Underrated MTG Edge of Eternities Commander precon is at its lowest price now

Magic: The Gathering’s Edge of Eternities set was, for a lot of, overshadowed considerably by the Spider-Man set that adopted instantly afterward. Whereas Peter Parker’s cardboard stint maybe received’t be remembered completely positively, although, we’ve obtained much more constructive issues to say in regards to the recreation’s foray into area (seemingly testing the waters forward of 2026’s Star Trek set).

Except for some nice playing cards in nearly each colour in the primary set, there have been two Commander precons launched alongside it — and considered one of them is on sale at a really welcome low cost on Amazon. Counter Intelligence, the Jeskai (white, blue, and crimson) deck all about proliferating counters (because the title suggests), is now under $35 — nearly 25% off the listing value of $44.99, and basically matching its lowest-ever value (give or take a couple of cents).

The deck is helmed by Kilo, Apogee Mind. It’s a 3/3 with haste that proliferates as soon as it’s tapped, serving to you rack up counters fairly swiftly, particularly on the Spacecraft playing cards that made their debut on this set, too.

With that in thoughts, the second Commander choice is Inspirit, Flagship Vessel. As soon as stationed, it places +1/+1 counters or cost counters on targets, or turns into a flying 5/5 that provides your artifacts hexproof and indestructible.

By way of new playing cards, Depthshaker Titan is a 5/5 that turns your non-creature artifacts into 3/3 creatures for one flip, whereas Perception Engine may be charged up to attract playing cards. It’s good to see playing cards like Tekuthal, Inquiry Dominus, and Cyberdrive Awakener, too.

Briefly, it’s an important deck proper out of the field, and pairs properly with one thing like Krang, Utrom Warlord from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles set.
