What it does

Flying, haste

Lieutenant — As long as you control your commander, this creature gets +2/+2 and has "Whenever this creature attacks, it deals 7 damage to target creature defending player controls."

Rulings

5 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2014-11-07

    If you lose control of your commander, lieutenant abilities of creatures you control will immediately stop applying. If this causes a creature’s toughness to become less than or equal to the amount of damage marked on it, the creature will be destroyed.

  • 2014-11-07

    Lieutenant abilities refer only to whether you control your commander, not any other player’s commander.

  • 2014-11-07

    If a triggered ability granted by a lieutenant ability triggers, and in response to that trigger you lose control of your commander (causing the lieutenant to lose that ability), that triggered ability will still resolve.

  • 2014-11-07

    If you gain control of a creature with a lieutenant ability owned by another player, that ability will check to see if you control your commander and will apply if you do. It won’t check whether its owner controls their commander.

  • 2014-11-07

    Lieutenant abilities apply only if your commander is on the battlefield and under your control.

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

Every version of Tyrant's Familiar

5 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 Tyrant's Familiar — 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.
