Emperor Commander

Alternative formats for Magic: the Gathering are a blast. Team formats especially can allow you to play with friends in ways that you otherwise just couldn't.

For those unfamiliar with Emperor, here is the gist. You play on a 3 player team. Each team has an Emperor and 2 Lieutenants. Lieutenants face of against a specific Lieutenant on the opposing team(s). Emperors can not attack or be attacked until one of their lieutenants has been defeated. The goal of the game is to take out the opposing Emperor.

Now let's add commander to the mix: Everything is better with commander!!!

Jake's Product Reviews and speculation.

It's been a while since my last post, which seems the norm anymore. I think that may be alright. There are a few things I'd like to talk about today. All my attention (well 99%) in Magic: the Gathering has been allocated towards casual magic. I have been collecting and playing the planeswalker precon decks, am looking forward to the next archenemy set, and have some thoughts about where I'd go if I were doing the next commander set.
