STOP MAKING INK-TRENDER COMMANDERS! RGWU for definition. we already got omnath, locus of creation, Aragorn, the uniter, and Kynaios and Tiro of Meletis, now we do need 4 color legends made but we need love for the other 4-color combos besides RGWU, which is yore-tiller WUBR, glint-eye UBRG, dune-brood BRGW, and witch-maw GWUB (we do have 2 witch-maw legends but it’s the same character with different abilties)
away the 14th doctor, looks like we got “Doctor” tribal legend and the perfect commander for Gallifrey Stands (ps clearly changelings are gonna be in the deck as well)
Rose noble: clearly a auto include for are 14th doctor and changeling tribal decks with morophon, the boundless
Toy maker: ok that’s the weirdest commander I have ever seen I think we got fact or fiction tribal
Calling the last two cards for this lair to either be Fifteen and his companion Ruby... or the Saga for the episode on Sunday and another card.
Likely Fifteen as Gavin said they had plans for Fifteen and Fourteen to get cards.

What, so because WotC has already made more RGWU legends, you think they shouldn't print a Doctor Who card that lets us play with all the Doctors in the same deck? That's a silly thing to say.
"Hey Wizards, you shouldn't be doing more of X unless you've done more of Y!"
They've made it quite well known that 4-color cards are very challenging to design from both a mechanical and flavor standpoint, so you should be grateful that you're getting more of them at all.
The problem with defining this format by what is "fun" is that everyone seems to define fun as what they don't lose to. If you keep losing to easily answered cards, that means you should improve your deck. If you don't want to improve your deck, then you should come to peace with the idea that you are going to lose because you chose to not interact with better strategies.

As Ryperior pointed out, there are other 4 color combinations it could have been with a companion that gives the 5th. actually I think the case for Rose being Green is at least as strong as for her being Blue, so a WUBR Doctor, which by the end of 10's run, there was definitely Black in the character.

Project Booster Fun makes it less fun to open a booster.

The thing is that it logically makes very little sense to make The Fourteenth Doctor anything other than RGWU, since the first thirteen Doctors are all in those colors. Yeah sure, players could add a doctor's companion to fill in the missing color if he was different colors, but why should their companion options be restricted in order to incorporate all the Doctors into their deck? This color combination allows players to play The Fourteenth Doctor with basically any companion while still getting to play all the cards in the precons with Doctor synergies, and also retaining their ability to add black through Clara Oswald or Vislor Turlough if they wish.
But instead, you want to sacrifice that convenience and accessibility and have him be different colors because... we don't have enough commanders in the other 4-color combinations? I guarantee you that players would have been way more upset if The Fourteenth Doctor couldn't naturally include all the other Doctors without being shoehorned into playing a companion to unlock a huge chunk of the WHO cards.
"But Foam-Dome," you may be thinking, "aren't they shoehorning us into using one of only two companions in order to play 5 color?"
Yes, they are. But playing black in a Fourteenth Doctor deck is an option that is entirely unnecessary. Many players who want to build Fourteenth Doctor are going to want to include the previous thirteen, and black is the only color that they don't NEED in order to do that. On the other hand, having black is a largely useless color for the purpose of playing all the Doctors, so I imagine it would mostly lead to player frustration.

good news is we can use Clara Oswald or Vislor Turlough to add B to the deck (makes it 5-color)

here’s the cards that work (couple of false positives)
question is does coin flips count as guessing? If yes then all of these is a option
Tough call if R is missing since there’s a quite a bit of pile, guessing, choosing in red cards. (Especially coin-flipping if that counts as guessing)

one by default is fifteen gavin mentioned that on the first look that he has a plan to give us a 14th and 15th doctor card.
the other one should be either the companion of 15th or a saga of a episode.
