Gameplay Summary
The Duel Commander match featured Feldon, Ronom Excavator, facing off against Atraxa, Grand Unifier in a best-of-three series.
Feldon’s deck focused on recurring powerful artifacts and creatures from the graveyard to create sustained board presence and value, while Atraxa utilized proliferate synergies and a strong suite of counters and planeswalkers to accelerate her board state.
Over the three games, Feldon leveraged his graveyard recursion to repeatedly cast impactful threats, pressuring Atraxa’s life total and board control.
Atraxa responded by building board resilience through counters and removal spells, aiming to stabilize and slowly overwhelm with incremental advantage.
The key turning points involved Feldon assembling multiple recursion loops and artifact synergies, while Atraxa sought to disrupt with removal and gain incremental advantage through proliferate triggers.
Ultimately, the match showcased a dynamic interplay between graveyard recursion tempo and counter-based board control with Feldon narrowly securing victory through relentless board development and graveyard value.
