Deck & Commander Strategies
Tormod/Kodama
This deck aims to leverage landfall triggers and graveyard strategies, with an infinite combo involving Kodama and a bounce land.
Daretti, Scrap Savant
The Daretti deck plays around artifact synergies, aiming to build up a substantial board presence with artifacts and eventually find an infinite combo.
Marchesa, the Black Rose
Marchesa's deck is built around her ability, using sacrifice outlets and ways to put +1/+1 counters on creatures to constantly get them back on the field.
Atraxa, Praetors' Voice
Atraxa's deck is a superfriends strategy, with the aim of getting as many planeswalkers on the field and using Atraxa's proliferate ability to quickly get them to their ultimate abilities.

Gameplay Summary
The game had a promising start with all players setting up their boards and advancing their strategies.
Cameron (Tormod/Kodama) synergized heavily with landfall and graveyard strategies, creating an infinite combo with Kodama and a bounce land.
Ethan (Daretti) built up his board with artifacts, eventually leading to an 'All Is Dust' play.
Chandler (Atraxa) focused on proliferating his planeswalkers, with a significant play being the casting of Elspeth, Sun's Champion and Ugin, the Ineffable.
Shelby (Marchesa) played around with Marchesa's ability to get creatures back.
However, a key turning point was when Chandler cast 'Merciless Eviction', exiling all artifacts on the field, disrupting Ethan's setup.
The game ended before the final outcome could be determined.
