This could lead you to the question, “Are they worth it?” Conveniently, this is what’s coming up next. This is mainly because us Commander players have been spoiled so much with past products.

This gives them depth and leaves you feeling like there’s more to discover than you notice at first glance. They also each have a subtheme that can be called upon when you want or need to. Each deck offers a few different commanders to put at its helm. Overall, the decks are inventive and balance well against each other. Only if you start with plains, forest, mountain, and island and end with swamp, though.
