- For Magic's next set Outlaws of Thunder Junction there are four commander precons focused around the various mechanics from the set. I break down the four face commanders and talk about the types of decks they lead for this new set including outlaws, casting your opponents' cards, storming off, and deserts.

These look like famous mtg characters having a halloween party and everybody decided to dress cowboys by accident
Terrible design choises
That’s basically the set lol
And they’re all pissed someone stole their idea
So like literally a hearthstone set
Gonti is in the perfect colours for Villainous Wealth let me cook!! 🔥🔥
easiest reprint of mtgs life
lookit guys! izzet got a legendary copy spell creature, haven’t seen that before
Oh well at least we have a naya commander that cares about tokens. That's completely original!
pretty sure this is only the third card ever to care about casting three spells in a turn, and tapping to copy is huge for combos and methods of generating value. I think this commander's decks will be plenty different from existing decks, and it will make for a fairly unique combo piece in certain decks, especially decks that include white
What will they think of next, Boros equipment?
@@skillganon606 mfw when selesnya gets another anthem commander: 😱
@@skillganon606 no, that's just crazy. They wouldn't do something so outlandish
I noticed that, if Stella had been Jeskai rather than Izzet, Thunder Junction Commander decks would have had the exact same color identities as the Fallout ones.
Well, i need a Yuma secret lair as the mandalorian
Is it just me or does stella lees art look like a leauge of legends splash art
So happy to see my man Gonti but where tf did green come from for him
Wotc try to make a naya precon for every set challenge(epic fail, gone wrong)
I really feel like either Naya, Jeskai, or Izzet show up way too much. And I'm an Izzet main.
@@FatalWarGhostizzet had its last deck in strixhaven! Definitely not a common precon color.
@@questionyourself718 Izzet got a deck in Battle for Baldur's Gate
@@m3e7 true, forgot about that. Still not that common. 2 Decks in 3 Years. Or 3 Decks in 3 years if you wanna Count the new one coming this april.
Graveyard shenanigans in Naya is kinda weird, tbh
Gonti looks super fun
Etali is a better boy to steal other ppl cards. Not the gonti xD
@@bigtree3187 very true!
@@bigtree3187yeah but he would be a gruul commander wich is not really the best combination to steal others cards. Gonti is in the perfect colors.
@@bigtree3187 Etali = lame spino from jurassic park. Gonti = stylish crimelord energy entity.
Wow, I'm happy I found this video, since I was actually thinking of building a deck around Hazezon. Guess I'll have to take a look at some stuff I could do with Yuma now
Yuma land destruction and sacrifice, would be crazy
Olivia's effect looks like merfolk from wish
I'm new to the game, but isn't hakbal doing something similar but better?? Correct me if I'm wrong
@@pinguinoequatoriale much better. With hakbal, each combat phase every merfolk can explore for free. Then if you declare an attack with hakbal, you can either put a land from your hand or draw a card. With Olivia, your creatures must do combat damage (with hakbal they automatically explore the moment your battle phase begins, even if they don't attack). Then (with Olivia) you need at least 2 monsters to deal damage and have to pay 3 mana on top of that.
I think tibalt will always be the best cast opponents stuff commander you just have to load the deck with ramp.
You haven't lived till you cast your opponents whole deck with Villianous Wealth.
Imagine a Ragavan Voltron deck
I am going for the Pre-Con with Olivia, Opulent Outlaw as the commander, I love to attack and I love making treasures and so this pre-con deck is perfect for me. Especially I can use extra combat steps for the deck.
Get yourself a Seize the Day. The Card has always performed well for me in Commander.
Yuma looks interesting, and he definitely will give Haezon a run for his money, but I still think Haezon is better. He gives more bodies when a desert enters, he is a crucible of worlds (for deserts) on a body. The only thing I see that is valuable on Yuma as a commander is he avoids commander tax pretty easily, but I will hold judgement until I see the full precon. I’ve been wanting deserts to get support for a long time and this set/precon has my attention just for that.
hopefully more deserts will be made
Man, I'm puttingna copy of Yuma IN my Hazezon deck.
@@royplatt455 same I’ve been wanting to run a Haezon deck for a while he has always been the landfall commander I’ve kept my eyes on.
