Andúril, Narsil Reforged turns every equipped creature's combat into a token factory, stacking +1/+1 counters and generating Swords tokens that compound pressure across multiple attackers. The three-mana equip cost is real, but the payoff — especially once you hit the threshold for the legendary land ability — justifies it in any deck that swings wide.

Aragorn, Hornburg Hero

Sokka and Suki
Sokka and Suki reward you for going wide with attackers, and Andúril, Narsil Reforged fuels exactly that game plan by producing Swords tokens each combat and growing your team with counters.

Lara Croft, Tomb Raider

Felisa, Fang of Silverquill
Felisa, Fang of Silverquill turns creatures with counters dying into token generation, and Andúril, Narsil Reforged spreads +1/+1 counters liberally enough that Felisa's death-trigger economy runs on its own fuel.

Commander is where Andúril, Narsil Reforged lives — the token generation and counter accumulation compound over a long game in ways that only matter when you have multiple opponents and many combat steps to exploit. Legacy and Vintage are legal but uninterested; five mana to cast and three to equip is far too slow for formats where the game ends on turn two. Oathbreaker can support it if the planeswalker and signature spell align with a go-wide attack plan, but the 60-card, smaller-life-total context blunts the card's ceiling noticeably compared to Commander's 100-card, 40-life environment.
