You know the type. Their sleeves are colour-matched, their playmat is custom and they own more dice than a casino. Buying for a Magic: The Gathering® Commander player who "has everything" feels impossible. But even the most kitted-out players have gaps, and they're usually in the same places.
The gap almost every Commander player has: decent deck boxes for every deck
Most Commander players have one or two beautiful deck boxes for their favourite decks, and the rest of their collection lives in whatever they had lying around: old cardboard precon boxes, elastic bands, a random fabric pouch. The more decks they build, the worse it gets. (We've written about exactly this in how to store multiple MTG Commander decks.)
That's the gift. A matching set of SquadPod Slim deck boxes, one per deck, turns a messy shelf into a tidy row where every deck is labelled by its own commander.
Why SquadPod Slim works for the player who has it all
Their commander goes on show
Each box has a front display window with a rigid toploader, so the commander card becomes the label. For someone who's proud of their decks, that's a big deal.
It's slim, so it doesn't add clutter
At just 50 mm deep, SquadPod Slim takes up far less shelf and bag space than a typical 100-card box. Players who "have everything" usually have a space problem too.
It's rugged
Unlike fabric pouches, SquadPod Slim is a rigid case with a hinged, click-shut lid. It protects sleeved cards from being bent or crushed in a bag. See our fabric vs hard deck box comparison.
Colour-code the collection
Five colourways mean they can match boxes to decks: Field (olive and brown) for green decks, Bone (black and sand) for black, Frost (baby blue and sand) for blue, Blossom (pink and white) for something fun, and Harbour (navy and white) as the all-rounder.
Other ideas for the MTG player who has everything
- A night out: a gift card or entry fee for a Commander event at their local game store.
- A travel upgrade: if they travel to events, a slim kit makes life easier. See the best slim MTG deck boxes for travel.
- Display: if they also paint miniatures, a WarSplay display stand for their painted models is a crossover win.
- Time: offer to host game night. Seriously. Commander is a four-player game and getting a table together is half the battle.
