    Commander 2018 Info and Spoilers

    We get info on this tomorrow at 2 PM Pacific time. Probably just the themes of the decks for now, but all C18 info and spoilers can be posted here.

    Don't get your hopes up for Legacy playables.

    I choose to interpret this as confirmation that OG duals are being reprinted.

    Fight me.

    They could print Commander-related duals that work like normal duals in Legacy whenever they want. They just don't.

    We know. Instead they reprint multi-player duals without landtypes in supplemental sets.

    Honestly, if they just gave the "checklands" basic land types and included the word "other" on them, they'd be a perfectly fine budget dual replacement that would work the same for the vast majority of Legacy players.

    You forgot to include cards that fit into various Stax or Stompy decks.

    There will also be one card that's fine in Commander but broken in half in competitive.

    I guess there is more for Nic Fit and DnT than for Stax or Stompy. You wanna take bets? :P

    Except the ones who want to act on turn one.

    The PW are not impressive.Their pictures are sorta odd.

    Windrace the BRG, might fit into some fringe 4c Loam Decks to bring back BB Ring, Cabal pit and DA.

    Saheeli might be decent? She can come down and +1 and immediately drop an artifact like say an ensnaring Bridge? I dunno if she's actually good enough though. In Grixis Tez I'd rather have Tez and probably Dack first.

    This thing will be insane in Commander, but also could see Vintage play.

    That seems pretty win more: You have to have her and a bunch of artifacts in play, when you could just cast the bridge instead.

    Treasure Nabber is gonna get people's asses kicked when they pick up power 9 roughly. Saheeli's Directive seems like a very high potential, narrow card, Varchild will spike Defense of the Heart.
