Plargg, Dean of Chaos // Augusta, Dean of Order card art
Plargg, Dean of Chaos // Augusta, Dean of Order is a modal MDFC that does real work on both halves — Plargg provides repeatable impulse draw for red-heavy decks, while Augusta turns any two attackers into a full-board pump engine. The combo ceiling is what makes it worth hunting down: The Peregrine Dynamo can copy Augusta's triggered ability to absurd effect, and the card slots cleanly into any Boros or multicolor attacking shell that wants both gas and a closer.

Commander is where Plargg, Dean of Chaos // Augusta, Dean of Order earns its keep — the MDFC flexibility means you pick the half that fits your board state, and both halves are relevant in the late game. Plargg's activated ability feeds resource-hungry red decks that run out of cards by turn five, while Augusta rewards go-wide and vigilance strategies with an anthem trigger that scales with your attackers. In Legacy and Vintage, neither half clears the power threshold to see competitive play; the same holds for Modern and Pioneer, where two-mana do-nothings-until-activated struggle to compete. Oathbreaker is the only other format where this card is worth considering, and only if your planeswalker already rewards an attacking strategy.
