    The players prioritized early mana acceleration and board presence, with artifact ramp and land drops facilitating faster meld attempts.

    Myrel's ability to lock opponents out from casting spells or activating abilities during her turn significantly slowed down enemy responses to her growing army.

    Urza's combo with Sensei's Divining Top and Aetherflux Reservoir, enabled by cost reduction, created a powerful engine for drawing cards and dealing damage, pressuring opponents to disrupt his setup quickly.

  • 4

    Titania's meld triggered a large elemental that replenished lands from the graveyard, creating a powerful and resilient threat that demanded immediate answers.

  • 5
