Magic: The Gathering’s next set takes us back to its home, with Dominaria United revisiting a world full of deep lore cuts, returning faces, and an entire army of Phyrexian sleeper agents getting ready to tear it all down. It’s also the first time we’ve revisited Dominaria since Commander preconstructed decks started being bundled in with every set, with two precons offering powerful exclusives designed specifically for the format.

The first of these decks is humorously titled Painbow, commanded by none other than Dominarian legend, Jared Carthalion. This is a five-colour-matters deck that runs all five colours, an oddity for preconstructed decks. Balancing WUBRG can be a difficult task, but this deck includes ten exclusives ready to help you harness all the colours of Magic.
As with all Commander decks, Painbow features 100 cards, including lands and the commander itself, Jared Carthalion. It features some interesting reprints, including a staple that’s rarely included in precons with Path to Exile, and plenty of great legendary creatures like Illuna, Nethroi, Archelos, and Selvala.
Shockingly, this deck doesn’t include a staple that Wizards has included in every other preconstructed deck: Sol Ring. This is likely because this deck cares about all five colours of mana, and having an artifact that can only produce colourless doesn’t help much. Instead, we have plenty of other mana rocks like Arcane Signet, Fellwar Stone, and Prophetic Prism.
