Gameplay Summary

The game began with a typical multiplayer EDH setup where each player developed their board state incrementally.

Scott piloting Yuriko aggressively pushed damage early through unblockable ninjas and commander jutsu interactions, dealing significant damage and leveraging Yuriko's ability to reveal high-impact spells.

Adam on Tymna focused on artifact synergies, utilizing equipment like Lightning Greaves and Battle Axe to boost his creatures and repeatedly swinging with Kiri, Line-Slinger.

Peter on Yeva built a ramp and toolbox strategy, using creatures like Fierce Empath and tutors to find key creatures and ramp spells.

The narrator’s Krenko deck aimed to flood the board with goblins and leverage sacrifice outlets such as Goblin Bombardment for incremental control and damage. Key turning points included Adam’s use of Mirrodin’s Mirage Mirror to copy powerful creatures like Yuriko and Fassa, enabling him to create unblockable attackers and leverage multiple equipment.

Scott’s aggressive Yuriko swings combined with spells like Part the Waterveil granted him extra turns and significant damage output.

Peter’s ramp and control tools kept the board in check, but Adam’s repeated swings with Kiri grew overwhelming, especially after equipping multiple artifacts and making creatures unblockable.

The game concluded with Adam leveraging his massive board presence and equipment to eliminate Scott, showcasing the power of artifact synergies and combat tricks in Mardu colors.
