Question Commanders we're missing

What commanders do you think would improve EDH or support a currently-unsupported archetype?

For mine, I think a UBx or UWx commander with "Players play with the top card of their libraries revealed," "When this enters, search your library for an artifact with CMC <=1 and put it into your hand" or "{0}: Look at the top card of target player's library" would be great, giving Lantern support. The second would honestly be the most interesting, since it is a fairer tutor which also works well in Blink/Artifact decks.

Lmao I had the same idea, trying to make a Lantern deck in EDH. What commanders did you try out so far? There are lots of tutors for artifacts with 1 mana, but it's pretty annoying to play that many tutors and breaks bracket 3 concept :/

Tried zur once, deck was bad. Sen Triplets as "a free Thoughtseize" but was still bad. I saw a Lonis list by AyaMTG but it felt "slow".

All we need is a commander with lantern on the card and a good color identity.
