Magic: The Gathering’s Marvel Super Heroes is absolutely packed with cards that could be your Commander, and while your mind may instantly think of the likes of Iron Man, Incredible Hulk, or any other iconic superhero, it’s Molecule Man that you should be wary of coming up against.
Molecule Man’s card is a six-cost, colorless creature with 5/5 that gives nonland cards in your hand a miracle cost of zero. The character first appeared in Marvel Comics in Fantastic Four #20. Despite the fairly goofy name, the character (real name Owen Reece) is very powerful given he’s able to manipulate molecules of just about anything.
Miracle is a tricky mechanic in Magic, but as long as a card is the first card drawn on any given turn, you can cast it for its miracle cost. Because Molecule Man’s miracle cost is zero, that means every single turn, you can play the first card you draw for absolutely free — and that applies during your opponents’ turns as well, provided you have a way to draw a card. That alone makes the mechanic hugely explosive, especially if your deck is full of other cards with high mana costs. The one major drawback with Molecule Man, however, is that with him as a Commander, your deck is limited to colorless cards. Don’t let that stop you, though.
By pairing Molecule Man with Sensei’s Divining Top, you have a Commander combo that’s more powerful than anything Doctor Doom, Thanos, or any other supervillain could concoct.
