Ian Chesterton
Oracle Text
Science Teacher — Each Saga spell you cast has replicate. The replicate cost is equal to its mana cost. (When you cast that Saga, copy it for each time you paid its replicate cost. Copies of Saga spells become tokens.)
Doctor's companion (You can have two commanders if the other is the Doctor.)
Card Details
Mana CostSet
Character Background
Ian Chesterton is a quietly powerful support commander for a white-based value or combo shell, especially if you want your deck to lean hard into Sagas. At just three mana, he comes down early and starts turning every Saga you cast into a potential board-building engine, since replicate lets you pay the full mana cost to copy the spell multiple times. That means effects like removal, token production, counters, and chapter triggers can snowball fast, making him strongest in a midrange-control plan that wants to outlast opponents with layered incremental advantage. His Doctor’s companion text also makes him ideal in a Doctor Who partner-style build, where pairing him with a Doctor commander gives you access to two leaders and broader card access. Deckbuilding wise, prioritize cheap Sagas with immediate chapter one impact, and consider enchantment-matters support plus cost reduction to maximize how often you can afford replicate.
