Deck & Commander Strategies
Mirko, Obsessive Theorist
The strategy for Mirko was to use surveil to grow his commander and transform the graveyard into a toolbox. By deducing opponents' plans and controlling the board, the aim was to crack the game wide open.
Voja, Jaws of the Conclave
Voja's strategy was to celebrate the bond between the Elves and the Wolves with a deck full of each, then unleash Voja for power and card draw. With the right sequencing, the game could quickly tip in Voja's favor.
Teysa, Opulent Oligarch
Teysa's game plan was to tax each opponent for some of their life total each turn to start a clue-making engine. The aim was to use sacrifice outlets and aristocrats to drain opponents' life totals.
The Pride of Hull Clade
The Pride aimed to field a deck full of cheap and evasive creatures with high toughness. By turning that toughness into card draw and finding a way to flip defense into a game-ending offense, victory was within reach.
