Show Notes:

We know Commander precons are very powerful these days, but how well do they actually line up against precons from Magic’s past?

In this epic episode of Extra Turns, we’re putting precons from across time against each other to find out! Content creator Brian David Gilbert (Dropout TV) and screenwriter/culture writer Karen Han (The New York Times, Slate) join JLK and Rachel to face off with four powerful decks from different eras pulled straight out of the box. Which iconic Commander will come out on top?

It’s Anje vs. Bello vs. Mimeoplasm vs. Breya
