Gameplay Summary
The game features an Archenemy Commander format with Marina Vendrell as the Archenemy facing off against three opponents piloting Aminatou, Veil Piercer; Rip, Spawn Hunter; and The Swarmweaver.
Marina leverages the new 'rooms' and 'Eerie' mechanics from the Duskmourn set, focusing on unlocking rooms to gain powerful effects and creating a haunted house atmosphere.
The Archenemy’s strategy revolves around board control through stun counters and leveraging the unique room enchantments to disrupt opponents' actions. On the opposing side, Aminatou builds around enchantment synergy and Miracle mechanics with curses to weaken the Archenemy and hinder their board.
Rip focuses on playing humans with survival abilities, aiming to outlast and control the board through creature resilience and tactical play.
The Swarmweaver capitalizes on spiders and insects, utilizing delirium to boost creatures with +1/+1 counters and death touch, generating tokens and pressure.
Key moments include Aminatou using enchantment cost reduction and fear of sleep paralysis to tap down threats, and the Swarmweaver deploying House Cartographer for card advantage and to trigger survival.
The game features back-and-forth control plays, including stun counters preventing untapping, token generation, and manipulation of graveyards for delirium, setting up a dynamic board state without a clear immediate winner by the point covered.
