Summary

This commander game was a high-octane battle that featured Skullbriar, the Walking Grave, Niv-Mizzet, Parun, Slicer, Hired Muscle, and Tayam, Luminous Enigma. The early game was dominated by Slicer player setting up an aggressive board state and quickly casting Slicer. However, Niv-Mizzet player disrupted the game, tactically using a Lightning Bolt on Slicer, which brought about an immediate shift in the game's tempo. Despite Skullbriar's attempt to establish board presence with a slew of creatures, Niv-Mizzet's control mechanics kept the other decks in check. The game concluded before any of the players could execute their win conditions, leaving us speculating about the decks' full potential.
