MTG Duskmourn is set to release soon, featuring four preconstructed commander decks, including Jump Scare. Led by Zimone, Mystery Unraveler, this deck mainly focuses on manifesting and flipping cards face up through Landfall triggers. The name Jump Scare speaks for itself as Zimone will keep her opponents guessing on what card she's going to manifest and flip face up next.
The question now is, will Jump Scare be a strong preconstructed commander deck in MTG? Here is the full deck reveal.
MTG Jump Scare Commander Deck
MTG Duskmourn preconstructed commander decks will hit local game stores (LGS) on September 27, 2024. Each deck is expected to cost between $47 and $50, depending on the store.
For those interested in the Duskmourn precons, here's all the essential information about the upcoming Jump Scare deck.
Commander
Zimone, Mystery Unraveler
Zimone, Mystery Unraveler is a four-cost (two generic, one green, and one blue) legendary creature with Landfall. Whenever a land you control enters, manifest dread if this is the first time this ability has resolved this turn. Otherwise, you may turn a permanent you control face up. (To manifest dread, look at the top two cards of your library. Put one onto the battlefield face down as a 2/2 creature and the other into your graveyard. Turn it face up any time for its mana cost if it’s a creature card.)
Looking at the Jump Scare precon itself, players might want to throw in some upgrades to make the deck feel more complete. We suggest adding more permanent cards with face-up triggers to maximize Zimone's abilities.
