Gameplay Summary

The gameplay showcased a high-powered, fast-paced cEDH multiplayer game featuring four distinct decks led by Anje Falkenrath, Sisay Weatherlight Captain, Selvala Heart of the Wilds, and Lord Windgrace.

Early game developments saw each player setting up their mana bases and initial plays, with Anje quickly establishing her madness engine to filter through her deck.

Ryan, piloting Anje, executed a devastating combo involving Worldgorger Dragon and Necromancy on turn two, creating an infinite loop to repeatedly cast Alms of the Vein, draining opponents' life and stabilizing himself, ultimately winning the game swiftly.

This explosive turn was the major turning point, demonstrating the power of Anje's madness synergy combined with the Worldgorger Dragon loop. After the first game, the group reshuffled for a second match where John brought back Lord Windgrace with a land-focused strategy, Cruz returned with Sisay Weatherlight Captain aiming for toolbox combos, Ryan again piloted Anje, and Zack switched to a Niv-Mizzet Parun control deck.

The opening sequences involved setting up ramp and mana acceleration including Jeweled Lotus and Lion's Eye Diamond.

Ryan's Dockside Extortionist generated treasure tokens fueling Anje's combo potential.

The game was still in its early stages at the transcript cutoff, but the players demonstrated typical cEDH strategies: explosive ramp, tutoring, and fast combo assembly in a multiplayer environment.
