Commander preconstructed decks are one of the most popular Magic products, releasing multiple times per year with each new set. Each precon contains exclusive new cards that cannot be found in the accompanying booster set, and these exclusive printings often hold significant value. Scanning an entire Commander precon is the fastest way to catalog what you have and identify which cards are worth protecting or trading. Lotus Scan makes it easy to process a full 100-card deck quickly, correctly identifying precon-exclusive printings and their current market prices.
