What Superior Spider-Man actually does
Read off the card by the same engine the Forge and Analyzer use — this is the mechanical classification, not a summary.
- Static ability · copy_engineMind Swap — You may have Superior Spider-Man enter as a copy of any creature card in a graveyard, except his name is Superior Spider-Man and he's a 4/4 Spider Human Hero in addition to his other types. When you do, exile that card.

What a Superior Spider-Man deck wants
The plan the Forge derives for this commander: the roles it fills and how many of each.
- 18× A permanent whose value is in its enter-the-battlefield trigger — the payload a blink deck reuses
- 21× A creature that HAS the keyword the commander's trigger counts — a card that merely says the word is not one
- 5× Actually remove one problem permanent — preventing its damage is not removing it
- 1× Answer a whole board at once
- 2× Answer a spell or ability before it resolves
- 9× Find the exact card the plan needs
- 7× Refill your hand
- 2× Keep a permanent you control alive through removal
- 11× Get ahead on mana
