Magic: The Gathering has had a big 2025, but cardboard waits for no Planeswalker – so 2026 looks even more packed, with no fewer than seven sets.
The year kicks off with Lorwyn Eclipsed, and thanks to a surprise Amazon discount ahead of launch, you can save on a pack of four Commander decks to bring them down to a snip at under $34 each.
This Magic Bundle Is Ideal for Two Players
The retailer is offering a 32% discount on the Lorwyn Eclipsed Commander Bundle, which includes two of the Blight Curse and two of the Dance of the Elements decks.
Buying the bundle takes the decks to just under $34 instead of $50 each, and gives you and a friend two decks playable right out of the box to hone your skills, get started with the Commander format, or upgrade at a later date.
Inside the box, there’s a two-card Collector Sample Pack, too, which offers rare treatments of cards from the wider Lorwyn set.
As for that set, the buzz is pretty positive – although we don’t have the finalized decklists for Blight Curse or Dance of the Elements yet.
Blight Curse is a Jund (Black, Red, Green) deck which promises -1/-1 drain and creature combos, while Dance of the Elements is a five-color precon with a gameplan of summoning huge elementals and sacrifice.
They’re up for $49.99 each, but quite often we find one deck spikes in price when the decklists are revealed. Preordering now might be the best chance to lock one, both, or a bundle of four down for a decent price.
Naturally, we'll have all the information on the financial value and how they play as we get closer to launch.
