# Commander 2016 Commander 2016 arrived as Wizards of the Coast's fourth dedicated release for the multiplayer format, introducing 300 new cards across five thematic decks. Released in November 2016, the set marked a significant shift in supplemental product design by emphasizing partner mechanics, allowing players to select two legendary creatures as commanders instead of one. This mechanic fundamentally altered deck construction possibilities and competitive viability within the format. The set produced several format staples. Atraxa, Praetors' Voice became the definitive commander for superfriends and infect strategies, while the partner pair Tymna the Weaver and Thrasios, Triton Hero established themselves as top-tier choices for competitive play. Burgeoning provided green ramp decks with efficient acceleration. Breath of Fury enabled aggressive strategies previously unavailable to certain color combinations. These cards demonstrated the set's influence on competitive Commander metagames for years following release, establishing Commander 2016 as a consequential supplemental product.
A great Magic catalog page needs to explain finish splits, print treatments, and why the set still matters across formats.
