MTG's Fantastic Four Commander Deck Features Expensive Doctor Who Card Reprints
Magic: The Gathering's upcoming Marvel Super Heroes set includes a Fantastic Four-themed Commander deck that reprints several cards from the 2023 Doctor Who Commander decks, including the expensive Quantum Misalignment. Quantum Misalignment is a five-mana blue sorcery with Rebound that creates copies of legendary creatures while bypassing the legendary rule, making it highly sought after in competitive Commander formats. The reprints are notable both mechanically and thematically, with Quantum Misalignment featuring Fantastic Four-specific artwork depicting The Thing facing an alternate reality version of himself.
Wizards of the Coast revealed the complete decklist for the Fantastic Four Commander deck in the Marvel Super Heroes set, which includes reprints of several cards originally from Doctor Who Commander decks released in 2023. The most notable reprint is Quantum Misalignment, a mono-blue sorcery that costs five mana and creates a copy of a target creature you control that isn't legendary, with Rebound allowing it to be cast again the following turn. This card is particularly valuable because it can copy legendary creatures twice while circumventing the legendary rule, triggering enter-the-battlefield effects multiple times, and currently appears in over 9,000 Commander decks according to EDHREC data. The Fantastic Four deck is an Ink-Treader colored deck (red-green-white-blue) focused on casting noncreature spells, containing 43 such spells with various effects. Beyond Quantum Misalignment, the deck also reprints Into the Time Vortex, another five-cost Doctor Who card with Cascade and Rebound mechanics, demonstrating a thoughtful integration of Doctor Who cards into the Marvel-themed Commander product.
What's missing
The article does not specify the original retail price of Quantum Misalignment in the Doctor Who decks or its current secondary market value, making it unclear why this reprint is considered 'expensive' relative to other Magic cards. Additionally, there is no information about whether these reprints will help reduce the secondary market price of the original Doctor Who cards.
