Durnan of the Yawning Portal
Oracle Text
Whenever Durnan attacks, look at the top four cards of your library. You may exile a creature card from among them. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in any order. For as long as that card remains exiled, you may cast it. That spell has undaunted. (It costs {1} less to cast for each opponent.)
Choose a Background (You can have a Background as a second commander.)
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Durnan of the Yawning Portal is built for proactive value, leaning most naturally into a tempo-to-midrange game plan where attacking every turn turns your combat step into card advantage. His ability rewards you for curving out with efficient creatures and then “upgrading” each swing into a fresh threat from the top four cards, with the rest neatly reordered to smooth future draws. The undaunted bonus makes him especially strong in multiplayer, where the exiled creature can often be cast for a reduced cost, so prioritize creatures with strong enter-the-battlefield effects or high impact at midrange mana values. A Background that adds evasion, combat buffs, or extra mana helps him connect reliably and keeps the engine running. Deckbuilding tip: pair him with top-deck manipulation like Scroll Rack or Sensei’s Divining Top to increase the odds of finding exactly the creature you want, making Durnan feel like a seasoned guide leading your deck through the dungeon one profitable delve at a time.
