The latest Magic: The Gathering expansion doesn’t include any pre-made Commander decks, but there are still plenty of Spider-Man cards seemingly designed for the format. Spider-Man himself (the “Amazing” version) makes it possible to cheat out expensive cards thanks to Magic’s new web-slinging mechanic, while Norman Osborn/Green Goblin does some devilishly fun things with your graveyard. There’s even a pretty cool Spider-Ham card with some obvious synergies based on creature types. However, my favorite new commander out of the roughly 80 or so options is a Spider-Man character I’ve never heard of before — and that’s exactly why I like it.

This post offers an interesting take on the Spider-Man commander for MTG fans who prefer to stick to the traditional lore. It’s great to see discussions around alternative options within the game, especially for those who may not be fans of Universes Beyond. Looking forward to more insights!
