Gameplay Insights

• 1

  Clavileño's ability to turn vampires into demons and create tokens was pivotal for sustaining board presence and offsetting life loss from Oathbreaker Light rules.

• 2

  Grenzo's no-instant, no-sorcery build slowed his early game but aimed for a late-game infinite combo, requiring patience and careful timing.

• 3

  Tetsuo's use of equipment like Hammer of Nazahn and Sword of Vengeance quickly increased offensive threat, forcing opponents to respond aggressively.

• 4

  The group’s decision to use Run Away Together to bounce both Tetsuo and Clavileño's commanders disrupted their momentum and slowed down their strategies.

• 5

  Players carefully managed life loss every turn due to the Oathbreaker Light rule, influencing attack and defense decisions throughout the game.
