@Yonkers11 and @CassZero Unfortunately, I believe the entry must be a viable commander. As such, it probably needs to either be a legendary creature, or to use text along the lines of "CARD NAME can be your commander." in certain complex circumstances.
@Yonkers11 Do you know the concept of a tribal commander? I mean, your entry is technically viable, but it doesn’t encourage the use of Octopus cards in a deck. In fact, it doesn’t do anything for Octopus at all. Maybe you should redo it again? Sorry to make you redo it over again, but as it stands it doesn’t make much sense.
I’m happy to pump out another Efreet or two @RandomFandom, was just following the pack when I saw extra entries being requested. I just like making stuff
https://www.mtgcardsmith.com/view/draxul-stoneshaper Gargoyles are fairly heterogeneous, they're mostly just red, white, or artifact creatures with flying, and the closest thing they have to a theme mechanic is some of them can pump their toughness. That being the case, I wanted to explore the idea of a commander who can animate inanimate stone and petrify living tissue. This didn't turn out to be too applicable to the Gargoyles themselves as only a handful start off with defender. Artifact defenders, however, could work as they're mostly structures (even though they're already creatures). This led to the two activated abilities, that can interact if you use the first ability on your own nonartifact creatures, to turn all your Gargoyles into removal. The pump ability seems needed as Gargoyles are fairly weak on their own and the condition of it is just for flavourful fun.

Anyway, since you did ask for another,
TheRacingTurtle has Spiders.
AboveAndAbout has Trolls.
Red_Tower has Hyena. That one’s very underused.
Jadefire has Gargoyle, which is going to be interesting.
cough cough ok finally done... sigh
