Our previous cards were pretty straightforward, being used in most cases, exactly as they say but, Grinding Station requires a little more thought and planning to be used to its full potential
When ranking these commanders, I did my best to evaluate how good I think they are specifically as commanders, not just as cards in general
You don't get to look at your face-down shields before you put one in your hand, nor do you need to reveal a shield when you put it in your hand

its both a board wipe and a payoff for running board wipes
That said, it will almost definitely be better in Commander, particularly in more aggressive green lists
