Legendary Creature — Human Warrior
Vigilance, trample, ward {1} At the beginning of combat on your turn, if you've cast both a creature spell and a noncreature spell this turn, draw a card and put two +1/+1 counters on Eshki Dragonclaw.
“Spell-diverse growth: pump Eshki by mixing creatures with instants & noncreature spells.”
Eshki Dragonclaw rewards you for playing a diverse mix of spells each turn—creatures and noncreatures—turning your natural deck-building into card advantage. The core gameplan is to cast both a creature and a noncreature spell before your combat step, which draws you a card and pumps Eshki with +1/+1 counters. Over time, this turns your commander into an evasive threat that grows while you refill your hand, giving you mana efficiency and value in one package.
Your deck should balance creatures with instant-speed interaction, cantrips, and other utility spells to hit that two-spell trigger consistently. Instants are your friends here—they let you cast a noncreature spell at the end of turn or even during combat. With vigilance and trample, Eshki pressures opponents and doesn't need evasion tricks; the ward keeps it from targeted removal while it scales into a serious threat. You win through commander damage enhanced by counters, possibly backed by token generators or other creatures that synergize with your spell-heavy turns.

Use efficient creatures like Llanowar Elves and Mutagenic Growth instead of pricey mana dorks; replace high-end cantrips with Ponder, Preordain, and instant-speed Divination effects.