I really felt like they missed the mark on Olivia
Honestly I would have preferred it if they would have just changed the text to it creates a treasure token for each instead of that. It could have a downside similar to something like you lose 2 life whenever you sacrifice a treasure or something to offset. Or something.
I really don't like that she doesn't care about vampires. Seriously, what part of her is at all relevant to any of her previous versions?
At least make the second ability only put counters on vampires. That way she would encourage you to find cards that were both vampires and outlaws.
@@seandun7083 I get what you're saying. However I don't think counters matters really fits this card. I do think this card should make more treasures and I think it should have a established way to dig deeper to find more vampires to make more treasures. Maybe it could have been something like something of a Lord effect. Maybe the vampires with +1 + 1 counters or some kind of counters would allow your vampires to make treasures. As this game progresses just plain old counters matters is too slow. But they definitely could have improved on this idea
@@seandun7083I wouldn't mind her having a vampire theme but that's not what they were going for in this set.
There's also the fact that they are going out of their way to avoid printing anything that could be considered a Mardu vampire commander outside of the OG Edgar.
@@MCC17011 but why bother making the card an Olivia if they aren't going to do a card that makes sense as Olivia? Tarkir didn't have a vampire sub theme either, but Sorin still made vampire tokens. Even just having the counter ability make then into vampires or something would tie it back to versions.
@@seandun7083 because this set is a mish-mash of characters from all over MTG. They wanted her in even though there's no room for a vampire theme, so this is the result. TBH there's a good chance they decided on Olivia before pinning down her abilities, and her design may be a victim to that. I wouldn't be shocked if her activated ability turned things into vampires, but was changed late to avoid competing with Edgar.
Stella Lee is going to be amazing in my Eruth I can't wait
Olivia is just mardu malcolm, keen eye navigator
Seems like i can use the new gonti in mothman deck to further "mill" their deck
Yeah just in the 99 sounds good
Love your videos.
Gonti and Captain Ngthrod
idk about the rest of them but i got the yuma deck and its a lot of fun and i won some games with it against other precond
I’m so so so happy my main man gonti got the reprint treatment of a life time. Three colors and he’s hot. LETS GOOOOO
alredy preordered the steal cards one hehe
We need to hear your thoughts on locust of eternity
More desert tech!
Lee might be fun to try out, Without swamp or plains I do not think building tribal for her would work but she looks pretty tailored for a spellslinging burn type deck, I don't have one of those yet and never played the like in commander, Will have to see what kinda card base it comes with
I broke my Hazazon desert deck a while ago but now I think there’s a new sheriff in town with Yuma 🤩
Grabbing Gonti immediately.
Stella can just win turn 2 in cedh decks. With the right mana rocks, cast her turn 1. Drop Ral Storm conduit turn 2 and cast a copy spell from you hand, copying it with stella. Bouncing the copies off eachother, win with Ral damage
... You don't need Stella for that. Ral does it on his own with his -2.
@seandun7083 you need to cast a spell first to copy, tho, gotta have something to copy with one of the abilities- I misspoke but yes it works between ral and Stella as long as you have a burn spell or something. Cast a copyable* spell from your hand
@@dovakev right, forgot you would need a valid target. I guess that does mean you would need Stella since the other instant or sorcery would trigger the -2.
Stella does also go infinite with Dramatic Reversal + and any tap ability.
I am whelmed
I need that Gonti card in my life
I really liked party so im probably going to build outlaws just wish the colors were a bit different than party
they good bro
I want the izzet deck
On Gonti, can you look at the card once it goes face down?
Well, I'm usually never interested in precon decks since they're usually creature or combat focused but man Gonti's deck seems fun. Stealing my opponent's deck is definitely something i can get behind.
GONTIIII
"Might be the best commander for casting your opponents spells." Haldan & Pako crying rn
Yuma=mandalorian
When did gonti get blue and green as a color??
When will we have the complete decklist ?
Do the precons come with the borderless art or is this a collector booster only kind of thing
So wait can you look at cards exiled with gonti after you exile them?
So I just got into magic I opened a few packs and I do have Gonti do you guys recommend him for a beginner mtg player
They missed an opportunity for a "howdy partner" deck lol and have a bunch of partners
The only unique one is Yuma. I feel like the other commanders already have extremely recent and common abilities, especially the treasure tokens.
Why didn't they use Pedro Pascal for Yuma's art?
3 different effects on a card is just normal now
Does double strike trigger olivia twice?
