Acererak vs Breya vs Vadrik vs Alesha [ EDH/Commander, Magic The Gathering Gameplay ] 2022

The game began with all four players developing their boards and setting up their respective strategies.

Vadrik, Astral Archmage focused on manipulating the day/night cycle to generate counters and reduce the cost of instants and sorceries, aiming to combo with cards like Reiterate and Jessica's Will to cast massive spells.

Acererak, Archlich worked on dungeon crawling and assembling combos involving cards like Demon's Horn and Aetherflux Reservoir to generate infinite casts and lethal damage.

Breya, Etherium Shaper aimed to assemble artifact combos, leveraging cards like Astral Altar and Thopter Assembly along with various artifact synergies to generate infinite damage or value.

Alesha, Who Smiles at Death played a Mardu value and sacrifice deck that aimed to grind out advantages through recurring creatures and exploiting sacrifice outlets for incremental gains and combos. Key turning points included Acererak setting up Demon's Horn early to begin dungeon crawling, Breya milling crucial artifacts such as Astral Altar to enable combos, and Vadrik casting spells like Pirates' Pillage and Solving the Equation to dig deeper for combo pieces.

Alesha's deck focused on establishing board presence and leveraging free sacrifice outlets to create value.

The game showcased multiple combo paths, with Acererak and Breya aggressively pushing infinite artifact and spell combos, while Vadrik pursued a storm-like win condition with repeated spells.

The gameplay revolved around managing these threats, timing board wipes, and protecting combo pieces.

The game ended before all combos could be fully realized on camera, but it was clear that the game revolved around artifact and spell combos as well as grindy value plays from Alesha's deck. .
