About Sakashima of a Thousand Faces
Sakashima of a Thousand Faces, Legendary creature — human rogue, designed by Jason A. Engle first released in Nov, 2020 in the set Commander Legends and was printed exactly in 5 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's a key card in 5 combos.
A deck that benefits from Sakashima of a Thousand Faces would be one focused on maximizing the abilities of powerful creatures, especially those with strong enter-the-battlefield effects or unique abilities that can be duplicated for added value. While Sakashima offers versatility and flexibility in copying creatures, there may be better options depending on the specific strategy of the deck, such as Spark Double for a more cost-effective copy effect, or Clever Impersonator for a broader range of targets. Ultimately, Sakashima of a Thousand Faces could see play in decks looking to create synergistic interactions with multiple powerful creatures on the battlefield.

An effect that checks whether you control your commander is satisfied if you control one or both of your two commanders.
11/10/20
Any enters-the-battlefield abilities of the copied creature will trigger when Sakashima enters the battlefield. Any “as [this creature] enters the battlefield” or “[this creature] enters the battlefield with” abilities of the chosen creature will also work.

If you control more than one legendary permanent with the same name and the “legend rule” begins applying again (perhaps because Sakashima of a Thousand Faces leaves the battlefield), you’ll immediately have to comply with the rule and put all but one of those permanents into the graveyard.

Once the game begins, your two commanders are tracked separately. If you cast one, you won’t have to pay an additional the first time you cast the other. A player loses the game after having been dealt 21 damage from any one of them, not from both of them combined.
11/10/20
The “legend rule” is the rule that states that if a player controls two or more legendary permanents with the same name, that player chooses one of them, and the rest are put into their owners’ graveyards. (704.5j at the time of this document’s creation for those of you scoring at home.)
