Tribal Commanders in Magic: The Gathering Commander 2017

Magic: The Gathering's Commander 2017 released August 25, 2017 with four ready-to-play preconstructed decks, each built around a strong new legendary creature commander and a distinct tribal theme. Commander players should care because these decks arrive fully assembled with exciting new cards, strong reprints, and clear upgrade paths, letting you sit down for multiplayer games right out of the box while exploring Cats, Vampires, Dragons, or Wizards tribal strategies.

Feline Ferocity

Feline Ferocity is led by its face commander Arahbo, Roar of the World in a white-green color identity. The deck focuses on Cat tribal with an emphasis on equipment, +1/+1 counters, and combat tricks. Arahbo grants your Cats lifelink and power boosts when they attack. At the table it plays as a combat-focused aggro strategy that builds a wide board of Cats and uses equipment and buffs for lethal swings. Expect to pilot a straightforward tribal deck that rewards attacking with an evasive, lifegain-enabled swarm, making it ideal if you enjoy go-wide creature strategies that feel aggressive yet resilient in casual Commander games.

Vampiric Bloodlust

Vampiric Bloodlust is led by its face commander Edgar Markov in a white-black-red color identity. The deck is built around Vampire tribal with an emphasis on creating Vampire tokens and aggressive combat. Edgar Markov creates Vampire tokens whenever you attack with Vampires. At the table it plays as a fast combat-focused aggro strategy that drains opponents while building an overwhelming board. Expect to pilot an explosive midrange deck that rewards tribal synergies and consistent pressure, making it a strong choice if you like aggressive three-color decks that feel punishing and fun in multiplayer.

Draconic Domination

Draconic Domination is led by its face commander The Ur-Dragon in a five-color color identity. The deck focuses on Dragon tribal with ramp, big flying threats, and Dragon synergy. The Ur-Dragon reduces the cost of Dragons and grants them a powerful attack trigger. At the table it plays as a combat-focused ramp strategy that deploys giant flying creatures and overwhelms opponents with overwhelming aerial force. Expect to pilot a high-impact midrange deck that rewards building around Dragons and casting expensive spells, making it ideal for players who enjoy powerful, straightforward five-color tribal in casual Commander.

Arcane Wizardry

Arcane Wizardry is led by its face commander Inalla, Archmage Ritualist in a blue-black-red color identity. The deck emphasizes Wizard tribal with an emphasis on ETB effects, copying creatures, and wizard synergies. Inalla allows you to create token copies of Wizards when they enter the battlefield. At the table it plays as a value engine and combo-oriented strategy that generates repeated triggers and incremental advantage. Expect to pilot a flexible midrange deck that rewards clever Wizard interactions and token generation, making it a great pick if you enjoy Grixis decks that feel interactive and explosive in multiplayer games.
