New players will be thrust into the multiverse with minimal context, making a set like Foundations an essential entry point.

Since Foundations will remain in Standard for five years, you'll have ample time to master the intricacies of the game, like understanding what a stack is.

I've grabbed some sleeves myself, partly for a chance at Anime Borderless Bruvac, and partly because I can't resist reprint sets. At $5 per pack, which includes Shock Lands and cards with infinite combo potential, you don't need much justification to buy them.

If you're already building for Commander or just indulging in impulse buys, the Fallout Commander Deck – Science! is available for $33.99, a $26 discount off retail. This deck includes Dogmeat, Ever Loyal, one of the standout face Commanders from Universes Beyond, who can flood the board with Junk tokens when built around equipment and auras. It's an underrated engine, featuring cards like Radstorm and Feral Ghoul, which might sound like punk album titles but are surprisingly effective in gameplay.
