Gameplay Summary

The game features a four-player cEDH match with powerful commanders including Mishra, Eminent One, Dargo, the Shipwrecker, and a Thrasios & Bruse Tarl team.

The gameplay begins with typical early mana development and minor skirmishes involving artifact tokens generated by Mishra's eminent one, swinging early damage at opponents and pressuring life totals.

The Thrasios & Bruse player focuses on ramping and controlling the board state, leveraging Fresius activations to dig through their large land-focused deck.

Despite some early mana struggles, they eventually stabilize by assembling mana accelerants like Lotus Cobra and Tireless Provisioner to enable continuous Fresius activations. Throughout the midgame, players jockey for position with Mishra aggressively creating artifact tokens and attacking, while the Thrasios & Bruse deck uses card draw and land synergy to build resources.

The Dargo and Tymna/Kraum players add to the dynamic with their own board presence and interaction.

Key moments include Mishra's repeated token creation and attacks reducing opponents' life totals, and the Fresius player carefully managing activations to filter through the deck and maintain pressure.

Spells like Force of Negation and Pyroblast are used tactically to control threats.

The game progresses slowly with careful resource management, and the Fresius deck looks to eventually dominate by leveraging its unique activation mechanic to outvalue opponents and establish a winning board state.
