Tax Collector gives you the choice of either increasing the cost of your opponent's spells on their next turn or blanking a creature until your next turn
You start each run with a bare-bones deck and pick new cards after each fight
Instead, it represents the ship's heroic crew by letting the player remove creatures and artifacts from their deck and pay to put them into their hand
The Commander Essentials Kit provides a structured way to keep track of all the critical information during a Commander game, like: Commander Damage for each opponent, Commander Cast Count, your life total, poison, experience, energy
If you lose Ultima to make room for Pinnacle Starcage, it makes your matchup against Azorius Artifacts (the Experimental Synthesizer deck) much much worse
It presents a threat that must be dealt with if the artifact player wants to advance their gameplan at all, making this a fantastic sideboard card and a generally good stax piece
