Ryperior74, the bit (of mine) that you quoted literally said that they were replacing the planeswalker decks.
So, yes, I do remember that.:)
If I read correctly, they are not planning to release 4-5 Commander decks, on their own, as the did between 2011-2020, next year.
I'm not wild about these and I think they're less good (from what I've seen) than the ZEN precons but, honestly, as someone who is feeling serious wallet strain from my Magic habit, I'm kind of glad that there aren't any Fierce Guardianships/Dockside Extortionists in these decks.
I do miss the old way of doing things, releasing 4/5 commanders, on their own, once a year; it was like Christmas for Commander players. But, yeah, I'm glad these'll only cost me 20 bucks or so, if I buy them at all.
All that said, again, I'd like to see them focus their Commander energy on making 4-5 really strong (and still affordable) Commander precons each year.
I do like that these replaced those jank-ass planeswalker decks, though.
EDIT: Also, I don't hate Wyleth.
