# The Gitrog Monster (Bloomburrow Commander) The Gitrog Monster remains a cornerstone of Commander deck-building despite multiple printings. Collectors value this mythic for its role in competitive casual play, where it enables land-based strategies and generates significant card advantage. The Bloomburrow Commander version represents the latest printing, making it accessible to players who missed earlier editions. Most collectors distinguish between foil and nonfoil copies based on deck construction preferences rather than investment potential. The card's mythic rarity and proven gameplay relevance keep it in steady demand among players building Gitrog-focused decks. Collectors typically view this printing pragmatically—a functional copy for play rather than a scarce variant, though foil versions appeal to those prioritizing aesthetics.
