About Staunch Throneguard

Staunch Throneguard, Artifact creature — construct, designed by Volkan Baǵa first released in Oct, 2020 in the set Commander Legends and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of € 0.03.

This card, Staunch Throneguard, would benefit a control deck that aims to maintain board presence and card advantage. While becoming the monarch can provide a steady stream of card draw, there may be better options available depending on the specific strategy of the deck, such as Palace Jailer for removal or Sun Titan for recursion. Whether Staunch Throneguard should see play ultimately depends on the deck's overall game plan and how well it fits into the existing synergy and curve of the deck.

Rules

10/11/20

If combat damage dealt to the monarch causes that player to lose the game, the triggered ability that causes the controller of the attacking creature to become the monarch doesn’t resolve. In most cases, the controller of the attacking creature will still become the monarch as it is likely their turn.

10/11/20

If the triggered ability that causes the monarch to draw a card goes on the stack and a different player becomes the monarch before that ability resolves, the first player will still draw the card.

10/11/20

The game starts with no monarch. Once an effect makes one player the monarch, the game will have exactly one monarch from that point forward. As a player becomes the monarch, the current monarch (if any) ceases being the monarch.
