Legendary Creature — Vau-N'Akat Advisor

Gwyndala wants a deck that piles armor and magic onto one creature and attacks with it. It also suits a deck that copies the best creature on the table.

When Gwyndala enters, create a colorless Equipment artifact token named Neuroflux Heirloom with "Equipped creature gets +1/+1" and equip 2 generic. Attach it to Gwyndala.

Color identityEvery color of mana symbol on a card, in its cost and in its rules text. Your commander's color identity sets the limit for your whole deck: every other card has to fit inside it. A deck led by a green and white commander cannot play a card with any blue in its color identity.Open the full glossaryUPlayers write colors as letters: U for blue. Blue is U because B was already taken by black.VoltronVoltron decks load one creature, usually the commander, with Equipment and Auras until it can win by attacking on its own. In Commander, a player dealt 21 or more combat damage by the same commander over the game loses, so one huge commander can knock a player out.Open the Voltron pageVoltron SupportHelps you stack Auras and Equipment onto a single creature: cheaper attaching, protection, or extra ways to suit it up.

You keep that effect even if the card is removed straight afterwards, which is why these pair so well with flicker cards that make them enter again.

A copy also gets the original's 'when this enters' ability, so each clone can bring a fresh effect too.Open the Clones pageCloneCopies a creature or another permanent already on the battlefield. Copying the best thing on the table is often cheaper than casting something equally strong.
