Wayfarer — Arcavios: School's Out Forever [Complete 1.0] || Magic: The Gathering Cooperative Commander Variant

Description
What is Wayfarer, you might ask? In early April of 2021, several friends came together and asked the question: why does Magic: The Gathering not have a way to play in a more cooperative, fun-filled, enjoyable experience akin to Dungeons & Dragons? Where are the creative outlets for writing epic tales of loss and love, and the ability to join your friends in navigating through the worlds they’ve come to love through the game’s cards? Simply put, Magic is entirely based around competition, and beyond that, we thought there was room for growth. Thus, a new avenue opened itself; what if we could craft a format where the goal was to enjoy a story together, while playing the same game?

Wayfarer is a cooperative Commander-adjacent format with a total of up to four players, with at least one scrivener (game master) and up to three wayfarers (players). The scrivener gathers all the Scene cards and puts together the scrivener deck (a list of usually consisting of commons and uncommons, for price reasons) with our specific scenario cards added to give it that infused oomph. A separate Spoils deck (full of Items!) is alongside the Scene deck (where the story puzzles are) and you’re good to go.

For players, they’ll first decide on their choice of any of their preconstructed Commander decks available to them from their collection. We decided on this being the easiest way into the format, as anyone can pick up a Commander deck that Wizards of the Coast has created, and immediately get into a game of Wayfarer. Of course, if you want to play with any other deck, we won’t stop you, but the format as a whole is tuned for the preconstructed decks first and foremost. Second, players choose a Spark Emblem from a list, further enhancing their deck’s strategy as they will upgrade it in power after every game. As such, each campaign starts at Tier 1, and ends at Tier 5. Think of them as levels to your characters!

I love the idea and I am trying out the format with my friends right now.
Sadly the Booster Pack Generator seems broken. When I try to red a commander, it says "Expected String Argument to JSON.decode() but got HTML".
