Who are the strongest Jeskai commanders in Magic: The Gathering's Commander format🍒? Let's f💧ind out.

Whether the commanders assist tribal strategies or those that utilize toꦛkeꦏns, Selesnya has a significant amount of viable options when figuring out which commander should lead a deck. So today we're going to talk about the best the green and white pairing has to offer in the Commander format.

20 ♛ Kut𓄧zil, Malamet Exemplar

A Command Zone Silence Is Pretty Good

MTG Kutzil, Malamet Exemplar card and art background

One of the best value creatures released in quite some time, Kutzil, Malamet Exemplar is a fantastic pick for a unique commander for players looking for something a little different. One of only a few legendaryℱ creatures that prevent your opponents from casting spells, Kutzil ensures that your opponents can't interrupt your plans while you set up your board on your turn by preventing them from casting any sort of spell during your turn. They can still activate abilities of their cards to respond in other ways, but so long as that spell needs to be cast, they can't interact with you on your turn.

This effect, combined with his se𓆏cond ability to draw you a card when you deal 𒁏combat damage to a player with a creature with a higher power than its base power, Kutzil makes for a solid creature-based commander that gives you some breathing room during your game.

19 Gluntch, The Be✱stower 🙈

Gluntch The Diplomat

Printed in Commander Legends: Battle for Baldur's Gate, Gluntch, The Bestower is a politically-driven commander that allows you to offer opponents resources, serving as potential bargaining chips and driving negotiations. For the low cost of three mana, this legendary Jellyfish allows you to provide three different benefits to different players at the table. While one player puts two +1/+1 counters on a creature they control, another player draws a card, whilไe the third chosen player creates two Treasure tokens. Reliable card draw and treasure generation are not benefits that should be taken lightly, proving key resources to those who may need them.

What's important to note about Gluntch is that due to the fact that you control🐬 which players gain these benefits and who is left out, you can always provide yourself with the most advantageous option while potentially ൩persuading an in-need opponent with resources that can be used to help take down a common enemy.

18 🌞 Satsuki, The Living Lore

It's Story Time!

Within the past few years, one of the most notable card design developments in Magic was the introduction of Sagas, enchantments that offer different benefits based on how many turns they've been in play. Satsuki, the Living Lore 🔥is the first-ever commander option designed specifically to synergize with this dynamic card type.

We take a look at the best red/white (Boros) deck arch💮etypes that you should be using in MTG.

For the low cost of two mana, Satsuki may be tapped to put a lore counter on each Saga you control. While Sagas may traditionally be a rather slow card ty🤪pe due to their requirement to last several turn rotations to provide their full value, Satsuki allows you to speed up this clock significantly. While this value is already quite strong, when Satsuki dies, you can choose to either return a Saga from the battlefield or your graveyard, allowing you to gain that card's full value all over again.

17 ꦯ 🉐 Leinore, Autumn Sovereign

Lead Your Coven To Victory

Leinore, Autumn Sovereign by Fariba Khamseh

A strong Command that provides consistent value 🍨turn after turn, Leinore, Autumn Sovereign takes a somewhat overlooked ability and lets you use it to great effect. Leinore comes with coven, an ability that requires you to have three or more creatures with different power to get its effects.

Leinore helps guarantee you almost always hit your coven trigger by putting a +1/+1 counter on any creature you con🐠trol, then, if you control three or more creatures with different powers, you draw a card. This way you can keep provಌiding a steady stream of slowly growing creatures while keeping your hand full of cards.

16 Katilda🥂, Dawnheart Prime

Ramp Like Never Before

Though Selesnya players have numerous options when selecting a Human-themed commander, many of these options impact the combat abilities or survivability of Humans, Katilda, Dawnheart Prime allows each Human under your control to function as mana ramp. A 1/1 Human with protection from Werewolves for the low cost of two mana, Ka꧋tilda allows any Human under your control to be tapped in order to generate one green or white mana.

