The feel of it

Why it lands at the table

Commander is the most popular multiplayer format of Magic: The Gathering. Each player brings a hundred-card singleton deck led by a legendary creature, the commander, who sits ready to be cast at any time.

Games are social and long, with deals, threats and a lot of table talk. Players start at forty life.

The owner has several ready-made Commander decks, so players new to Magic can borrow one.
