Companions in Commander
With Commander 2020 out of the way and a brief look at some other notable cards printed in Ikoria, it’s about time we discussed what Companions will be looking like and how they may affect the format. Time is more often spent on Commanders, but now there’s a new aspect that people have to keep in mind. Should you be running Companions and is there enough of an upside to skew your card choices...

Commander's Brew Episode 244 - Haldan & Pako
This year's Commander precons are exceptionally spicy with a ton of great mechanics, most exciting of all, new partners! Now they may not have been exactly the style of partners we wanted, but a partner is a partner! If you like big Temur spells, and are THE new Commanders for you.

Commander's Brew Episode 242 - Gruul Lands
How do you like your steak done? If you like medium beef, this is the decklist for you! It's a Gruul deck that wants to ramp the hard way led by Mina and Denn as the Commander. We're all about playing two or more lands per turn. To make sure we never run out of gas, we're also planning on drawing a few cards per turn when creatures come into play to keep the engine running. And if that weren't...

It’s been an interesting set release for Commander. The Commander decks are directly tied to a new set release and are clearly built with new mechanics in mind. Let’s focus on how...
