This card, Esior, Wardwing Familiar, would be a valuable addition to a Commander deck that focuses on protecting and leveraging multiple commanders. It particularly shines in decks where the commanders are crucial to the strategy, as it significantly increases the cost of spells targeting them. While there may be other cards that offer similar protection or utility, Esior's Partner ability allows for unique deck-building options and synergies, making it a strong contender for inclusion in decks looking to protect and empower their commanders.

Rules

11/10/20

If something refers to your commander while you have two commanders, it refers to one of them of your choice. If you are instructed to perform an action on your commander (e.g. put it from the command zone into your hand due to Command Beacon), you choose one of your commanders at the time the effect happens.

11/10/20

If your Commander deck has two commanders, you can only include cards whose own color identities are also found in your commanders’ combined color identities. If Falthis and Kediss are your commanders, your deck may contain cards with black and/or red in their color identity, but not cards with green, white, or blue.

11/10/20

To determine the total cost of an opponent’s spell that targets a commander you control, start with the mana cost or alternative cost that player is paying, add any cost increases (such as that of Esior’s middle ability), then apply any cost reductions. The converted mana cost of the spell is determined only by its mana cost, no matter what the total cost to cast the spell was.

11/10/20

To have two commanders, both must have the partner ability as the game begins. Losing the ability during the game doesn’t cause either to cease to be your commander.

11/10/20

You can choose two commanders with partner that are the same color or colors. In Commander Draft, you can even choose two of the same commander with partner if you drafted them. If you do this, make sure you keep the number of times you’ve cast each from the command zone clear for “commander tax” purposes.
