Gameplay Insights

  • 1

    Anje’s ability to repeatedly activate her discard effect enabled fast deck cycling and combo assembly, culminating in a decisive infinite mana loop with Worldgorger Dragon.

  • 2

    Burning Inquiry early in the game created chaotic random discards that disrupted opponents’ key cards, notably forcing Ulamog to be shuffled back into the deck, hindering recovery.

  • 3

    Uro’s deck maximized incremental advantage by repeatedly casting its commander and ramping aggressively with artifacts and enchantments, making it a formidable value engine.

  • 4

    Teferi’s player prioritized setting up tutors and card draw to find key combo pieces while remaining cautious about life loss and ramp timing with Gemstone Caverns.

  • 5

    Timing of interaction spells such as Mental Misstep and counterspells was critical to disrupting opponents’ early plays without overcommitting.

  • 6

Summary

The game featured four competitive cEDH decks, each piloted by experienced players. Early turns showed typical ramp and setup plays, with Vadrok’s player aiming for a High Tide combo, Anje filtering through madness mechanics to find critical pieces, Uro capitalizing on incremental value and life gain, and Teferi focusing on card advantage and combo potential through The Chain Veil. A key turning point came when Anje’s pilot successfully assembled a classic Worldgorger Dragon combo to generate infinite mana and subsequently cast Avacyn’s Judgment, wiping out all opponents and securing a swift victory. This memorable finishing sequence demonstrated the power of Anje’s filtering and combo potential in a cEDH environment. Following the quick conclusion, the players restarted to showcase more of the other decks' capabilities. The second game began with robust mana acceleration from Uro’s deck, leveraging artifacts and enchantments like Chrome Mox, Wild Growth, and Carpet of Flowers to rapidly ramp, while Baal’s Teferi deck utilized Gemstone Caverns and tutoring spells to set up. Anje’s deck again demonstrated strong filtering and discard synergy, with multiple activations of Anje Falkenrath to cycle through madness cards. Meanwhile, the Vadrok deck aimed to build towards High Tide interactions but faced pressure from the other decks. The evolving board state highlighted the strategic depth of each deck’s unique game plan and the importance of interaction and timing in cEDH play.
