Archenemy

[articpenguin]

Quote:You are the archenemy, and your goal is simple: the utter decimation of your fellow Planeswalkers. A force of unbridled malevolence, your power is so immense that their only hope is to join forces in a desperate attempt to defeat you.

An Archenemy game follows a “one vs. many” format. In this exciting new multiplayer variant, an oversized deck packed with brutal scheme cards allows one player to assume the role of the archenemy, a merciless paragon of power bent on total domination.

The other players in the game must unite to defeat the archenemy and save the day—if they can.

Sounds fun to me

The whole spoiler is here. I also think Wizards has spoiled all the lists but they are not all on one page for easy browsing.

I will admit that I was looking forward to Archenemy as it seemed like a cool concept. The decks are pretty pathetic though, with the artifact one being the only one that seems decent. I will probably get it only for the rares for my EDH deck. The whole concept does not seem to be terribly well thought out in terms of preconstructed decks. That said I think that making a deck as the archenemy will be really broken as you can build a combo deck and pack the schemes you need to go off quicker. It could be a fun format when played in conjunction with EDH but I have not seen any agreement on how to convert Archenemy to EDH.
