Performer is an eternal creature job introduced in Unfinity. Performers are those who put on shows for entertainment and fun.

History

When introduced in Unfinity, performers functioned as the stars of Myra the Magnificent's Intergalactic Astrotorium of Fun. Mechanically, they could place Stickers.[1]

Dancer's Chakrams (Final Fantasy Commander) was the first card outside an Un-Set to reference the type. It adds the Performer type to creatures equipped with it. The mechanical connection to Stickers was abandoned.

Performers were also reused in the 2025 Marvel's Spider-Man set, again only as descriptive type.

There is currently no plan to update older cards (i.e. Radiant Performer) with the creature type.[2] It is unclear if the creature type will be adopted on upcoming eternal cards outside of un-sets or Universes Beyond.[3]
