Two Innistrad: Midnight Hunt Commander decks were released together with Innistrad: Midnight Hunt.[2][3] These are meant to be on-ramps to Commander, with a few new cards and the rest reprints.
Description[ | ]
There are 30 new cards (with printed set code MIC and collector numbers #1/38 to #30/38) printed in the Innistrad: Midnight Hunt Commander Decks.[4] These cards are legal for play in the Commander, Vintage, and Legacy formats. They aren't legal for play in the Standard, Pioneer, or Modern formats. Eight additional cards with the MIC code (#31/38 to #38/38) can only be found in the Set and Collector Boosters. MIC #39-76 are extended-art versions of the previous cards.[5] The other cards in these decks (with printed set code MIC and collector numbers #077-187) are legal for play in any format that already allows those cards; that is, appearing in these decks doesn't change a card's legality in any format.
The new cards are themed to the world and the reprints can be from anywhere. Angel of Glory's Rise is the only reprint with new art.
Contents[ | ]
Each package contains:
- 1 Display Commander card
- 2 foil Legendary cards
- 98 regular cards
- 10 double-sided tokens
- 1 Life Wheel
Cycles and additional cards[ | ]
Eight additional cards with the MIC code (#31/38 to #38/38) can only be found in the Set and Collector Boosters. They aren't found in the Innistrad: Midnight Hunt Commander decks.[6] Five of these form the Visions cycle, while a sixth rare completes the Curses "cycle"[7] of the main set.
| Cycle name | 
|
|
|
|
|
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Visions | Visions of Glory | Visions of Duplicity | Visions of Dread | Visions of Ruin | Visions of Dominance |
Five rare sorceries with a Flashback cost of  MM which costs  less, where X is the mana value of commanders you control.
| |||||
| Curses | Curse of Conformity | Curse of Unbinding | Curse of the Restless Dead | Curse of Obsession | Curse of Clinging Webs |
| Five rare Curses, four of which are part of the decks while Curse of Obsession completes the cycle. Each incentivizes you to (in certain cases) target yourself. | |||||
The last two additional cards are both mythic: Avacyn's Memorial and Lynde, Cheerful Tormentor.[6]

Coven Counters[ | ]
| “ | Bring together a myriad of humans and throw a festival for your coven! As the Harvesttide Sovereign, Leinore has the ability to gift your creatures +1/+1 counters as you see fit. Use this ability to turn on coven for Leinore and her guests so you can reap those bounties turn after turn. While Leinore’s coven provides card draw, Human buffs will ensure that coven remains active long into the night. As hope grows among your revelers, watch it fade from your opponent’s eyes. | ” |
