![]() Loot and mill your way to a full graveyard, and then pass some big creatures to your opponents and watch them slug each other into submission. The Beamtown Bullies probably isn’t the strongest Jund commander, but it’s undoubtedly one of the most fun to play. Xira decks excel at both removal and sacrifice, making it a versatile Jund commander. Xira’s 1/1 Insect tokens make good chump blockers, or good recipients for your egg counters. Its DMU version still draws you cards while also rewarding you for killing creatures, either your own or your opponents. Xira, the Golden Sting is the reincarnation of original Legends creature Xira Arien. Xira makes a cute commander for an insect tribal deck, but is dwarfed by its newest Dominaria United printing. Sure, three mana might be a little excessive to draw a card, but it’s not like we’re playing blue. If you’re looking for a generic “Jund good stuff” deck, Xira Arien’s simple ability and cheap mana cost makes it an easy choice. No one’s really sure what to do with Xira Arien, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t a decent commander. It’ll also probably die to Murder before it can even attack. ![]() On a mere 7/7 flying body, the original Vaevictus isn’t even guaranteed to trample past those 2/2 Drake tokens. The trade off for an 8-mana casting value and a 3-mana upkeep, on top of an ability that wants you to spend as much mana as possible, just doesn’t cut it anymore. Vaevictis Asmadi, the original Jund Elder Dragon from Legends, isn’t nearly as threatening anymore as it once was. It’s just about as underwhelming as Adun Oakenshield, but it scores extra points for having off-color vigilance and… shroud from auras?īartel is a weird card, but not as unplayable as Adun. Bartel Runeaxeīartel Runeaxe is the other Jund Legends legend. This is great for collectors and the odd Vorthos in your group, but it’s not recommended for its power. While Jund decks typically have a lot of graveyard play, this is a 6-mana investment for an ability that’s worth one. This Legends legend is a cheap 1/2 creature with an activated Disentomb effect that costs three mana. Adun OakenshieldĪs one of the first ever Jund cards (nevermind one of the first Jund legends), Adun Oakenshield is incredibly expensive for such a mechanically boring card. ![]() You’ll love playing Jund if you love sacrificing permanents, forcing your opponents to sacrifice permanents, and swinging in for huge damage with demons, dragons, and whatever else. Jund combines the aggression of red and green decks with the oppression of black decks to start damaging your opponents early and often. Jund is all about permanents and punishment.
