Support Package Map
Cards that fit this commander
Cards are grouped from existing roles, support-package notes, and attached market context. These are cards to check, not a full decklist.
Combat coverage rules1 cards
Gonti triggers from combat damage dealt to a player. Attacking without combat damage is insufficient, noncombat damage does not qualify, and damage to planeswalkers, battles, or creatures does not qualify.
Foreign spell cost reduction2 cards
Gonti reduces only generic mana on spells the caster does not own, regardless of zone. It does not reduce colored, colorless-symbol, snow, life, or additional nonmana costs, and lands are not spells.
Rogue, Aetherborn, and Outlaw connectors6 cards
Gonti is a native Aetherborn Rogue and is an Outlaw through Rogue. Rogue confidence, Outlaw confidence, and theft confidence stay separate.

Grand Larceny is Gonti's direct precon. Felix Five-Boots is the alternate commander and trigger multiplier, not a separate Gonti-specific combo by default.
Exile-cast and foreign-card value7 cards
Normal timing and normal costs apply. Mandatory and optional additional costs apply normally. A land may be played only with an available land play and legal timing. Adventure, split, modal double-faced, prototype, plot, foretell, mutate, and alternative-cost cards require face-aware handling.

No verified deterministic combo requiring Gonti is represented here. Deadeye Navigator plus Peregrine Drake, Thassa's Oracle plus Demonic Consultation, and Hullbreaker Horror plus Mana Vault are commander-independent packages that need separate disclosure.
