Squire Rules

General rules and changes

1. In Squire, any plainswalker can be your commander.
2. Your squire takes up one card from your deck. So Commander + Squire + 98 = 100 cards.
• You can still have partner commanders, 2 Commanders + Squire + 97 = 100 cards.
3. In addition to your commander(s), squire and deck, you also have a 10 card sideboard.
• Wish-effects can get cards from your sideboard.
• Companions take up one slot from your sideboard.

Squire

1. Your squire's color identity may only contain 1 color outside of your commander's. If it does it must also share at least 1 color with your Commander's color identity, unless your commander is colorless.
• If your commander is colourless, your squire can be monocoloured, or colorless.
• Your squire can never be fully outside your commanders color identity, meaning if it's not colourless, it has to share a colour with your commander
2. Your squires CMC must be equal or less than the CMC of your commander.
• When playing with partner commanders, your squires CMC is limited by the more expensive one. Not the combined CMC of your commanders.
3. You may cast any squire from the command zone, if you control that Squire's Commander, and only if you control that Squire's Commander.
4. Whenever you cast a Squire from the Command zone, its cost is increased by 1 generic mana for each time it has been cast from the Command zone this game by any player.

Changes to commander damage

1. Your squire does not deal commander damage if your commander is a creature.
2. If your commander is a planeswalker, your squire deals commander damage.
• This damage is separate from your commander though. So if your planeswalker turns into a creature somehow, the damage doesn't add up.
3. Poison damage has been raised to 15. This is because you can have up to two creatures that deal infect damage on the command zone.

Banlist

1. Check the squire banlist
2. Gold-bordered and oversized cards are legal.
• Oversized cards are only allowed as commanders.
• If an oversized card would move to your library, it moves to the command zone instead.
