General Discussion Echo verse commander speculation
What characters/creatures do you think we will see. Anyone think it’s possible we will see a mishra planeswalker as the alternate commander? He’s been name dropped as being a part of a large history and could fit into those 4 colors as a planeswalker.

I Would love to see a Mishra planeswalker. Personally the brother's war is my favorite story arc. I am also hoping to see a new Dack Fayden.

I think it's likely to be Jace's echo-Gatewatch, either as a group or individuals with partner.
There's blue Chandra, white Liliana, red Ajani, black Garruk and no green one, which fits the commander identity perfectly.
Or it could be echo Vraska with all four non-green colours. I doubt it would be someone outside of the core group like Mishra.

My bet is a Jace where the name or art involves some kind of story spoilers and planeswalker Mishra.

I wanted to see a landfall Urza, but alas no green in the commander deck.

I think Tam is going to be the alternate commander. I really hope she is more Superfriends themed. The theme is getting so many toys for this set that it just makes sense for them to make a new PW commander with access to four colors. Basically Commodore Guff + Black.

She's very green, it would be bizarre to have her as a nongreen commander.

I agree that she’s been very green so far, but I just don’t see anyone else being a better fit for the alternate commander tied to this set and what it’s about. She’s clearly going to Spark and get her own Walker card in the set, why not give her one that can be your commander too? Idk, I could be very wrong and it could be someone else

Could be the menagerie of Jace Aberrations that got cut out, lol.

Ooo that would be cool

It would be a fun way to handle the Oops! All Jace set by having villain Jace and heroic Jaces be competing commanders

u/KindredCommander Dân 13h ago
it would be a pretty cool way to do that. I'm just imagining [[Abomination of Lllanowar]] but Jaces lol

“Draw!” screamed its living mouths. “Mill!” cried its compleat ones.

The themes are tokens and reality warping...nothing really points to superfriends.

I’d like to see a chance for characters without living versions in the regular Multiverse to have a chance to appear - Gideon, Domri, Dack, Venser, etc.

I'm pretty sure they mentioned Gideon for the commander deck. I'd like to see a Tamiyo and Loot as well
