Rambunctious Mutt enters, destroys an artifact or enchantment, and leaves you with a 3/2 body — all on one card at four mana. Outside of Sophia, Dogged Detective, where it doubles as a Clue payoff, it's a clean two-for-one that earns its slot without needing any setup.

Commanders with the highest synergy
Sophia, Dogged Detective
Rambunctious Mutt is a natural fit for Sophia, Dogged Detective — it enters, blows up a problem permanent, and immediately triggers Sophia's Clue-generating engine, turning a removal spell into card advantage without spending an extra card.
Rin and Seri, Inseparable
Rambunctious Mutt is a Dog, which means Rin and Seri, Inseparable counts it toward both the Dog trigger and the creature-type payoffs, while the enters-the-battlefield removal keeps the battlefield clean as the go-wide plan develops.

In Commander, Rambunctious Mutt pulls its weight as repeatable-friendly removal stapled to a creature — three opponents means three times the artifacts and enchantments to shoot, and any blink or bounce synergy turns one ETB into a recurring answer. In Pauper it's a real consideration for green-white shells that need unconditional permanent removal on a body, since the format is thin on that combination at common. Competitive formats like Modern and Legacy have no use for a four-mana 3/2 with a single ETB trigger, and it won't see play there.
