@garretble @jarno it's common for people to have multiple commander decks to choose from so they can select the deck that best suits their mood, shows off their creativity, or hits the right power level. Using proxies (with commissioned art, printed at home, or written on a slip of paper and inserted into the sleeve) is common if the playgroup approves.
There are also competitive variants.
Final Fantasy was the set that got me into Magic because I'm a big FF fan and I have a friend who has been playing for 30 years that convinced me I needed these cards, ha.
But I like that each of the pre-constructed decks I have (4 FF ones, and now 2 Edge of Eternities) all have two commanders to choose from in the decks. It's really nice to play with a different one to get a bit of a different flavor to the deck. And with 100 cards, it takes a few matches to really see all the cards come out. It's great.
I've mostly played just 2 player games, but have also played a few 3 player games. It's been enjoyable each time.
@garretble glad you're having fun!
Thanks!
Yeah, last weekend I was up until like 3am playing Magic, so I might have a problem, ha.
