Commander ad Populum Ep 99: Welcome to Alara

Welcome to another very special episode of Commander ad Populum. Commander for the people, by the people, for the people.

This week, we take our first look at the plane of Alara and the set Shards of Alara. That’s right, we’re spending an entire episode highlighting the abilities, commanders, format staples and hidden gems from Shards of Alara in this week’s set retrospective and associated technical sections!

Five shards, five abilities, five times the fun for me in 2008 when I was first getting back into Magic. Come join me!
