Open guide Before your first draft
Five steps that keep a Mystery Booster Commander pod moving smoothly.
- 1
Learn pick-two Commander Draft
Open three Mystery Booster Commander Edition packs, take two cards each pick, and pass left, right, then left again before building a 60-card commander deck.
- 2
Check the partner colour exception
In these draft events, legendary creatures with one or fewer colours in their colour identity can be treated as though they have partner—pair carefully.
- 3
Read Rulebreaker before sleevedown
Rulebreaker abilities change deck construction only when that card is your commander. Confirm what breaks and what stays legal.
- 4
Separate constructed legality
New MBC cards become legal in Commander, Legacy, and Vintage after Festival in a Box: Atlanta. Playtest and acorn cards stay Limited-only.
- 5
Plan where you will play
Watch MagicCon Atlanta events and Festival in a Box drops—this product is convention- and Secret Lair-forward, not a typical weekly LGS print run.
