Summary

Bruvac’s deck focused on milling opponents by playing persistent Petitioners and leveraging Thrumming Stone to exponentially increase the number of cards milled each time. Early on, Pako and Haldan’s deck ramped up by casting artifacts like Mox Diamond and utilized Pako’s ability to exile cards and grow larger through +1/+1 counters, swinging aggressively to reduce opponents' life totals. Breya’s strategy revolved around generating infinite mana combos and dealing incremental damage through artifact synergies, while Zur aimed to tutor and deploy impactful enchantments quickly to control the board and outvalue opponents.
