Welcome to the world of Commander! Whether you’ve been playing Magic for years or you’re completely new here, you’ve probably heard of Commander. But what even is Commander, and how do you play it? Let’s get into the rules and details of Magic’s...
Read moreMonarch is a mechanic that shines the brightest in multiplayer games, particularly for Commander. It’s a great way to give your game a more “political” dynamic. It creates incentives to build alliances and causes everyone to take action as soon...
