Two Kaldheim Commander Decks are released together with Kaldheim. These are meant to be on-ramps to Commander, with a few new cards (eight per deck) and the rest reprints.[3]

Description

There are 16 new cards (with printed set code KHC and collector numbers #001–016) printed in the Kaldheim Commander Decks, more than in the Zendikar Rising or Commander Legends ones (14 rares, 2 mythic rares).[4] These cards are legal for play only in the Commander, Vintage, and Legacy formats. The other cards in these decks (with printed set code KHC and collector numbers 017–119) are legal for play in any format that already allows those cards; that is, appearing in these decks doesn't change a card's legality in any format.[5]
