Show Notes:
Commander is famously a casual format, so it’s easy to handwave some of the more complicated rules when it comes to stuff like the stack and priority in a 4-player pod. But if you’re looking to take your gameplay to the next level, understanding these rules isn’t just helpful, it’s essential. This time, we’re running back a classic episode featuring our friend and L2 judge Danny Simard to help explain some of those intricacies, and most importantly, how you can benefit from them strategically to have more fun and win more games!
