About Gilded Drake

Gilded Drake, Creature — drake, designed by Bob Eggleton first released in Oct, 1998 in the set Urza's Saga. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 1524.70.

Gilded Drake is particularly effective in control or tempo decks that aim to disrupt opponents while maintaining board presence, as its ability to exchange control can turn the tide of a game by stealing key creatures. It synergizes well with decks that have a lot of creature removal or ways to protect it after the exchange, such as blue control decks with counterspells. While there are other powerful cards that can achieve similar effects, like Thief of Sanity or Sower of Temptation, Gilded Drake's low mana cost and ability to target any creature make it unique and valuable in specific strategies. Overall, it should see play in decks that can leverage its strengths, particularly in formats where creature control is crucial.
