The Most Powerful Commanders of Streets of New Capenna | Power Tier List | EDH | MTG 

Something to note about jinnie Fey, she changes ANY token into cats or dogs, there's a lot of cheap ways to make food/blood/clue tokens that you can turn into creatures easily

I think you’re underselling Jinnie by putting her in the B tier. She does something that no other commander (or care to my knowledge) does. Not to mention her with Brass’s Bounty or Dockside Extortionist. She definitely doesn’t belong in S Tier, but I’d put her firmly in A without question

My lowest TCGPlayer market price is currently $1.87 for my Modern Masters 2015 printing, which is actually cheaper than the $1.98 pre-sale price for my upcoming Commander: Streets of New Capenna printing. Have a safe weekend, and may you always play your threats on curve.

I think that a little clarification needs to be made on Jolene, the card does stare your opponents. So your opponents swinging into you doesn’t give them a treasure. I blame Eddie

Rigo's ability says "or more", so at most you will draw three cards for attacking each of your opponents. Regardless of how many creatures are attacking.

I don’t care what anyone says. Having Syrix as a commander looks so fun. We’ll find a way to make it work!!

Anhelo casualties tainted pact searches for thassa’s oracle and the copy tainted pact exiles the entire deck. Cast the searched thassa’s oracle and that’s GG.

Jinnie is not just replacing 1/1s into 2/2's it replace clue, food, treasures whatever the hell token u want meaning u can create absurd amounts of 2/2 cats w haste throw in a coat of arms or something and you can do some really powerful stuff imo

Gotta say I think Oskar is quite strong, and its a very obvious and powerful engine. I think he'll be popular, and he does have a few combo lines if you want to go that route. A tier to me :3

I would have put Jetmir in A. Even with all the hoops you have to go through and his obvious weaknesses, having a 4MV craterhoof behemoth in the command zone is just insane

I have a feeling that Lord Xander is a prime example of “How to Lose Your Friends”.

Just built Raffine in a reanimator build as a discard engine with the key card to get out is Adeline. Going to try it out and see if i can turbo through to try and find my reanimator targets and cards.

im just glad someone knows the power of rocco, green lets it ramp up so fast to tutor for any creatures you ever wanted, its just so fun to play.

Surely your joking claiming lord Xander at S. He only targets one player for each effect, he is seven mana in a deck that isnt green, filling your opponents' graveyards is often a terrible idea, and best case even if you loop him your opponents get to keep their best things.

Mr Oreo "Double Stuff" definitely got shafted in this review. He is a very plain commander but insanely powerful. It doesnt take much to have cards duplicate his doubling trigger to double again and of course you have fling and infect at your disposal as well. I guess requiring other cards to make him effective is a downside but not too much. Zangief along with other jund commanders welcome Oreo to the deck

Youre undervaluing Cormela. She can do some absurd things, especially with the upcoming Saw in Half. She's cEDH-viable. And Xander is not nearly as strong as youre representing. First off youre reading him wrong and missing the very important "rounded down" clause. This means even an infinite loop will leave opponents with something. 7CMC to start is far more problematic that you're representing. And any deck that can loop him infinitely would literally just be better off using Evelyn, who would actually win the game by exiling opponents' libraries. Xander is a terrible Commander. Hes going to draw a ton of attention while not providing the power to back that up. Nowhere remotely close to S-tier.

I've been looking into making a Dimir cycling deck. Oskar seems like a perfect fit.

Yah just pulled Lord Xander, the Collector today. Excited to make a commander Deck around it.

Hey Mitch! I always love these videos but I have a suggestion for you incase you’re open to feedback on the format of your videos! Rather than go in order from worst to best, maybe just list the commanders off in a random order in your video and place them on their perspective rankings that way. I was thinking from an engagement perspective, it might be more exciting for the audience to be able to guess where you’re going to put the commander vs knowing every time we move up a tier. Or if you want players to be able to skip through your video to the end just to see the best ones, maybe only do A-D ranking commanders and then at the end list all of the S ones in a particular order! That way you could label the video in the time bar “S - Rank commanders” for people who only come for that. And if it wasn’t too much trouble, the S tier could be the only one you specifically do an order for going from let’s say 3rd to 1st if there’s 3 S ranks in your opinion. I was just thinking about this as I was watching as a way of keeping your engagement and watch time up cause people will be more glued to the screen to see where the commander will land vs knowing it’s going in the C or D tier and not caring much about the first half of the video vs the last half. Just a thought! Either way I enjoy your content and think you and your editor do a great job!

Honestly, I am surprised to not see Jetmir in A tier. Token generation isn't exactly super difficult, and his colors let him ramp easily enough to sustain some high-mana plays. All it really takes is an anointed procession and 5 mana into a secure the wastes to meet Jetmir's condition for +3, vigilance, trample, and double strike. That's a total of 13 mana you can spend over 1, 2, or 3 turns to essentially have a small, terrifying army

Jetmir is gonna be a menace. You know you're a strong card when people are considering you for cedh!

