Magic: The Gathering | Star Trek Commander Decklists Are Complete: Which of the Four Decks Should UK Players Choose?

Star Trek Commander buyers can finally choose between four complete lists. Wizards’ October 29 update includes Federation Fleet, Landing Party, Klingon Fury and We Are the Borg, ahead of their November 13 release^[1]. The decision has moved beyond whether to order the first revealed deck. Choose Klingon Fury for aggressive multiplayer combat, Landing Party for a land-driven engine, Federation Fleet for creatures and Spacecraft, or Borg for artifact creatures and assimilation. For an undecided player who enjoys attacking, Klingon Fury also has the lowest buyable standard-deck item price in today’s comparison.

Prices above use positive GBP quotes marked in stock or pre-order, before delivery. A dash means no qualifying offer. The strategies come from Wizards’ deck descriptions and published lists; prices come from the Boostermage snapshot^[1][3]. Match the deck to what you want to do over several evenings, then compare the delivered cost. Saving money on a strategy you will rarely play is a poor economy.

Klingon Fury: the clearest choice for players who want to attack

Worf, Defiant Commander leads the red-white-black deck. Wizards describes its battlefront plan as keeping cards flowing while reducing opponents’ life totals; alternative commander Kor, Cause of Vengeance lets you sacrifice creatures to strengthen Klingons and Warriors. The published list includes Shared Animosity, Combat Celebrant, Disrupt Decorum and World at War^[1]. These are concrete reasons to inspect this deck if combat is your favourite part of Commander, rather than choosing it solely because Worf is on the box.

Our recommendation is Klingon Fury for a buyer who wants an assertive deck and is happy to commit creatures to combat. Read Worf alongside those support cards before paying: the attraction is the sequence of building a force and turning it into attacks. Someone who prefers to spend several turns developing resources away from combat should examine Landing Party first. Familiarity with the characters cannot substitute for enjoying the actions the deck repeatedly asks you to take.

Its current buyable floor is £49.95. Landing Party costs £20.05 more at its own buyable floor. That difference gives an undecided combat player a practical reason to start with Klingon Fury. A player who actively wants Spock’s land engine should still choose that engine: the saving does not make the two decks interchangeable. Check delivery charges before deciding how much of the item-price gap survives.

Landing Party: pay for the engine you will enjoy building

Commander Spock rewards the number of differently named lands you control with card draw and free spells, according to Wizards’ overview. The green-white-blue list includes Exploration, Ancient Greenwarden, Lotus Cobra, Scute Swarm and Tireless Tracker, alongside land-search spells such as Cultivate, Farseek and Nature’s Lore^[1]. This is the strongest thematic fit of the four for someone whose preferred Commander game revolves around developing lands and collecting advantages from that development.

The completed list also makes the mana base part of the buying decision. Inspect the named lands and the spells that find lands together, rather than looking only at the commander. Spock’s stated reward asks you to care about names, which gives those slots a particular purpose. If that planning appeals, Landing Party offers a clearer reason to spend £70.00 than an assumption that every green deck will play alike. Existing land-deck owners should check for cards they already own before treating the reprint selection as additional value.

Captain Kirk, Boldly Going is the alternative commander, with Wizards highlighting his connection to keeping the Starship Enterprise ready for action^[1]. That gives a prospective owner another commander to read before ordering. Choose the deck because at least one of its supported plans appeals in the supplied list; any substantial rebuild deserves a separate budget after you have played the original.

Federation or Borg: two different reasons to want artifacts

Federation Fleet is blue-red-white. Jean-Luc Picard, Luminary strengthens creatures and charges Spacecraft artifacts, while Captain Janeway, Endgame offers a more aggressive route involving Officer tokens. The list contains Supreme Verdict, Fractured Identity, Alhammarret’s Archive and several named Federation ships^[1]. Pick this deck if the combination of crew and ships is the experience you want. Its buyable floor of £70.00 should be judged against that specific appeal.

We Are the Borg uses white-blue-black instead. The Borg Queen strengthens artifact creatures and takes creatures from opponents’ graveyards, turning them into Borg; Locutus of Borg supplies another way to expand the force. Skullclamp, Unwinding Clock, Forsaken Monument and Academy Ruins appear in the completed list^[1]. Choose Borg if building an artifact force and using opponents’ fallen creatures sounds more engaging than commanding Federation ships. Both decks involve artifacts, but the official descriptions point to different activities at the table.

At £70.00, Borg remains a specific purchase for that play pattern. The earlier Borg-only reveal no longer gives it an information advantage: all four lists are available. Compare the commanders and support cards side by side. Buyers who already own an artifact deck should ask whether assimilation adds the experience they want; buyers assembling their first Commander collection can concentrate on which complete package they would most like to bring to a game.

Across tracked Star Trek Commander products, including premium editions and deck-set rows, 8 products have listings. There are 38 listing rows from 7 retailers: 0 in stock, 12 pre-order and 26 out of stock. Of the four standard individual decks, 4 have a qualifying buyable offer^[3]. These counts describe listing statuses, rather than shop inventory quantities. Read the table’s availability labels alongside its prices, particularly where an unavailable quote remains visible.

Read the reprints as cards you want to own

Complete lists let buyers check overlap with their collections before ordering. Start with the commander, then inspect the cards that make its plan work, and finally identify useful cards you already own. A recognisable reprint is most relevant when you want to play it. None of the price comparisons here assigns a resale valuation to the contents, so there is no measured singles-value winner to override your preferred strategy. Buying the deck you want to keep is a decision you can make from the published contents today.

For most players, the standard edition is the sensible starting point. Wizards confirms that Collector’s Editions contain the same ready-to-play deck with surge foil cards, while standard decks have a traditional foil face commander and 99 non-foil cards^[1]. Choose the crew and strategy first. A Collector’s Edition purchase then becomes a separate decision about finish, with its own delivered price, rather than a way to obtain a different selection of playable cards.

What changes before November 13

Google Trends data for Great Britain over the past three months, recorded on October 30, includes both “mtg star trek commander decks” and “star trek mtg commander deck list” among related queries for “mtg commander deck”^[4]. That is a direct sign of interest in choosing and inspecting these products. The completed lists now give those buyers a useful comparison: they can select a strategy rather than reserve a deck whose contents remain unknown.

With November 13 confirmed for release^[1][2], the remaining checks are commercial ones. Confirm that an offer names the individual deck and edition you chose, add delivery, and read the expected dispatch terms. Use the internal product pages to compare refreshed listings. If a favourite deck has no buyable offer when you check, watch that deck rather than replacing it with an edition or strategy you do not want. If several appeal equally, the lowest delivered standard-deck price is a reasonable deciding factor.

Our choice for a price-conscious attacking player is standard Klingon Fury. Choose Landing Party instead if land development is the attraction; choose Federation Fleet for Picard’s crew-and-Spacecraft plan; choose Borg for artifact creatures and graveyard assimilation. All four can now be assessed on their actual contents. That makes this a good moment to commit to a preferred deck, provided the current offer and preorder terms suit you, without budgeting for speculative upgrades or a premium finish first.
