When I spoke with the principal game designer Annie Sardelis at MagicCon Amsterdam, she stated that "anytime we [WotC] made up a creature, we would just kind of look through the book for, like, what is a characteristic about that creature we can evoke."

Players at MagicCon: Las Vegas will receive both cards while supplies last when they participate in any scheduled side event that uses Magic: The GatheringFINAL FANTASY products and the Two-Headed Giant or Team Limited formats
Theres something so satisfying about suiting up and attacking with a utility legend and, frankly, equipment like Blackblade Reforged and Strata Scythe make it quite easy to accomplish with a mono-colored commander
