Wheeler on cEDH: Thanks for having me it's great to be here! | Magda VS Jetmir VS Pako/Haldan VS Zur

Deck Strategies

• 

  Jetmir, Nexus of Revels

  The strategy for this deck is to maintain a large number of creatures on the board to maximize Jetmir's abilities, with the ultimate goal of having nine or more creatures to attack with boosted power and double strike.

• 

  Magda, Brazen Outlaw

  This deck relies on playing dwarves and generating treasures to either combo kill opponents or lock them out of the game. The deck has numerous lines and can go infinite with several different card combinations.

• 

  Zur the Enchanter

  The Zur the Enchanter deck falls in and out of favor depending on the meta, but in this game, the strategy was to ramp early and use Zur's attack trigger to fetch key enchantments like Necropotence.

• 

  Pako, Arcane Retriever and Haldan, Avid Arcanist

  This deck aims to be aggressive, using Pako to attack early and often. While there are combos in the deck, the primary focus is on dealing damage directly with Pako.

Gameplay Insights

Summary

The gameplay started off with high energy as the players set up their initial board states. Jan, playing Pako and Haldan, attempted an early aggressive strategy, casting Pako in the second turn. This play was immediately disrupted by Eliot's Path to Exile, removing Pako from the field. This early interaction set the tone for the match, with players making careful decisions to maintain control of the board. Eliot, who played Zur the Enchanter, was able to establish his board state with early ramp spells and artifacts. Ben, playing Magda, Brazen Outlaw, took advantage of his commander's ability to generate treasures and used a combination of dwarves and artifacts to maintain a presence on the board. Bill, playing Jetmir, Nexus of Revels, had a slower start but eventually gained momentum.
