Hobbit Precon - Taxing Diplomacy (The Master of Lake-town)
deck The Master of Lake-town
Aug 11, 2026
Hard for your opponents to beat you if they don't have any cards. The Master of Lake-town acts as the primary commander and this mono-black precon is all about milling cards and getting those cards either into your hand or onto the battlefield. It fits into the normal realm of a precon as it is bracket two with a lot of room to grow with upgrades. It would also allow the upgrader to choose whether to focus on milling actions and maybe upgrade with Rad cards and the like, or focus more on recursion. It would include nice reprints of Altar of Dementia and Maze of Ith. In the fantasy world of a precon, cards like Syr Konrad and Ayara might have been reskinned while other cards like Dockside Chef and Crypt Rats would just need new art. The secondary commander, which should be a reskin of Syr Konrad, could be Gollum, Riddle Master, as if a Commander from this set is needed, as it still controls, in a way, how your opponents are casting spells.
