Commander Precon Tier List
Playgroup.gg ranks 66 preconstructed Commander decks by win rate across 11,179 tracked games played with the stock decklist, straight out of the box with no upgrades. Real gameplay data, not deck registrations or opinion.
As of August 2026, the strongest out-of-the-box Commander precons by win rate are Planeswalker Party (40.52%), Blame Game (36.88%), and Eldrazi Unbound (33.4%), from 11,179 tracked stock games.
Precons are ranked by win rate across games played with the stock, unmodified decklist. A deck counts as stock when its non-basic card list exactly matches the precon, so basic-land swaps and printing differences are ignored. Win rates are normalized to a 4-player baseline (25% expected) so games with different pod sizes are weighted fairly. A precon needs at least 20 tracked stock games from at least 10 distinct registered pilots to qualify, so a single playgroup cannot dominate the ranking. Most precons land at or below the 25% line, exactly what you would expect from an out-of-the-box deck, so the higher tiers mark the precons that overperform before any upgrades. Data comes from games tracked through the Playgroup.gg app and online games played with Playgroup Live.
The 11,179 stock-decklist games behind this ranking are a filtered slice of Playgroup's 630,000+ recorded Commander games overall.
