The sideboard must obey all the other deck construction rules, so you can't put duplicate/additional copies of cards in it or cards you otherwise wouldn't be allowed to put in your main deck in the first place. The sideboarding rule for Commander is optional if it's used, your sideboard can be 10 cards. You cannot have neither more or less than 100 cards in total. Can you have more than 100 cards in Commander?Ī Commander deck consists of 100 cards and you can’t have more than one of any card that isn’t a basic land. This means that if you use Niv-Mizzet, Parun, whenever their ability is triggered and deals damage, this is not counted towards the 21 damage limit. Commander abilities will not count towards the damage limit as it only counts combat damage. If a commander deals 21 combat damage to a player, that player loses the game. Triggered abilities that care about creatures dying or going to the exile zone now happen. Can commanders go to the graveyard?Įven if you choose to make your commander go back to the command zone, with the new rules, the commander actually goes to the graveyard or exile zone before going to the command zone. Details Sets & Legality Language Discussion This card was printed in the following sets: This card has restrictions in the following formats: x For more information regarding each format and play style modifications, visit the Banned / Restricted Lists for DCI-Sanctioned Tournaments page on the Magic: The Gathering website. Since you can choose, it can go to exile if the player wants. If your commander would be exiled or put into your hand, graveyard, or library from anywhere, you may choose to put it into the command zone instead. However, Wizards made some planeswalker cards that can be commanders stated in the card ability, but they are the exception. Most planeswalkers cannot be a commander because the rules committee banned them from being commanders. Can planeswalkers be Commanders?Ī planeswalker can be a commander if the card says that they it can. Yes, any creature that enters the battlefield from anywhere suffers from Summoning Sickness unless otherwise stated. Until today, you can't have 3 or more commanders. Because both commanders start the game in the command zone, the remaining library is only 98 cards.

Generally you can only have one commander, but a player can have two if both have the partner ability. How many commanders can you have? Can you have 3 commanders? The chosen card or pair is called the commander or general of the deck. When choosing a commander, you must use either a legendary creature, a planeswalker with the ability to be commander, or a pair of legendary creatures or planeswalkers that both have partner. Just don't be mad when this glitch is being used against you.What are the requirements for a Commander in MTG? Try it out yourself if you're so persistant I'm trolling. I'm not sure what fraction of a card a 1/1 Thopter token represents. Watching an opponent Ruinous Path, Stasis Snare, and Murderous Cut Thopter tokens in an attempt to keep Thopter Spy Network from triggering is not only hilarious, but game winning. The thopters STILL gained haste from the Thopter Engineer even though he was in exile. My favorite thing about Thopter Spy Network is how it puts the opponent in an awkward position. Turn 4 he plays it again, I played a Telling Time. I just played a game against someone using a white/red/blue deck.

Activate Myr Galvanizer by paying and tapping it, untapping each other Myr you control. Steps: Activate Palladium Myr by tapping it, adding. You control at least two additional Myr artifact creatures. My 3rd turn, I play reflector mage to remove that engineer. Palladium Myr and Myr Galvanizer do not have summoning sickness.

On his third turn, he had a Thopter Engineer on the field.

I had a Reflector Mage, and of course that Isolation Zone on the field. Yep, makes I still exactly remember what was on the field Įnemy had a Thopter Spy network, Whirler Rogue, 4 thopters, and a Thopter Engineer exiled with Isolation Zone (got, I keep ♥♥♥♥♥ messing up these names). It temporarily saves on a google drive, which I can't drag the file out from unless I would make my whole drive public (which for obvious reasons, I would not and Xopa, troll comments on a "troll thread". That's not how copy-pasting from a printscreen works.
