Loyal Subordinate

Creature — Zombie MV 3

Lieutenant — At the beginning of combat on your turn, if you control your commander, each opponent loses 3 life.

Rulings

3 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2018-07-13

    The lieutenant effect happens only once each combat, even if you somehow control multiple commanders (perhaps because you have two commanders with a partner ability from the Battlebond™ set).

  • 2018-07-13

    If you have multiple commanders, you need to control only one for the lieutenant effect to happen.

  • 2018-07-13

    If you don’t control your commander as the lieutenant ability resolves, you won’t get its effect.

Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.

Every version of Loyal Subordinate

4 printings, newest first. Prices are the market figures Scryfall publishes, refreshed nightly — a printing with no figure shows a dash rather than a zero, because Scryfall genuinely publishes none for some of them.

Prices from Scryfall, which tracks the TCGplayer and Cardmarket markets. They move daily and are a guide rather than a quote. Search TCGplayer for Loyal Subordinate — a name search across every version, for the printings TCGplayer publishes no direct link to.

Aggregated from Commander games tracked in TurnZero HQ. Every figure counts decks and games only — no individual deck list, player or playgroup is identified. Win rates are withheld below 5 completed games, where the sample is too small to mean anything.
