Quantum Commander - Number Crunching
Hi @flavoracle! So, I did some number crunching. Barring any mistakes, there are approximately 50+ sets of Quantum commanders. But first, some considerations.
Ā We have:
Banned commanders.Ā Braids, Cabal MinionĀ andĀ Emrakul, the Aeons TornĀ are already banned, so while their counterparts arenāt, theyāre still banned.
āSubsetā Commanders. Some encompass each other:
Gisa and GeralfĀ hasĀ Stitcher GeralfĀ andĀ Ghoulcaller GisaĀ subsets
Pia and Kiran NalaarĀ hasĀ Pia NalaarĀ as a subset
Karona, False GodĀ is made ofĀ Phage the UntouchableĀ andĀ Akroma Angel of Wrath
Ghost Council of OrzhovaĀ is similar(?) toĀ Obzedat, Ghost Council, with a subset ofĀ Karlov of the Ghost Council
Planeswalkers. Both Ob Nixilis and Teferi have a version of themselves as legal Planeswalker Commanders
The Maralen-Oona thing
In the interest of keeping everything open, I think unless a commander is already banned

The list Includes all the pairings, plus colors of each, and makes it easy to show triplets.
I also have a few questions!
(1) Q: What happens if my opponentās life total is 0 or they canāt draw a card, and I donāt have a commander in play? FollowUp -Ā
I understand this working in duels, but in multiplayer, how does this play out? For example, if Player A deals lethal damage to Player B, and coincidentally Player C has their commander out, what happens?
(2) How does commander damage work, like Partners (my assumption) where itās separate, or combined?
Thanks for your time @flavoracle!
