There are a total of 23 bears in the game of Magic: The Gathering, and a full quarter of them are in my top ten list. Runeclaw Bear then comes in at number four, with the granddaddy of them all taking the number three slot in the form of Grizzly Bears. Six gets filled in by Alpine Grizzly, then I kick Embereth Shieldbreaker out of the running to give my number five slot to Balduvian Bears. Here I am, preparing for a top ten list on vanilla creatures in Commander according to their popularity on EDHREC, and what do I meander over and see all over said top ten? She's a gift to the Commander community at large, and I hope to see more Bears printed for her soon and forever.Īll that said, she has made my job very difficult this week. We are all very happy to not only finally have a Bear commander, but one that is an appropriately costed two-mana 2/2 that is still able to make up for much of the Bear tribe not doing anything at all.
