Topi’s Daily Card #933:  Dromoka’s Command

Dromoka’s Command is probably one of the more interesting commands from Dragons of Tarkir to use in EDH.  A few abilities are a little lackluster, just putting a single counter on or fighting something can be good in tandem, but the other two are what can make this card really interesting.  The damage prevention can deal with a red sweeper like Chain Reaction or Earthquake, or even something as lowly as a Lightning Bolt.  The second, forcing someone to sacrifice an enchantment, is perfect for someone is running one of the Theros gods in their 99.  Exiling or sacrificing is the best way of doing it, and this card is probably one of the most efficient ways to do so at instant speed.  Of course, if they have other enchantments they’ll sacrifice those first, so the command does have some limited use. It’s a fine mixture of abilities that mesh well to whatever Green/White needs, and while some abilities are less powerful, I can’t imagine not being satisfied with the results every time.

Hi, can you prevent the 5 damage of kozileks return with dromoka's command (the 5 damage variety)? If so, how do you target that triggered ability? (Asking because an article of craig wescoe seems to suggest that it is possible, the Bant company one fyi). Seems to me that it is not possible. Thanks!

It’s not possible. 

Mr. Wescoe is mistaken.

The triggered ability of Kozilek’s return is a triggered ability of an instant card in the graveyard, not an instant spell on the stack, and thus not a legal target for the first mode of Dromoka’s Command.
