Gameplay Insights

  • 1

    The early use of Alms Collector to shut down the Wheel of Fortune cast by Lord Windgrace was a critical disruption that slowed the ramp and draw advantage.

  • 2

    Casting Elesh Norn twice to apply the -2/-2 effect repeatedly was pivotal in controlling the board and killing key creatures like Lord Windgrace and his tokens.

  • 3

    Lord Windgraceโ€™s use of World Shaper to bring back multiple lands after a board wipe helped stabilize his position and recover from land destruction.

  • 4

    Ravages of War was used to destroy all lands, a powerful land destruction play that set back all players but was mitigated by Lord Windgraceโ€™s recursion capabilities.

  • 5

    The interaction between hatebears like Kataki, War's Wage and multiple artifact and mana acceleration pieces created a taxing environment that limited opponents' plays.

  • 6

    Torpor Orb was deployed to prevent problematic enter-the-battlefield effects, demonstrating layered disruption in the Elesh Norn deck.

Summary

The game started with all four players setting up their respective board states and early plays that showcased their deck strategies. Lord Windgrace established a strong land base with ramp and recursion elements, casting Titania and eventually World Shaper to bring lands back from the graveyard. Elesh Norn's player focused on hatebear creatures like Sworn Canonist and Alms Collector to disrupt opponents, eventually casting Elesh Norn herself to control the board with a minus two minus two effect on opponents' creatures. The Akroma/Tana deck aimed to buff tokens and creatures with keywords and used hatebears and Chromatic Lantern synergy to build incremental advantage. Tymna/Sakashima utilized stax elements like Rule of Law to slow the game down and grind value with draw engines like Dark Confidant.
