Deck Strategies

• 

  Edgar Markov

  This deck aims to swarm the board with vampires, leveraging tribal synergies and life drain effects, such as those from Blood Artist. It can also try to control the board via creature removal.

• 

  Vaevictis Asmadi, the Dire

  This deck aims to ramp quickly, play high-value dragons, and use Vaevictis Asmadi's ability to cheat in additional threats. Radha, Heart of Keld can provide extra card advantage by playing lands from the top of the deck.

• 

  Charix, the Raging Isle

  This deck aims to control the board and slowly build up an army of crustaceans. Retreat to Coralhelm can be used for utility and control, while Skittering Crustacean can become a significant threat.

• 

  Mangara, the Diplomat

  This deck seeks to capitalize on opponents' actions. Mangara can draw cards when opponents cast multiple spells or attack with multiple creatures, while Soul's Attendant can gain life as more creatures enter the battlefield.

Summary

The game kicked off with no significant early-game threats, giving each player time to set up their boards. Carlos, piloting Vaevictis Asmadi, the Dire, was the first to present a potential threat with Radha, Heart of Keld and a couple of mana rocks. Voxy, commanding Charix, the Raging Isle, started to amass an army of crabs with Skittering Crustacean, while aiming to control the field with Retreat to Coralhelm. Meanwhile, Mental Misplay's Mangara, the Diplomat was equipped with Swiftfoot Boots and played a Soul's Attendant to capitalize on creature plays. The Edgar Markov player laid down Dracula, the Voyager and a Blood Artist, indicating a vampire tribal strategy with a focus on creature death triggers.
