Pokemon TCG was in a bit of lull over the course of December 2023 as a lot of their major releases hit near Black Friday in November (see "November 2023")
The new cards allow players to choose which side of the card theyd prefer to put into play on the battlefield
ThisThe Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earthCommander Deck set includes 1 ready-to-play deck of 100 Magic cards (2 Traditional Foil Legendary Creature cards, 98 nonfoil cards), a 2-card Collector Booster Sample Pack (contains 1 Traditional Foil or nonfoil special treatment card of rarity Rare or higher and 1 Traditional Foil special treatment Common or Uncommon card), 1 foil-etched Display Commander (a thick cardstock copy of the commander card with foil etched into the cards border and art), 10 double-sided tokens, 1 Helper card, 1 deck box (can hold 100 sleeved cards), 1 Life Wheel, 1 strategy insert, and 1 reference card
Feel free to speculate wildly in the comments below.
I do think that theres a lot of fun to be had with these cards, but the way you get attractions and stickers in Cube is going to either involve going really hard on supporting these themes and having those cards be draftable, or doing a house rule where you provide some to players outside the draft
It has no Escape creatures, denying it the sets most powerful and easiest-to-use mechanic