Raffine is underrated

I'm kind of surprised The Beamtown Bullies didn't land at S, that card just seems really nuts. I'm quite pleased that Ziatora was an A though, that seems like a really good commander.

A note on Anhelo; If you have a Narset's Reversal under an Isocron Scepter you can bounce the original even if it has an exile clause to keep it in hand while replacing it with another copy!

Unfortunately I have to go to bed, but I now have a first watch of the day ready to go

Jolene says when a player attacks one of YOUR opponents so if your opponents attack you they don’t get the treasure

Gadia is now the must have angel commander for angel token decks- and angel decks in general in my opinion

I think a fun side effect of Evelyn is your denying so many cards form your opponents jsut by playing your creatures. If you swarm enough, it’ll make getting so many of their cards impossible for them.

with jinnie it's pretty easy to go infinite if you choose to go aristocrats one example is requiem angel and a sac outlet, it's infinite dsie triggers and if you have altar of dementia it's an easy 3 card win also it procs on any token, so you can also exchange treasure, food and clue tokens

Interesting idea to buff Falco what if you use a shield to cast from the top they get it so you are pushed a bit towards using your shields on allies that don't spawn with them

Nailed it, great episode. I specifically am choosing Maestros for my family for hopes of the painter

Doesn’t Jolene only give your opponents treasures if they are attacking YOUR opponents? Meaning they will not generate a treasure by attacking you?

Falco Spara could’ve been the strongest planeswalker commander ever if you could remove any counter

About Falco, you can't lost counters trying to cast something that can't be casted because you may look the top of your deck, which means you'll know what's up there

Raffine, Scheming Seer is basically Varina, Lich Queen but instead of token generation it pumps up creatures with counters and has Flying, Ward 1. If you have a I played it in place of Varina for my commander deck of her and it worked out pretty much the same way only the token generation is way more valuable than Counters, Flying, and Ward 1. I felt it was worth mentioning because you have two videos on Varina, Lich Queen Decks, and realized this when I saw it.

Also really like Ognis, haste matters is a cool angle, and she's less scary than Korvold which is great. I actually like that the treasures come in tapped. Makes her more fair.

Def thought Cormela would be B or even A, great colors and combo lines, makes mid cards good, gotta love it. Damn you Eddie!

Good video, I believe you're mistaken with the persist thing tho. They will still have -1 and+1 counters even if the math negates

I can't wait to put together Lord Xander, The Collector! Can't wait for a video on him and your recommendations on the 99 to go with him.

Id rank Tivit definitely S. Its very easy to get infinite clues and treasues, there's multiple 1 card combos on top of just a great ETB like you said. Infinite clues and treasures lets you draw your deck and win. When testing the deck I comboed off a lot faster than anyone expected, i used control for the first 1-4 turns and would win turn 3-5 every time (assuming no counterspells)

i didnt even realize how good Anhelo could be, i was like yeah sure you can copy stuff like torment and shiz but i never thought about extra turn spells, ty

Wife is looking forward to buffing her Arcades (based on your budget Arcades deck btw) with Rigo. I'm dreading this.

Anhelo and Xander in my evelyn decklist. So much value from the vampires in new capenna

So I’m a new player and have a question… why is it seen as a negative to be a single color? I would think that’s useful and simplifies things, maybe explain a bit?

For Jinnie Fay I think you missed the fact that it turns ANY type of token, not just creature tokens

Jolene is One of my favorite Commanders from this set. Seems like a Fun Voltron Commander. Easy to make Treasure in Gruul rn especially after this set. So easy to pump Jolene. Equip her then Swing for the Fences.

Quick note: opponents don't get treasures from Jolene for attacking you, only your opponents.

I’m excited for a Mr. Orfeo double strike buff jank deck

How could you do that Lagrella? She's powerful as heck.

mr orfeo, grunn the lonely king (kicked), attack with grunn...power is at 40, follow up with Chandra's ignition, and a fling for good measure. just make sure you can haste grunn.

I find it bizarre that you put your contenders for (and winner of) the Golden Pig so low, while also lambasting someone like the Magpie for being so narrow while praising them so highly prior.

Question to Errant: Creatures coming back from the Graveyard with Effects like Marchesa are Spells, right? So do I gat a Token for just 2 Mana?

Really liking Xander and Evelyn.

I really like my Rocco deck. I'm glad he's in the s tier.

Mr. Orfeo, the Boulder. Hydras, Dragons, Demons. whaaaaaaat!

Scute Swarm with Bess, Soul Nourisher 😱😳

Rigo only makes you draw 1 card because one or more creatures attacking and because player or planeswalker it doesn't matter how much you attack or how much you attack with

Evelyn needs to be knocked down tier. Although, yes her first ability is amazing, especially with a panharmonicone effect. You are still limited in the amount of vampires you can throw out. Sure they are heavily supported, but majority of token generators for vampires are in W/B, there is about 5 in mono black R/B. Yes you can go for a flicker deck combo, but once again you're limited in how much you can flicker due to blue having a limited amount of flicker effects. If anything Evelyn should be knocked down to a B tier if not low A tier.

