We’re on day 3 of Commander Masters spoilers and it’s been a mixed bag. Some of the card choices feel a little dated, but we’ve also seen a bunch of long-awaited reprints like the medallion cycle.

With a higher box price than previous master sets, CMM needs to live up to some pretty lofty expectations. What highlights (and lowlights) have caught your eye?

Out of interest, what do you mean by “dated”?

I’m glad to see older, expensive / hard to find cards being reprinted

I think this is most evident in the choice of legendary creatures, many of which hit the top of EDHrec years ago. Krenko, Omnath, Sidisi, Nekuzar, Mizzix, etc. Along with Land Tax, Commandeer, and Chromatic Lantern, the set seems to reflect the era when Commander was no more than an annual product.

There are so many new legendary creatures and EDH-playable cards released nowadays that, at least in my area, nobody is playing those old decks anymore.
