Commander is, in my opinion, the best format of Magic the Gathering. For years, a regular group of my friends and I have gotten together to play. From the beginning, we realized key issues with having large multiplayer group games. Primarily, the amount of time a 5+ person game takes, the politics and harsh feelings when people are targeted or taken out of the game, and the lack of interaction the game can have when Johnny's affinity deck goes off and everyone sits there while they play with themselves. To this end, we've spent several years creating and refining the format we've dubbed Kingslayer.

Kingslayer Commander is not a new concept. It has similar rules to"role discovery" games that have been released over the years. Furthermore, we have not been the only ones to play this type of group variant. Despite this, we think our version to be special, and wanted a place to share our version with the wider MtG Commander community.
