Summary

The game features four players piloting upgraded Modern Horizons 3 preconstructed decks with commanders, each reflecting a Modern archetype. Esmond plays Omo, Queen of Vesuva, focusing on putting 'everything counters' on lands and creatures, granting them all land and creature types. Early on, Esmond establishes a strong board presence by turning lands into all land types and creatures into all creature types, leveraging the synergies with cards like Aven Courier and Yavimaya's Will to maximize counters and utility. Matthewโ€™s Satya, Aetherflux Genius deck relies on energy generation and copying creatures like Inspired Inventor and Experimental to create multiple attackers and gain tempo, demonstrated by his attack on Gabriel with multiple creatures and energy synergy. Paul, playing Disa the Restless, utilizes Jund strategies centered around Tarmogoyfs and combat damage, while Gabrielโ€™s Ulalek deck capitalizes on devoid and graveyard synergies with surveil lands and cards like Black Market Connections to fuel his board state and resources. The game features strategic land plays that maximize synergy, such as making all lands into gates to untap creatures like Sage of the Maze and using 'everything counters' to expand creature and land types, enabling versatile interactions. Combat phases include targeted attacks to spread damage and maximize triggers, with key plays revolving around counters and energy management, setting up complex board states.
