Can you use Terminate on a commander in MTG?
Absolutely, you can use Terminate on a commander in MTG. Terminate can target any creature that's not protected by shroud, hexproof, or any other form of protection against spells. Since commanders are creatures too (unless they're in the command zone), they can be targeted and destroyed by Terminate. Just remember, the commander can be sent to the command zone instead of the graveyard due to the rules of commander, so your opponent's commander can come back to haunt you!

Terminating a commander? Totally legit move. Just make sure your opponent doesn't have any sneaky counterspells up their sleeve. They'll likely send the commander back to the command zone, but hey, at least you made them pay that extra mana to cast it again.
Nope, bad idea. Your opponent just puts their commander back into the command zone and it comes back even stronger. Waste of a Terminate if you ask me.
