MTG Commander Gameplay | Ayli | Tevesh/Thrasios | Alena/Kamahl | Mishra | Magic: The Gathering EDH

The game featured a high-powered four-player Commander match with distinct strategies clashing on the battlefield.

Tarren piloted the Simic combo deck centered around Tevesh Szat, Doom of Fools and Thrasios, Triton Hero, aiming to assemble the Doomsday combo for a swift, game-ending play.

Beef utilized an Orzhov lifegain and reanimator synergy deck with Ayli, Eternal Pilgrim, focusing on incremental life gain and persistence through removal and value engines.

Gunga ran a Gruul big mana and trample heavy deck led by Alena, Kessig Trapper and Kamahl, Heart of Krosa, which sought to ramp quickly and deliver lethal combat damage in bursts.

Quiet played a Grixis artifact combo deck with Mishra, Eminent One, leveraging artifact duplication and grindy combo elements to generate value and control the game state. Early turns showed ramp and setup plays, with Tarren establishing board presence using Tevesh Szat's token creation and mana acceleration, while Beef developed a defensive posture with life gain and removal options.

Gunga steadily ramped into large threats, preparing for a big swing turn, and Quiet focused on artifact synergies and combos to generate incremental advantage.

A pivotal moment occurred when Tarren cast Tevesh Szat and began setting up Doomsday, signaling an imminent combo threat that put pressure on all opponents.

Meanwhile, Beef’s lifegain and removal kept the board in check, attempting to outlast the explosive combo plays.

Gunga’s Gruul deck aimed to capitalize on a window of opportunity to overwhelm the table with trample damage, while Quiet’s artifact-based grind and combo provided a resilient alternative win condition.

The match was a dynamic balance of combo setup, life gain stabilization, and raw power plays, with each player navigating threats and tempo shifts carefully.
