Gameplay Summary

The game featured four distinct Commander decks, each leveraging unique strategies around their commanders.

Urza, Chief Artificer, piloted a powerful artifact-based strategy aiming to generate value through artifact synergies and eventually overwhelm opponents with artifact-powered threats.

Atraxa, Praetors' Voice, focused on an infect and proliferate game plan to poison opponents quickly by stacking poison counters rather than traditional damage.

Obeka, Brute Chronologist, employed a dragon tribal deck utilizing the ability to end opponents' turns early, disrupting their plans and accelerating their own board presence.

Lord of Tresserhorn likely played a control or graveyard-centered strategy given the commander's typical build, although detailed gameplay about this deck was limited in the video. Key turning points included Atraxa's aggressive application of infect counters combined with proliferate effects, putting pressure on opponents to answer quickly or succumb to poison damage.

Obeka's unique mechanic of ending turns early provided tempo swings and disruption, creating tension around timing and sequencing.

Urza's artifact synergy made the board state increasingly difficult to handle as threats and mana accelerants accumulated.

The game unfolded as a dynamic contest of tempo, disruption, and alternative win conditions, with infect and artifact combos being prominent threats.

The interplay between these strategies created multiple critical moments where players had to adjust their tactics to survive and find openings to secure victory.
