Wizard Commander Decks
After Humans, the biggest tribe in the game — and the only large one that plays like a spellslinger deck rather than a creature deck. Wizards care about instants and sorceries more than about combat.

Commanders that care about wizards
Legendary wizards whose rules text actually names the creature type — these reward building around the tribe, rather than just belonging to it. Ordered by current market price, which is the closest thing to a popularity signal we can honestly compute.

The wizard support package
Cards that are not wizards themselves but name them in their rules text — the lords, anthems, tutors and payoffs that turn a pile of creatures into a deck. 90 of them are legal in Commander.
Where wizards live
Color identity of every legal wizard in the format. This is what decides your commander's colors before you pick a single card.
Under a dollar
