Deck Strategies

  • Kolvori, God of Kinship // The Ringhart Crest

    Kolvori, God of Kinship

    This deck aims to take advantage of the strengths of green, particularly in mana ramping and legendary creatures. The deck uses cards like 'Three Visits' and 'Cultivate' to ramp up quickly and then leverages the power of legendary creatures to overwhelm opponents.

  • Tergrid, God of Fright // Tergrid's Lantern

    Tergrid, God of Fright

    This deck focuses on creating a group slug dynamic, forcing opponents to discard cards and sacrifice permanents, which are then taken control of by Tergrid. The deck aims to gain advantage early in the game to avoid being targeted by opponents.

  • Egon, God of Death // Throne of Death

    Egon, God of Death

    The Egon deck operates on a dual strategy of self-mill and Voltron. It uses cards to self-mill, filling the graveyard for Egon to exile and stay on the field while also equipping Egon with powerful equipment to deal damage.

  • Alrund, God of the Cosmos // Hakka, Whispering Raven

    Alrund, God of the Cosmos

    This deck relies on manipulating hand size to bolster Alrund's power. The deck includes traditional blue strategies such as card draw, counter magic, and bounce effects. The ultimate goal is to land a powerful hit with a large Alrund, possibly achieving a one-shot kill.

Summary

The match began with a swift ramp up phase, with each player building their mana base and establishing their board presence. Justin, piloting Kolvori, God of Kinship, quickly capitalized on his green deck's strength, ramping up with 'Three Visits' and 'Cultivate'. Meanwhile, Jeremy, using Egon, God of Death, established a notable presence with 'Coldsteel Heart'. Stephen, with Alrund, God of the Cosmos, and Jonanthan, with Tergrid, God of Fright, also set up their respective strategies, with Stephen focusing on hand size manipulation via 'Primal Amulet' and Jonanthan setting up his sacrifice and discard mechanisms. The game heated up with several back-and-forths, leading to a tense competition. The win condition was ultimately achieved by a well-timed combo, but the transcript did not provide sufficient details to determine the exact winner and how it was achieved.
