My favorite weird piece of lore from MTG is that homophobia does not exist in the multiverse—yet we can tell from Alesha’s story that transphobia is still a thing.

Kamigawa for the plane ask!
Kamigawa: Your favorite Legendary Creature/EDH general.
I got a few of those, but I also got a number of commanders I really like, so it works out, I'll talk about one in each answer!
Our second pick isn't quite as spicy as the first, but she's awesome in very different ways: Alesha!
Alesha is a very popular commander, and one I picked up relatively soon after she was released in Fate Reforged. I hadn't even read her story yet! She's an awesome character and a great commander, offering bits of value and making creatures that are pretty bad in most decks very powerful, with her cheap recursion.
The cool trans warrior leader card that's both fair and impactful. I don't play her as much these days because I'm a bit of a commander hipster and she's a very popular commander. But this isn't about the decks I play the most often, this is about my favorite legendary creatures, and from character to card, she scores very high in both regards.
I don't remember the last time I updated her deck, but I won't take it apart anytime soon.

I am very normal and not at all emotional about finding out that, even after 1200 years and in spite of everything, Alesha is remembered as a hero and remains part of the cultural fiber of her clan. That she's such a fundamentally important figure to trans people in her culture that, even after all this time, other trans people still go out of their way associate themselves with her. Yes. Very normal.

The Multiversal Girlboss battle is over!
Let's take a moment to look at the top 8 of our fine competition.
#1 - Vraska, Queen of the Golgari
With a resume sporting feats of assassination, piracy, and a successful hostile overtaking of a swarm-like guild, it's unsurprising she'd find herself at the top.
#2 - Alesha, Khan of the Mardu
This Khan who smiles at death viciously fought her way to the top, on the back of not only her incredible list of feats but also the fact that she is, indeed, transgender.
Tied for #3 - Liliana Vess
Though I doubt she'd settle for tying, she'll have to accept it. This intrepid necromancer has seen the most limelight of any of the girlbosses in this tourney. I would go so far as to say that in her early years she defined what it meant to be a Magic girlboss. Unfortunately for her, her recently compromised girlboss status due to a pesky thing called "character growth" doomed her to third place.
Tied for #3 - Teysa Karlov
Opportunistic and cutthroat, Teysa's slow climb of the Orzhov ladder, leaving her effectively at the top of a corporate AND religious hierarchy, gave her a strong case for her ascension to the title of ultimate girlboss. Unfortunately, she lost out to someone who was actually able to take over a guild.
Tied for #5 - Queen Marchesa D'Amati
Long may reign the queen of Fiora, but let it be known that this is the highest title that she will achieve.
Tied for #5 - Nahiri, the Lithomancer
While Nahiri has surely taken some girlboss actions (read: committed some war crimes), her status as a repeated failgirl blocked her from ascending any further in this competition.
Tied for #5 - Ashnod the Uncaring
Speaking of war crimes, it's Ashnod! In spite both of her numerous felonies and her sporting that bob (one of the most girlboss hairstyles) she fell just short of greatness in this one.
Tied for #5 - Emrakul, The Promised End
Rounding out our list we have Emrakul. We hope she's having fun up there in the moon, and we hope she knows we're ready for her to join us whenever she wants.
