Casting X spells is the name of the game with Nev, the Practical Dean. As one of Secrets of Strixhaven's newest deans, Nev is a mono-green legendary creature designed for players who love scaling threats and explosive turns. Nev synergies with +1/+1 counters, particularly Hydras and other creatures that enter the battlefield with them. Cards like Primordial Hydra and Stonecoil Serpent fit perfectly into Nev’s game plan, while support pieces like Unbound Flourishing and Hardened Scales help your threats grow out of control. To learn more about Nev piloting an X spells Commander deck, check out this EDHREC article.  If you’re looking for a commander that blends lifegain, +1/+1 counters, and classic Voltron elements, Leonardo, Cutting Edge has it all. This mono-white legendary creature leans into incremental life gain and creature growth. Cards like Soul Warden, Soul’s Attendant, and Ajani’s Pridemate help build Leonardo and other creatures with similar abilities into powerful board presences. In a Magic: The Gathering Commander deck led by Leonardo, every small gain adds up. Curious how to balance lifegain, counters, and combat into one cohesive strategy? Check out the full deck tech here.  If you love chaotic Goblin energy and sacrifice-based value, Grub, Storied Matriarch delivers in a big way. This Rakdos-leaning Goblin commander thrives on tokens, aristocrats-style gameplay, and turning small creatures into massive advantage. Grub's abilities enable you to fetch Goblin cards from your graveyard and make creature token copies for even more shenanigans. Interested in learning more about how much you can have with Grub?
