Gameplay Summary

The game was a Duel Commander match pitting a Feldon, Ronom Excavator deck against a Sidar Kondo of Jamuraa and Kraum, Ludevic's Opus partner deck.

Early turns saw both players developing their boards cautiously, with Feldon focusing on reanimating key creatures from the graveyard to generate incremental value.

Sidar and Kraum leveraged their synergy to ramp and apply pressure with evasive threats, aiming to capitalize on combat damage triggers and card draw from Kraum.

The pivotal moment arose when Feldon successfully recurred a powerful creature, shifting the tempo in his favor and enabling a strong board presence that was difficult for Sidar/Kraum to answer.

From there, Feldon's deck methodically dismantled the opposition by using repeated creature recursion and attrition, ultimately securing the win through sustained value and combat dominance.
