Commander (EDH) forum

hi all -

I am looking at building my first pedh deck, and I would like to use Gray Merchant of Asphodel as it was reprinted at uncommon rarity. my question is if that works? or is it still technically a common and therefore can't be the commander?

thanks in advance!

As long as a card was printed or released online at least once at the desired rarity, then that's all pauper and pauper EDH cares about. Gary is thus a legal option as a PDH Commander now. It is also, of course, still allowed in the 99 otherwise.

Have fun!

I think you are confused as to what Tiny Leaders is.
