🔍 Summary:
Charlie Hall of Polygon shares his growing enthusiasm for Magic: The Gathering, particularly the Commander format, in his latest article. He highlights the Tarkir: Dragonstorm Commander Deck – Temur Roar, a new 100-card deck that focuses on deploying powerful dragons to defeat opponents. This strategy, known as “ramp,” allows players to accumulate mana quickly to summon dragons early in the game. The deck features Ureni of the Unwritten, a spirit dragon that can bring other dragon cards into play for free, potentially unleashing several high-value creatures by the fifth turn.
Hall notes that the deck, which is set in the popular Tarkir plane, offers great value and thematic depth, making it one of the best Commander decks in recent times. He also points out that with a few additional cards, the deck’s power significantly increases, all for under $100. Given the deck’s affordability and the high resale value of the cards, Hall suggests that even those not planning to use the deck immediately might consider purchasing it as an investment. The Tarkir: Dragonstorm decks have just launched and are reportedly selling fast, indicating strong interest from the Magic: The Gathering community.
