Quick question for Commander players: when you're building a new deck, do you start with the commander and build around it, or do you start with a theme/strategy and find the commander later?

What new commander have you built lately that surprised you? I keep hearing about decks that looked mid in spoiler season but turned out wild at the table.

Welcome to MTG Card Wednesday!

Today, I will highlight the equipment card Dragonfire Blade. In most Voltron strategies, protection is a really important part of your deck’s ability to function effectively. Hexproof from monocolored provides protection from many popular removal spells while the card also boosts your commander. Additionally, its mana cost is quite low, and its equip cost can be reduced.

With all these benefits, it’s surprising that this card is only €0.30!
