Summary

The game featured four distinct Capenna commanders battling in a multiplayer Commander match. Max piloted Kitt Kanto, Mayhem Diva, leveraging token generation and treasure production through cards like Prosperous Partnership and Kazul, Tyrant of the Cliffs. Felix played Kamiz, Obscura Oculus, focusing on evasion and incremental damage using creatures like Drana, Liberator of Malakir, Chasm Skulker, and repeatedly copying powerful creatures via Stolen Identity. Marie's Ziatora, the Incinerator deck utilized haste enablers and damage doubling effects, exemplified by her Niath, Devourer of the Dead and Arnie, Brokenbow combo to deal massive damage and generate treasures. Jalbao's Cormela, Glamour Thief deck played a slower game with artifact ramp and card advantage, casting value creatures like Archmage Emeritus and using disruption spells such as Make an Example. Early phases saw token generation and board development with Prosperous Partnership and Kamiz's unblockable creatures applying pressure. A pivotal moment was Marie's Niath doubling its power and then using Ziatora's sacrifice trigger to deal 18 damage to Max, significantly lowering his life total. Felix capitalized on evasive creatures and repeated Stolen Identity copies to maintain pressure and card draw. Max attempted to stabilize with Wood Elves and token production but remained vulnerable due to low life. The game progressed with continuous incremental damage, token interactions, and strategic use of goading and conniving triggers, emphasizing the importance of creature synergies and resource management. Ultimately, the aggressive damage and sacrifice mechanics from Ziatora combined with Kamiz's evasive assaults dictated the flow of the game.
