As a result, this is because the Partner keyword returns to the set, allowing you to use two commanders instead of one.
Since its introduction in Commander 2016, Partner has returned as a keyword in several MTG sets, including Doctor Who, Commander Legends, and Assassin's Creed, and is currently included on five cards as part of the TMNT set.
What is a Partner?
Partner is a keyword that allows you to: A legendary creature that can be used in conjunction with other legendary creatures, allowing players to use two commanders. Both cards, not just one, must contain the partner keyword.
In some cases, only certain cards can be partnered together (this will be written on the card), and the cards must have the same ability. In this case, the TMNT gang has the “Choose Character” ability.
Unlike the new keyword Sneak in the TMNT set, Partner is a returning keyword, It's been around in Commander format for 10 years.
