Deck & Commander Strategies
Jeska, Thrice Reborn
Aggressively deals damage with double strike and can be used as a combo enabler through damage triggers and red-based burn spells.
Tymna the Weaver
Leverages card draw from combat damage to opponents while supporting a midrange or aggressive strategy with efficient creatures and disruption.
Omnath, Locus of All
Utilizes landfall triggers and multicolor spells to generate value and control the board with ramp and elemental synergies.
Curie, Emergent Intelligence
Focuses on drawing multiple cards through artifact interactions and incremental advantage, often setting up combos or control elements.
Magda, Brazen Outlaw
Builds around creating treasures and artifact synergies to generate infinite mana and combos using artifact recursion and haste enablers to close out games quickly.
Gameplay Insights
- 1
Using Magda's ability to sacrifice treasures repeatedly to tutor and bring artifacts into play enabled a powerful infinite mana combo.
- 2
The combination of Roaming Throne untapping artifacts and Clock of Omens allowed infinite untaps, amplifying resource generation.
- 3
Welder and Sculpting Steel interactions with haste artifacts allowed for repeated untapping and control swapping despite legendary rules.
- 4
The sequencing of artifact sacrifice, recursion, and haste grants was critical to establishing the infinite loop and delivering lethal damage.

Gameplay Summary
The game began with players developing their boards with early mana rocks and card draw engines.
Initial turns were fairly standard, with each player setting up their resources and attempting to gain incremental advantages.
A key turning point came when the Magda player executed a complex infinite combo involving artifacts like Roaming Throne, Clock of Omens, and Treasure Vault, which allowed them to generate infinite mana and infinite treasure tokens.
Using the haste granted by Welder and artifact interactions including Sculpting Steel and Twinshot, Magda was able to repeatedly untap their mana sources and deal lethal damage to all opponents, closing out the game decisively.
The infinite loop was visually impressive and showcased the power of artifact synergies and combo lines in cEDH.
