Today's budget commander sleeper is one that was already featured in our series on Wilds of Eldraine, but I feel like this is the most underrated card in the set for commander, so it gets a standalone post, this card should see play beyond decks that want tapping effects.
In limited, the crown is excellent by virtue of being a tapper. Having something that removes an attacker from combat every turn at instant speed and isn't easy to remove as an artifact is stellar there. You almost never want to cash it in for card draw because it's doing its tapping job.
In commander, this dynamic flips on its head. Tapping one thing is a nice upside on the card, will keep you alive sometimes, but not something you'd use a slot in most decks for. However, the sacrifice ability scales with the number of players, it takes into account the tapped creatures of every opponent. This is really good. For a total of six mana, payable in installments, on the typical board, you should be able to draw reliably what, three to six cards? Given that the tapping is free on your turn, you can even tap an additional creature before cracking it, netting you an extra card, and if you wait before cracking it, you can pay 1 to tap a creature at end step then crack it on your turn for card draw.
Now, is it the best card draw ever? No, but as far as mass card draw effect, this beats almost everything in red and white, and a good bunch of Black's too. And you incidentally get a tapping effect while you wait on your big card draw spell, which is quite an upside.
If you want a mass card draw effect to refuel your hand outside of blue (and green), at mid-power tables that often have a lot of creatures running around, take another look at this card. It's relatively easy to deploy early and cash in later, or in the late game just cast as a mass card draw spell.
Oh, and it's a 3-drop, which means sun titan, Sevinne's Reclamation and Goblin Engineer are all able to grab it back for more card draw if you want to. It's currently under half a dollar, the set has only been out for a month, and I already got three copies that all found homes in decks that wanted one among my collection

Aside from 'Will, Scion of Peace' not being a cryomancer-type creature or having anything to do with his powers (I'm shocked WotC doesn't listen to their fans /s), I'm happy with Hylda's and Sharae's cards. It'll be easy to slip their non-legendary predecessors into a deck with them. (Sometime soon I'm expecting to see a plane with a Merfolk Kingdom under the ice.)
I wish Numbing Dose was reprinted. We have Mesmerizing Dose but still, hehe. Might as well throw in Reviving Dose and Hylda can be 'of the Icy Crown and Potions'.

so i was doing a quick draft on mtg arena and p2 p1 was Agatha's Soul Cauldron. p2 p2 managed to be Hylda's Crown of Winter since bonus sheets mean the possibility of extra rares in packs, so i was really just looking for Eriette's Tempting Apple to complete the trio in draft and i got it p3 p5. woo!

Episode 4 of the "Wilds of Eldraine" magic story was my favorite so far. I love that the story focused on Kellan and Ruby. I hate that Kellan was treated so poorly, feeling used and betrayed. But that makes the episode so good. it made Kellan seem more human. I'm glad Rowan's storyline wasn't involved this episode. That girl's getting on my nerves and, once again, focus is on her and not Will. It's getting really old. Anyway, I also like that Hylda didn't really want to fight and that Ruby got her to give up. Can't wait for the last episode!
