About Commander Party


Commander Party is a one-day event where players are immersed in a story—their in-game choices affect the whole event, and the story affects their individual games.


These events are a great opportunity for players that are new to your store to participate in a casual in-store event and get absorbed in the world of Magic. For The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth™, we have expanded this program to all stores in the WPN.


Scheduling: 1 event between July 21 – 23; use the Commander Party scheduling template

Format: Commander

Rules Enforcement Level: Casual

Pairing Method: Player-List Only

Promo Support:

  • Participation promos provided to participants while supplies last.
  • Faction Cards that will be used during game play.
  • Welcome Boosters
  • Promos will be included with your The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth™ seasonal promo kit.
  • Metrics Information


    Metrics will be reactivated with at least 6 months' notice. At this point in time, we do not have a current anticipated date for metrics reactivation. Until the end of the grace period, promo and product allocations will be based on live metrics or the Q1 2020 metric snapshot, whichever is higher. 


    As always, all Magic: The Gathering events reported through Wizards EventLink will count towards play metrics: Tickets, Engaged Players, and Activated Players.
