The Commander Nexus is on the way
Live stream Q&A with the founders this Tuesday at 1pm EST
Commander players are the ultimate casual Magic player for game stores.
Having a thriving and vibrant Commander community is a huge asset since Commander players often spend the most money on the hobby and buy all sorts of cards that conventional Standard or Modern players wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole, and are happy paying for them!
The more Commander players you can create and attract the better, but there are some barriers to organizing events for this particular community of Magic players.
As an event type, Commander is usually as casual as it gets, so traditional event organization doesn't really make much sense.
Commander players aren't playing for the competition, or even the prizes most of the time.
They're there for the fun and friendly atmosphere and to live out their Timmy/Johnny dreams of hilarious situations and ridiculously improbable combos.
Traditional tournament organization doesn't really fit the bill.
The second issue is some people find it awkward to show up to a store for the first time and ask a bunch of strangers if they can join their game.
Social anxiety is a real thing, and it can keep potential Commander players from ever giving it a shot.
So what should you do?
Commander Nexus is a platform being explicitly designed to facilitate Magic's most popular casual format and make it easier than ever for game store's to build a thriving community of Commander players.
Tune in live to find out:

Tom
