Peace Offering Bloomburrow Commander Precon Upgrade Guide
Bloomburrow brings with it four new Commander Precon decks, and today we’re focusing on Peace Offering, a rather curious idea for a precon. Not because it’s lackluster or anything like that, but rather because the archetype it embraces, Group Hug, is one of the most tricky and political archetypes to pilot. That said, the pieces are definitely already here for …

Graveyard Overdrive – Modern Horizons 3 Commander Precon Upgrade Guide
Modern Horizons 3 marks for a departure from the standardized Modern Horizons 3 release: It’s shipping with 4 Commander Decks. Graveyard Overdrive is a love-letter to Jund, filled with Lhurgoyfs, making Tarmogoyf tokens, and otherwise junding-’em-out. How is it out of the box? What tweaks can kick things up a notch? Let’s get our hands dirty and find out. NEW …
Creative Energy – Modern Horizons 3 Commander Precon Upgrade Guide
What’s this? Commander precon decks (like Creative Energy) in MY Modern Horizons set?!? In the current Commander-forward era of Magic, it’s more likely than you’d think. Confusing product names aside, I think that it actually makes good sense to release new precons alongside MH3.
