Summary

The game featured a dynamic Infect and proliferate battle with four commanders focused on poison counters and combat damage. Early turns saw players developing their boards with lands and Infect creatures like Ink-Moth Nexus and Phyrexian Mites, steadily applying poison counters to opponents. Solphim, Mayhem Dominus amplified non-combat damage, escalating tension. Ixhel, Scion of Atraxa, and Vishgraz, the Doomhive, brought strong token generation and proliferate effects to the table, increasing poison counters and board presence. A critical turning point occurred when a board wipe from White Sun's Twilight cleared most creatures except newly created tokens, resetting the board and forcing strategic reassessment. Scott’s Blinkmoth Nexus equipped with Bone Sabers aggressively finished off Busterkins with infect damage, showcasing a lethal combo of counters and combat damage. Meanwhile, Vishgraz’s ability to create Phyrexian Mites and grow with poison counters made it a formidable threat. Despite some disruption and counter plays, the Infect and proliferate strategy prevailed, ending with lethal poison commander damage and careful management of equipment and board state.
