Lord Windgrace lands as a three-ability planeswalker who refuels your hand with lands, recurs lands from your graveyard, and closes games with a token-generating ultimate — all stapled to the command zone for repeat access. The cost is a three-color identity that demands a serious mana base, but Soul of Windgrace decks lean into exactly that, making Command Beacon a common include to dodge the commander tax when Windgrace keeps dying.

Commanders with the highest synergy
Soul of Windgrace
Soul of Windgrace runs Lord Windgrace in nearly half of all builds because the two cards share the same engine — discard lands to fuel the yard, then recur them for value — and Lord Windgrace's plus ability feeds Soul's activated ability directly, creating a self-reinforcing loop that accelerates both mana and board presence.

Commander is where Lord Windgrace lives — he was designed for the format and functions best as the head of a Jund lands deck, where the command zone guarantees access to his recursion and draw every game. In Legacy and Vintage, he's technically legal but five mana for a planeswalker with no immediate board impact makes him unplayable in those formats; faster threats and free interaction make him irrelevant before he ever activates. Oathbreaker is the only other format worth mentioning: as a signature-spell-supported planeswalker, Lord Windgrace can run a self-mill or land-recursion spell and function as a viable engine, though the format is niche enough that the ceiling is modest.

Pricing data isn't available at the moment, so check Scryfall or TCGPlayer for the current number. Lord Windgrace was originally a precon commander, which historically keeps prices accessible, but sustained demand from lands-matter builds means buylist pressure can push copies up — worth checking before a spike.
