Where it came from
Loyal Subordinate was first introduced in the Battlebond set in 2018 as part of a cycle of uncommon cards designed to support the set's unique two-headed giant multiplayer format. The card was reprinted in the 2023 Commander Masters set, featuring the collector number 172, to provide players with a recurring tool for board control in Commander decks that utilize legendary creatures as commanders.
The card was illustrated by Wisnu Tan, who captured the stoic, armored aesthetic common to the sets' military-themed units. Its design focuses on a 'partner' style mechanic, incentivizing players to protect their commander to maximize the card's removal capability. Within the broader context of Magic: The Gathering, the card is valued by players for its efficiency in black-aligned Commander decks, where it serves as a reliable way to keep opponents' boards in check.
