FAQ
Loyal Guardian is a strong commander choice for green decks due to its Lieutenant ability, which boosts all your creatures if the commander is in play. Its Trample ability also makes it a formidable attacker that can deal damage to the opponent's face or blocking creatures.
The Lieutenant ability is a keyword ability that triggers when the card with the ability is your commander. It provides a beneficial effect to your board state, often enhancing your creatures or resources, making it a powerful asset in the Commander format.
Trample allows Loyal Guardian to deal excess damage to the opponent's player or planeswalker after its damage is assigned to blocking creatures. This means if a creature blocks Loyal Guardian, any damage beyond what is needed to destroy the blocker can be dealt to the opponent.
