Summary

The game featured a dynamic four-player Commander match with Samut, Voice of Dissent; Magda, Brazen Outlaw; Chandra, Fire of Kaladesh // Chandra, Roaring Flame; and Breya, Etherium Shaper. Early gameplay saw players establishing their board states with key mana accelerants, artifact vehicles, and protective enchantments like Spider Garden. One player, piloting a red-heavy deck, aggressively deployed Goblin Welder and Paradise Mantle to quickly develop their board and generate treasure tokens for ramp and card advantage. Another player leveraged green ramp and utility creatures to maintain pressure, while Chandra's deck applied direct damage and control elements to chip away at opponents. Interaction included tactical damage spells, selective blocking, and resource management to balance aggression and defense. The table adopted a light-hearted 'choose violence' approach, leading to a fast-paced and spicy game.
