The goal of the deck is to utilize a value commander for easy access to either draw or ramp effects for quick token buildup. Then the hunting begins utilizing threat assessment to swallow your unsuspecting prey with anthem effects. Beorn is the main commander that utilizes card draw and a built in bears tribal anthem to run over the game in a few turns of him being out. Bilbo is the alternate commander, present in most commander precon, that utilizes the generation of foods as a free ramp value with treasures. As alternate art most cards could follow a commander precon for the hobbit especially heroic feast, Rampaging Baloths (siege beasts in LOTR), and throne of eldraine enchantments.
