Agrus Kos, Eternal Soldier to me is an exemplar of what a good made to be a Commander card should be. He changes up the rules in an interesting way that results in weird but fun card interactions and makes old and/or underpowered cards viable if not outright powerful (staring at you classic proto-equipment). In doing so he encourages creativity and exploration of the massive library of cards throughout Magic's history. Despite already having a significant to-build backlog I think neoKos is not just adding to the list but bumping a good number of other decks back.

I almost wish there was a commander jump-start (3 packs of jump-start, 9 all-purpose manarocks like sol ring, and a commander in the colours/themes of the packs) but it'd probably be too difficult to do since commanders tend to be build-arounds and you can't really "build" when you don't choose what goes in the decks. That said, it could make for an interesting game night buying a bunch of jump-start packs, providing commanders for each colour group and a mana base and playing that way.

So many good and interesting things in Jumpstart 2022. I have a mono blue sea monster deck that I really want Kenessos for but he'd have to be the commander replacing Thassa which I kind of don't want. I have a 2 artifact decks Lita could fit in, a Dwarven Vehicles(which I kind of don't want to add her because its mostly Dwarf tribal) or an Esper Artifact deck(which she would more than like slot into). I have been trying to find a good white-blue commander to build around and I think Isu might be it. I know its Bant but I think a white-blue snow can work well, I've also have had like 5 different Bant decks and don't want another one. I also am building a mono red devil commander deck. Auntie Blyte would be a nice addition but wouldn't be as useful since I don't have much self-harm things in it or have anything that adds +1/+1 counters. I wouldn't plan on building around her since I already have the devil deck mostly built. I do have a Naya deck that has +1/+1 counter shenanigans that might like Auntie Blyte. It has Vigor + Grothama, All-Devouring which could give my attacking creatures 10 counters while making Grothama redonkulous. There are so many other commanders in JS22 that are just fantastic.

What dissapoints me in Kenessos is: His first ability mentions scrying. His second ability IS basically scrying (look at the top, you may put stuff on the bottom), but without the keyword "Scry", so it doesn't interact with the first ability directly. Yes, they obviously did that on purpose, but come on! You had it right there! It could have been "Scry 1. If a [scary snea snakes] is among the scried cards, you may put it onto the battlefield. Otherwise put it on the bottom of your library" or something like that. Whatever wording it needs to be to conform with the rules.
