Gameplay Summary

The game featured a dynamic and explosive cEDH meta with four powerful commanders competing for control.

Mike, piloting Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow, aimed to leverage extra turns and ninjutsu triggers to chip away at opponents while assembling a lock with God-Eternal Kefnet and Jace, the Mind Sculptor.

Ryan on Godo, Bandit Warlord, aggressively sought to assemble Helm of the Host combos for infinite combat phases but was disrupted early by timely removal.

Garrett’s Yisan, the Wanderer Bard deck focused on toolbox flexibility but was hampered by a curse and board pressure.

Folger piloted a Tymna/Ikra Ad Nauseam combo deck that capitalized on life gain and a massive draw to execute a sudden and devastating Ad Nauseam, clearing the board and winning with a lethal Sickening Dreams after protecting himself with Angel's Grace.
