275 Omarthis, Ghostfire Initiate

from Overthinking MTG Hosted by HamHocks42

Omarthis, Ghostfire Initiate is a new legendary spirit naga from Commander Legends that synergizes beautifully with colorless counter creatures like Walking Ballista, Hangarback Walker, and Stonecoil Serpent. It could also be an absolutely amazing modular commander alongside cards like Arcbound Ravager, Arcbound Overseer, and even Arcbound Worker. The other detail that our host, HamHocks42, goes into about on this episode is the return of manifest. It is an awkward keyword that was introduced in Fate Reforged to mixed success. The card Reality Shift is the only instance most players know manifest from these days. It is surprising that Wizards of the Coast have decided to bring it back here, but here it is.

Often, though, he ends up yammering about whatever's on the top of his mind that the card reminds him of and a half hours passes and it turns out all he's done is share his thoughts on recent news related to Commander, Magic: the Gathering Arena, Modern, Pioneer, Standard, or humorous anecdotes from his kitchen table jank days. ----- Omarthis, Ghostfire Initiate {X}{X} Legendary Creature — Spirit Naga Omarthis, Ghostfire Initiate enters the battlefield with X +1/+1 counters on it.
