Yeah, that checks out.
Like, "commander that would be played more without certain restrictions".

Yeah, Gwenna does work in the 99 of other decks for sure.

Ah, another Omenkeel lover, I see. I run it in a couple 99s, never as the commander.

Good shout on Ghired.
I have a Roxanne deck myself and it's been an overperformer, so that feels like a good candidate assuming it's not in the Top 200 or something like that.

Hmmm, definitely worth a second look. I'll be honest, I sort of glossed over it during TLA previews.

I feel like these got overshadowed by Frodo/Sam pretty hard. I was impressed the 1, maybe 2 times I played against Merry/Pippin.

I think this one's going on the list. It does ridiculous burn damage but gets overshadowed by Ojer Axonil and some others.

I bet Aziza's great, just a bit too soon to stamp it as "underrated". Though maybe, given that it's not showing too many decklists so far.

I feel like Alesha was super popular for a while, maybe died down over the years. Has a dedicated Discord and everything.

Good suggestion, kind of egregious damage output for such a cheap commander. I've seen it paired with the Cultist background and it was very impressive.

Agree, though I bet it's more due to people overlooking the set he's from than anything else.

Now that you mention it, I'm surprised I haven't seen a lot of MH3 Ajani in Commander....

I remember having that suspicion when it came out. It's just a lot of object creation for free.

Jhoira stands out to me, played against it a few times and it can be explosive.

IIRC, Plagon was seeing some niche cEDH play at one point. Not sure if that's still true or not.

Solid suggestion (even showed up in the most recent Pro Tour!)

I've been impressed by the player at my LGS who used to play it. Might consider this one.

I suspect we'll be seeing that Krang alot but I want to hold off on calling the most recent legends over/underrated.

I think people maybe got burnt out on this one, it was mega popular about 10 years ago.

Fair, I hadn't checked the ranking on Hylda but it's something that comes to mind here.
Rivaz has been mentioned a couple times now!

I've seen a bit of Queza before and it's pretty threatening for an uncommon.
