MTG Treachery · the hidden-role Commander variant
Treachery is a multiplayer Commander mode with secret identities. Guard the Leader, hunt them down, or outlast everyone, and nobody knows whose side you're on until you unveil.
Before the first land drop, each player is dealt a hidden role. Only the Leader starts face up.
Every identity has an unveil cost and an effect that can turn the game. Pay it when it hurts most.
Who is protecting the Leader, and who is waiting to stab them? Make deals, bluff, and read the table.
Any Commander deck works. Four to twelve players, no extra cards to buy if you print at home.
Leader team
Survive. Your team wins once every Assassin and Traitor has left the game.
Leader team
Keep the Leader alive until every Assassin and Traitor is gone. If all Leaders fall, you lose too.
Assassin team
Your team wins when all Leaders have lost and at least one Assassin is still in the game.
A team of one
Be the last player standing. You must outlast everyone, other Traitors included, so the Assassins have to fall before the Leader does.
