Wizards of the Coast dropped a preview of the four Doctor Who<\/em> Commander Magic: The Gathering <\/em>preconstructed decks at MagicCon Minneapolis, featuring every Doctor from the series along with companions and villains. <\/p>
Scheduled to officially launch on Oct. 13, the MTG Doctor Who <\/em>set contains four preconstructed Commander decks and collector booster packs. There are a total of 50 new Magic<\/em> cards in each Precon, along with reprints, similar to the Warhammer 40,000 <\/em>Commander preconstructed decks<\/a>. <\/p>
Players can have two commanders on the battlefield at the same time through a new MTG <\/em>mechanic called Doctor’s Companion<\/a>, and each Doctor Who<\/em> Commander Precon will contain Planechase cards<\/a> that explore the various worlds from the infamous television series. And some companions in the Doctor Who<\/em> set have Partner<\/a>, for players who don’t want to run a Doctor as a commander. <\/p>
