CommanderCast Ep 493 – Commander, Commander, plus Alliances

PODCASTS – CommanderCast

Hello everyone and welcome to CommanderCast Episode 493! This week Mark and Adam are getting a chance to look at the new Commanders from the new Dominaria Commander set. First we take a moment to talk about the Mono-Coler Commanders from the set. We then get down and dirty with all the new mechanics from Dominaria United. We wrap things up with a quick look at some cards from Alliances that are still really good to play with in the modern day of the game.

All that, plus our usual interstitial fodder, and all you have to do is Click the IB!!!
