Moonforged Commander
Anim Pakal, Thousandth Moon is a compact commander that scales through combat pressure rather than raw stats. The card reads like a game plan in miniature. Whenever you attack with one or more non Gnome creatures you put a +1/+1 counter on Anim Pakal and then create X tapped and attacking 1/1 colorless Gnome artifact creature tokens where X equals the number of +1/+1 counters on Anim Pakal. That loop rewards incremental aggression and builds a board that threatens lethal with minimal setup.
This showcase foil sits well in midrange and token focused builds. Use removal and evasion to keep creatures chipping in so counters accumulate quickly. The Lore hints at a leader who bends tide and tide follows, a mechanic friendly to commanders and limited play alike. Light Play foil condition keeps the piece playable and visually striking for casual tables or a focused deck list.
