About Blaze Commando

Blaze Commando, Creature — minotaur soldier, designed by James Ryman first released in May, 2013 in the set Dragon's Maze. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of € 0.31.

This card would benefit a deck focused on casting instant and sorcery spells that deal damage, such as a red-white aggro or burn deck. While Blaze Commando can generate value by creating tokens, there are potentially better options like Young Pyromancer or Monastery Mentor that provide consistent token generation without the need for specific spell types. Whether Blaze Commando sees play would depend on the specific strategy and synergy within the deck, as well as the overall card pool available for deck building.

Rules

04/15/13

Blaze Commando’s ability triggers each time an instant or sorcery spell you control deals damage (or, put another way, the number of times the word “deals” appears in its instructions), no matter how much damage is dealt or how many players or permanents are dealt damage. For example, if you cast Punish the Enemy and it “deals 3 damage to target player or planeswalker and 3 damage to target creature,” Blaze Commando’s ability will trigger once and you’ll get two Soldier tokens.
