MTG Commander & Commander league
Commander at Play or Draw
What is Commander format for Magic the Gathering?
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! The Commander format is all about picking your hero and building a deck around them. In this casual, multiplayer format, you choose a legendary creature to serve as your commander and build the rest of your deck around their color identity.
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!
Rules
Decks have one Commander, generally a legendary creature or card with the ability that allows the card to be used as a Commander. Decks may contain only cards from the chosen Commander's color identity. Players start with 40 life rather than the usual 20. See MTG Commander Format | Magic: The Gathering (wizards.com) for comprehensive rules.
Usage
Great for casual group play.
Deck Size
100 cards (1 Commander and 99 others)
Sideboard
None.
1 Card Limit
No more than one of any individual card in the deck (with the exception of basic lands).
Banned List
Please reference Banned & Restricted | Magic: The Gathering (wizards.com) for the most up-to-date information about Banned & Restricted cards.
