What is Commander?

Commander is an exciting, unique way to play Magic that is all about awesome legendary creatures, big plays, and battling your friends in epic multiplayer games! In Commander, each player chooses a legendary creature as the commander of their deck. They then play with a 99-card deck that contains only cards of their commander’s colors. Also, other than basic lands, each deck can only use one copy of any card. During the game, you can cast your commander multiple times, meaning your favorite Legendary Creature can come back again and again to lead the charge as you battle for victory!

How do I get started?

Building a Commander deck can feel overwhelming, since you can include cards from every set of Magic ever printed! We recommend starting with a preconstructed Commander deck. We have several for sale at the shop. From there, you can swap out cards with those in your collection to strengthen the deck. Our Commander nights at Just Games are casual and free to play, so don’t stress about having the perfect deck before showing up.
