Summary

The game started with fast mana acceleration from all players, leading to early deployment of powerful commanders and key pieces. David quickly established a strong board presence with Thrasios and Tevesh, using Tevesh's ability to generate card advantage and create Thrull tokens, while Rodrigo focused on a stax-oriented Tymna and Ardenn build, leveraging Skullclamp and equipment to draw cards and control the board. Michael's Krark and Silas list capitalized on treasure generation and spell recursion, casting multiple Entombs and leveraging Krark's trigger to assemble a combo-centric graveyard setup. Baal's Yeva deck aimed for a draw-and-grow strategy but struggled with mana issues early, limiting his impact.