Gonti and Xanathar would be a good duo
I am one of the people who got the new phyrexia reference
Wait are these the arts that come in the precons
Jesus christ, it really is just random legends from throughout magics history but with frills or cowboy hats...
I wish all four of the commanders where returning villains
Yuma is just cowboy mandalorian 😂
Looking at Olivia, I can't help but feel that League did the whole gothic western vibe FAR better. I mean, all they really did here was give her a hat and boots.
It also just isn't an Olivia card. It doesn't care about vampires at all or share much of anything mechanically with her previous cards.
I just want Gonti. Sultai doesn't have many good commanders.
I built an Olivia deck, I didn’t know she was precon wtf
I'm confused is this going to be a story set or a side set they are bringing back alot of characters from the past
Love the flavor of white on Olivia. She and Edgar got married after all, only fitting she adds her new husband's color to her casting cost
I mean that's nice, but I really don't like that she doesn't care about vampires at all or really do anything to call back to any of her previous versions.
I dont need a third mardu deck.

Nope Etali is the best commander for casting your opponents spells
as someone who has made both etalli and gix decks, gix is 10x better on a low budget but etali does get the win otherwise
With etali, you cast your opponents' cards only when you cast etali. With gonti, you cast your opponents' cards whenever any of your creatures deals damage. By that math, I'm pretty sure etali is not the best. Plus etali is mono colored 😅
@@marvelking4731Etali Primal Conqueror is Gruul and easily repeatable
@dave7592 my mistake, but gonti is still easier, only having to rely on its own effect.
@dave7592
I mean, good luck casting Etali when I've stolen all your ramp using Gonti lmao
Tons of unblockable creatures in Sultai.
Arthus with a cowboy hat nice wotc... Lol
Why is Yuma cowboy Mandalorian and why is baby Bristly Bill cowboy Grogu?
It says a lot when even the mtg shorts shovelware channels don't have a lot to say about these
Gonti should have been grixis 😭 no part of his effect is green wizards
That last is wrong, that not yuna. It's din djarin with baby yoda
Gonti sounds like a better version of ixhel
I would be super excited to build Stella Lee if I had the willpower the resist all of the obvious degenerate combos that would get me team killed forever for having played them ever
Is this set canonical?
Yes
Bro Hazezon is only 3 mana. The extra 5 MANA is way too much to make him worth it
Yeah but you’ll almost never pay that amount. It doesn’t seem crazy that you’re paying 3-5 mana each time you cast it since it can reduce the commander tax too.
costs 1 less for each land in your graveyard and the deck is about discarding lands
@@MTGReconI definitely misread the first line. Still a lot more than I'd like to spend. Its strength is probably gonna be hella dependent on how many good deserts are printed in Outlaws. Cuz if they're not good enough ppl might have to run a Lotta caves and other things that sac themselves. Land decks that revolve around losing your own lands kinda rub the the wrong way personally, though.
Even with commander tax, it's never gonna cost 8.
A deck built around that commander is going to have a steady stream of lands entering and leaving the Graveyard.
Nah, i think Hazezon brings way too much value off of playing deserts. I have a Hazezon deck and it is absurd hiw quickly you can build up an army of sand warriors to beat people down with.
God, I hate this 'lets put a cowboy hat on our bad guys' set. It feels like someone at hasbro has a specific fetish and told them to make a whole set based around it.
Olivia is honestly just uninteresting to me
Yeah. She stopped caring about vampires entirely and is both an enabler and a payoff.
Copies of spells do not add to the storm count.
They have been progressively making Olivia less attractive through the sets she’s in.
These are all so mid compared to 99% of other commanders.
The olivia one looks very... Boring.
Of course,the commanders are ALL meh except the only one with green...It's getting irritating
Wow, these are so lame.
These are so terrible, specially Gonti, I really was hopping for it to be good..
God this set is so ass
Thought they were actually going to do something cool and new with the western themed set but no they literally just use the same characters and slap out of place cowboy hats onto them and call it a day
I hate this set... It's trash and like a hearthstone set... It's stupid and silly... And the fact this and murders are both canon is moronic...
Why
Not going to lie, i got most at the Gonti commander.
This entire set feels like WotC has given up and checked out from ever making anything unique. So glad I've quit buying their product.
Gonti and Captain Ngthrod
