A few days ago, Magic Head Designer Mark Rosewater addressed some concerns about the lack of Commander decks for Marvel's Spider-Man. According to Rosewater, Spider-Man was too small of a set initially to make a Commander precon tied to the set. However, this doesn't rule out any chances of future Marvel properties getting a Commander tie-in.

On a Blogatog post from Rosewater dated Saturday, July 26th, 2025, a Tumblr user asked the designer why we weren't getting Commander decks for the upcoming Marvel's Spider-Man. To this, Rosewater replied:

As I’ve explained in other posts, it started as something different than what it ended up. We had some ability to adapt it, but there simply wasn’t the ability timewise to add additional products that weren’t originally planned. There will be Marvel-themed Commander decks made in the future.

This dispels many doubts of there being thematic Commander precons based on Marvel in the future. However, it also sheds more light on Spider-Man. The interaction shown above highlights that the set was much smaller than it is now. This, in turn, gives the implication that Marvel's Spider-Man was slated to have Beyond Boosters. Because Universes Beyond: Assassin's Creed was largely seen as a commercial failure for players, players today speculate that this upcoming set changed its tune at the last minute to accommodate that shift.

While we won't be getting Commander decks for your friendly neighborhood web-slinging superhero, Rosewater has assured players that Marvel Commander decks will come in some capacity. Below is a very short shortlist of possible Marvel properties we may get Commander decks for:

• Avengers
• X-Men
• X-Force
• Fantastic Four

So now, with this in mind, we'd love to open the floor to you, dear readers! Are there any specific Marvel properties that you'd like to see get Commander decks? And while anything is mutable until release, do you stand by Mark Rosewater's statement regarding these precons? Sound off in the comments below!
