Are premade Commander decks worth it?
These cards generally take two to three years to really get going, but they can end up being worth $20+ if you’re patient.

Does your Commander count as a card in your deck?
The commander itself does not count as part of the deck. When you are playing EDH your Commander is technically off the board when it is in the command zone.

Can Commander deck cards be used in standard?

Any stranger to the Commander format will laugh when you tell them you’re finding it hard to make cuts in a 100 card deck. While an EDH deck does have a bunch more slots than a regular constructed deck, you don’t actually have that many slots to explore the theme or strategy you’ve chosen.
