  "summary": "Magic: The Gathering has released its Star Trek set, marking the seventh set of the year for the trading card game. According to IGN, the release includes four Commander decks, bringing the yearly total for the game to 17 decks. Amazon has reduced the price of a bundle of these decks to $224.97, though IGN notes that Collector Editions, which feature the same cards in foil, cost over $100 each.\n\nPolygon describes the set as a tribute to the franchise, utilizing sagas to reference episodes such as “In the Pale Moonlight” and “The Inner Light.” The collection features legendary characters, spacecraft, and quotes like “Live long and prosper,” while also including references to \"silly, controversial, and downright terrible\" moments from the series.\n\nThe Federation Fleet deck is a Jeskai-colored hero deck featuring the commander Jean-Luc Picard, Luminary. IGN reports that this 2/4 commander allows players to draw cards by playing historic permanents, which can trigger the Seek Out mechanic to charge up a Spacecraft and add a counter to a target creature.",
