The game featured a fast-paced cEDH pod with four players piloting powerful commanders. Early turns saw rapid mana acceleration with cards like Lotus, Mana Crypt, and Dark Ritual enabling explosive starts. One player established a loop with Tevesh Szat and a Technomancer that generated infinite treasures, setting up a strong resource advantage.
