Rulings

If you cast a commander from your hand, the additional cost based on the number of times you've cast it from your command zone (sometimes referred to as the "commander tax") doesn't apply. Additionally, that casting won't add to the tax if you later cast the commander from the command zone.

If your commander isn't in the command zone (or you're not playing Commander) as the last ability resolves, nothing happens.

If you have two commanders with the partner ability in the command zone, Command Beacon's effect puts one of your choice into your hand, not both.
