Infested Thrinax: Flash to Frenzy arrives as a tactical option for commander decks that value tempo and token swarms. With Flash, you can surprise on opponents' turns and set up a scalable payoff: when a nontoken creature you control dies, create a number of 1/1 green Saproling tokens equal to that creature's power, until end of turn.
In practical terms, Infested Thrinax shines in decks that leverage creature death for value, particularly token and aristocrat builds. Its Flash speed lets you threaten a big tempo swing, while the Saproling swarm can accumulate quickly if your board stays intact. The flavor text nods to a mass feeding frenzy, reminding you that infestation here means sustained pressure rather than one big burst.
