Two Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty Commander decks are released together with Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty. These are meant to be on-ramps to Commander, with a few new cards and the rest reprints.
Description
There are 30 new cards (with printed set code NEC and collector numbers #1/38 to #30/38) printed in the Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty Commander Decks.[3] These cards are legal for play in the Commander, Vintage, and Legacy formats. They aren't legal for play in the Standard, Pioneer, or Modern formats. Eight additional cards with the NEC code (#31/38 to #38/38) can only be found in Set- and Collector Boosters. NEC #39-76 are extended-art versions of the previous cards, and #77-78 are dark frame versions of the two face cards. The other cards in these decks (with printed set code NEC and collector numbers #079-180) 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.[4]
Like with previous decks in the Commander Series, the new cards are themed to the world of the main set and the reprints can be from anywhere. Five reprints feature new art (four of them with new flavor text): Genesis Hydra, Kodama's Reach and Sakura-Tribe Elder, Mossfire Valley and Skycloud Expanse.
Contents
Each package contains:
- A 99-card deck
- 1 foil Commander
- 10 double-sided tokens
- 1 deck box
- 1 life wheel
Cycles and additional cards
Eight additional cards with the NEC code (#31/38 to #38/38) can only be found in the Set and Collector Boosters. They aren't found in the Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty Commander decks. Five of these form the New Myojin cycle.
| Cycle name | 
|
|
|
|
|
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| New Myojin | Myojin of Blooming Dawn | Myojin of Cryptic Dreams | Myojin of Grim Betrayal | Myojin of Roaring Blades | Myojin of Towering Might |
| Five rare legendary spirit creatures. Each of them enters the battlefield with a indestructible counter and it can be removed for an effect. | |||||
The last three additional cards are a rare Ruthless Technomancer and two mythics, Go-Shintai of Life’s Origin and Yoshimaru, Ever Faithful.
Buckle Up
| “ | Hitch a ride with Kotori and her fleet of souped-up vehicles, then run your opponents off the road. If you can master all the ways to bring your artifacts to life, you'll be miles ahead of the competition. | ” |
A new note was added in the original list article on February 18, 2022 to clarify that Ukiyo-e lands cannot be found in the deck and only normal basic land versions are included.[3]
The new cards are:
- Kotori, Pilot Prodigy
- Shorikai, Genesis Engine
- Aerial Surveyor
- Drumbellower
- Ironsoul Enforcer
- Organic Extinction
- Release to Memory
- Swift Reconfiguration
- Access Denied
- Cyberdrive Awakener
- Imposter Mech
- Kappa Cannoneer
- Katsumasa, the Animator
- Research Thief
- Universal Surveillance
Cards printed in Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty, and therefore having that set symbol and code, are:
The double-sided tokens are: [5]
- 2× 4/4 Angel creature with flying and Vigilance // 3/3 Elephant creature
- 1×
1/1 Myr artifact creature // 1/1 Pilot creature with "This creature crews Vehicles as though its power were 2 greater." - 1× 1/1 Spirit creature // 1/1 Myr artifact creature
- 6× 1/1 Spirit creature // 1/1 Thopter artifact creature with flying
Upgrades Unleashed
| “ | Wield Chishiro's blade and cut down all who would stand before you. Unleash the true potential of your creatures with auras, equipment and counters. Together, you are capable of anything! | ” |
The Upgrades Unleashed Commander deck was inadvertently printed with two copies of Mossfire Valley. It was officially stated that players wanting to play the deck in Commander should swap out the extra copy of Mossfire Valley for a basic land or the land of their choice.[3] However, it is suspected that the extra Mossfire Valley was actually supposed to be a Nissa, Voice of Zendikar reprint numbered NEC #122, not a basic land.[6][7] The deck actually provides a plant token for this card. A new note was added in the original list article on February 18, 2022 to clarify that Ukiyo-e lands cannot be found in the deck and only normal basic land versions are included.[3]
The new cards are:
- Chishiro, the Shattered Blade
- Kaima, the Fractured Calm
- Akki Battle Squad
- Collision of Realms
- Concord with the Kami
- Kosei, Penitent Warlord
- Kami of Celebration
- Komainu Battle Armor
- Tanuki Transplanter
- One with the Kami
- Rampant Rejuvenator
- Silkguard
- Ascendant Acolyte
- Smoke Spirits' Aid
- Unquenchable Fury
- Not to be confused with the card of the same name from the Born of the Gods Battle the Horde Challenge Deck.[8]
Cards printed in Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty, and therefore having that set symbol and code, are:
The double-sided tokens are[5]:
- 1× Treasure artifact // Smoke Blessing enchantment aura
- 1× Smoke Blessing enchantment aura // 1/1 Goblin creature
- 1× 1/1 Elemental creature // 2/2 Spirit creature with Menace
- 1× Smoke Blessing enchantment aura // 2/2 Spirit creature with Menace
- 1× 3/3 Beast creature // Treasure artifact
- 1× 1/1 Spirit creature // Treasure artifact
- 1× 0/1 Plant creature // Treasure artifact
- 1× 1/1 Saproling creature // 1/1 Spirit creature
- 1× 2/2 Spirit creature with Menace // 1/1 Spirit creature
