I think this goblin warrior is the only commander for which Id advise giving a heads up before the game during your Rule 0 conversation, because a lot of players despise any land-hate strategies
Xyris is a snake, remember, so this could pretty quickly help deal 21 commander damage
My testing found that the other 57 cards are basically perfect, and this slot just didnt matter much in terms of its effect on the game itself
Ivora, Insatiable Heir -- Blood tokens aren't very effective in Commander, and Ivora lacks the Black color that Strefan, Maurer Progenitor offers for a similar strategy
The full Galarian legendary bird trio Moltres, Slowking, Articuno, Zapdos alt arts are all in the top 5 cards of the set, which is unusual for S-series sets that typically concentrate value in one or two cards
You do cut yourself off from using it for mana, but having a hexproof creature is never a bad thing to keep a board presence around
