mtg best commander decks 2022 Starter MTG Commander 2022 Starter Decks:

WOTC did a fantastic job with the flavor here

You can even run a bit of a Stax build in Green with cards like Root Maze and Winter Orb since this untaps your lands for you and leaves theirs frosted

Feather was the beginning of the Boros renaissance in EDH, and Akiri is the next step in that path

But does it have the potential to rocket you ahead at a critical moment

These dont always work, but they often have great targets, whether thats effectively countering a counterspell, pointing removal towards someone elses creature, or best case, making a Time Warp target you instead

I think it falls a little short of being noteworthy as a commander, but it still pairs well with a creature like Guild Artisan or Scion of Halaster