Lagrella in the D tier? when she is possibly one of the best blink commanders in the best colours? in my local group the lagrella player just slays

No views gang!

Will you be creating a budget Tivit?

I think raffine is very low on this list I think it’s easily s tier with draw grave yard fill power up and making a stax build I’ve definitely seen it as cedh thank for vide!

I'm definitely building Ognis. I would run ziatora but her high cmc stops me. Our meta has... too much removal and if you play a commander higher than 4 cmc at our table it will likely be killed so many times you can't cast it again.

Cormela combos with Saw in Half, Demonic Tutor and Dark Ritual

Parnesse is the first grixis Commander that has encouraged me to go past just Izzet for my Storm deck, each of my Storm spells can be given to an opponent and it costs them 4 life to target me and my permanents. 1 grapeshot copied say 40 times means that to point that back at me would cost a total of 160 life, all the while I have Grapeshots waiting to resolve and if I need to I could Flusterstorm the copies they do point at me!! PLUS I GET TENDRILS OF AGONY AS AN ADDITIONAL FINISHER!!

Icu mitch rank lagrella low so when you stomp your pod you got defense for it like "look at what I ranked it bro it's bad"

feels good to be early

Henzie was my personal pick for the precons. Glad he made A tier.

Don’t go Anhelo extra turns unless you have no friends or if you hate your friends or just really like playing solitaire

Hey question for Rocco. Does the commander tax add to your X value? Meaning if I have to pay my first commander tax and only pay for that do I get to search for a X=2?

Bullies+Worldgorger+Kill Spell is hilarious.

Tivit is my favorite one.

Except for anhelo I don’t think any of the other s tier commanders are s tier

Feels like Cormela got criminally underrated here

Can someone please help me make a good lagdella, the magpie deck? What are some good cards for her?

Ok, I agree with most of your placements, but Jetmir is one of the most powerful legendaries in this set, there’s so many ways to set him up, defend him, and get all those creatures. He’s also really good because your not likely to get targeted in multiplayer for a while. With Xander though, you’re gonna get targeted and killed before you can even bring him out. Jetmir is at least A tier.

Dr. Doofensmirtz: Perrie, The pulverizer!!?

I think Rigo is definitely good, but unless you have a bunch of other effects out you’re drawing 1 card/attacked player. 3 extra cards a turn is great, don’t get me wrong, but it’s not 1 card per attacking creature. Just to nitpick for a sec. Also, I feel like people are missing the fact that Bennie Bracks can easily come in for free, no mana spent. A card draw engine for 0 mana is very good, just saying. The downside of creating a token to draw a card is negligible if the deck is built well. I think he’s pretty amazing. Not game-breaking or anything, but very good.

falco spara in ramos.... i like

As much i like the aesthetic of the set, im skipping this pre-release. It just didnt grab me. The D&D commander set seems more exciting to me.

A question that comes to mind for me is: Does Evelyn finally give Edgar Markov competition in terms of the best vampire tribal commander? Answer is probably not, but she definitely seems like a very close second

Also, Rocco just broke Food Chain again lol

Funny how Mitch apologizes to his waifu for putting her in D tier.

falco spara in italian means literally "hawk shoot(with a gun)".

You can tell a lot about the comments section over the years by how thorough his disclaimer needed to be.

Evelyn is broken: Dualcaster mage-Ghostly Flicker- Evelyn get Thassa win fun deck 😅

Imagine someone Beamtown Bullies a Blightsteel Colossus out...

Rocco is 100% the BEST Naya commander hands down! Birthing Pod in the command zone is extremely strong

I built Raffine, I definitely think he is A tier.

Raffine is not a go wide commander, they're much better as an aggressive reanimation commander, imo!

Rocco making it to S surprised me a bit, the rest of S did not. Honestly I'm a bit surprised they didn't try to balance out the families a bit better. The Maestro cards feel much more powerful than the others, even without casualty, and some are overkill with it. Part of me hopes to see Xander banned in Commander, and Cut ayour Losses should absolutely be banned in Standard.

Wait some people still believe Red to be better than White in commander ? Shocking (bad pun intended)

I saw a Deck, that gave everything unlimited shield counters

This is really on point, very good ideas and well informed video!

"Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jo-le-ee-een! Please don't take my treasure, just because you can." Wait, she does what? She GIVES them treasure?

So sad to see Roco at S. Imo, having such an easy tutor, especially in those colours, will make for boring games.

I do not like Toluz largely because there is a lot of exile in commander and it is very likely that you end up exiling a lot of cards and never get them back.

Beamtown bullies on the field entomb leveler and then you just put out sundial of the infinite and bam leveler doesn't exile.

Giada and Bess are definitely A Tier.

im pretty sure oskar is at least b if not a tier commander
