Rationale

Natural Order was added to the Game Changers list for Commander due to its efficiency in providing both an aggressive mana acceleration mechanism and a form of highly capable tutor. The card's combination of abilities allows players to rapidly deploy high-cost creatures and search for specific cards simultaneously. This function places it alongside other tutors, such as Green Sun's Zenith, Chord of Calling, and Finale of Devestation, as a resource that greatly increases a player's potential for early, powerful game states.
