# The Gitrog Monster (Bloomburrow Commander) The Gitrog Monster remains a cornerstone of casual Magic deck-building, particularly in Commander formats where its land-sacrifice engine generates card advantage. Collectors recognize this reprint as a practical addition to the Bloomburrow Commander product line, making the card more accessible than earlier versions. The mythic rarity reflects its power level and appeal to players seeking strong green-black strategies. Most collectors view this printing pragmatically—it's a functional reprint rather than a sought-after variant. Both nonfoil and foil versions circulate readily among players building or upgrading decks. The Bloomburrow release positions it as a mid-tier collectible, valued more for gameplay utility than scarcity or aesthetic uniqueness compared to its original Shadows over Innistrad printing.
