Set details
Commander 2017 features four 100-card preconstructed theme decks. There are 56 new cards legal in Vintage and Legacy. Each of the four decks will be themed around a tribal component, based on the "most popular, and interesting, tribes".[3] Cards from Commander 2017 will be featured and distributed in connection with a future offering on Magic Online.
Each preconstructed deck was designed with an identity for each tribe group:
- ("dragon matter")
- ("Feline Ferocity")

- ("tribe 4 matter")
Mechanics
- Commander 2017 introduces eminence, an ability word that occurs on 5 bicolored legendary creatures. Each of these creatures gives a tribal style of Commander deck to build.
