The Star Trek crossover for Magic is officially in spoiler season, and the first Commander precon has a face: the Borg.
Magic: The Gathering
Spoilers for the Star Trek set rolled out between October 21 and 26, and the headliner is the reveal of the first Commander precon — a Borg deck — alongside a batch of main set cards. If you’ve been waiting to see how assimilation translates to the battlefield, this is your first real look. Check out the full Star Trek spoiler breakdown for the cards shown so far.
The crossover isn’t without growing pains. Star Trek is introducing a huge pile of new creature types, which has reignited a broader conversation about whether Magic’s Universes Beyond push is bloating the creature type pool past the point of being playable. If you care about typal decks or just the long-term health of the type line, this look at Magic’s creature type problem is worth a read.
Sign-off
Resistance is futile — the Borg are coming to your command zone.
