Gameplay Summary

The game featured a high-level cEDH multiplayer battle among four players piloting distinct and competitive decks.

Early turns revolved around setting up stax elements and disruption, with Oswald Fiddlebender building a stax board to slow the game while using his ability to break parity and maintain pressure.

Tymna and Kamahl focused on a winconless stax and combat-based strategy, aiming to grind opponents down through attrition and combat damage.

Chulane’s deck sought to leverage creature combos with Cloudstone Curio and Intruder Alarm to generate value and infinite interactions, while Najeela aimed for a fast aggressive win with combat damage and infinite combo potential.

Key turning points included the deployment of powerful stax pieces like Opposition Agent and Metalworker, which were promptly met with targeted removal such as Abrupt Decay to disrupt momentum.

Oswald’s artifact recursion and sacrifice engine allowed him to regain board presence and continue applying pressure despite disruption.

Meanwhile, Najeela’s hasty warriors and combat triggers began to chip away at opponents’ life totals, signaling an impending aggressive push.

The interaction between stax lock pieces and combo engines created a tense back-and-forth tempo shift, with players carefully navigating both resource denial and combo assembly.

The game unfolded as a dynamic contest between stax disruption and combo aggression, with victory hinging on executing a successful combo or overwhelming the opponents through combat damage once the stax locks were circumvented or dismantled.
