Introduction

Faeries, Merfolk, Elves, Goblins, Kithkins, Elementals, Giants, Changelings, and Treefolk are some of the creature types you may find in Lorwyn Eclipsedlink outside website. As you must have realized, there are no Humans in this plane, and that's part of what makes Lorwyn such a fantastical plane.

This set brought some very fun cards to Commander, particularly for decks centered around one particular creature type.

Below, we'll show you 24 Kindred Lorwyn spells for Commander so that you can upgrade your decks. If you'd also like to know which creature type you would be in this plane, check out this this quiz!link outside website

Let's start with the creatures nearly all MTG players try out when they first start playing: Goblins!

24 Kindred Lorwyn Eclipsed Spells for Commander!

Goblins

Grub's Command

Loading icon

This is a powerful kindred spell. You can use it to create copies of a target Goblin, or give haste and +1/+1 to your creatures until the end of the turn. You may also use it to remove an artifact or creature, or make a target player mill five cards then put each Goblin milled this way in their hand.

Taster of Wares

Loading icon

When Taster of Wares comes into play, you may pick an opponent and force them to reveal cards from their hand equal to the number of Goblins you control. You may then pick one of these revealed cards, exile it, and, if it is an instant or a spell, cast it while you control this creature.

Imagine how destructive this card would be in a Goblin list!

Boggart Cursecrafter and Boggart Mischief

Loading icon

Cards that drain the opponent's life when your creatures die are nothing new in Commander (if you'd like to see more of them, check out this articlelink outside website), but now we have two quite in-theme options for Goblins.

Honorable Mention: Hexing Squelcher

Loading icon

Hexing Squelcher fits any red Magic Symbol r list, but we added it as an honorable mention because it protects your Goblins from Counterspell in Monored lists. Nonetheless, this young Sorcerer is fragile in casual Commander pods because these tables are full of global removals.

Elves

Trystan's Command

Loading icon

This is another Kindred spell with multiple effects, and this time it interacts with Elves!

With Trystan's Command, you may buff your creatures by +3/+3 until the end of the turn, destroy a target creature or enchantment, create a copy of an Elf you control, or return 2 permanents in your graveyard to your hand.

Champions of the Perfect

Loading icon

With Champions of the Perfect, your deck will have another Beast Whisperer, but as a 6/6 creature.

Gloom Ripper

Loading icon

When Gloom Ripper comes into play, you may pick one of your creatures, give it +X/+X, then pick an enemy creature and give it -0/-X, where X is the number of Elves in your graveyard and board combined.

It's a buff and potentially a removal, all in the same card. You can also reanimate it to trigger it more times.

High Perfect Morcant

Loading icon

High Perfect Morcant became a very popular commander for Elf decks, particularly because it is incredibly easy to set up combos while she is in play.

If you'd like to see more about this commander, check out this articlelink outside website!

For this ranking, however, what matters is that Morcant puts -1/-1 counters on enemy creatures and Proliferates them with the help of your Elves.

Elementals

Flamebraider

Loading icon

Elemental fans may rejoice! Here's a mana dork for your decks!

Flamebraider costs two mana and creates two mana in any color combination, specifically for casting Elementals or activating their abilities.

Sunderflock

Loading icon

At a first glance, Sunderflock might look too expensive for what it does. However, it costs less generic mana according to your most expensive Elemental in play.

When you cast it, it returns all non-Elementals to their owner's hands.

Twinflame Travelers

Loading icon

With Twinflame Travelers, your Elemental deck won't need another Roaming Throne!

This creature is quite useful to all Elementals in play, as it makes their abilities trigger an extra time.

Kithkins

Kinbinding

Loading icon

Kinbinding works really well in any deck, but in Kithkin lists it gives you one extra Kithkin token in all combats. It also includes a +X/+X buff.

Brigid, Clachan's Heart

Loading icon

The beloved Brigid, Clachan's Heart was made to lead your Kithkin in Commander matches. She creates 1/1 Kithkin tokens or a lot of mana so that you can cast them yourself. Furthermore, she is a very friendly commander, as well as a great choice if you have just begun playing Commander.

Thoughtweft Lieutenant

Loading icon

If you build a deck for Brigid, you'll need Thoughtweft Lieutenant. This Soldier's effect triggers when he or another Kithkin comes into play under your control, which includes tokens. It is perfect for Kithkin lists!

Merfolk

Champions of the Shoal

Loading icon

When Champions of the Shoal enters play or is tapped, you may tap a target creature and put a stun counter on it. Because this is a 4/6 creature, you can easily tap it to attack with it, for instance.

Sygg's Command

Loading icon

Just like other Kindred spells, Sygg's Command lets you use two out of four varied effects. They are: creating a copy of a target Merfolk, giving lifelink to your creatures until the end of the turn, drawing a card, and putting a stun counter on a target creature.

Deepchannel Duelist

Loading icon

For just two mana Magic Symbol wMagic Symbol u, Deepchannel Duelist lets you untap all your Merfolk at the beginning of your end step. It is also a lord.

Deepway Navigator

Loading icon

Finally, we have Deepway Navigator, which you can cast with Flash. When it enters play, you'll untap all the other Merfolk under your control. As long as you have attacked that turn with three or more Merfolk, all Merfolk will get +1/+0.

Changelings

We can use Changeling Shapeshifters in any Kindred list, regardless of the creature type we built our deck around. All we need to do is stick to our commander's color identity.

Flock Impostor

Loading icon

When Flock Impostor enters play, it returns another target creature you control to your hand. It is also a Shapeshifter with flying that you can play with Flash, so it is a three-mana protection that stays in play after it does what it needs to do.

Mutable Explorer

Loading icon

Mutavault often sees play in Kindred decks, and, with Mutable Explorer you can create another copy of it to put more creatures of a certain type on your board.

Chomping Changeling

Loading icon

Creatures that come in and destroy artifacts or enchantments are always welcome. Chomping Changeling is essentially another Reclamation Sage in your deck.

Omni-Changeling

Loading icon

This creature comes into play and becomes a copy of another with Convoke, so it's nothing to scoff at.

Don't let Omni-Changeling's weird artwork creep you out. This little fella is a very cool Shapeshifter that can see play in many decks!

Personify

Loading icon

Finally, we have Personify, an instant-speed blink that returns a creature to the board immediately. Furthermore, it creates a 1/1 Shapeshifter token for you.

It's quite a gift for anyone who enjoys Lorwyn Shapeshifters, don't you think?

Final Words

Lorwyn Eclipsed is the perfect set for those who enjoy Kindred lists. It brought us many fun options, and even the uncommon cards in this set stand out.
