Pizza Face wants a deck that loves coin flips, dice rolls and wild surprises. It also suits a deck that fills the table with artifacts that make mana and draw cards.

When Pizza Face enters, create a Food token.
Disappear — At the beginning of your end step, if a permanent left the battlefield under your control this turn, put three +1/+1 counters on up to one other target artifact or creature. If it isn't a creature, it becomes a 0/0 Mutant creature in addition to its other types.
Picked for what they do in Pizza Face's deck. When two cards do the same job, the one with the lower comes first. All of them fit Pizza Face's color identity.Mana ValueThe total amount of mana a card costs, all added up. A card costing two generic and one green has a mana value of three. Wizards renamed this from "converted mana cost" in 2021, so older cards and articles may still use the old name.Open the full glossary

Food is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some creatures, it's never a creature type.
Wizards of the Coast27 Jan 2026
If an effect refers to a Food, it means any Food artifact, not just a Food artifact token. For example, you can sacrifice Pizza Face (a Legendary Artifact Creature — Food Mutant) to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability (an ability with "Sacrifice a Food" in its cost). You can't sacrifice a Food to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Food token to activate its own ability and also to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability.
Wizards of the Coast27 Jan 2026
If the target permanent has station, its base power and toughness will be set to 0/0. Adding charge counters to that permanent won't restore the power and toughness printed in any of its striations.
Wizards of the Coast27 Jan 2026
If the target permanent is a Vehicle, its base power and toughness will be set to 0/0. Crewing that Vehicle will not restore its power and toughness.
Wizards of the Coast27 Jan 2026
If the target permanent is an attached Equipment, it becomes unattached. If an Equipment without reconfigure becomes an artifact creature, it can't be attached to another creature.
Wizards of the Coast27 Jan 2026
Pizza Face's second ability doesn't remove any abilities the target permanent has.
Wizards of the Coast27 Jan 2026
Some disappear abilities, such as those of the above cards, are triggered abilities with intervening if clauses. If a permanent hasn't left the battlefield under your control that turn by the time the disappear ability would trigger, it won't trigger at all.
Wizards of the Coast27 Jan 2026
Some spells and abilities that create Food tokens may require targets. If each target chosen is an illegal target as that spell or ability tries to resolve, it won't resolve. You won't create any Food tokens.
Wizards of the Coast27 Jan 2026
The resulting creature will be able to attack on your turn if it's been under your control continuously since the turn began. That is, it doesn't matter how long it's been a creature, just how long it's been on the battlefield.
Wizards of the Coast27 Jan 2026
The target permanent retains any types, subtypes, or supertypes it has.

Whatever you do, don't eat the cards. (Also, don't make the pizzas pictured on the cards. You don't have the digestive system of a Ninja Turtle.)
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 glossaryBGPlayers write colors as letters: B for black, G for green.ChaosChaos decks fill the game with random effects like coin flips, dice rolls and random swaps, so nobody's plan goes as expected. It is built for fun and big stories more than for winning quickly.Open the Chaos pageText/Type/Color ShifterChanges what a card *is* rather than what it does: its color, its creature types, or the words in its text box. Often used to switch on cards that only interact with one color or type. Mycosynth Lattice, Leyline of the GuildpactOpen the Text/Type/Color Shifter pageType ChangerAdds a type to permanents on top of the types they already have. Making everything an artifact or a land switches on cards that only interact with that type. Liquimetal Torque, Phyrexian MetamorphOpen the Type Changer pageArtifactsAn artifacts deck fills the battlefield with artifacts, cards like Sol Ring that stay in play and keep working turn after turn. Played together, they give you extra mana and extra cards. A handful of keywords turn up on artifacts again and again. Equip means you pay a cost to attach an Equipment such as Swiftfoot Boots to one of your creatures. If that creature dies, the Equipment does not go to your graveyard with it. It stays on the battlefield, and you can pay the cost again to attach it to another creature. Crew means you tap your own creatures with enough total power between them to turn a Vehicle such as Smuggler's Copter into a creature until the end of the turn. A Treasure is a token you can sacrifice (put into your graveyard on purpose) for one mana of any color. A token is a game piece that a card makes, not a card from your deck, and Pitiless Plunderer is one card that makes Treasures. Affinity makes a spell like Frogmite cheaper for each artifact you control. Unearth brings a card like Combat Courier back from your graveyard for one turn, and then it is exiled. Modular creatures like Arcbound Ravager enter with +1/+1 counters and pass them to another artifact creature when they die.Open the Artifacts pageToken MakerCreates one or more tokens. Different cards make very different ones: creatures Grave Titan, Treasures Smothering Tithe, Clues Tireless Tracker or Food Gilded Goose. This is one of our largest tags, so pair it with an archetype or theme when you are hunting a specific kind.Open the Token Maker pageMana SinkGives you somewhere useful to spend spare mana, usually through an ability you can activate again and again. Rogue's Passage, Mind StoneOpen the Mana Sink pageAnimate ArtifactTurns artifacts into creatures so they can attack and block. It is a trade: they gain a body, and they become vulnerable to anything that destroys creatures. Mirage Mirror, Inkmoth NexusOpen the Animate Artifact pageCounter EngineAdds +1/+1 counters over and over rather than once. A counter here is a small permanent marker that raises a creature's power and toughness for good. It is not a counterspell, which is a different thing entirely. Something that adds them every turn makes your whole board bigger and keeps it that way. Hardened Scales, Corpsejack MenaceOpen the Counter Engine pageSacrifice OutletA permanent that lets you sacrifice your own creatures or artifacts whenever you want, usually for free. Every Aristocrats deck needs one, because cards that reward a creature dying only help if you choose when it dies. Ashnod's Altar, Viscera SeerOpen the Sacrifice Outlet pageLifegain EngineGains you life again and again, on a trigger that keeps happening, rather than once. You start at 40 life in Commander, so life is something to spend as well as a cushion, and a card like this sets off every card that rewards you for gaining it. Soul Warden, Trostani, Selesnya's VoiceOpen the Lifegain Engine pageETB ValueDoes something useful the moment it arrives: an enter the battlefield ability, which players shorten to ETB. 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. Solemn Simulacrum, The One RingOpen the ETB Value pageAristocratsAristocrats decks sacrifice their own creatures on purpose and profit every time one dies, often by draining life from each opponent. A sacrifice outlet, a card that lets you sacrifice whenever you like, decides when that happens.Open the Aristocrats pageFood TokensFood tokens are artifacts you can pay 2 mana, tap and sacrifice to gain 3 life, and many Food cards also reward you for sacrificing them.Open the Food Tokens page+1/+1 CountersPuts +1/+1 counters on creatures, permanently raising their power and toughness. Unlike a temporary boost that wears off at end of turn, these markers stay put and stack up over a long game. Hardened Scales, The Great HengeOpen the +1/+1 Counters pageLife GainGains you life, once or over and over. Soul Warden, The Great Henge. In Commander life is something to spend, not just a cushion, and many of these cards also set off others that reward gaining life.Open the Life Gain page