When paired with a sizable army of Humans, this ability can provide subs💎tantial sums of mana, even early into a game. Though mana ramp is impressive, Katilda even provides an outlet for this mana. For the cost of six mana, Katilda can be tapped to put a +1/+1 counter on each Human its owner controls, allowing even the least substantial of tokens to pose more of a threat.

15 Trelasarra, Moon Dancer 𒈔

The Life Gain Champ

Printed in 𝔉Adventures in the Forgotten Realms, Trelasarra, Moon Dancer is an efficient commander that can provide additional value for you whenever you gain life. A 2/2 Elf Cleric for two mana, whenever you gain life, you also get to scry one card and then put a +1/+1 counter on Trelasarra.

When paired with repeatable effects that can repeatedly cause you to gain life each turn, this creature can become quite 🧔an imposing offensive thꦗreat whilst helping to smooth out your draws, ensuring you have just what you need on your next turn.

14 🧸 Mirri, Weatherlight Duelist

1v1 Her, I Dare You

A frequent proble꧋m found within "Voltron" strategies in Commander is that due to the nature of Voltron decks focusing on a singular creature,♐ a deck of this archetype can often be overwhelmed by large quantities of attacking creatures. Mirri, Weatherlight Duelist is the Selesnya answer to this conundrum.

Six new Secret Lairs have arrived as part of Magic: The Gat🦩hering's 2023 Secretversery so we laid them all out bas♌ed on their value.

Upon attacking, Mirri only allows opponents to block with a solitary creature, meaning that a buffed-up and equipped Mirri will most often come out on top. Mirri also helps cover you in the aftermath of an attack, allowing opponents to only attack with a single creature as long a𒊎s Mirri is tapped, mitigating the damage the Mirri player would li꧂kely sustain in a potential counterattack.

13 Araꦯhbo, Roar Of The World 🌌

The King Of Cats

Selesnya has many options at its disposal when it comes to themed commanders. If you happen to be interested in a deck of the feline vaﷺriety, Arahbo, Roar of the World may be the commander you've been looking for. Possessing the incredibly powerful eminence ability that can be triggered with Arahbo still within the Command Zone, Arahbo can provide any of your Cats with +3/+3 each turn, allowing for a lot of extra early damage to be dealt by any smaller Cats you might have on board.

Furthermore, once Arahbo is in play, at the cost of th🍎ree mana, Arahbo can provide a Cat with trample, doubling that Cat's power as well. Paired with the +3/+3 Arahbo is already supplying, the extra damage Arahbo can supply can get out of hand quite quickly, allowing opponents to be taken out of the game seemingly out of nowhere.

12 🅰 Rhys, The Redeemed

Show Them The Power Of Tokens

There is an inher⛎ent strength that comes with a commander possessing a mana value of one. Through being castable within the first turn of each game, one-mana commanders like Rhys, the Redeemed are extremely reliable and can o🎀ften result in games feeling like an uphill battle for one's opponents.

A token-based commander, Rhys ensures that no matter the current board state, you will always be able to produce tokens. At the cost of three mana, Rhys can create a 1/1 Elf token. However, Rhys' more potent ability comes in the form of his capability of creating a copy of each token you possess at the cost of six mana. This means that whether you'ꦉre trying to establish a board state early within a game, or overwhelm your opponents by doubling the number of tokens you control, Rhys is capable of remaining relevant for a ♈game's duration.

11 ꦯ 𝓰 Sovereign Okinec Ahau

Watch It Spiral Out Of Control

MTG Sovereign Okinec Ahau card and art background

It can take a turn or two for Sovereign Okinec Ahau to build up, but once it does there's very little your opponents can do to stop you from taking over the battlefield. Any time Okinec Ahau attacks, you get to put +1/+1 counters on each creature that has a higher power than its base power, with the number of coun🐬ters on each creature being equal to the difference. For example, if you have a 1/1 creature that's getting +2/+2 for whatever reason, you get to add two +1/+1 counters to that creature, making it a 5/5.

On your next turn, that 1/1 creature now𝕴 gets four +1/+1 counters, and so on for every attack after the first. You'll want to make su൲re to stock up on plenty of dice, especially if you have a lot of Anthem effects and plenty of creatures and tokens out.s
