Commander-specific cheap synergy, niche role players, and practical upgrades based on available price and synergy data.
Budget Synergy Finds6 cards
Cheap cards that may overperform because they fit this commander's game plan.
Native Squirrel TypalChatterstorm$0.31
Useful for Squirrel density and copy targets, but less reliable without storm setup.
Squirrel AristocratsRavenous Squirrel$0.49
Best when Hazel is using artifact tokens or aristocrats support, not only typal combat.
Squirrel AristocratsPlumb the Forbidden$0.52
A strong rebuild tool after Hazel creates excess token material.
Native Squirrel TypalChitterspitter$1.26
Clean typal card for Hazel because it supports both sides of the commander.
Squirrel-Copy ValueRootcast Apprenticeship$1.34
Best in Squirrel-copy value or precon-refinement builds.
Any-Token ValueProsperous Innkeeper$1.88
Useful in value builds, less central to native Squirrel density.

Good in any-token Hazel lists with reliable token creation.
