Magic: The Gathering Foundations Commander decks restocked at Amazon, but only as a five-deck bundle
Amazon has reportedly restocked the five Foundations Commander decks for Magic: The Gathering at the $30 MSRP, but only when bought together. Single decks cost more, and some sell far above retail on the secondary market.
Amazon has reportedly restocked the five Foundations Commander decks for Magic: The Gathering, with one catch: the MSRP price applies only to a bundle containing all five. Buying decks one at a time costs more than MSRP.
This story rests on community and press reporting alone. No official Wizards of the Coast source backs it yet, so everything below is reported rather than confirmed.
What is available and at what price
The reported MSRP for each Foundations Commander deck is $30.
According to the report, the bundle is the only way to get that price. Buyers who go piecemeal pay above MSRP.
The secondary market is steeper still. Some of the decks have reportedly reached as high as $60, and Tramplesaurus Rex is the example named. That mono-green deck was still listed at $79.95 through a third-party seller.
Put simply, the five-deck bundle currently sits below the going rate for at least some individual decks. Seller prices can change quickly, so any figure here is a snapshot rather than a guarantee.
The five decks
The lineup consists of five mono-colored decks, pitched as an on-ramp that brings new players into the Commander format.
- Reign of Dragons: mono-red dragons, with an aggressive game plan.
- Wretched Ranks: a zombie deck described as ripe for upgrades.
- Keen Engineering: mono-blue, built around outmaneuvering opponents.
- Calling All Angels: an angel deck described as powerful.
- Tramplesaurus Rex: mono-green, centered on big creatures and mana ramp.
Every deck has alternate art for its Commander. Apart from that, the decks are reprints.
Context
The decks launched alongside the current Magic set, Reality Fracture. That set has also been in the news recently, including its reported Vintage play.
What is still unknown
It is not confirmed whether Wizards of the Coast has done a fresh print run. The outlet behind the report has asked Wizards of the Coast about it and is waiting for an answer. Until that arrives, how long the Amazon bundle stays available is unclear.
What it means for players
- The bundle offers the reported $30-per-deck MSRP, while individual decks have reportedly reached as high as $60 on the secondary market or been listed at $79.95.
- Because the MSRP deal covers all five decks together, it suits buyers who want the whole set. Anyone after a single deck would pay more.
- All five decks are mono-colored and aimed at newcomers to Commander, so they work as a starting point for the format.
- Since the decks are reprints with alternate Commander art, the main differences between them are theme and color rather than new cards.
