It's crazy, but this is actually the first ETB disenchant creature in white. Green has had loads of them at this point. Wish it had more of a Reclamation Sage body than Indrik Stomphowler, but it's not bad.
Well, Kor Sanctifiers is a disenchant on legs if you kick it. But this good boy won't turn on you and take out one of your own.
I mean, you can already abuse death triggers with the Mutate mechanic under current rules. If Child is mutated, and dies, and Child goes to command, it still 'died' and thus the Child can nuke the board.
If a commander is in a graveyard or in exile and that card was put into that zone since the last time state-based actions were checked, its owner may put it into the command zone.
If a commander would be put into its owner’s hand or library from anywhere, its owner may put it into the command zone instead. This replacement effect may apply more than once to the same event.
So the hand/library is still a replacement effect - the commander goes to grave/exile and the next time SBAs are checked, you can move it to command - but you only have that one opportunity.
This is probably going to be named Alseid of Life's Gift or something - for one, it fits the crunch as card #1, and other white 'nymphs' were called alseids in prior sets.
You can also stop Theros gods from being creatures with One with the Stars - regardless of devotion, they lose their creature type. It's... something at least?
Do note that unlike other such effects, Sealock says 'in addition to its other types' so the land does what it normally does and additionally can tap for blue.
I'll note that you can make this much simpler just by using Panharmonicon so you don't need 3 different cards just to make the Scepter trigger twice. The cost remains at 2 even with multiple spells.
I was playing the first announced modern, was it well received initially or did everyone thinks it wasn't going to work?
Frontier never was official. A game shop in Japan came up with it and it kinda spread a bit, but it never got any official standing. Pioneer is kinda needed, for there are literally more cards in Modern than not, and it's getting way too expensive.
Pretty sure it's the wand of the wizard in the background, that the dog is chewing up, thus 'destroying' it (representing the ETB trigger).
He's a bad boi. But an awesome derpy fluffy boi.

Now to current news:
The official post about it is thus: https://mtgcommander.net/index.php/2020/06/07/june-7-announcement-on-dies-triggers/

A new Reaper King-esque mana cost? Also, the 20-year-old mechanic could be phasing from that one potential leak.
And all tokens too.
Now we have confirmation that the third walker _is_ new. Maro was being cryptic before.
Escape is an alternate cost and thus you can't use it with Fires of Invention. And Fires doesn't let you cast spells from the graveyard.
