Are Precons Leaving Room For Players to Brew?

Commander Theory

Preconstructed decks are one of the main ways Commander gets new cards and staples injected into the format. A lot of decisions are made about how the new cards are designed, what old cards get reprints, and how they play together, but is there more? There's always going to be a debate about the value for the player and reprint equity, but how do cards being delivered in a made-to-play setting shape the format itself? In this episode (recorded a while ago but being released now) Nick and Zak crunch the numbers. What cards stayed in people's builds of the commander deck commanders? What did they play with and take out? What trends can we see, and how does this affect the format as a whole? Listen, find out, and then use the links below to contact us and tell you what think!
