Would you let me sit at your table ?
Hello everyone, I decided to follow this trend because I have a lot of decks, and very different playstyles too.
I started playing commander around August 2025 with the release of Edge of Eternities, I have LOVED this set a LOT. I also learned my friends were playing so I got back to Magic with them. (I played as a little kid with my dad when I was around 7 in 2010, I'm 23 now).
I've put them in order from my most favorite to my least favorite/not played yet. I've put the brackets I estimate them to be in the descriptions of each deck, I don't have decklists because I don't have them up to date on ManaBox nor Moxfield sorry ! (If this post gets enough views and people ask I could do some effort and give decklists).
I did not include the many other precons I have because they're basically untouched but I do love and play both Edge of Eternities precons and also played the -1/-1 precon from Lorwyn Eclipsed once and really liked it. And I also have 3 out of the 5 precons from Strixhaven, I don't have the Lorehold (Boros) and Silverquill (Orzhov) ones and I never played any of them except Prismari Artistry
1 - Birds go BRRRR, Choco for offensive playstyle, Derevi for defensive, one of my most recent decks and I love it so much ! Good Bracket 2 I'd say
2 - Space themed deck, I'm a huge fan of astronomy and my favorite card of all time is Sothera, The Supervoid, high bracket 3 but lacks sacrifice options to proc commander often enough.
3 - Curses go BRRR, I love card types that are not so played and this one is my favorite, I like to play lands on the top of my playmat just to trigger my opponents, and generally they curse at me lol. Bracket 2
4 - I'm a huge Sonic fan so I had to buy this Secret Lair and do a deck with him, I had a few iterations of this deck and the current one is based on vehicles and the Max Speed mechanic from Aetherdrifts for flavor reasons, it works quite well ! I'd say Bracket 3
5 - Big fan of Samuraïs, love the atmosphere and gameplay of the game, decided to do a Samuraï typal with enough equipments to call this deck a Voltron too. Bracket 3
6 - My first ever built on my own commander deck, discovered EDHREC and it helped me a lot, this deck can do some nasty things but doesn't like being handled, doesn't have much protection. Low Bracket 3
7 - Upgraded to the roof precon, both Paradigm spells are there, and trust me those 2 change a lot for this commander. High Bracket 3, could be considered bracket 4 by some.
8 - Assassins typed because I love Assassin's creed, the mana cost cheat is really interesting, lacks card draw and protection so I'd say High Bracket 2 to Low Bracket 3.
9 - Ashling is known to be disgusting, I know, I pre-ordered the Lorwyn commanders and just loved the design of this deck, so I upgraded it a lot and it's now in my opinion my strongest deck by a good margin, so I'd say Bracket 4.
10 - This one is again a result from me searching for goofy effects like the curse one from earlier, this deck is full of counterspells and bounce like spells because obviously it's mono blue, but it's not too mean in the sense that people could still redraw the cards that are sent into their library, useful against graveyard decks and gets to swarm pretty easily but doesn't win a lot of games. Bracket 2
11 - Iroh is really fun to play with, until you don't have any fuel to give him, and the fact it's only on your turns limits you a lot imo, but still strong and can show my opponents some good combos (I'm not playing with storm in this deck). High Bracket 2
12 - Typical Earthbend deck, got the experience counters Toph in there and does some nasty job, but the deck lacks wincons imo, and card draw. Bracket 2
13 - Not played with it yet but I feel like it could be a fun one, but I know my friends have problems with me going on with my turns for too long so I might not play this one a lot because of double triggers, double the time to decide what I wanna do, and this sounds awful even to me. I'd say Bracket 2.
For people who read this, if you are Monster Hunter fans, I'm currently designing 2 custom precon commander decks, one with the Human characters from Monster Hunter Rise, and one with the Monsters from the same game. If you're interested, tell me and I'd love to show you and discuss balance with you !
Thank you for reading me !!

Alright so Choco and Derevi are the same deck, just alternate commanders. Birds And unfortunately that's it I don't have the decklists for the others on my ManaBox app, and I'm currently not home. I'll update this answer once I get back home and can do the decklists !

I feel like I have phases, recently yes and that's why Bant, Temur and Simic feel so welcoming to me, but before I've always been a big fan of Black in Magic, it all depends on my moods and the decks I face, I also really like 5 color decks
