cEDH IS GETTING BETTER! TWO GAMES WITH REVERSALWIZRD

Deck Strategies

• 

  Kenrith, the Returned King

  Utilizes various card advantage engines and mana ramp. Also features combo potential, but can be hampered by cards like Collector Ouphe.

• 

  Pako, Arcane Retriever // Haldan, Avid Arcanist

• 

  Etali, Primal Conqueror // Etali, Primal Sickness

  Seeks to generate value and control the board by casting spells for free from the top of players' libraries.

• 

  Najeela, the Blade-Blossom

  Aggressively generates tokens and benefits from various combats, but can be a target due to its threatening board presence.

Summary

The game starts with three players having a Gemstone Caverns in play, giving them a fast start. The match features multiple game-changing moments, including a Drannith Magistrate shutting down Commander plays, and Reversalwizrd's Paco, Arcane Retriever, being a significant threat on the board. However, the Paco is swapped for Nate's Najeela, the Blade-Blossom via Gilded Drake, leading to an intense tug of war for board control. Meanwhile, Dylan's Kenrith, the Returned King, is generating significant card advantage, but the presence of a Collector Ouphe shuts off many of his potential win conditions.
