Deck Strategies

• 

  Anowon, the Ruin Thief

  Anowon's strategy revolves around deploying unblockable creatures and hitting opponents for consistent, if minor, damage. It likely aims to leverage mill and card draw mechanics.

• 

  Galea, Kindler of Hope

  Galea's strategy is a classic Voltron approach, focusing on equipping a single creature with auras and equipment to make it a substantial threat.

• 

  Wilhelt, the Rotcleaver

  Wilhelt's strategy appears to be building a horde of zombies while also adding value artifacts to the battlefield. The deck likely aims to generate card advantage and overwhelm opponents with undead tokens.

• 

  Muxus, Goblin Grandee

  Muxus' strategy revolves around swarming the field with goblins, reducing their casting cost, and using them to deal damage and control the board.

Summary

The game opens with a flurry of action as each player deploys their commanders and starts building their strategies. The goblin-themed deck led by Muxus, Goblin Grandee, played by Jim Davis, puts on an early show of force. Jim deploys a Goblin Warchief and Foundry Street Denizen, followed by a Sparksmith, using it to remove key threats from the board. Anowon, the Ruin Thief, played by AliasV, puts forth a consistent unblockable threat, hitting Jim for minor, but consistent damage. Galea, Kindler of Hope, played by Taalia Vess, starts building a Voltron strategy, deploying several auras and equipment.
