Junji, the Midnight Sky is a solid addition to Commander decks in Modern Horizons 3. As a Legendary Creature — Dragon Spirit with Flying and menace, this card pressures the air while enabling graveyard oriented strategies. In practice, Junji blends immediate board presence with late game value through its death trigger, offering both disruption and a potential reanimation payoff for your side. The set personality favors strategic planning and durable value streams, and Junji fits that mood without overstating its power.
When Junji dies, you choose one of two outcomes. Each opponent discards two cards and loses 2 life. Put target non Dragon creature card from a graveyard onto the battlefield under your control. You lose 2 life. This duel options window gives you resilient value even after removal and plays well with decks that want to extend their graveyard play and keep pressure on the battlefield.
