Summary

The game began with all four commanders setting up their strategies early. Vraska, the Silencer, focused on controlling the board by turning opponents’ creatures into treasures and then stealing them, creating a constricting presence. Gisa, the Hellraiser, built up an aggressive zombie and skeleton token army by repeatedly committing crimes and leveraging her synergy with sacrifice effects. Stella Lee, Wild Card, aimed to generate value through casting multiple spells per turn, exiling cards to play later and copying spells to create overwhelming storm-like turns. Kambal, Profiteering Mayor, capitalized on token generation to create life drain effects, punishing opponents as tokens flooded the battlefield and generating incremental advantage with token copies.
