# Lychguard Lychguard represents the Warhammer 40K crossover's attempt to capture the aesthetic of Games Workshop's Necron faction within Magic's framework. As a rare from the Commander set, it appeals primarily to players building themed decks around the 40K universe rather than competitive formats. Collectors view this card through a niche lens: it's valuable mainly to dedicated Warhammer fans and Commander enthusiasts seeking complete set collections. The card's mechanical role is modest, making it less sought after for gameplay purposes. The nonfoil-only variant status limits collector options, which some view as a missed opportunity for premium versions. Its appeal remains largely thematic rather than driven by power level or broad demand.
