Rakka Mar is a fine enough creature for the 99, but it’s a bit underwhelming as a commander. That said, you need a consistent source of 8 mana to do so, on top of needing mana to cast other spells, since Lorthos and its ability won’t likely win you the game on their own. Lorthos, the Tidemaker can be pretty nasty if you’re able to keep tapping down your opponents’ permanents. Having mana you can only use on your second main phase is also more restricting than other mono-green commanders that can generate mana at instant speed. Mono-green decks are already great at ramping, so by the time you’ve cast Sakiko, Mother of Summer for 6 mana, you probably aren’t in as much need of ramp anymore. This commander isn’t bad, but there are just better options for similar themes. That being said, it and its ability are both pretty expensive. Cabal PatriarchĬabal Patriarch’s ability to use creatures in your graveyard the same way it would one on your battlefield does make it flexible in a useful way. There are better mono-white commanders for most themes that Heliod works for. That being said, it’s almost as expensive as just playing a powerful enchantment. Heliod, God of the Sun’s ability to create tokens that are enchantment creatures can be an asset in an enchantment matters deck. There are much better mono-red options that also cost less to play.
Rorix Bladewing isn’t a bad creature, but it doesn’t offer a whole lot as a commander. You definitely have way better options in mono-white. This is a card from before Wizards was designing commanders specifically, so it makes sense that this is a creature whose legendary status is more to do with its place in other Constructed formats. Pianna, Nomad Captain is a pretty underwhelming commander.
Often, there’s another partner commander that adds the color you want while also providing an additional bonus, making The Prismatic Piper primarily a card for Draft.
The Prismatic Piper is essentially a way to slap an additional color identity onto your partner commander. There are 138 commanders in Commander Masters. The Prismatic Piper | Illustration by Seb McKinnon How Many Commanders Are There in Commander Masters?
