Summary

This cEDH game featured four powerful decks battling in a fast-paced environment. Early turns saw aggressive mana acceleration and setup plays from all players, with rapid land drops and key artifact and enchantment plays. A pivotal moment arose when one player assembled an infinite combo involving Cauldron Familiar, Warrens Soul Trader, and Gormok's Talent, which turned all treasures into food tokens and enabled infinite sacrifice and recursion of creatures. This combo allowed the player to gain infinite life while opponents lost life continuously, securing a swift and decisive victory. The game was notable for the players' in-depth discussion to understand the combo mechanics before the win was confirmed, highlighting the complexity and interaction depth typical of cEDH.
