Kaalia of the Vast is a four-mana Red, White and Black 2/2 with flying. Mythical beings out of nowhere Kaalia of the Vast's ability to bring an angel, demon or dragon onto the battlefield ready to attack makes it an MTG commander to be feared. The latter seems odd, but if you put Purphoros, God of the Forge and Impact Tremors in the deck, then you'll be able to win the game just by tapping Krenko a few times. Or, you can choose to sit still and just make a lot of tokens. You can play Krenko as an incredibly aggressive deck where you just constantly send swarms of goblins at your opponents without worrying about how you're going to replace them, because it's so easy to do. Goblins are an interesting tribe in Commander (and one of the best MTG tribes overall), because the sheer volume of them makes them quite hard to deal with. Krenko, Mob Boss is a four-mana Red 3/3 Goblin that you can tap to effectively double the number of goblins you have in play. The Goblin Horde Krenko works well as an aggressive MTG commander, with the power to overwhelm your opponent with goblins. Each of these MTG commanders is good at different things, so we've made sure you've got lots of cool options to pick from. There are a lot of ways to play Commander, and none of them are wrong, but it does help to know what to expect from the format if you're new. We've also made sure we've got different strategies. We've whittled it down to ten, so if you're a veteran player there's a chance your pick might not be here - but we're confident that these are some of the most absurd legendary creatures around. To help budding Commander players out, we’ve made a list of the best commanders in Magic: The Gathering. Generally speaking, it's good to start out strong when choosing your first deck. Basically, there are a lot of choices when it comes to the best commanders in MTG, so finding the one that works for you can be hard. Then again, there are also the partner commanders, most of whom can be played with another partner commander. Not all of those are going to be legal, with some being printed in the Un-Sets and therefore unplayable in normal formats. It's a big decision too, because choosing the best MTG commander is often the first step in building a Commander deck it dictates your themes, the colours you can use and probably how you want to win too.Īccording to the MTG Gatherer database, there are more than 1,200 legendary creatures in Commander. The sheer volume of cards is hard to comprehend, and while there are tools out there to help you build a new deck, you still need to pick a commander to go with first. If you're only just starting out with it, it's frankly terrifying. Commander is one of the biggest formats in Magic: The Gathering in multiple ways.
