Summary

The game began with each player ramping and setting up their board states with artifact mana, lands, and key creatures like Malcolm and Grim Monolith. Early turns involved efficient plays such as casting Viri Go of Storytelling and setting up Wishclaw Talisman interactions. As the game progressed, players jockeyed for advantage with artifact lands and mana rocks, aiming to assemble combo pieces and control the board. A critical turning point occurred when Rhetoric, piloting a deck with Glint-Horn Buccaneer, leveraged the discard ability to trigger damage to all players while also generating treasures via Malcolm's ability. This interaction created a lethal loop where opponents were forced to discard and take damage simultaneously, culminating in a precise lethal before any player could draw from an empty library. The game ended with Rhetoric successfully executing this combo sequence, demonstrating the power of synergy between discard triggers, damage, and treasure generation in a cEDH environment.
