Is Klingon Fury worth buying?

from MTG Star Trek Commander Decks: Are They Worth It? by Timothy Zaccagnino

I can totally get on board with Klingon Fury. It circumvents the main problem of the previous two decks in that it’s not just a bunch of dudes standing around grinning. Now they’re all angry and in battle poses. But that’s enough to make this feel more like a Magic precon and not some foreign Star Trek TCG.

And honestly, Magic could use more dedicated aggro precons. We get them every now and then, but I feel like they always shoehorn in some aristocrats plan or focus too heavily on a specific creature type. Klingon Fury does a little bit of both of those things, but it still has a central theme of just filling up the board and attacking players to death. Bonus points for battlefront being a fun and intuitive new mechanic that rewards aggression.

Totally fine theme, digestible art, new cards worth paying attention to, and enough of a smattering of reprint value to get both my thumbs in the air.

How Klingon Fury plays

Klingon Fury is a Mardu precon that combines an aggro gameplan with a typal theme related to Klingons and warriors. It introduces the new battlefront mechanic, or abilities that scale up with the number of players you’ve attacked in a turn. Kind of like melee with different output than just a power/toughness bump. Worf, Defiant Commander and Kor, Cause of Vengeance are both competent commanders here, depending on whether you want your commander to provide value or push damage.

This isn’t a very complicated deck. All the themes point towards attacking, and most of the typal elements just make your Klingon creatures better attackers, so everything’s pretty tight here. There are a few spacecraft to keep things interesting, and I don’t mind the art in this deck. There are a lot fewer Klingons just standing around for the camera, and they’re at least a visually distinct race from the pile of humans and humanoids in the Bant or Jeskai decks.
