Fierce Guardianship & Commander

Asked by Enral 4 years ago

Fierce Guardianship technically says "a commander", not "your commander", so if you somehow controlled an opponents commander and not your own, would it still allow you to cast it for free?

Correct. If you Mind Control someone's commander, you may still cast it without paying its mana cost because it doesn't specify it must be Your commander.

Note that "commander-ness" is a quality of the physical card and not a copiable trait, so having a Clone copying someone else's commander would not satisfy the requirement.
