Summary

The game featured a high-powered multiplayer EDH match with five commanders: Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy; Thrasios, Triton Hero paired with Bruse Tarl, Boorish Herder; Jodah, the Unifier; and Shorikai, Genesis Engine. Early turns saw players focusing on ramping mana through artifact and land plays, such as Basalt Monolith and Forbidden Orchard, to accelerate into their key combos. Kinnan and Thrasios/Bruse decks aimed to generate large amounts of mana and treasure tokens, setting up infinite mana combos and card draw synergies. Interaction was heavy, with counterspells and removal spells slowing down the pace, but the tempo favored the decks with faster combo setups. A pivotal moment occurred when Kinnan managed to assemble infinite mana using Devoted Druid and untap synergies, while Thrasios/Bruse leveraged cascade and treasure token generation for explosive turns. Meanwhile, Shorikai contributed with value engines and spirit tokens to maintain board presence and control. Jodah played a five-color goodstuff/control role, casting powerful spells and controlling the board state, while also attempting to find a win condition through powerful multicolor spells. The game progressed with players carefully navigating around each other's threats and counterspells until Kinnan ultimately secured the win by executing an infinite mana combo and overwhelming the table with a decisive attack or combo finish.
