Rhystic Studies Returns! | Sidar Jabari vs Cromat vs Feldon vs Samut w/ LRRMTG | EDHijinks Ep 171

Deck & Commander Strategies

• 

  Cromat

  This deck seemed to be built as a group hug deck, with cards like Veteran Explorer and Heartwood Storyteller aimed at benefiting all players, likely setting up for a big finish.

• 

  Sidar Jabari of Zhalfir

  The deck appears to be a knight tribal strategy, aiming to flood the board with knights and use Sidar Jabari's ability to recur them from the graveyard.

• 

  Feldon of the Third Path

  The deck appears to be an artifact-based strategy, utilizing Feldon's ability to reanimate artifact creatures from the graveyard.

• 

  Samut, the Driving Force

  The game plan for this deck wasn't entirely clear from the transcript, but it seems to be a combat-focused deck, potentially with a vehicle subtheme.
