Since Niambi costs two we can probably expect to cast her twice, so what value are we getting for our mana?

I think the games address also questionable, mostly because of the necessities of the platform. Its abilities do not play into any specific archetype.

The problem with Azorius in EDH is that it's just not all that fun to play against. She seems cool, I like the power level on this card. Niambi isn’t splashy or exciting, but she does provide a good bit of utility. You have your threats, you have your answers, you talk to the table and pick your angles. Niambi, Esteemed Speaker: C+.

It lets you hold up counterspells and removal (Azorius strengths) but it also lets you play more value based strategies around card draw - see things like [[Chemister's Insight]], [[Radical Idea]], etc. But that probably won't happen very often and to be honest, I think you'll probably only use this ability once in most games, if that. Brago has been able to do all of this for a while now, obviously, and Brago will probably be in the best versions of Niambi, but Niambi is more interested in making a single replayed creature worth a lot (by reusing/finding powerful spells) than the sheer value race Brago brings to the table.

Look this is great and all but before you go parroting stats from the commandzone video half of their data is based off of questionable edh games in the first place. Niambi, Esteemed Speaker has all the elements of being a solid card advantage general. I love the … TL;DR: Niambi opens up value based strategies in Commander for Azorius that are powerful but draw less hate than previous candidates, making her a great addition to the format. card condition. Since Niambi costs two we can probably expect to cast her twice, so what value are we getting for our mana? Each line of Niambi actually contributes a lot to create a coherent, new identity for Azorius using themes that have been developing in the last couple of years while staying true to the tradition of the color pair. Sometimes you’ll save a creature from a removal spell, salvage a combat that’s gone sour, or just gain a few life in a race. That you can play Niambi off of a [[Teferi, Hero of Dominaria]] +1 activation is not only cute and flavorful, it's also powerful. That's basically the definition of a "good citizen" EDH deck. Magic: The Gathering and its respective properties are copyright Wizards of the Coast. And finally: "1WU, T, Discard a Legendary Card: Draw two cards." I think the games address also questionable, mostly because of the necessities of the platform. Its abilities do not play into any specific archetype. The average Commander game resolves one and a half board wipes (as observed in Command Zone 335: Commander Mythbusters - CZ335 hereafter) and when you expect to push past that number with just your own deck you are not making any friends that night. {1}{W}{U}, {T}, Discard a legendary card: Draw two cards.

The problem with Azorius in EDH is that it's just not all that fun to play against. She seems cool, I like the power level on this card. Niambi isn’t splashy or exciting, but she does provide a good bit of utility. You have your threats, you have your answers, you talk to the table and pick your angles. Niambi, Esteemed Speaker: C+. All they'd have to do is replace the card draw with some W effect (but keep the discard) and she'd be good to go, and would also be very unique as far as mono W goes.

I rarely see people cast their commander that little. The card’s effect, though, is rather strange.
