Can you steal a commander in MTG?
Totally! Stealing someone's commander in MTG is a legit move and can be super satisfying. Spells like "Control Magic" or "Act of Treason" let you snatch an opponent's commander for a turn or indefinitely, depending on the spell. Just remember, if the commander would leave the battlefield, its owner can choose to return it to the command zone instead. This means you won't keep it forever, but it's a great way to mess with their strategy for a bit!

Yes, but why would you? Stealing a commander is a short-lived victory. They'll just put it back in the command zone, and you've wasted a spell.
Absolutely, and it's a blast! I once used "Mind Control" to take my friend's commander for the entire game. It turned the tide and I won. It's all fair in love and MTG!
