Commander sucks, right? It’s impossible to balance, you have to sit through long turns, sometimes it feels like you didn’t even get to play.

Yes, as much as we love the format (we promise) there are definitely some inherent flaws in our favorite way to play. But what are they and how can we mitigate them to still have a good time even when game night doesn’t go as planned? There’s a lot to talk about, so let’s dive in and start complaining about Commander!
