Companions have caused quite a stir. Let’s see if we can find some good ways to use them in Commander Note: We are not including Lutri, the Spellchaser because it is banned, and we are also not including Yorion, Sky Nomad because you cannot meet the condition to play this card with a 100 card deck. Jegantha, the Wellspring {4}{R/G} Slivers is probably obvious, but I wanted to go a different route. Commander: Sisay, Weatherlight Captain Summary: WUBRG Legends Niv-Mizzet Reborn Cromat Horde of Notions O-Kagachi, Vengeful Kami The First Sliver Cards: Shadowspear Sword of the Animist Umezawa’s Jitte Konda’s Banner Blackblade Reforged Sunforger (Not legendary Ways to ramp up Sisay’s Power Many Commander staples are single-dipped Cyclonic Rift Kodama’s Reach Putrefy Rhystic Study Rampant Growth Smothering Tithe Samut, Voice of Dissent Najeela, the Blade-Blossom Faeburrow Elder Bonus Cards: Note: You can use a changeling Commander, ala Morophon Cat - 209 Elemental - 463 Nightmare - 59 Dinosaur - 114 Beast - 415 Commander: Marisi, Breaker of the Coil Summary: Cat Tribal! Plus, Goad is awesome! Skyhunter Prowler Mirri, Weatherlight Duelist Mirri, Cat Warrior (Forestwalk!)

Your deck, including your commander, must meet its companion requirement. Your companion is not one of your one hundred cards. 2020-04-17, Gatherer Rulings Pharika could be interesting (Enchantment) ReaperKing could be interesting (Artifact) Golos (Artifact) Kethis, the Hidden Hand (All Legendary creatures, double discount) Commander: Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord Summary: What’s better than ensuring your commander has NOTHING but creatures in the graveyard.
