Show Notes:
It’s good to be king, but is it good to be the kingmaker? So often in Commander, a player on the brink of death has the power to choose which remaining opponent will get the crown or who will take the loss. But what’s the right thing to do in that situation? Do you spite the player who wronged you?? Flip a coin? Or simply go quietly into the knight and let the game take its course? Today we ask the question: Does Kingmaking Ruin Games?
