A new Azorius Knight named Haytham Kenway will soon drop into the Magic: The Gathering Commander format through the Universes Beyond Assassin’s Creed set, showcasing three powerful abilities.
There was a lack of powerful Azorious Knight commanders within the MTG Commander format until June 18, when Assassin’s Creed spoilers brought Haytham Kenway into the fold. Knight builds within Eternal formats, like Commander, are typically aggressive creature-heavy builds that rely on buffs and removal to overpower opponents. Haytham Kenway checks both those boxes while also protecting itself and other Knights from the Assassin creature type.
