It's time to sleeve up those Sol Rings and get ready to duke it out at Monday Night Commander! Every week we're running separate pods for traditional Commander (Brackets 1-3), High Power Commander (Bracket 4), and CEDH (Bracket 5) so you can join whichever fits your preferred power level. Monday Night Commander will use the official Commander banlist linked here:
https://magic.wizards.com/en/banned-restricted-list
Entry is $5, with one random player from each regular Commander pod receiving a Set Booster pack from a recent Standard set, and players receiving $5 store credit per knock-out. For High Power Commander & CEDH, store credit prizes will be Winner-Take-All (e.g. in a 4-player pod, the winner gets $20).
In order to facilitate more fun and interactive games in the regular (non-competitive) Commander pods, we have instituted a “Turn Six” rule - players cannot play infinite combos before their sixth turn. This includes actual infinite combos (e.g. Kinnan + Basalt Monolith) as well as technically non-infinite combos such as Niv-Mizzet + Curiosity or Demonic Consultation + Thassa’s Oracle. This is at our discretion and judged by the spirit rather than the letter of the rule.
In order to see what the best pod for your deck is, refer to the most recent update on the Commander Brackets system at

All Magic events will require entry using the email attached to your Wizards Account. Optionally, it is even easier to join by downloading the MTG Companion app, where you can also view pairings, report match results, and more. Read more below:
