Legendary Creature — Squirrel
Whenever you cast a spell with a squirrel in its art, you get {A} (an acorn counter). Whenever a Squirrel you control enters or dies, you get {A}. {2}{B}, Pay X {A}: Target creature gets -X/-X until end of turn. {G}, Pay X {A}: Target creature gets +X/+X until end of turn.
“Squirrel army fueled by acorn counters—pump your team or shrink theirs.”
Acornelia is a unique commander that rewards you for playing squirrels and squirrel-themed cards while generating acorn counters as a resource. Your gameplan revolves around casting squirrel creatures and spells with squirrels in their artwork to accumulate acorns, then converting those counters into creature pump or removal. The deck leans into a midrange shell where you're building a board of squirrels while generating value, then using your acorn stockpile to either pump your creatures for combat damage or shrink opponents' threats.
The beauty of Acornelia is flexibility—you're not locked into a single strategy. Early game, you focus on casting squirrel creatures and acorn-generating spells to build your counter pool. Mid-game, you can pivot between defense (using acorns to shrink attackers) and offense (pumping your squirrels for lethal). The activated abilities mean you get utility outside combat, letting you answer threats dynamically. Since squirrel support is somewhat limited in Magic, you'll supplement with general green creature ramp and black removal to round out the 99, making this a deck that rewards clever deck construction.

Skip expensive squirrel printings like Chatterfang; use budget creatures like Acorn Catapult and Nut Collector, and fill slots with cheap green ramp (Llanowar Elves, Sakura-Tribe Elder) and black removal (Cast Down, Snuff Out).
