Magic: The Gathering - Spider-Man's Peter Parker//Amazing Spider-Man Commander Deck Guide

In Magic: The Gathering's Spider-Man set, nearly every character that picked up the Spider-Man mantle is included. Of the many, the most well-known and popular one gets to shine as a Bant (green/white/blue) commander, Peter Parker // Amazing Spider-Man. The front side depicts Peter getting his iconic spider bite, with the backside in his superhero persona.

Mechanically, Amazing Spider-Man is built around legendary spells and the web-slinging mechanic. New to the Spider-Man set, web-slinging lets you cast a spell at a discount if you return a tapped creature to your hand. If you like casting big spells at a steep discount, Amazing Spider-Man is a great choice for a commander.

Key Cards

Peter Parker // Amazing Spider-Man

The Peter Park side is uneventful, and you want to transform Peter Parker as quickly as possible. Once flipped, you can start casting your legendary spells for just three mana. Amazing Spider-Man has decent stats and keyword abilities, but you don't want to attack with it all the time due to how much mana you need to transform.

Mana Dorks

A mana dork is a creature that taps itself to add mana. These are important pieces to any deck as they help you accelerate your mana generation early, something that is vital to Commander. With Amazing Spider-Man, they play a key role in paying for the web-slinging cost.

The idea with mana dorks is that you tap them to add the mana they generate, and then return them to your hand to pay for web-slinging​​​​​. Mana dorks generally only cost one mana, so recasting them is trivial to do. By doing this, you don't fall behind on the battlefield and can reuse them for web-slinging again next turn.

Heroes' Podium

Nearly every creature in an Amazing Spider-Man deck is going to be legendary, making Heroes' Podium one of the best support cards in the deck. Heroes' Podium makes it so that every legendary creature boosts each other, allowing them to get massive stat boosts.

The Sixth Doctor

The Sixth Doctor is a valuable permanent to have on the battlefield, as it will copy the first historic spell you cast each turn. Historic includes legendary permanents (as well as artifacts), so The Sixth Doctor can copy just about every spell you cast in your deck.

Even if you cast a spell for its spell-slinging cost, it is still considered to be cast, so The Sixth Doctor will copy them upon cast. Normally, The Sixth Doctor costs a bit of mana to cast, but with Amazing Spider-Man, you can get The Sixth Doctor down on the battlefield for only three mana, letting you take advantage of its effect during the early stages of the game.

How To Play The Deck

General Game Plan

A Peter Park // Amazing Spider-Man Commander deck is all about casting a ton of legendary spells at a steep discount by using Amazing Spider-Man's ability to give all your legendary spells web-slinging​​​​​​. This allows you to cheat ahead of your mana curve, only paying three mana for spells that normally cost far more.

Win Condition And Flaws

The primary win condition of the deck is winning through combat. Most of the deck consists of creatures, and you will be flooding the battlefield with great creatures by casting multiple a turn with web-slinging. Many permanents boosts the stats of your legendary creatures, such as Crystalized Serah and Heroes' Podium, making the combat victory even easier to achieve.

The biggest flaw of the deck is its reliance on web-slinging. A natural downside of decks that utilize big mana creatures is that if the ways to cheat around their mana cost aren't on the battlefield, the big spells will stay stuck in your hand. Extra mana rocks and mana dorks in the decklist help to accelerate mana quicker, but ultimately, Amazing Spider-Man is what makes the deck shine, and what it needs to rely on.
