Oracle Text
Flying, deathtouch
When this creature enters, create four 1/1 green Insect creature tokens with flying and deathtouch.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Hornet Queen is a quintessential value-engine finisher for green decks, especially ramp and midrange shells that can reach seven mana reliably. In Commander Legends: Battle for Baldur’s Gate, its impact is immediate: a 2/2 body is less important than the four 1/1 flying, deathtouch Insect tokens, which effectively blank most attacks and make blocking miserable for opponents. That makes it excellent in control-leaning green strategies that want to stabilize the board, then turn the corner with evasive pressure. It also plays nicely with token payoffs and sacrifice outlets—cards that care about creatures dying, entering, or being numerous all get a lot from the Queen’s swarm. Deckbuilding-wise, pair it with mana acceleration and anthem effects; even modest buffs turn the tokens into a lethal aerial defense force. Thematic or not, Hornet Queen feels like a nest erupting into a sudden, poisonous storm.
