doesn’t block. If there’s a cost associated with having it block, its controller isn’t forced to pay that cost. If they don’t, the creature doesn’t have to block.
