I’m The Captain Now - A Commander Game

[Incredium]

@Morpic_Tide psst... wrong challenge

You gotta give up to 3 nonlegendaries to turn into a commander

[Morpic_Tide]

Whoops, mixed up the game thread... Despite them being completely different Next formats...

Next: Jace, the Mind Sculptor (because Commander doesn't have the blanket Planeswalker allowance)
Nest of Scarabs
Decimator of the Provinces

[void_nothing]

Hapatra, Ageless Poisoner 3BG
Legendary Creature - Human Cleric
When Hapatra enters the battlefield, put three -1/-1 counters on up to one target creature. If you do, create two 1/1 black Insect creature tokens and a 1/1 green Snake creature token with deathtouch.
T: Put a -1/-1 counter on target creature.
T: Remove a -1/-1 counter from target creature.
1/1

Next:
Juggernaut
Raging River
Camel

[lookingupanddown]

Koromi, the Dune Strider 3RW
Legendary Artifact Creature - Construct
Desertwalk
Koromi, the Dune Strider attacks each turn if able.
Whenever Koromi and at least two other creatures attack, the defending player splits any number of creatures into two piles. Then, for each attacking creature you control, choose a pile. That creature can't be blocked this combat except for creatures in the chosen pile. If Koromi is blocked this way, prevent all damage dealt by all creatures in the chosen pile.
5/5

Next:
Gideon's Avenger
Jace's Archivist
Bojuka Bog

[benjameenbear]

Drajacik, Beleren's Mind-Shadow 2ub
Legendary Creature - Illusion Horror

Flying, Menace

Whenever Drajacik, Beleren's Mind-Shadow deals combat damage to an opponent, you and that player each discard your hands then draw cards equal to the greatest number of cards discard this way. You may choose a nonland card discarded this way. You may cast that card without paying its mana cost until end of turn.

Whenever a card an opponent owns is put into a graveyard from anywhere, exile it instead.

Not all of Jace's illusions dissipated when he wished. One infested a different telepath's mind and became something more.

Okay, that's a gimmick I'd like to see more of, and an interesting challenge for making a Commander with. I'll be mixing them relatively directly with a fresh target:

1G: Put a +1/+1 counter on target creature.
At the end of your turn, if UUGGBB was spent on Ekruthen's activated abilities this turn, you may exile it, search your library or graveyard for a card named Muldrotha, the Gravetide, and put it onto the battlefield.
1/1

Next: Continuing with named fetch, consider the following:
