We know - we've been a bit slack about getting Commander spoilers 'n' previews to you lot (we've read your eMails) - so to correct this, here is MTG Realm's Commander Spoiler list which we will endeavour to keep up to date for you. We will caution you to rely solely upon the official previews from the mother ship (linky here) as there may be translation / transcription errors.
