Take the Helm with Commandeer!
Channel your inner strategist with Commandeer, the ultimate instant spell that lets you seize the initiative in your games of Magic: The Gathering. For a mere five mana, you can not only bypass the casting cost by exiling two blue cards from your hand but also gain control of any noncreature spell your opponent casts. This is the kind of tactical maneuver that turns the tide of battle, letting you snatch away crucial spells like Wrath of God or even a game-changing Planeswalker. Imagine the look on your opponent’s face when you turn their own well-laid plans against them!
Strategically, Commandeer shines in decks that emphasize blue's strengths, especially those utilizing cards like Snapcaster Mage or Archaeomancer to recycle spells or draw cards. By incorporating Commandeer, you not only mitigate threats but also create opportunities for your game-winning plays. Prepare for a delightful game of cat and mouse as you outsmart your opponents with this rare gem from the Commander Masters set!
