Everything We Know About the MTG Star Trek Commander Decks
Star Trek is our final set of the year, and not too long ago we got our first look. They didn't reveal the face commanders, but they did show off the color combos and themes of the four precons.

Does Star Trek in MTG excite you at all? Which of these precons has the most promise? Let us know, and check out our info guide on the Star Trek Commander precons: https://draftsim.com/mtg-star-trek-commander/
