The bulk of the reveals are for Commander, a multiplayer format featuring 99-card decks gathered around a single leader. According to lead designer Annie Sardelis, these four Fallout decks were created with some very different playstyles in mind. Full reveals are planned for each decklist between now and the March 8 launch.
Sloppy survivors
Sloppy survivors is an aura and equipment heavy deck featuring fan favorites like Dogmeat, the DJ Three Dog, former astronaut Sofia Daguerre, and a cameo from companion Nick Valentine.
Science!
The Science! The face card of the deck is Dr. Madison Li. Expect this artifact-heavy deck to generate a lot of energy that can be used to power creatures or draw additional cards. It also includes a Saga map, a multi-step map style that will play a crucial role in bringing some of Fallout’s many quest lines to life.
Mutant danger
The Mutant danger deck is where you can find super mutants, ghosts and Fallout 76‘s cutest cryptid, Mothman. It also introduces a new wheel counter mechanism, which can help power certain residents of the wasteland.
Hail Caesar
finally, the Hail Caesar deck contains many militants from the world of Fallout. In addition to dealing damage, players will end up sacrificing many cards in this deck to power their endgame moves. Expect the Squad keyword, introduced with 2023’s Warhammer 40,000-inspired Commander decks, to reappear here.
Collector boosters
Finally, some highly sought after reprints will only appear in this set’s Collector Booster Packs. These include Ravages of War, which destroys every land on the table regardless of who brought it into play, and a unique take on the venerable Sol Ring.
