Jegantha, the Wellspring
$0.27
Legendary Creature — Elemental Elk

Five-color ramp built on Jegantha's colored mana, usually tutoring toward a big combo like Door to Nothingness or an Underworld Breach loop.

Jegantha is a 5/5 for five that taps for {W}{U}{B}{R}{G}, but that mana can't pay generic costs. That suits cards with heavy colored requirements. Door to Nothingness needs exactly {W}{W}{U}{U}{B}{B}{R}{R}{G}{G} to activate, which is two Jegantha taps. As a commander it gives you five colors and a free mana source, and decks around it vary a lot, from big-spell ramp to five-color combo and theme builds.
In the recorded games, the most common plan was ramp plus heavy tutoring to find and protect Door to Nothingness. Faster lists won with Underworld Breach and Brain Freeze, used Rhystic Study for cards, or cast Thousand-Year Storm for big turns. Jegantha itself often mattered less than the rest of the deck, and some games it barely did anything. The weak points were slow starts from too many lands and no acceleration, trouble casting several spells a turn, and hatebears like Ranger-Captain of Eos that shut down the combo.
