Guide
Gameplan
Commodore Guff is a planeswalker-matters commander that fl2ods the board with superfriends, then turns that critical mass into card advantage and reach. You ramp into planeswalkers, protect them with tokens and removal, and use Guff's passive to grow loyalty while his -3 refills your hand and burns the table. The deck snowballs ultimates and incidental damage until opponents fall to the cumulative pressure of an army of walkers.
Strengths
- Generates massive card advantage once you have several planeswalkers in play
- Guff's end-step passive accelerates your walkers toward ultimates every turn
- Wizard tokens give dedicated ramp to cast more planeswalkers cheaply
- Jeskai colors offer the deepest planeswalker pool and excellent control/removal
- His -3 doubles as a board-wide finisher and a refuel button
Weaknesses
- Extremely soft to board wipes and creature/planeswalker hate before you stabilize
- Planeswalker-heavy decks are slow and creature-light early, vulnerable to aggro
- High curve and reliance on permanents make Stax and counterspells painful
- Wizard tokens only make mana for planeswalker spells, so the ramp is narrow
- Needs protection pieces or you get punished for tapping out on walkers
Key Cards
- Doubling Season — Walkers enter with double loyalty, letting them ultimate immediately and supercharging Guff's payoffs.
- The Chain Veil — Lets you activate each planeswalker multiple times per turn, exponentially scaling loyalty, draw, and ultimates.
- Teferi, Time Raveler — Stops instant-speed interaction and protects your fragile superfriends shell from counters and removal.
- Oath of Teferi — Adds an extra planeswalker activation each turn and exiles a permanent on entry, amplifying every walker.
- Deploy the Gatewatch — Cheats two planeswalkers into play at once, rapidly building the board state Guff's -3 rewards.
- Carth the Lion — Pumps a planeswalker each turn and digs for more, deepening the engine alongside Guff's passive.
Upgrade Path
Prioritize protection and proliferate effects—Teferi's Protection, Flawless Maneuver, Deepglow Skate, and Inexorable Tide—so your walkers survive and snowball. Add the dedicated combo of The Chain Veil with mana-floating walkers and ramp like Sol Ring, Arcane Signet, and mana rocks to enable explosive turns. Tighten the curve with cheap interaction (Swords to Plowshares, Counterspell, Cyclonic Rift) and board protection (Propaganda, Ghostly Prison) to bridge the slow early game.
