plakjekaas. Klothys, God of Destiny was actually one I was thinking of for breaking the mold of the usual Gruul-faire a little bit & yes, she lends herself to MLD & such more than alot of people like, but she is pretty decent to build a punisher deck as well. Meria, Scholar of Antiquity was another... Though, personally I think she is a little too Urzatastic & really not feeling, also she (Meria) isn't all that unique if you were to bring what she is outside of the color pair. The Gruul Ice-troll guy from Kaldheim is pretty neat as well, though he is more generic Timmie-ramp & less bringing Gruul in a new direction. I have seen someone build Faldorn, Dread Wolf Herald to be a pretty kickass polymorph subtheme deck, but again, when you actually lean into that "play from exile" theme, it feels pretty lackluster in Gruul vs. Rakdos.

When Meria, Scholar of Antiquity was spoiled, I actually thought: we have Urza, Lord High Artificer at home now.

Meria, Scholar of Antiquity might be a good addition if you decide to go Gruul.
Other than that, things like Mystic Forge might be worth looking into. It could be an artifact-based lockdown kind of deck.

Tergrid, God of Fright Flip has been mentioned by the rules committee to be on the watchlist.
I don't see Meria, Scholar of Antiquity being banned if Urza, Lord High Artificer doesn't even get banned.

In short, what legendary creature that is primarily being used currently as a Commander do you see being banned within the format next?
Personally, I think Korvold, Fae-Cursed King will be banned soon. Every set seems to add considerably to his power, especially with Wizard's focus on Treasures. He's exactly the kind of "general value" commander that the RC seems to dislike.
Plus, he has the potential to set up increasingly aggravating turns. I once took a two-hour turn with Korvold on the field where I just sacrificed Treasures and spun my wheel, very slowly gaining an advantage but never quite edging out my opponent.
Another one I could see being banned would be Meria, Scholar of Antiquity. I'm sure there's some really good ways to obscenely break her, and she's a lower mana value as is which makes her more efficient. She's kinda like Gruul Urza in a way, tbh.
What do you guys think? I'd love to hear your thoughts.
