I really like the new Prossh lite. I stopped playing Prossh cause hes too good for my playgroup. Korvold, Fae-Cursed King seems like a nicely tuned down more casual option
Would be a different sac commander. Some would consider drawing cards and permanent buff more reliable for longer game, but none could deny Prossh's combo potential.
Emry, Lurker of the Loch 2U
Legendary Creature - Merfolk Wizard
This spell casts 1 less to cast for each artifact you control.
When Emry, Lurker of the Loch enters the battlefield, put the top four cards of your library into your graveyard.
T: Choose target artifact card in your graveyard. You may cast that card this turn.
This looks really strong to me and could make for a really nice mono-U artifact commander alongside Urza, Arcum and Muzzio, while also perfectly useful in the 99 of any artifact deck.

Sorry for my possible english mistakes, I'm not a native speaker.
Emory is a 99 card to me. I want to play artifact decks that allow me to run red (and white would also be nice)
Of course urza, Karn and arcum breaks that thought as they are good without other colors.
I don't know, there is something to be said about the fact that she provides recursion for combo pieces and that she can in a way bypass commander tax.

In a dedicated artifact deck, commander tax would be nonexistent for her.
Some pretty pushed cards in the set, I am loving it! Really big fan of the mythic artifacts in UBG.
Sadly WR seem, unfortunately lackluster for Commander.

I think the Red one will see play in my Prossh deck. It also enables the Ur-Dragon to kill in one shot. I feel the red one is solid for EDH, the Green, Black, and Blue ones are better, and the white one is bad. I got nothing nice to say about the white one.
A big part is that Happily Ever After triggers on the upkeep. It also has a lot more conditions to satisfy. It can be disrupted by clearing out the colors the player has, possibly by nuking the graveyard, or straight up beating their face in.
There's a number of cards I have my eye on in this set already:
Nyxbloom Ancient is a new copy of Mana Reflection - an ability that until now had been unique. Costing one more mana means it won't be a straight upgrade/replacement, also since it's easier to kill, being a creature. Being a creature means it's going to be easier to cheat and tutor though. I'm straight up terrified of what you can do with Sneak Attack for a surprise big turn.
Shadowspear will likely replace Loxodon Warhammer in a lot of my decks. The power boost may be necessary in some, so Lox isn't invalidated, but mostly I want the abilities, and paying half as much to play and equip is a massive upgrade.
Soul-Guide Lantern - I run Scrabbling Claws and Phyrexian Furnace is quite a few decks. They're cheap, they cantrip, and they are easy to recover. Nihil Spellbomb obviously makes it into those decks that can as well. This just seems like a no-brainer. While there are still specific circumstances that I may prefer the others, I feel that the lantern outshines the others in most respects.
Purphoros, Bronze-Blooded isn't quite a replacement for Sneak Attack, but I think that says more about Sneak's activation cost more than Purphoros, and he's still super solid and scary.
Uro, Titan of Nature's Wrath looks insane. At first it's just a +1 cost Growth Spiral, but then adding in everything that triggers of of creatures entering or leaving, or what you can do with a 6/6, or the fact that it's repeatable, and this card gets nuts.
Nadir Kraken looks like a lot of fun, especially as a cheaper kraken, and it seems a decent token maker as well.
Heliod, Sun-Crowned doesn't look like a game changer, but I actually have a deck idea he'd be good with, as well as slotting him into Karlov.
There are a lot of cards I want, but only the Titans intrigue me enough to build new deck, since I enjoy cards with some heavy cost (or none at all, if built right). Soul-Guide Lantern appear to be another OP staple.

I kinda want to build Kroxa that just reanimates the commander over and over and over, never even trying to pay the escape cost.
Lifeline making each opponent lose 3 life on every end step (after emptying their hands) is certainly a clock. If you get infinite colored mana, you can just keep recasting Kroxa from the command zone over and over for the win. And you can also run the reanimation spells that normally don't see much play because they only hit low-cmc creatures.
I hope that it is part of a cycle.

Goes infinite pretty easily even without, I wonder how notorious he'd be.

True, though if I build him, I feel generic value, or reanimator is how I'd build him.
