Commander Clash: Strixhaven Commanders | S10 E13
Strixhaven has made it on to Magic Online, so it's time to showcase some of the sweet new commanders from the set! Here's what we've got:
- Crim makes some giant Tokens and copies them for value with Adrix and Nev, Twincasters
- Richard isn't satisfied with just Seven Dwarves, instead going for full-on Dwarf Storm with Rionya, Fire Dancer
- Seth will never miss an opportunity to play Panharmonicon, this time going Boros flavored with Hofri Ghostforge
- Tomer is running another budget brew, this time doing $50 Auras with Killian, Ink Duelist

New Season House Bans
In addition to the official Commander ban list, we have a collection of house bans. This list changes with each season. For Season 10 we started with a clean slate and banned cards based on three loose criteria:
- Cards that were played too much last season.
- Cards that regularly caused games to revolve around them.
- Cards that are far out of the budget of the average viewer.
With this in mind, here is our new ban list for Season 10:
- Rhystic Study
- Mystic Remora
- Notion Thief
- Narset, Parter of Veils
- Hullbreacher
- Gaea's Cradle
- Mana Crypt
- Strip Mine
- MLD / Mass Mana Denial like Blood Moon
- Smothering Tithe
- Teferi's Protection
- Dockside Extortionist
- Necropotence
- Survival of the Fittest
So this is a major shakeup to our ban list. A lot of Commander Clash staples like Smothering Tithe, Rhystic Study, and Dockside Extortionist are out, and there no longer will be the threat of Notion Thief + Windfalls that dominated conversations.
However, there are some notable unbans: expensive cards like Wheel of Fortune are now allowed (for now). Plus for the first time in a long time, fast mana like Sol Ring is back on the table!
Our house bans are meant to encourage more entertaining games for you, the viewers, so let us know what you think of the new ban list! We'll be following all the feedback from the early episodes to see how you all are enjoying it.
