Can you take control of another player's commander in MTG?
Yeah, you can, and it's a legit strategy, especially in commander games where taking someone's commander can be a huge swing. Cards like Control Magic, Act of Treason, or even Mind Control can do the trick. I've done it before, and let me tell you, it feels pretty great to turn the tables with their own commander!

Absolutely, you can take control of someone's commander in MTG! There are several spells and abilities that let you snatch control of any creature, including commanders. Just look for cards that say something like 'Gain control of target creature.' Remember, though, while you can control it, you can't change who owns the commander, and if it would go to any zone other than the battlefield, its owner can choose to put it back in the command zone instead.
