About Yannik, Scavenging Sentinel

Yannik, Scavenging Sentinel, Legendary creature — hyena beast, designed by Grzegorz Rutkowski first released in Apr, 2020 in the set Commander 2020 and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of € 0.91. It's a key card in 2 combos.

This card would be a great fit for a Selesnya +1/+1 counters deck in Magic: the Gathering, as it provides a unique way to distribute counters based on exiled creature's power. While Yannik, Scavenging Sentinel offers a versatile ability, there are potentially better cards like Reyhan, Last of the Abzan that could synergize well with +1/+1 counter strategies. Yannik could see play in decks looking for additional ways to boost creatures and take advantage of temporary exile effects.

Rules

17/04/20

A creature with a “partner with” ability can’t partner with any creature other than its designated partner. Losing a partner ability during the game doesn’t cause either to cease to be your commander.

17/04/20

If a creature with counters on it leaves the battlefield at the same time as Nikara, Nikara’s ability triggers for that creature.

17/04/20

If a token is exiled this way, it will cease to exist and won’t return to the battlefield. It will still let the ability distribute counters.

17/04/20

If Yannik leaves the battlefield before its triggered ability resolves, you won’t exile any creature you control. Yannik’s reflexive triggered ability won’t trigger.

17/04/20

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 Haldan and Pako are your commanders, your deck may contain cards with blue, red, and/or green in their color identity, but not cards with white or black.

17/04/20

Nikara’s last ability causes you to draw only one card and lose only 1 life, no matter how many counters or kinds of counters that creature had on it.

17/04/20

Note that the target player searches their library (which may be affected by effects such as that of Stranglehold) and that the card they find is revealed, even though these words aren’t included in the ability’s reminder text.

17/04/20

The triggered ability of the “partner with” keyword still triggers in a Commander game. If your other commander has somehow ended up in your library, you can find it. You can also target another player who might have that card in their library.

17/04/20

Use the power of the creature as it last existed on the battlefield to determine how many +1/+1 counters to distribute.

17/04/20

Yannik can be the target of its own reflexive triggered ability.

17/04/20

You may choose zero target creatures for Yannik’s reflexive triggered ability. If you do, no creature receives +1/+1 counters.
