Aisha of Sparks and Smoke turns every instant and sorcery you cast into a free Shock pointed at any target, which adds up fast in a spell-dense deck. The cost is that a 2/3 for three mana with no built-in protection dies to a stiff breeze, so you need to be winning on the stack before opponents answer her.

Aisha of Sparks and Smoke is a Commander card through and through — her payoff compounds over a long game, and the 99-card format gives you enough instants and sorceries to make the drip of damage meaningful. In Oathbreaker, the same logic applies but the faster clock means she needs to come down early or not at all. Legacy and Vintage are technically legal but there's no realistic world where a 3-mana 2/3 with a slow damage trigger competes at those tables. Commander is where she lives, and specifically inside decks that cast five or more spells a turn.
