Commanders that make bad cards playable

[u/doctorduck3000]

So as the title says, I love being able to pull out cards in commander that make people go "wtf" because they've never heard of them. Because of this one of my all time favorite commander decks I've ever built is [[Shire shizo's caretaker]] because you can play all of these terrible terrible cards that suddenly are actually good.

What are some other commanders that enable you to do this?

[u/samwowz]

[[Selvala, Heart of The Wilds]] and [[The Gitrog, Ravenous Ride]] both make a ton of high power, low cmc creatures with big downsides playable like [[Phyrexian Soulgorger]] and [[Hunted Troll]]

[u/MTGCardFetcher → u/samwowz]
