Kolaghan's Command
 
Modal spells are among my favorite things in Magic, and I have to say that the Commands from Dragons of Tarkir don't disappoint. I like how "choose two" calls back to Lorwyn's similarly-named cards, because remembering history is very important. I like how the range of effects is wide enough that you really never feel bad about maindecking any of them. I like that Aang and Korra and their friends (who obviously inspired Tarkir, even if Wizards of the Coast would never admit it) would appreciate the melding of colors and spell effects, and I like how Kolaghan's in particular is all but always a two-or-more-for-one in colors that sometimes struggle with versatility and when dealing with card-counting strategies.
