Oracle text
Menace (This creature can't be blocked except by two or more creatures.)
Lieutenant — At the beginning of combat on your turn, if you control your commander, each opponent loses 3 life.
3/1
Zombies work best when they're fed appropriately, so it's prudent to let them eat on the job.

The lieutenant effect happens only once each combat, even if you somehow control multiple commanders (perhaps because you have two commanders with a partner ability from the Battlebond™ set).
2018-07-13
If you have multiple commanders, you need to control only one for the lieutenant effect to happen.
2018-07-13
If you don’t control your commander as the lieutenant ability resolves, you won’t get its effect.
