About Archon of Coronation

Archon of Coronation, Creature — archon, designed by None first released in Oct, 2020 in the set Commander Legends and was printed exactly in 7 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 17.14.

A deck focused on maintaining control and protecting the player's life total would benefit from including Archon of Coronation, especially in a multiplayer setting where being the monarch provides a significant advantage. While this card offers unique protection, other cards like Solitary Confinement or Avacyn, Angel of Hope may provide more versatile and powerful effects depending on the deck's strategy. Ultimately, the decision to include Archon of Coronation would depend on the specific synergies and goals of the deck in question.

Rules

11/10/20

If combat damage dealt to the monarch causes that player to lose the game, the triggered ability that causes the controller of the attacking creature to become the monarch doesn’t resolve. In most cases, the controller of the attacking creature will still become the monarch as it is likely their turn.

11/10/20

If the triggered ability that causes the monarch to draw a card goes on the stack and a different player becomes the monarch before that ability resolves, the first player will still draw the card.

11/10/20

The game starts with no monarch. Once an effect makes one player the monarch, the game will have exactly one monarch from that point forward. As a player becomes the monarch, the current monarch (if any) ceases being the monarch.

11/10/20

While Archon of Coronation’s last ability applies, damage dealt to you still has all effects other than causing you to lose life. For example, abilities that trigger on that damage being dealt still trigger; if the source has lifelink, its controller still gains life; and so on.
