Gameplay Summary
The game featured four powerful commanders duking it out with intricate combos and interaction.
Early turns saw players develop their board states and mana bases while deploying threats like Grim Monolith, Opposition Agent, and various utility creatures.
The K'rrik player aggressively grew their board with plus-one counters and life payment synergies, utilizing cards like Flesh Ripper and Necropotence for card advantage and board presence.
Meanwhile, Malcolm/Tana built incremental value through generating treasures and drawing cards, aiming to assemble a combo with Glen Elendra Buccaneer or value engines like Birthing Pod.
