Squee, Dubious Monarch attacks, creates a Goblin token, and then bounces himself back to hand at end of combat — a built-in recursion loop that generates value every single turn without spending a card. Pair him with Breath of Fury and he enables infinite combat steps; slot him into General Kreat, the Boltbringer and every swing becomes a free body plus a hand refill.

General Kreat, the Boltbringer
General Kreat, the Boltbringer wants creatures that keep coming back, and Squee, Dubious Monarch is exactly that — attack, make a token, return to hand, replay next turn for another trigger.
Mishra, Claimed by Gix

Muxus, Goblin Grandee

Purphoros, God of the Forge

Commander is the format built for Squee, Dubious Monarch — the self-bounce loop generates consistent value across long games, the Goblin token matters in tribal builds, and infinite-combat lines with Breath of Fury are a real win condition rather than a novelty. In Legacy and Vintage, the effect is too slow and the body too small to compete; red has better cheap threats and the bounce-to-hand mechanic doesn't offset the tempo cost at those speeds. Modern and Pioneer are the same story — three mana for a 2/1 that attacks and goes home is not a competitive rate when the format punishes anything that doesn't impact the board immediately. Squee, Dubious Monarch is a Commander card through and through.
