Anax, Hardened in the Forge serves as a pivotal red mana source and board presence within the Commander Masters format. Released in 2023 as card number 204 in the Commander Masters (CMM) set, this legendary enchantment creature brings distinct strategic value to decks focused on the red color identity. With a mana cost of three and a power level that scales dynamically, the card rewards players for building their board state with other red permanents. The card’s unique ability triggers whenever a nontoken creature you control dies, creating red Satyr creature tokens that cannot block. If the dying creature had a power of four or greater, the effect doubles, generating two tokens instead of one. This mechanic encourages aggressive strategies and synergizes with decks designed to cycle creatures or sacrifice them for immediate board advantage. Designed by Eric Deschamps, the card represents the high-quality production standards associated with Commander Masters. As an uncommon rarity, it offers accessibility to a wide range of players while maintaining the prestige of a special command-focused release. Whether you are looking to enhance your gameplay experience or add a key strategic card to your collection, understanding the mechanics and design context of Anax is essential for any serious collector of Magic: The Gathering.

Anax's power is equal to your devotion to red. (Each {R} in the mana costs of permanents you control counts toward your devotion to red.) Whenever Anax or another nontoken creature you control dies, create a 1/1 red Satyr creature token with "This token can't block." If the creature had power 4 or greater, create two of those tokens instead.
